Read what happened when an Extinction Rebellion meeting was disrupted by a protester. Seems they can give it out but have no intention of putting up with it themselves.

Are the Grooming Gangs a Muslim Phenomenon? Fri Nov 21, 2025 15:00 | Mark Durie
First they were 'Asian' grooming gangs, then 'Pakistani'. But the most important thing to grasp is that almost all of them ? 87% of convictions ? are Muslim, says Mark Durie. This must not be covered up.

• Garry Trudeau has been getting some heat for his Doonesbury cartoon claiming the Bush supervised torture of his Frat Boy comrades in college:
'Was this past Sunday's "Doonesbury" -- which had George W. Bush defending the burning of Yale University fraternity initiates with a brand in 1967 -- fact or fiction?
"Totally fact-based," replied Garry Trudeau...'

• Past is Prologue, as they say.
Doonesbury
Irish Foreign Minister Dermot Ahern will seek assurances from Washington that US planes using Shannon airport have not been carrying CIA terror suspects when he meets with US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Thursday.
Who is the Irish Minister Dermot or Condoleezza Good, Oh thats right it is Dermot who's the Foreign affairs
spokesperson in his own country shame what a Republican ha
End all occupation of Ireland N S E W
yesterday it was reported that Jack Straw had !!quizzed!! the CIA over the allegations.
The UK heads the EU at the moment so on behalf of the EU it is indeed the UK's job _till december 31_ to do this. Then (aren't we all glad) the responsibility will pass to Italy.
However, the matter was not raised first as an EU one. And many of the "plaintiff" states are not EU members. The most interesting investigation / line of complaints comes from the Council of Europe. Though it overlaps with the EU it is not the same institution. For on thing its larger, and for the other it is the legal instrumental base for our common charters and commitments to human rights. The Swiss senator Dick Marty has the responsibility there.
& the matter doesn't end there, because several of the "plaintiff" countries have seen internal legal processes begun. The Spanish legal team still continue with their work, despite assurances from the central government that "nothing illegal has occured", that process can not be stopped by the executive, and the Canary islands have yet to finalise their "local government" case which they have brought themselves.
So The CIA aren't getting off so easily! LOL
In fact of course they are. They are coming out of this squeeky squeeky clean. I saw a cartoon last week sums it up, "investigate me if you can". All the same the satellite imagery from the European observation centre (based in spain) has been sub-poened by the council of Europe to verify allegations on the black sea coast placement of "prisons" and others no the Polish / Bylerussian frontier.
