Two of Pc Andrew Harper’s killers are set to be released early from jail under Labour plans to tackle prison overcrowding.

Albert Bowers and Jessie Cole, who were jailed for 13 years in 2020 for the manslaughter of Harper, 28, are now eligible to be freed just halfway through their sentences under the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) early release scheme.

The pair, who were 17 at the time, in August 2019, were in the car that dragged Harper for more than a mile along country roads when his ankles got caught in a towrope loop.

Blogger: Labour - you have zero sense of justice and sicken me to my very core. You stand in a group laughing and mocking. I saw you on film and personally heard your churlish, evil banter!                                                            

Morally, YOU are not one jot better than these verminous  low lifes!

Most Disturbing! (But the left remain the major threat.)

Blasphemy laws that criminalise faith. ID laws that erase religious minorities. Girls abducted, forcibly converted, and married off to their abductors. These are the realities facing Christians and other religious minorities across South Asia. In our latest interview, Tehmina Arora, ADF International's Director of Advocacy for Asia, shines a light on this hidden crisis and the work being done to confront it.

WATCH THE INTERVIEW

ADF International has spent years advocating on these issues at both national and international level. From briefing MEPs at the EU, to hosting UN events, to testifying before the US Commission. We are beginning to see results. In February 2026, Punjab's Governor signed an ordinance raising the legal minimum age of marriage to 18, making child marriage a serious offence punishable by up to seven years in prison. It's a landmark step. But the work isn’t finished. Now we must push for better implementation of the law. Thank you for standing with us. With gratitude,  ADF International (UK)

Papua New Guinea Adds the Trinity to Its Constitution.

DANIEL SILLIMAN

And other news from Christians around the world.

Papua New Guinea is officially a Christian country. The preamble to its constitution has been amended to “acknowledge and declare God, the Father; Jesus Christ, the Son; and Holy Spirit, as our Creator and Sustainer of the entire universe and the source of our powers and authorities, delegated to the people and all persons within the geographical jurisdiction of Papua New Guinea.” Prime Minister James Marape, a Seventh-day Adventist, said Christianity is an essential anchor for the country’s national identity. Some Christian leaders there have expressed hope that the change will help bring national harmony and advance efforts to end violence and corruption. Others, such as Catholic bishop Giorgio Licini, warn it will likely lead to disillusionment. The constitutional change has not altered guarantees of religious freedom.

Marco Rubio’s blistering speech identified the rot undermining the west

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio addressing the political terrorism conference in Washington DC

This is an expanded version of my Times column (£) today

In twenty electrifying minutes last week, America’s Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, dragged into the spotlight a critical and yet largely unacknowledged factor behind the suicidal trajectory of the west.

His speech opened an international conference in Washington DC on “the resurgence of political terrorism”.

For the past quarter of a century, said Rubio, counter-terrorism had meant the fight against radical Islamist extremism. While that had been brought under a measure of control, the blind spot now was over terrorism by the far- left.

At the beginning of this month, he said, a 72-year-old woman in Greece was murdered by a firebomb in her apartment because her daughter had stood as a parliamentary candidate for the conservative New Democracy party.

In January, an arson attack on the Berlin power grid, reportedly by militant leftists, cut off power for tens of thousands over five days of freezing temperatures which left an 83 year-old woman dead.

One month later, a 23-year-old far-right French activist was beaten to death on the streets of Lyon by a group of far-left assailants.

As Rubio noted, the far-left dominated political violence for most of the modern era. The German Baader-Meinhof gang, the Italian Red Brigades terrorists, the Maoist fanatics of Peru’s Shining Path, the American Weather Underground and many others caused 93 per cent of terrorist attacks in the West between 1970 and 1980.

Now, far-left terrorism is again on the rise and is even more lethal in scale and scope.

In Germany, it jumped last year by more than 40 per cent. In Greece, more than 80 per cent of radical violence is now driven by far-left and anarchist groups.

A report last September by the US Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) said that 2025 was shaping up to be the American left’s most violent year in more than three decades...

Evil Quango Wants To Butcher Dartmoor Hill Wild Ponies!

The Disciples Only Fulfill Their Potential After The Resurrection.

Sonnet:

The quiet hill where late the Master stood,
Receives the cloud that takes Him from their sight;
Yet, looking up, they see the blossoming wood,
And dawn where they had feared the falling night.
No longer cowering in a locked, dim room,
But loosed like tongues of Pentecostal flame,
They burst the borders of the ancient tomb,
To speak the power of a saving Name.

From Judah’s streets to distant, winding shores,
Through paths untrod and empires cold and vast,
They break the bread and open wide the doors,
Redeeming all the sorrows of the past.
The seed is sown, the joyful sound takes wing;
Across the globe, ten thousand voices sing.

Philippians 2 - Jesus.

 9) Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name,

10) that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,

    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

11) and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Be Ready!

What's Happening In The UN?

 Dear Friends,

I was mid-sentence when they killed my microphone. Right there, inside the United Nations, in front of the world, my voice went dead. And with it, yours.

My crime? I stood before the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva on June 24, speaking for you and millions like you, and questioned whether Michelle Bachelet, the radical feminist frontrunner for UN Secretary-General, is fit to lead. The Chair called it a "personal attack" and erased it all with one click.

But they made a mistake. I recorded a video exposing exactly what they hid in that room, and they cannot censor the internet. If you share it, the truth breaks through their wall of silence.

Watch the Video & Share It to Break the Censorship

Don't let them have the last word. Pass this on to three people who refuse to be silenced.

And if you want to see the exact, raw moment they cut our microphone — the official UN footage — click here to watch it on YouTube.

Now let me show you the hypocrisy they hoped nobody would notice, Les.

• Spain took the floor to promote a woman for Secretary-General. Allowed.

• Minutes after I was silenced, North Macedonia did exactly the same. Allowed.

• A radical NGO used its speaking time to smear people who organize around "family and authority", people like you and me. Allowed! they even ran over their time limit.

The United Nations claims to defend freedom of expression.

But when a pro-life and pro-family voice challenged Michelle Bachelet's candidacy for UN Secretary-General, the microphone was cut off.

During my address to the UN Human Rights Council, I followed every procedure and submitted my statement in advance. Yet my speech was interrupted simply because it criticized a candidate who openly supports abortion, gender ideology, and policies

And what was the argument they couldn't bear to let the world hear? Just this: the United Nations doesn't need symbols; it needs leadership. It doesn't need a candidacy based on identity; it needs someone capable of uniting nations.

That's it. That's the "personal attack."

Les, understand what really happened in Geneva. I was carrying your voice into that room, the voice of every mother, father, and grandparent who refuses to let unelected bureaucrats decide what our children are taught and whether our laws protect life.

And the timing tells you everything. In a matter of days, by late July, the UN Security Council begins its secret "straw polls" to choose the next Secretary-General. 

Maybe you've never heard of "straw polls." Here's how it works: the 15 members of the Security Council receive secret ballots where they mark each candidate "encourage," "discourage," or "no opinion." No cameras. No records. No accountability. Round after round, candidates are quietly pushed out until only one name is left standing, and the General Assembly's "vote" in September simply rubber-stamps it.

Bureaucrats behind closed doors. No public debate. No vote you will ever cast. 

Once they settle on a name, the September vote in the General Assembly is a mere formality.

The next Secretary-General will control billions in UN funding and preside over the very summits where abortion is pushed into our countries' laws. 

Bachelet has already told us exactly what she would do: she claims abortion is "firmly rooted" in international human rights law.

That is who they are protecting from your scrutiny. 

This isn't just about one speech.

It's about whether pro-life and pro-family voices are allowed to be heard at the highest levels of the United Nations.

More than 180,000 people have already joined us in opposing Michelle Bachelet's nomination and demanding that the members of the Security Council veto her. 

They control the microphones in Geneva. They do not control your screen. Every single share rips a hole in their wall of silence, putting their hypocrisy right in front of the people they never wanted to reach. If this video stays on my page, they win. If you share it, the truth breaks through.

Watch the Video & Share It to Break the Censorship

If you want to see the exact moment they silenced us, click here to watch on YouTube instead.

But, in the middle of this outrage, I have powerful news of hope to share with you.

Your pressure is working.

Together, we have flooded the race with scrutiny they never expected. 

28 members of the U.S. Congress formally demanded a veto against Bachelet, calling her a "pro-abortion zealot." Chile, her own country,  withdrew her nomination, calling it "non-viable." 

They wanted a quiet coronation. Thanks to you, they're getting a battle.

And we are taking that battle to their doorstep. Right now, my team and I are preparing high-impact actions at the UN headquarters in New York, and face-to-face meetings with national delegates, demanding they pressure the Security Council to veto Bachelet in the straw polls.

I will walk into those rooms carrying your signature. Walk in with me by making sure the whole world has seen what they did in Geneva.

They bet everything on our silence. Let's prove them wrong. 

For our families and our freedom,

Rocío D'Angelo and the entire CitizenGO team

Starmer - APOLOGISE!

• Rowan Pelling

Every part of my life belies Starmer’s claim that he’s improved Britain.

No Keir, you didn’t leave the nation in a better shape than you found it – you left us even more moribund and hopeless than we were before.

Keir Starmer’s claims that he left Britain in better shape than he found it are in sharp, painful contrast to reality Credit: Simon Dawson/No 10

I’m arranging a little whip-round for Keir Starmer’s leaving present since, in the departing PM’s own words, he’s leaving this country “in a better shape than I found it”. Yup, instead of the ragged, non-ergonomic outline of the British Isles, nasally stifled bureaucrat Starmer has marshalled us into a functional hexagon! Hollow joking aside, the delusion of success conjured in Starmer’s departing speech isn’t much less absurd. Precisely zero people I know nodded along, saying: “Thank God for Sir Keir! He turbo-charged the economy, built thousands of truly affordable homes, tackled the cost-of-living crisis, ended the injustice of student loans, cleaned up our waterways, made the trains run on time and transformed the NHS so radically you could actually see a GP in person!”

Starmer’s self-congratulatory valedictory speech was in painful, surreal contrast to the conversation I had this week with a Left-leaning former nurse in my home town of Cambridge, one of the most progressive-minded cities in the UK. We both have one child at university and another who’s just turned 18. The main theme of our chat was the tragic fact that we’re turfing them out into an AI-dominated world that has no meaningful job vacancies and where widespread messaging about the “climate crisis” means the young are riddled with anxiety disorders.

Her super-clever student daughter has a summer post in a pub in London where all the other bartenders have top degrees and MAs from Russell Group universities. The prospect of our children ever earning enough to repay their student debt and own a property is negligible. And if they can’t do that, how can they afford to start a family? No wonder most of them have no ambitions beyond making enough to travel. They look at their middle-class parents strangled by tax, inflation, soaring grocery and utility bills, and cancelling summer holidays (this is the first year in a decade I’m not booked to go away), and are convinced the domestic carousel isn’t worth the price of the ticket.

No wonder most of the young women I know say they never want to start a family. The Ockenden report and constant horror stories from maternity wards up and down the UK have put paid to that notion. Nor do other parts of the NHS stand up to scrutiny. I had to beg to get HRT, and when my octogenarian aunt was hospitalised in early summer, she reported the air-con malfunctioned and every corridor was lined with moaning patients on trolleys like a scene from Dante’s Inferno.

Addenbrooke’s hospital is the biggest employer in Cambridge after the university, but the number of people waiting more than 12 hours in Cambridgeshire A&Es has soared from seven in February 2020 to 1,479 in February 2026. A friend having a suspected heart attack waited 16 hours for an ambulance last year and then drove himself in. In London, a friend who had severe chest pains and was gasping for air was dismissed from two different A&E departments as a time waster. On the third occasion, as he struggled to climb stairs, he demanded a D-dimer test to check the possibility of blood clots. It transpired he’d suffered a “massive bilateral pulmonary embolism” for which the key symptoms are… breathlessness and chest pain.

But the worst part of our failing state is the abject failure to help small businesses thrive. I grew up in a pub and have been involved with three small publishing businesses (two that I co-owned) over the past 30 years. These kinds of ventures can’t survive if you make the real cost of employing staff too costly. Now pubs are going under at a rate of knots, while the online magazine I currently edit can’t afford to take on young people: changes to employment law, along with increased minimum wage, National Insurance contributions and all-round rising overheads make it an impossibility. Even if we did employ a youngster, they couldn’t afford London rents. We’ve been chasing and getting thrillingly close to, yet never quite securing, investment for four years now. Pretty much every other entrepreneur I know is in the same boat: great business plans abound, but no one rich and canny wants to part with cash in a country that feels permanently on the brink of recession. Confidence has ebbed away like water in the nation’s leaky pipes.

So Starmer can jaw on as much as he wants about Britain being a “better place” under his leadership and raising the “national living wage”, but a PM will always be judged by whether people want to invest in the country he leads. Look at fizzing, confident Poland, where GDP grew by 3.5 per cent in the first quarter of this year, compared to the UK’s paltry 0.6 per cent. There, a great education – prioritising both Stem and humanities (all my Polish friends have studied philosophy at school) – is par for the course. The actual “living experience” of most voters is that we’re squeezed to the pips, caring for ageing parents and kids who have no hope in the future and want to emigrate. Our roads are full of potholes, petty crime like bike and phone theft blights our lives, public transport is shockingly bad, healthcare is a lottery where only the wealthy are guaranteed treatment, retirement looms on an ever-more-distant horizon and when we do stop, bent over with rheumatism, old-age care is unaffordable.

Of course, the rot started long before Starmer became prime minister and was escalated by Covid, along with staggering political complacency across the main parties. But Sir Keir fudged some obvious popular wins. What about taking the big water companies by the scruff of the neck and tackling filth and E.coli in our seas and rivers? What about allowing small businesses like mine to offer short periods of unpaid work experience once again, in return for training young people? (I don’t mean official apprenticeships with all the attendant red tape.) I envisage class warriors protesting about exploitation, but the young working-class woman from Blackburn I trained on that basis 27 years ago is about to arrive at my house for a drink. She made herself irreplaceable, increased our productivity and we created a full-time job for her. Now she edits trade publications for a company in Wimbledon.

Sadly, Starmer’s period in office has seen this kind of enterprise and social mobility stifled. But, then, he had a remarkable lack of forward motion and oomph in his own person. The truth is, he left Great Britain even more moribund and hopeless than he found it – or feeling that way, which is just as bad an indictment. Hell, we even lost the most important footie match of my lifetime. Bye-bye Keir, we will not miss you.
