A source close to the Mission Impossible star, 63, said he left his £35million pad because he felt the star-studded location had 'declined' recently. A terrifying robbery of the Rolex store near Cruise's building last week saw attackers on motorbikes ram into the shop and swing machetes at brave security guards who tried to stop them. The thugs entered the Bucherer with a large sledge hammer, two small claw hammers and a centre point tool used for smashing thick glass. Around 20 watches were robbed in the broad daylight raid last week which went on for three terrifying minutes before...

Sir Keir Starmer recently tried to take credit for his role in Donald Trump’s partial climbdown on tariffs relating to Greenland. Whether he played any meaningful part is debatable. What is beyond doubt, however, is that Donald Trump will happily reach for the tariff weapon again whenever it suits him. Even against long-standing allies, and especially against those he believes are acting against US interests. Just look at Canada and the increasingly heated rivalry between Trump and the country’s prime minister, Mark Carney. The president last week threatened eye-watering tariffs of 100pc on all goods and services entering the US....

What Is 'Pathways' And Who Is Amelia?

Amelia was created by Woke Government in the UK for a game brainwashing young people to accept the takeover of their island. Amelia was the purple haired girlfriend who encouraged "bad choices". Now, AI has transformed Amelia into a beautiful symbol of resistance.

Keir Starmer has said Donald Trump’s decision to impose 10% tariffs on the UK and seven other European countries over Greenland was “completely wrong”. The US president said the levies would apply from 1 February to Nato members – including the UK, France and Germany – who have deployed troops to the territory in response to growing uncertainty over its future. Trump said the tariffs would rise to 25% on 1 June if a deal to buy Greenland had not been reached. In a Truth Social post, Trump said: “Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and...

President Donald Trump is set to be briefed by top aides this week as he plots out the level of his response to the Iranian regime's brutal crackdown against citizen-led protests. Trump's top military and diplomatic staffers, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, and Joint Chiefs Chair Gen. Dan Caine, are anticipated to be present at the meeting, per the Wall Street Journal. The meeting comes as Trump is understood to be considering further US involvement in the region, but no final decisions are expected to emerge until after Tuesday's scheduled meeting. Putting U.S. troops'...

@RupertLowe10 It looks like Starmer is seriously considering a ban on X. I will protest against this on the streets of London. I hope you will all join me.

Europe's leaders boldly confronted Donald Trump on Tuesday night after his administration threatened to use the US military to seize Greenland. A joint statement from leaders including Sir Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron and Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni of Italy vowed to defend Greenland's 'territorial integrity' - following days of escalating tensions between the US and NATO ally Denmark. It comes as Trump and his top advisers explore plans including purchasing the Danish territory or taking charge of its defense, according to a senior administration official. The White House said that 'utilising the US military is always an option'...

Sir Keir Starmer is facing criticism for celebrating the return of a British democracy activist from detention in Egypt in light of his past social media posts. The Prime Minister said on Friday that he was “delighted” that Alaa Abd El-Fattah, who was released from prison in September after receiving a presidential pardon, had been reunited with his loved ones in the UK. The sentiment was echoed by Cabinet ministers including Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper and Justice Secretary David Lammy with similar posts. The Jewish Leadership Council, a charity which represents Jewish organisations across the UK, criticised the “effusive welcome”...

A group of Western and allied states issued a joint statement condemning the Israeli security cabinet’s approval of 19 new communities in Judea and Samaria, stating that the move was "part of a wider intensification of the settlement policies in the West Bank." The statement, issued by Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Iceland, Ireland, Japan, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, and the United Kingdom, described the decision as a unilateral action and claimed that such steps "not only violate international law but also risk fueling instability." According to the statement, the decision risks undermining "the implementation of the Comprehensive...

Israel has taken the controversial decision to recognise the breakaway state of Somaliland as an independent nation, sparking condemnation from many other countries. China is the latest to condemn the decision, with its foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian telling reporters: "No country should encourage or support other countries' internal separatist forces for its own selfish interests." China outlined its position ahead of the UN Security Council holding an emergency session to discuss Israel's decision. Israel on Friday became the first country in the world to acknowledge Somaliland as a standalone republic, more than 30 years after the region declared independence...

Jimmy Kimmel is an idiot. That's where we start. Kimmel, who has trouble finding the bottom of the outrage manure pile, was suspended back in September for making crass remarks about Charlie Kirk's murder: Jimmy Kimmel's late-night talk show was suspended indefinitely following the host's comments on the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.Walt Disney-owned ABC said on Wednesday, Sept. 17, that it will indefinitely stop airing "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" after the late-night host's comments about Kirk's assassination came under harsh criticism from the head of the Federal Communications Commission. "'Jimmy Kimmel Live' will be pre-empted indefinitely," a spokesperson...

The "public service" Channel 4 in the U.K. knew what it was getting when they asked Jimmy Kimmel to give their annual "Alternative Christmas Message" this year. It wasn't religious or charitable. It was like a monologue on his ABC show, except this time, as he mentioned being tyrannized by Trump's government this year, he made no mention of what it was he said. The name of Charlie Kirk or the motive of his assassin went unmentioned. Instead, Kimmel gave another false impression, like the notion Kirk's killer was MAGA. He suggested Trump took him off the air because he...

Jimmy Kimmel went on UK TV to whine about Trump and 'fascism' in America: "From a fascism perspective, this has been a really great year. Tyranny is booming over here." This clown is talking to a country where the government is IMPRISONING PEOPLE FOR SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS. He of course couldn’t help but finish by bashing Americans: "We are not bright. We're Americans."

The US comedian whose late-night show was briefly cancelled after pressure from Donald Trump’s government is to urge UK audiences to stand up for free speech. In a defiant alternative Christmas message on Channel 4, Jimmy Kimmel will liken the first year of Trump’s second administration to the rise of fascism. Sitting beside a cup of tea and a plate of biscuits, Kimmel will quip: “From a fascism perspective, this has been a really great year.” He is also expected to warn that press freedoms can be snuffed out quickly, and urge UK viewers to resist attacks on free speech....

Two men who swore allegiance to Islamic State have been found guilty of plotting to “kill as many Jewish people as they could”, in what detectives believe would have been the UK’s worst terror attack if it had not been thwarted. Walid Saadaoui, 38, and Amar Hussein, 52, were found guilty at Preston crown court on Tuesday of preparing acts of terrorism between 13 December 2023 and 9 May 2024. Jurors were told they were Islamist extremists with a “visceral dislike” of Jewish people. They planned a marauding attack in Greater Manchester, at the heart of one of Europe’s largest...

Professional protester Greta Thunberg was arrested Tuesday in Central London while part of a mass gathering backing the Palestine Action terrorist group. The 22-year-old Swede was detained as she expressed support for the proscribed organization. In a video shared by the Prisoners for Palestine protest group, Thunberg can be seen holding a sign reading “I support the Palestine Action prisoners. I oppose genocide” at the demonstration outside the central London offices of Aspen Insurance. Two activists sprayed red paint over the front of the building before police arrived and made arrests. Prisoners for Palestine said its protest had targeted the...

A total of 41,472 migrants arrived in the UK in 2025 after crossing the English Channel – the second highest annual figure on record. The Home Office confirmed on Thursday that no migrants made the journey on New Year’s Eve, continuing a run of no crossings over the festive period. It means the overall number of arrivals last year finished 9% below the all-time high of 45,774 in 2022. Reform UK leader Nigel Farage said Sir Keir Starmer’s plan to “smash the gangs” had been “a complete disaster” and the “one in, one out” deal with France is a “farce”....

Capping off UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s disastrous first full year in office, a poll from YouGov found that just over one in ten voters approve of his government’s performance. In its final approval survey for the year, YouGov found that only 12 per cent of the British voting public have a favourable opinion of the left-wing Labour Party government. In comparison, 68 per cent of voters disapprove of the government’s performance, while 20 per cent have no opinion. For context, the failed Tory government of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak also had a 12 per cent approval rating immediately...
