All mothers have sleepless nights. We lie awake worrying needlessly that our offspring may be in danger, but Nicky’s fears for her girls are not just fears. She believes she has very good reason to fret that her three daughters, and millions of other people’s children, are not safe. “To be honest with you, I think it’s inevitable that one day I will turn on the TV news and there will be some man I have granted asylum to and he will have raped or murdered a young girl, just like my girls.” Nicky, whose name I have changed to...

This is in part because the Qur’an tells Muslims that they are the “best of peoples” (3:110) and that the unbelievers are “the most vile of created beings” (98:6). The believers are the best of peoples precisely because they are “enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong” (also 3:110). So why should the best of peoples have any respect for the flawed laws of the most vile of created beings? “German government data shows 135,000 crimes by Syrian suspects since 2015 — one every 39 minutes,” by Thomas Brooke, Remix News, October 30, 2025: The German government has...

A French court on Friday sentenced an Algerian woman to life imprisonment without parole for raping, torturing and murdering a girl in Paris, making her the first woman to receive this maximum sentence. Dahbia Benkired was handed an “irreducible life sentence” for killing 12-year-old Lola Daviet in the French capital in 2022, in a case that horrified the country and sparked anti-immigration fervour because the woman did not have the right to be in France. The sentence is the harshest under the French penal code. “We believed in justice and we got it,” said Lola’s mother, Delphine Daviet, following the...

Outraged by accusations that an asylum-seeker had sexually assaulted a 10-year-old girl, thousands of flag-waving, bottle-throwing, firework-wielding Irish citizens surrounded a migrant hotel in southwest Dublin, Ireland on Tuesday night, setting fire to a police vehicle. Six people were arrested from a furious crowd estimated to have numbered approximately 2,000. The Irish police force — or “Gardai” — say they were on the receiving end of “sustained violence” that included glass bottles, bricks and fireworks. Despite the onslaught, a line of Gardai in riot gear were able to prevent the mob from reaching the hotel. Bringing the “torches and pitchforks”...

Sir Sadiq Khan has been accused of "turning a blind eye" to rape gangs in London after a new investigation claimed to find evidence of a "cover-up" in the capital. The investigation, conducted by The Daily Express and My London, revealed young girls had been raped in hotels by groups of men. However, Sir Sadiq was accused of ignoring concerns about grooming gangs operating in London following a spat with City Hall Conservative Susan Hall.

Dublin’s Mater Hospital recorded a 68% increase in knife-related injuries in its Emergency Department over the past five years, prompting calls from ED doctors for more measures to deal with the issue. The Irish Association of Emergency Medicine (IAEM) is calling for a focus on prevention and first aid skills, as well as equipment to deal with what it describes as a concerning and urgent issue across the country. Over the past decade, knife-related crime has been on the rise and while incidents dipped last year, knife injuries are now a regular issue for doctors in emergency departments. The IAEM...

Operatives have been discovered in Italy, Germany, Sweden and Denmark, and are working to obtain permanent residence permits. European leaders are drawing up plans for maintaining peace in the Middle East. But reports suggest they should be more concerned about the presence of extremists at home. Italian daily Libero Quotidiano warned on Thursday that “Hamas is already among us,” with an “armed, organised network ready to strike.” Giovanni Giacalone, who is an expert on terrorism and Islamic groups, also told il Giornale on Friday that while “it’s difficult to provide a precise estimate of how many Hamas supporters there are...

It sounds like a conspiracy theory—but every detail outlined about Britain’s gang crisis is real. For decades, gangs of predominantly Muslim men in towns across the UK have groomed, trafficked, and assaulted thousands of young girls while authorities looked the other way. Member of the Parliament of the United Kingdom Katie Lam joins “Problematic Women” to break down the shocking truth behind the UK grooming gang crisis, the systemic government cover-up, and why political leaders and law enforcement refused to act for fear of “inflaming community tensions.” Katie also shares her personal journey, from writing musicals and working in finance...

COPS have been called to nearly 300 sex attacks at Scots NHS sites in the last five years, shocking figures have revealed. They include an alleged rape at Princess Royal Maternity Hospital in Glasgow plus incidents at a sick kids unit and hospice.

Insiders admitted “real issues with safety” after The Scottish Sun last week revealed a 55-year-old healthcare assistant had been charged with sexual assault at Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley. One senior worker told...

At least 20 incidents linked to anti-migrant protests, racism and the far-right in the last two months have exposed rising political tensions across Scotland. They included attacks on mosques and asylum hotels, alleged assaults – and the jailing of a neo-Nazi for slashing a student in the face with a knife. The Ferret’s findings follow a terror attack in Manchester, when two men were killed at a synagogue on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. We documented the increased political violence in Scotland as the debate over immigration grows increasingly toxic and as the Israel-Gaza conflict continues....

As an over 50 year resident of California and a history buff, I've been intrigued how quickly the new State of California, at the end of a largely unpopulated and unsettled continent, built insane asylums to care for the mentally ill. The scale, breadth and scope of these institutions in California was incredible. Living in Silicon Valley, we are close to the Agnews State Hospital, one of the first mental hospitals in California. I find the history instructive because of the heinous murder of Iryna Zarutska by Decarlos Brown Jr. and President Trump's call for building new insane asylums. Below...

85 percent of women in Amsterdam avoid specific places in the city because they feel unsafe, AT5 reported after surveying over 2,100 Amsterdam residents.
