UK accepting migrant asylum claims at far higher rates than EU nations
Immigration drove Brexit, yet crooked politicians refused to govern responsibly and take back control of their country. Even the shortest-tenured UK prime minister ever, Liz Truss, pulled a bait-and-switch, promising to stop illegal migration before she took office, while after becoming Prime Minister, she declared “migration is good for growth.” Now she has quit, after […]
UK: Fake Conservative Liz Truss quits after party revolt, makes history as shortest serving prime minister ever
After a disastrous six-week tenure that saw a virtual revolt within her own party, Liz Truss has done everyone a favor and quit.

UK: Liz Truss walks back vow to ‘lead as a conservative,’ heads to Prague with ‘our European friends’
Britain’s new Prime Minister Liz Truss promises to lead as a conservative, but will she really? It was a valid question to ponder at the beginning of her tenure as prime minister in early September.

On August 18, I posted a piece about her views, which included this: British […]
In the UK, Liz Truss Considers a Possible Embassy Move to Jerusalem
Things are looking up for Israel among U.K. politicians. First, the new leader of the Labour Party, Keir Starmer, suspended, and then expelled, from the Labour Party, the determinedly anti-Israel Jeremy Corbyn, who had led the party for five years, during which he tolerated, and even encouraged, antisemitism in the ranks. Corbyn is now well […]
UK: Tory leadership debate ignores immigration, crime and free speech
The most critical issues to the effective functioning of any democracy were ignored in the UK Tory leadership debate: immigration (which drove Brexit), the freedom of speech (the cornerstone of democracy) and the rule of law. Economics and international engagement were the central focuses, and were subject to heated argument. These are indeed important issues, […]
