The police have lost it

Spectator11-05-2025

When hyper-liberal identity politics went into overdrive in that year of madness, 2020, one of the greatest casualties in this country was to be our police forces. This wasn't obvious at the time, although officers 'taking the knee' at the foot of Black Lives Matters protestors hinted at things to come, as did their growing inclination to attend Pride events and adorn their vehicles in LGBT+ colours. Only in recent months, however, has there emerged the extent to which our police have become contaminated and compromised by this ideology.
As today's Sunday Telegraph reveals, in November 2023 officers from Kent Police arrested and detained an old man for a social media post he made warning about the threat of anti-Semitism in Britain.

Uganda sees economy growing at least 7% in 2025/26 fiscal year

KAMPALA, June 12 (Reuters) - Uganda's economy will grow at least 7% in the fiscal year starting in July, Finance Minister Matia Kasaija said on Thursday in a budget speech. Uganda is poised to start pumping crude oil next year, and the International Monetary Fund predicts revenues from crude sales could lift its economic growth rate into double digits. The World Bank has said it is resuming funding to Uganda, nearly two years after the global lender suspended new financing in response to an anti-LGBT law that imposes penalties including death and life imprisonment.
