Saudi police close a street leading to a non-Muslim cemetery in the Saudi city of Jeddah where a blast struck a World War I commemoration attended by European diplomats on 11 November 2020

Several people have been injured following what has been reported as a "grenade attack" at a Remembrance Day ceremony at a non-Muslim cemetery in the Saudi Arabian port city of Jeddah.

France's Foreign Ministry described a "bomb attack" targeting World War I commemorations which were attended by European expats and diplomats, including French, British and Greek officials.

"The annual ceremony commemorating the end of World War I at the non-Muslim cemetery in Jeddah, attended by several consulates, including that of France, was the target of an IED attack this morning, which injured several people," a ministry spokesperson said, adding that "France strongly condemns this cowardly, unjustifiable attack"

Victim of UK 'spycop' tells of his predatory behaviour she was subjected to at just 19

As part of UK police operations to infiltrate activist groups they dubiously deemed 'extremist', undercover cops tricked women into relationships. One such 'spycop' even wrote a how-to guide - and remains a public figure.

In May 2017, it was revealed Andy Coles, Cambridgeshire's Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner, was a former undercover operative in elite national security policing unit the Special Demonstration Squad, and had under the guise of 'Andy Davey' infiltrated animal rights and anti-war campaign groups in London from 1991 - 1995.

At an Undercover Policing Inquiry (UCPI) hearing 9 November, Phillippa Kaufmann QC mentioned Coles in a statement, which documented in shocking detail the stories of 21 separate women all deceived into long-term romantic relationships by undercover police.

First shot across the bow: Georgia announces 'full hand recount' and 'AUDIT' of votes in 2020 election

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger announced Wednesday morning that there will be an audit and full hand recount of votes in the state for the 2020 presidential election. Currently, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden leads President Donald Trump in the Peach State by about 14,000 votes.

"Georgia's secretary of state has announced a full hand recount of the presidential race; Biden leads by about 14,000," reported Zeke Miller, citing The Associated Press.

"This will help build confidence. It will be an audit, a recount and a recanvas all at once," Raffensperger said at the press conference, according to CBS News. "It will be a heavy lift."

Decision Desk HQ called Alaska for Trump earlier on Wednesday morning, awarding him the state's three electoral votes. And on Tuesday, the outlet called North Carolina for the president, as well, earning POTUS another 15 electoral votes.

Comment: If this flips Georgia for Trump, he's halfway there.

It will obliterate in one fell swoop the MSM's stance that no voter fraud took place (or that insufficient fraud took place to win it for Biden), and likely open the gates for several more swing states to be properly 'called' for Trump.

Medical tyranny: UK 'nudge unit' proposes wristbands for those who test Covid negative

People in the UK who test negative for coronavirus should be given a wristband to help them identify themselves as Covid-free, a government advisory body has recommended.

Allowing citizens who display the wristband to move around more freely would help the country recover more quickly, according to the Behavioural Insights Team (BIT) — the government-backed company known as the "nudge unit".

In a new report, BIT said Boris Johnson's government could learn lessons from Slovakia, where everyone who tests negative is given a paper certificate allowing them to escape restrictions.

The nudge unit said the UK could build on Slovakia's success by giving out paper wristbands as well as certificates to allow for "easier recognition of whether they can enter venues".

Around 3.6 million people in Slovakia were tested for Covid-19 during a single weekend as part of a major mass testing drive — allowing the authorities to identify over 38,000 new positive cases and ask them to quarantine.

Puerto Rico: 180 boxes of uncounted ballots found after election

Boxes of uncounted ballots have turned up in different parts of Puerto Rico a week after its Nov. 3 election run alongside the U.S. election, according to a report. At least 180 boxes of votes from all over the island have been found, election officials said Tuesday, the Miami Herald reported.

"We don't know exactly how much is in there," Roberto Iván Aponte, the electoral commissioner of the Puerto Rican Independence Party, said, according to the Herald. The Absentee and Early Vote Administrative Board is now in possession of the ballots, he said.

The Puerto Rico State Elections Commission said the problem happened because of the higher number of voters casting their ballots by mail - more than 227,000.

"If it had been a smaller amount, it would have been carried out without any problem, because on Election Day there was no problem. The big problem is how this early voting issue was handled."

Nicolás Gautier, the electoral commissioner of the Popular Democratic Party, said, "I'm not leaving here until I fix this mess that just happened so it doesn't happen again in the future."

Comment: Puerto Ricans are voting on statehood. However, this election is one more example of how voting regulations are not met with adherence to protocol, and outcomes are only as true as the mechanisms and diligence applied.

There's no pleasing Megan Rapinoe! Even when she gets 'social justice', it's a 'disgrace' it didn't come quick enough

Megan Rapinoe has taken a swing at Manchester United, calling the Premier League club a 'disgrace' for not investing in there women's team earlier

Virtue-signaller supreme Megan Rapinoe has taken her latest socially-woke swing at men's football for... investing in women's football, calling it a "disgrace" it didn't come sooner, while being unaware that it actually had.

You have to hand it to US Women's National Team captain Megan Rapinoe. Holding the world to ransom for everything you stamp your feet on the ground for in the name of 'progressiveness', and then complaining when it doesn't come quick enough, is a clever and crafty hustle that has worked perfectly thus far.

And now, Rapinoe has received exactly what meets her never-ending demands with the creation and investment in professional women's teams by major European clubs, but the self-appointed saint of soccer social justice still moans it should have come sooner, despite not being aware it already had.

While riding the woke wave that has washed over sports in recent years, Rapinoe has managed to wring out every last tenuous stand that could be made for social justice on the sporting stage, even when it logically does not add up, something which has become a staple of the two-time World Cup winner's off-field persona.

The latest target of Rapinoe's perennial progressive protest is English Premier League club Manchester United. Their crime against the Rapinoe crusade? Creating, carefully constructing and heavily investing in a successful and sustainable professional women's football team that were crowned FA Women's Championship champions in their very first year of existence.

Media: Voter fraud is common....um, no impossible! Russia! Russia! Russia

vote stickers 2020 election fraud trump biden

I'm working on more analysis which will appear soon.

The media can't make up its mind. Not about Trump, whom they loathe because the man called them out for what they are. They can't bear their power, which is real and devastating, being challenged. No, it's not Trump they're indecisive about. They can't keep their story straight about voting fraud.

For nearly four years the media declared that voting fraud was perpetrated by Russia on the behalf of Trump. The election was stolen! There was fraud! This fraud was certain, beyond all doubt, and anybody who didn't agree was a bad person. We were told this again and again, then again some more.

True, the media never said exactly how this fraud was supposed to have been worked. Did Russia send a cruise ship full of Boris and Natashas, adept at disguises, to infiltrate polling places and pull levers for Trump? Did the KGB send out mind control waves (via satellites?) to discourage voting for Hillary? Did Putin threaten to cease sending his country's best players to the NHL unless Democrat Governors "accidentally" lost Hillary's mail in votes?

We'll never know, because the media never said. But it had to be something. They insisted on it. Fraud was pervasive. No polling location was spared.

Voting fraud, the media implied, was easy. And common.

And we believed them — as we should. They are the media! Guardians of our democracy! Noble, selfless beings who only have our best interests at heart. They would never lie, hyperventilate, exaggerate, or omit.

Right?

So 'coloured' is racist but 'people of colour' isn't? The woke speech police strike again to claim another victim

FA Chairman Greg Clarke poses for photographers as he arrives on the occasion of the 43rd UEFA congress in Rome, Thursday, Feb. 7, 2019.

The chairman of the English FA Greg Clarke has been forced to resign following a vicious online shaming after a slip of the tongue in a discussion on racism. The ego-driven zealots who forced him out have lost the plot completely.

Society is in a precarious position. Baying mobs want to create offence or exaggerate any if given the chance.

This is evidenced by the 'outrage' which has led to the forced resignation of the Chairman of England's Football Association, Greg Clarke.

Appearing in front of the UK government's Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) select committee, he discussed how footballers endure insults and attacks online. He said: "If I look at what happens to high-profile female footballers, high-profile coloured footballers and the abuse they take on social media ... they take absolutely terrible abuse."

That was the sentence that cost him his livelihood - because of the term "coloured".

One of the committee, Kevin Brennan, the Labour MP for Cardiff West, spotted a chance to create a scandal, as he asked, "I think I heard you refer to coloured people earlier on; if that's the case, would you want to withdraw that language?"

Comment: This should be a lesson to everyone who bends the knee and pushes for further restrictions on speech and acceptable ideas. There is no protection against accidentally saying the wrong word in the wrong way, and no one is above being hung, drawn, and quartered by the Woke mob.

Danish PM apologizes after illegal cull order of entire mink population over Covid outbreaks

The decision to cull Denmark's entire population of mink after a mutated strain of Covid-19 was found to have no legal basis, the country's prime minister has admitted, days after ordering the move to hinder its spread to humans.

PM Mette Frederiksen last week ordered the culling of the country's 15-17 million-strong mink population, after the World Health Organization (WHO) said it was looking into reports that the virus was jumping from animals to people.

"Even if we were in a rush, it should have been completely clear to us that new legislation was required, and it was not. I apologize for that," Frederiksen told parliament on Tuesday.

For one, there is no.... time .....like the present.....so stop killing it ;)
