Shaping Young Minds: UAE Cuts Scholarships To Study In The UK, Citing Radical Islamic Ideologies In British Universities

In January this year, the UAE made a shock announcement. It would no longer fund its young students to study abroad at universities in the United Kingdom. The decision was reported by multiple news outlets, each confirming the shocking reason for the pronouncement. An Emirati expert in strategic and political affairs, Amjad Taha, said, “The UAE will not send its students to become hostages of Islamist jihadist ideology disguised as campus activism” while studying in Britain.

NHS Reinstates UK Christian Nurse Suspended for ‘Misgendering’ Patient

The NHS Trust has dropped a disciplinary case against a U.K. Christian nurse who was suspended after publicly criticizing a warning she had received from the Trust for “misgendering” a biological male who had been convicted of pedophilia and identified as female.

Christians Can Not Allow The Tiny Flame Of Holocaust Memory To Be Extinguished

In our day and age, our worse enemies like online antisemite Nick Fuentes compare the Jews to cookies going into ovens. Others say the Shoah (the catastrophe) never happened or was just exaggerated as propaganda for the Jews to start the State of Israel. Even within our friends and within the evangelical church, there are people who think that six million was too high a number. I lost my grandfather, murdered in Auschwitz. If you ask me...One was too high a number!

Compromise Is A Gospel Issue, And We Must Not Back Down

For too long we have allowed Christian truth to be gnawed at until it becomes barely recognisable from the beliefs and expressions of our forefathers. If Christians are free to speak the truth, we must also be free to challenge the invasions—however subtle—which seek to subvert the truth too.

‘A Victory For Common Sense’: UK Employment Tribunal Rules In Favor Of Biological Truth

“This is a victory for common sense and for every woman who simply wants to feel safe at work,” said Darlington nurse Bethany Hutchison, president of the Darlington Nursing Union. “Women deserve access to single-sex spaces without fear of intimidation. Forcing us to undress in front of a man was not only degrading but dangerous. Today’s ruling sends a clear message: the NHS cannot ignore women’s right in the name of ideology.” 

Held To Account: BBC Edits Misleading ‘Conversion Therapy’ Article But Its Output Remains Grossly Biased

I have begun a research project on the BBC’s coverage of conversion therapy. Looking through more than 30 articles published over the last ten years, it is completely clear that the corporation’s output is not remotely balanced or impartial. It needs to change. This is the first line in the sand. If we continue to see editors signing off on biased representations of this important and politically relevant topic, we will continue to hold them to account, with each infraction demonstrating their brazen attitude towards truth.

UK Petition to Halt Drug Trial Testing Puberty Blockers on Kids Passes 100,000 Signatures

A UK petition to cancel a clinical trial testing puberty blockers on children surpassed 100,000 signatures yesterday — a critical milestone which qualifies the petition for debate in parliament.

Who Is Really In Control?: UK Police Lie To Cover Up Enforcement Of Islamic Demands

West Midlands Police made claims about the behaviour of Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters at a game in Amsterdam in November 2024. However, police in the Netherlands dismissed these claims as untrue or misleading. West Midlands police exaggerated the police response to disorder in Amsterdam, increasing the claimed officers deployed from 1,200 officers to 5,000 officers.

Chaplains Deploy After Devastating Fire In Switzerland

A New Year’s Eve celebration turned tragic when a fire broke out at Le Constellation, a nightclub in Crans-Montana, Switzerland. The incident killed 40 people and left many more seriously injured.  At the invitation of a local pastor, the Billy Graham Rapid Response Team (BG-RRT) sent crisis-trained chaplains to the area on Jan. 2.

Trump Administration Speaks Out As Woman Becomes First In The UK To Face Criminal Charges For Silent Prayer

“The decision to prosecute a woman engaged in silent prayer is not only concerning in terms of its impact on respect for the fundamental freedoms of expression and religion or belief, but is also an unwelcome departure from the shared values that ought to underpin U.S.–U.K. relations... We are monitoring Isabel’s case closely. It is common sense that standing silently and offering conversation should not constitute harm."

A Serious Freedom Of Speech Problem: The Three Big Threats To UK Street Ministry

Christian street ministry has a long and fruitful history in the United Kingdom. But in recent years the freedom to preach in the streets has been severely curtailed. The legalisation of same-sex marriage and the advancement of transgenderism has left Christians vulnerable should they speak about the Bible’s pattern for marriage and sexuality. This is true for people in the workplace, who may risk their jobs for speaking up. But it’s also true in public spaces.

‘If Jewish Children Singing In Hebrew Now Triggers Law Enforcement And Handcuffs, Then Something Is Broken’

A chilling video circulating online shows a young woman being pinned against the floor of an airport as Spanish police place her in handcuffs, manhandling her in the process. The video has drawn condemnation not only because of what it shows, but also because of what led to the incident: the removal of 44 French Jewish teenagers the woman was supervising from a European flight, allegedly for the crime of speaking Hebrew.

‘De Facto Blasphemy Laws’: As The UK Seeks To Redefine ‘Anti-Muslim Hostility,’ Legal Experts Sound The Alarm

If the government adopts this as its official definition it will be a very significant moment in this country. While it will not actually be a blasphemy law, it will effectively be a blasphemy code in relation to Islam. It won’t actually be a criminal offence to say something which falls foul of this definition, but you could lose your job and have your speech recorded against you as a non-crime hate incident.

Germany Detains Five Over Suspected Christmas Market Attack Plot

German authorities have detained five men in southern Germany over an alleged plot to carry out a “possibly Islamist-motivated attack” on a Christmas market, officials confirmed late Friday.

Teacher Fired for Calling England a Christian Country Wins Appeal

A teacher in England who was banned from working with children for telling a Muslim student that “Britain is still a Christian state” has won an appeal and received a new teaching job. 

The Muslim Long Game: From Syria To Europe And America, Islam’s Global Strategy Is On Full Display

The deeper we look at this man, the more apparent it becomes that while he says the right words, his actions betray him. He is playing the Muslim long game, similar to the “soft takeover” that Islam has carried out in Europe. He is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and I hope that President Donald Trump and other world leaders have enough insight to see him for who he really is. Al-Sharaa’s soft takeover is indicative of Islam’s global strategy. The clearest sign of this is in Europe where Muslim violence is blending with the vicious nature of the radical left to steal the peace of the continent.

Russia’s Bid for a Red Sea Stronghold: Sudan’s Secret Base Deal Ignites Global Alarm

Sudan’s military rulers have quietly offered Russia its first-ever African naval base—an arrangement that would hand the Kremlin a powerful strategic foothold over the Red Sea, one of the world’s most critical and contested trade arteries—according to a Wall Street Journal exclusive.

Trial By Jury: The Next Item On The Chopping Block In England Holds Major Ramifications For Freedom

Thank God that the United States declared independence from England two-and-a-half centuries ago and dependence upon the Lord at the same time. Great Britain, which was a prime mover toward human progress in many ways, seems to be going through a period of jettisoning its former greatness – one move at a time. On the chopping block? Trial by jury for many cases.

Poisoning Public Debate: BBC News Misleads UK Population About ‘Conversion Therapy’

I believe that this article is materially misleading the public on a matter of real importance. The BBC has long suppressed stories of those who are grateful to have moved out of gay or trans identities, but this is a step further.

UK Supreme Court Rules That Christian Education And Worship In Schools Is Unlawful

The UK Supreme Court has ruled that the Christian-focused religious education and collective worship in Northern Ireland’s state-funded primary schools is “unlawful.” This is a direct assault on the Christian foundations of the education system, but has been coming for some time. It is a stark warning of what happens when a nation abandons truth for relativism in its schools.

EU’s Highest Court Rules That Poland And Other Member States Must Recognize Same-Sex Marriages

While Poland’s justice minister confirmed that the government will implement the ruling, the office of President Karol Nawrocki declared that Poland “will not succumb to the terror of rainbow rulings.” If the EU deems Poland in violation of implementing the ruling, the country could face ongoing fines until it complies. 

Preacher Acquitted After ‘Hate Claim’ For Saying ‘We Love The Jews’

Christian street preacher Shaun O’Sullivan has been cleared by a jury at Swindon Crown Court after a trial that raised serious questions about freedom of speech and the policing of so-called “hate claims.”

Christian Hate Attacks Grow More Violent Across Europe, Watchdog Warns

A new investigation shows threats, violence, and arson attacks targeting Christians in Europe grew significantly more severe over the last year, highlighting mounting concerns about the spread of radical Islam and anti-Christian sentiments across the continent.

Mossad: Foiled Hamas Terror Plots In Europe Were Directed From Qatar, Possibly Turkey

Israeli intelligence revealed Wednesday that a sweeping joint investigation with European security agencies has uncovered a network of Hamas-linked terror cells operating across Europe, with recent plots traced back to Qatar and possibly Turkey, where senior Hamas officials maintain political offices.

Europe’s Highest Court Rules Against Poland’s Eugenic Abortion Ban, Claiming It Breaches ‘Human Rights’

“Poland has both the sovereign prerogative and the duty to protect all innocent human life. Poland’s Constitutional Tribunal acted courageously to protect children with disabilities from discrimination before birth—a goal fully consistent with international human rights law.”

State Department Designates European Antifa Groups Foreign Terror Organizations

“We’re not going to stop at just arresting the violent criminals we can see in the streets,” Bondi said. “Fighting crime is more than just getting the bad guy off of the street. It’s breaking down the organization brick by brick. Just like we did with cartels. We’re going to take this same approach, President Trump, with Antifa. Destroy the entire organization from top to bottom.”

Malta’s Prosecution Of Christian Convert Is A Harbinger Of LGBT Objectives In U.S.

In a case with long-term ramifications for the United States, Maltese Christian Matthew Grech has been charged with violating the Mediterranean country’s so-called “conversion therapy” ban for simply sharing his personal testimony of Christian conversion from an LGBT lifestyle in a broadcast interview.

Teacher Banned For Mocking [REDACTED] Religion: Why Is The UK So Afraid To Criticise Islam?

why has the TRA redacted all reference to Islam or Muslims? What do they think they are hiding? Do they really believe that the British public won’t draw the obvious conclusion? If they really think that then they really ought to do a better job regulating teaching in this country. One would have to be very badly educated not to see the blindingly obvious here.

A Crime To Quote The Bible?: Finnish Supreme Court Hears Case With Far-Reaching Implications For Freedom ‘Across Europe’

“In a democracy, no one should fear criminal prosecution for expressing their faith,” said Coleman. “This case is about far more than one tweet—it is about whether quoting the Bible is permissible in modern Finland. The Supreme Court now has the opportunity to affirm the foundational freedoms that protect everyone, regardless of belief.”

Deeply Antisemitic: We Need To Stop Pretending That Islam Is A Peaceful Religion

Islam is not a peaceful religion, when judged according to its texts and by the example of Muhammad. It is deeply antisemitic. It is a very different religion to Christianity with a very different founder. We cannot ignore these differences and pretend that every act of violence or abuse perpetrated by a Muslim has nothing to do with the religion itself.

Heckled, Spat At, And Physically Assaulted: Jewish Student Trip To Italy Showcases The Depth Of Antisemitism In Europe

We witnessed some antisemitic graffiti and acts of Jew-hate in Florence, Venice, and Verona, but nothing could have prepared me for the barrage of Jewish hatred we encountered in Rome—the heart of ancient civilization. In some areas, entire walls were coated with slogans, many not merely masking themselves as pro-Palestinian, but unashamedly proclaiming Jew-hatred.

Russian Fighter Jets Violate Estonian Airspace, NATO Responds With F-35s

Three Russian military jets violated NATO military alliance member Estonia’s airspace for 12 minutes on Friday in an “unprecedentedly brazen” incursion, its government said, prompting Italian F-35 stealth fighters to respond.

Christian Education Under Threat From Major UK Government Bill

After being rushed through the House of Commons earlier this year, the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill continues to be scrutinised in the House of Lords. We have previously warned about the dangers of the bill which validate long-held concerns of overreach into the independence of schools and the private lives of Christian families.
