Free Republic

Iran said on Saturday (Oct 18) that it was no longer bound by restrictions on its nuclear programme as a landmark 10-year deal between it and world powers expired, though Tehran reiterated its "commitment to diplomacy". The 2015 deal - signed in Vienna by Iran, China, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and the United States - saw the lifting of international sanctions against the Islamic republic in exchange for restrictions on its nuclear programme. But the pact had already been in tatters after Washington unilaterally withdrew during President Donald Trump's first term, with Iran later pulling back from its commitment. The...

Two 14-year-old boys targeted one of their victims, 15, on Snapchat before luring her to an underpass where they laughed and filmed themselves as they raped her. Two months later the pair, this time joined by a third boy aged just 13, gang-raped a second schoolgirl at knifepoint while again recording the attack on their phones as they goaded each other to degrade her further. The trio - all from the traveller community - were convicted of rape in March following a five-week trial, with the two older boys also found guilty of taking indecent images of a child, relating...

I'll bet you know the name George Floyd. He couldn't breathe. I'll bet you don't know the name Henry Nowak. He couldn't breathe either. Henry Nowak was an 18-year-old first-year university student at the University of Southampton (studying Accountancy and Finance), originally from Chafford Hundred, Essex. He was fatally stabbed on December 3, 2025, while walking home from a night out with friends in the Portswood area of Southampton, England. What happened to Henry was no less tragic or horrible. Henry was the victim of a stabbing attack by a crazed Sikh, but after being stabbed, Henry was put in...

INTRODUCTION On April 29, 2026, Sen. Bernie Sanders convened a 75-minute panel in the US Capitol on “the existential threat of AI.” Two of the four panelists were Chinese government affiliates: Zeng Yi, Dean of the Beijing Institute of AI Safety and Governance, and Xue Lan, a Tsinghua University professor who chairs China’s national AI governance expert committee and serves as a Counsellor of the State Council of the People’s Republic of China. From a US Senate platform, Xue called the US-China AI race “an inaccurate narrative” and argued for “safe zones” of cooperation on AI safety. The event was...

AWESOME!..........Kier Starmer better leave for exile in Uruguay................

Anthony Seldon has written biographies of each of the last eight British prime ministers. When he embarked on the project in the 1990s, the work was mammoth but measured. Then, the occupants of 10 Downing Street would spend several years in office, allowing him to scrutinize his subjects properly as they each stamped themselves on their times. But Seldon now risks being overtaken by events. After the recent churn of leaders under the previous Conservative government, which saw the party cycle through three leaders in one year, Seldon had hoped that Keir Starmer’s victory in 2024 would herald a return...

Great Britain saved my family from Nazism. On the eve of World War II, many countries, including the United States, still limited Jewish immigration. But in July 1939, my grandparents were able to flee Germany for England. They settled in London, and two years later, my mother was born. Eight years after that, they emigrated to the United States. The family they left behind died in Hitler’s death camps. Most European Jews were unable to escape — in part, it must be pointed out, because of British policy. Many of them would have gladly taken refuge in Palestine, then a...

Great Britain, traditionally considered the anchor of western civilization, is facing an incomprehensibly tragic fate, determined to replace its people and commit cultural suicide. Great Britain once commanded respect worldwide as the irreplaceable anchor of Western civilization. Its institutions—rooted in the Magna Carta’s covenant of liberties, the common law’s impartiality, the Enlightenment’s rational skepticism, and the parliamentary democracy that exported freedom across continents—embodied the West’s highest aspirations: individual autonomy, secular governance, equality before the law, and the unyielding defense of conscience. Yet these foundations are now being dismantled. In earlier times, this would have taken a military invasion or revolution....

"A truly historic shift in British politics"

Nurseries in Wales have been instructed to report incidents of toddlers engaging in “racist” behaviour to the police in accordance to taxpayer-funded guidelines backed by the Welsh Labour-run British government. The guidelines are reported to contain a extensive list of instructions for childcare workers to respond to “racist incidents” involving babies, toddlers, and children bellow the age of 12 and assess if an event would constitute a “hate crime” before reporting the case to the British police. It is stated the instructions’ ultimate goals is to turn childcare centres into “anti-racist” environments in accordance to a series of woke initiatives...

THE home of one of “Britain’s first gay dads” has been raided by cops as part of a probe into rape and human trafficking allegations. Officers swooped on reality TV star Barrie Drewitt-Barlow’s Essex mansion as part of the ongoing investigation.

Police cars and forensic teams could be seen lining the driveway and the country road leading up to the lavish pad near Danbury. Essex Police said two suspects were arrested on suspicion of rape, human trafficking for sexual...

It’s been more than a week since Sean Egan, a manager at Morrisons in Aldridge, announced that he’d been sacked just for doing his job – for stopping a thief nicking booze – and national outrage over the whole affair is still running high. Sean is on morning TV as I write, donations to pay for his appeal rising steadily. In part, the fuss is a measure of sympathy. Sean worked at Morrisons for 29 years and was liked by the people of Aldridge. He was sacked, the supermarket says, because it has a ‘deter, don’t detain’ policy – though...

British Imperial Expert: The Force Behind King Charles, Iran & Every War Since 1900 | PBD #788 Susan Kokinda of Prometheian Action joins Patrick Bet-David to expose what nobody is saying - Trump's war with Iran is actually a 200-year war against the British Empire. In this interview she breaks down how the City of London has been charging Americans a hidden terror tax on every gallon of gas, why Trump's Iran blockade is really about destroying Britain's 300-year oil monopoly, how British Intelligence engineered the MAGA civil war through Tucker Carlson and Qatar's billions, why Mueller prosecuted LaRouche for...

" Karl Marx Was On The British Payroll"- Imperial Expert EXPOSES The Communist History Britain Buried Run Time 14 m 54 s .Susan Kokinda explains how Lyndon LaRouche shaped her worldview, teaching her to look past media narratives and study the hidden financial systems, power structures, and historical forces behind world events.

Angela Rayner is reportedly considering a leadership challenge against Keir Starmer immediately after the local elections. Supporters are said to be urging the former Deputy Prime Minister to turn against Sir Keir The local elections, which take place next Thursday, are understood to be make-or-break for the Prime Minister, as his premiership hangs in the balance.

Okay. It's Friday. Let's end on an absolutely hilarious note. Emmanuel Macron. This twee, tiny tyrant has spent the better part of two days LARPing as if he were someone from a country that meant something a long, long time ago, royally entertaining an equally ineffectual non-entity as himself, all while playing Age of Empires for the cameras at his fancy office. With hugs, kisses, and much clasping of hands, the two main co-conspirators got together to try to take over the world, much as Pinky and the Brain used to do every Saturday. Considering they would have as much...

The United Kingdom is on a trajectory toward slow-motion collapse. British Prime Minister Kier Starmer’s initial reaction to the outbreak of the war against Iran was schizophrenic. He seemed wholly unprepared for a scenario in which Donald Trump would actually use the forces he had spent the previous two months flooding into the region, confounding the former Royal Navy officers and opposition lawmakers who somehow understood that Trump’s ultimatums weren’t just talk. At first, Starmer was appalled, and he blocked the Pentagon from using U.K. bases to launch sorties against Iranian targets. But the impracticality of that protest sapped his...

"Oh, to be in England, now that April's there," Robert Browning wrote nearly two centuries ago in Home Thoughts from Abroad, but this April, Britons might pine for the riches of... Mississippi?Yes, Mississippi, if they take just a brief gander at the new Institute of Economic Affairs report on the comparative wealth between Britain, American states, and Britons' sad delusions about where they stand. According to the IEA, ask the typical Brit where his country ranks, income-wise, if it were a state. And the typical answer is "Seventh place."Not quite, old chap. The sad fact is that if Britain were...
