A new kid is on the block when it comes to candidates for the leadership of the Conservative Party and Prime Minister - Jacob Rees-Mogg. The super-posh backbencher, who prides himself on his 19th century manners and world view, has emerged as a serious contender.

A new survey of Tory Party members by the Conservative Home website has Brexit Secretary David Davis as favorite to take over from the hapless Theresa May, but Rees-Mogg, the MP for North East Somerset is the dark horse racing up on the outside.

A third of those who responded to the survey said "none of the above," when offered a list of Cabinet contenders including Home Secretary Amber Rudd and Chancellor Philip Hammond.

The vast majority of those picked Rees-Mogg as their choice and there is even a grassroots movement, dubbed Moggmentum in a dig at the Jeremy Corbyn-supporting Momentum movement, which is rooting for him.

Forced prostitution "could be happening on your street," the National Crime Agency (NCA) has warned, as it revealed modern slavery and human trafficking in the UK is far more prevalent than previously thought.

The NCA released figures on Thursday showing there are currently more than 300 live policing operations targeting modern slavery in the UK, with cases affecting "every large town and city in the country."

Modern slavery includes those who have been trafficked, held in forced labor, or criminally or sexually exploited. It said previous estimates that there were 10,000-13,000 victims in the UK were just the "tip of the iceberg."

"The more we look, the more we find," said William Kerr, the NCA's director of vulnerabilities.

"The growing body of evidence we are collecting points to the scale being far larger than anyone had previously thought. The intelligence we are gaining is showing that there are likely to be far more victims out there."

Matt Minnick is a small farmer in Portland who is now very upset after a Washington County Sheriff's Office Deputy shot and killed his top breeding goat Sunday morning.

Because of the new construction by Minnick's property, some damage was caused to a portion of his fence that his $1,200 prized New Zealand goat named Volt managed to escape through.

Volt was not some pit bull or rabid German Shepard - he was a goat.

Comment: "Aggression is a sign of weakness" - Putin.

A CIA whistleblower and ex-Marine Corps captain are among the outspoken leaders of a campaign to stop the US bombing of Syria before a "nuclear apocalypse" erupts out of the conflict with Russia.

The National Press Club in Washington, DC on Tuesday hosted a conference of five speakers opposed, morally and legally, to US intervention in Syria, especially the use of US warplanes and drones. Their presser centered around a petition addressed to Defense Secretary James Mattis and Congress.

Matthew Hoh, a former Marine captain who later became the top civilian representative in Zabul Province, Afghanistan, before resigning in 2009 in protest of former President Barack Obama's "surge" of the war there, warned that much more is at stake in Syria than simply violations of international law.

"We are on the brink with a war with Russia," Hoh said, noting that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had at least invited Russia's military into the country.

A highly disturbing Victoria's Secret-style lingerie show featuring 5-year-olds highlights the push to normalize pedophilia in the mainstream.

The latest movement within media and Hollywood pop culture is a distinctive agenda to normalize pedophilia and the sexualization of children. The latest example of this growing trend within mainstream media is a fashion show that many feel crossed the line from - with scantily clad girls, who appear to be as young as five-years-old, walking the runway in a Victoria's Secret-style show.

The show, held at a shopping mall in China, revealed shocking images of young girls wearing nothing but lingerie, costume wings, and headpieces. This comes on the heels of Kim Kardashian sparking controversy last month after she posted images of her new children's line, which included a bikini and lace slip dress.

"I'm not dressing my 4-yr-old daughter in a leopard n lace slip dress Kim Kardashian Kids Line," one disgruntled parent replied.

What you see talking place is simply the latest manifestation of what is, without question, a creeping agenda within the mainstream of pop culture to normalize and force public acceptance of pedophilia.

Two water districts in Sacramento, California are suing the US government for nearly one and a half billion dollars for groundwater cleanup. Plaintiffs claim heavy metals used by aircraft maintenance crews at the old McClellan Air Force Base have contaminated over 300 sites.

The lawsuits named the US Air Force and 10 major firms involved in supplying chromium products and chemicals to the base, and was filed by the Sacramento Suburban Water District and the Rio Linda Elverta Community Water District, according to the Sacramento Bee.

At contention is whether the cancer-causing chemical hexavalent chromium, or chromium 6, came from the base, which was designated a federal Superfund site in 1987 for 326 contaminated sites identified for cleanup.

"[T]hey knew or should have known that this harmful compound would reach groundwater, pollute drinking supplies, render drinking water unusable and unsafe, and threaten the public health and welfare," stated the complaint, which claims an underground storage tank "likely held" the chemical.

In the legendary Gogol's novel Dead Souls, a swindler buys on paper slaves who died after the latest census (therefore officially alive) in order to use them as a collateral to take a loan he has no intention of paying back. As we'll see, Groisman's government of Ukraine wrote a new version of the novel, this time taking down a whole country in their insane plan.

It's official: Ukraine doesn't count its emigration

Ukraine held its last census in 2001. At that time its population accounted 48,457,000 people. The official figures as on Jun 1, 2017 show a demographic disaster: 42,482,000, 6 million or 13% down in 16 years.
