Miroslav Knezicky: why don’t you want a CV including working for a fraud publicised?

As JD Vance has, correctly, pointed out Europe has a bit of a problem with free speech. One aspect of this is a law applied in the UK as well as in the Evil Empire, but created by the EU which allows crooks to hide their activities from a google search.

Is Ben Woods, @benonwine, being sacked by Waitrose/John Lewis for having the wrong views, for being right wing?

If you thought that John Lewis, the owner of Waitrose, had cured itself of the woke virus following the departure of the ghastly bien pensant Sharon White perhaps you should think again. As I was discussing with a pal yesterday the biggest threat to freedom of speech comes not from we right wingers but from the militant left. Ben Woods has worked in the Henley branch of Waitrose for 25 years.

Tom Winnifrith Podcast: Another big defeat for Ukraine while JD Vance wipes Tampon Tim but does it matter?

I start with events in Ukraine. President Zelensky’s “Victory Plan” could not be more misnamed. Then it is onto the US election and last night’s VP debate. Does the triumph of JD Vance matter? Not a lot. But the polls and the behaviour of Kamala Harris suggest that President Trump has momentum and is, if anything, n ow in the lead. I am already calling the Senate and the House for the GOP, I now sense it is time to start thinking about victory in the Presidential race as well. Get ready to drink bucket loads of  BBC and other liberal tears in 33 days time.

Tom Winnifrith podcast: the war in Ukraine and the US Election, old Joe stumbles on, Donald Trump is shot and JD Vance picked

I start with Ukraine and what changes there are are not good for the West and President Zelensky. I look at what is changing in Europe and what happens next. Then to the US election, a legal win for Trump, Biden stumbles again and again but may survive as a lame candidate thanks to the shooting of Trump. It bought old Joe time. Then I look at JD Vance and what he brings to the ticket, locking down the Northern swing states. And Elon Musk’s money enters the game, what does that mean?
