A Rwandan national suspected of causing a major fire that ravaged the cathedral in the French city of Nantes last year murdered a Catholic priest in western France on Monday, the interior minister and a source close to the investigation said.

"All my support for the Catholics of our country after the dramatic murder of a priest in the Vendée region," French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin wrote on Twitter, saying he was heading to the scene.

A source close to the investigation, who asked not to be named, told the AFP that the suspect had earlier gone to police in the town of Mortagne-sur-Sevre and declared he had killed a priest.

Comment: This is yet another example of a migrant who was allowed to roam free in their host country, despite being known by the security services for their connection with criminality, only for them then to go on to commit an even more heinous crime:

BBC studios stormed by anti-Covid passport protesters in London, protestors clash with police

BBC's Television House in west London was targeted by an agitated group of protesters opposing the government's Covid-19 plans. The crowd attempted to break into the broadcaster's offices, causing clashes with police.

The dramatic confrontation at the entrance of the BBC studios has been filmed by witnesses at the scene. The footage showed a dozen or so Metropolitan Police officers rushing to stop the demonstrators, who appeared intent on forcing their way into the building.

Comment: Reportedly protesters were making their way from one media centre to another after requesting a debate, protestors claimed their requests were refused. Resistance GB managed to interview Piers Corbyn and asked him what he thought of the media outlets refusal to debate and for their contempt of science, he said:

"Well, it's the end of science if you can't have debate. I mean, democracy, the democratic process is required for science to operate once you end democracy you end debate and therefore ideas without measurement are imposed, that happened in Nazi Germany, that happened in Stalinsist Russia and that's what's happening now."

#FakePoos: Aussies fume after Victoria's premier concedes 'Covid in wastewater' used to justify statewide lockdown never existed

Australians are airing their grievances with Victoria Premier Dan Andrews after he admitted he cited non-existent coronavirus-tainted sewage in his decision to lock down the state.

Andrews announced a seven-day statewide shut down on August 5 in response to the "wastewater detection" of Covid-19 in Wangaratta, a rural city about 236km (147 miles) from Melbourne. The discovery creates the "potential that regional Victorians have been exposed to Covid-19," Andrews explained. The decision to widen restrictions to include the whole state was designed to "keep regional Victoria safe," the premier added.

The order means that, apart from emergencies and grocery shopping, Victoria's citizens are required to remain at home. Public gatherings are prohibited, with people only able to meet one person in their social circle. Educational institutions will also revert to online teaching.

But the reasoning behind the draconian statewide decree was soon rubbished by local officials. Andrews initially claimed the sewage test had "pinged" positive, then went negative before turning positive again. According to local media reports, his explanation didn't hold water. Less than 24 hours later, Wangaratta mayor Dean Rees challenged the premier's chain of events. There had been several successive tests returning negative results following one positive detection on July 30, regional health officials confirmed.

Comment: Even if it were true, "finding" covid in wastewater and going into lockdown because of it is a new low. Perhaps they'd care to test for other viruses and bacteria? Although, it is rather symbolic considering for the last one and half years, the whole covid narrative has been bullshit from the start. See also:

Florida will pay for parents to transfer kids to new schools if they become targets of 'Covid-19 harassment'

The emergency rule comes in response to Governor Ron DeSantis' executive order.

Florida will pay for parents to transfer their children to a new school if the students experience "Covid-19 harassment" over face mask requirements, according to a new rule from the Florida Board of Education.

Parents may apply for a voucher to transfer their kids to a private school in "instances where a child has been subjected to COVID-19 harassment." The state said it "will provide parents another means to protect the health and education of their child by moving their child to another school," according to the rule.

Councilwoman Tiesa Meskis and Don Sucher had a heated exchange of words over an offensive sign on Sucher’s store.

The owner of a Washington state Star Wars memorabilia store got caught on video having a shouting match with a transgender politician who confronted him over a sign in his window that said "If you are born with a d-k you are not a chick," according to a report.

Tiesa Meskis, a councilwoman in the town of Aberdeen, stormed into the Sucher & Sons Star Wars Shop and had words with owner Don Sucher on Wednesday over the handwritten message that he posted, according to King 5 TV.

"Trans women are women," Meskis can be seen yelling in the video as she stands face-to-face with Sucher.

France implements Macron's Covid pass despite protests

Protesters in the southern French city of Toulon rally against the health pass, on August 7, 2021.

France on Monday began enforcing a Covid pass championed by President Emmanuel Macron in cafes, restaurants and trains, a tightening of rules the government hopes will boost vaccinations but which has prompted weeks of angry protests.

The pass, already needed for the last three weeks to go to a cinema, attend a concert or visit a museum, will be needed to partake in usually routine aspects of life in France such as sipping a coffee in a cafe or travelling on an inter-city train.

Almost a quarter of a million rallied nationwide on Saturday against the extension of the pass, the biggest in four consecutive weekends of protests, but Macron has shown little patience with the demonstrators' concerns over vaccination or alleged erosion of civil liberties.

Devastating new data from PHE shows vaccine effectiveness down to 17% and no reduction in infectiousness - but mortality cut by 77%

Public Health England yesterday released their latest technical briefing on the variants of concern, number 20, and it has some illuminating data.

It provides us with the infection, hospitalisation and death rates for the Delta variant, broken down by vaccination status and age. This allows us to do a calculation of the real-world vaccine effectiveness in the over-50s during the Delta surge, albeit a rough one without any adjustments.

The latest report has data up to August 2nd. If we substract from these values the data in Briefing 17 (up to June 21st) then we get the data covering the period June 22nd to August 2nd, which broadly corresponds to the bulk of the Delta surge in the U.K. The vaccine rollout to the over-50s was basically complete by this point, having stabilised according to PHE at around 88% double vaccinated and 10% unvaccinated (the other two per cent remaining single vaccinated, perhaps due to a bad reaction to the first dose).

In this period the PHE data tells us there were 2,464 Delta cases in the unvaccinated over-50s and 17,926 in the fully vaccinated over-50s. From this we can estimate the vaccine effectiveness against infection in the over-50s during the Delta surge as 17% (1-[(17,926/88%)/(2,464/10%)]). This confirms using additional data the estimate I made last week.

Sadly, we are approaching a time in America during which our elected public officials will assault the liberties we have hired them to protect. Whatever the cause, the government will soon blame its failures to contain a virus on a small portion of the population and then impose restrictions on the inalienable rights of all of us.

We cannot permit this to happen again.

During the Civil War, when President Abraham Lincoln thought it expedient to silence those in the northern states who challenged his wartime decisions by incarcerating them in military prisons, he was rebuked afterward by a unanimous Supreme Court. The essence of the rebuke was that no matter the state of difficulties — whether war or pestilence — the Constitution protects our natural rights, and its provisions are to be upheld when they pinch as well as when they comfort, in good times and in bad.

Whether COVID-19 is coming back or not, our central planners have panicked. We do not have a free market in the U.S. in the delivery of health care; rather, we have thousands of pages of statutes, regulations and controls at the federal, state and local levels.

Those controls were revealed as manifestly deficient the last time around. The feds were so protective of their control of health care — an area of governance that the Supreme Court has ruled is nowhere delegated to them in the Constitution and, but for their power to tax those who defy them, is nonexistent — that they insisted that only the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta could be trusted to test for the virus.

Well over 230,000 protested against mandatory injections and coronavirus IDs in France on Saturday

More than 230,000 people took part in protests against sanitary passes throughout France on Saturday, 17,000 of which were in Paris, BFMTV reported citing the country's Interior Ministry.

Comment: Since the number in attendance is based on a statement from the Interior Ministry, we can be confident that the protests, now in their 4th consecutive week, were likely orders of magnitude larger. Based on organisers information and the footage coming out of even the smallest towns, some locals guesstimate that the number of protesters on Saturday was well over 2 million.

Some 237,000 people took to the streets in Paris and other French cities to protest against mandatory COVID-19 vaccination for the medical staff and sanitary passes, according to the news. The most numerous of the rallies, with about 17,000 participants, began at the Pont de Neuilly subway station in Paris after 13:00 local time (11:00 GMT).

Comment: Even though the Interior Ministry admits attendance numbers are growing with each week, the protesters are still largely being ignored by the establishment and misrepresented by the media (as was the case with the Europe-wide Yellow Vest movement) but, this Monday, firefighter and nurse unions intend to go on strike, declaring the mandatory vaccines and IDs to be "unconstitutional", which is likely to draw more attention to the issue.

Cuba legalizes small and medium enterprises in boost for private sector

FILE PHOTO: The Cuban government has approved a law authorizing the creation of small and medium enterprises (SMEs), a major shift in the communist-ruled country

The Cuban government on Friday approved a law authorizing the creation of small and medium enterprises (SMEs), a major shift in the communist-ruled country where state-owned companies are the norm.

The change comes nearly a month after thousands of Cubans flocked to the streets decrying dictatorship and complaining of hunger in the largest demonstrations since the revolution that brought the late Fidel Castro to power in 1959.

At least one person died and hundreds were arrested in the unusual mass protests, which the government claimed were provoked by the United States.

Comment: The claim has merit, because the US is infamous for utilizing protests as cover for regime change operations, moreover, Russia explicitly accused the US of doing just that: Russia accuses US of 'staging' anti-government protests in Cuba; Washington must now 'end hypocrisy' of economic blockade
