Keir Starmer’s Britain

Political Animal 12 Comments

Where the foxes caper unmolested, the government packs your school lunch and the death watch has begun.

Sir Keir Starmer will announce as early as tomorrow that he is quitting as Prime Minister in the wake of Andy Burnham’s decisive victory in the Makerfield by- election, it was claimed last night.

The PM was said to have reached the conclusion that his position was no longer tenable after talking to Cabinet colleagues, No 10 advisers, union leaders and key Labour donors.

Sources insisted Sir Keir, who is this weekend discussing his future with his wife Victoria at their country retreat Chequers, had yet to make a final decision.

However, senior Labour figures told The Observer that they believed a clear statement could come from the PM as early as tomorrow or later this week.

It’s a 3B$ bailout of BC developers, and even the CBC is mad about it.

B.C. is facing a glut of empty condos. Thousands of Metro Vancouver units are sitting empty and some developers are facing insolvency.

Now, some housing experts are questioning a plan by the federal and provincial governments to buy some of those vacant units and turn them into affordable housing.

They say it amounts to a multi-billion dollar bail out for developers who refuse to lower prices to reflect a sluggish real estate market.[…]

Yan has a lot of questions about the plan by Mark Carney and David Eby to spend up to $3 billion to buy vacant condos in “priority growth areas” and turn them into affordable housing.

Recent data from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation shows that as of last month, there were 4,376 completed condos sitting empty in Metro Vancouver, a 76 per cent increase from the year before.

Yan has crunched the numbers, with his analysis showing that a third of all condos without owners in Metro Vancouver cost over $1 million.

He questions how deep a discount the governments can get to make those units truly affordable.

Wrong question.

Sleeping With The Enemy The Tolerant Left 11 Comments

Daily Wire (paywalled);

In this new indictment, the DOJ alleges that a high-level [Southern Poverty Law Center] official — the director of their “intelligence project” — was sleeping with an informant in a white supremacist group called the “National Alliance.” The group was founded by William Luther Pierce, who wrote “The Turner Diaries,” which inspired the Oklahoma City bombings.

On top of that, according to the indictment, the SPLC was funneling more than a million dollars to this particular “white supremacist,” while their “intelligence director” was sleeping with him.

Here’s an apparent picture of the intelligence director:

The New York Post reports that the SPLC official in question is “believed to be Heidi Beirich, a 58-year-old fascism expert who was the director of intelligence at [the SPLC] between 2012 and 2019.”

Think about how on-the-nose this is. The SPLC was going around saying “f*ck fascists,” and what do you know? They were f*cking fascists. And funding them too.

NY Post has lots, lots more.

Our Chinese-Installed Government In Ottawa

The Bureau;

A chill is roiling Ottawa’s bureaucracy after the woman who crafted Canada’s policy to defend the North with American allies was fired, she alleges, after criticizing the government’s anti-American rhetoric — and shortly after Mark Carney’s government declared Beijing a strategic partner, The Bureau has been informed.

Raquel Garbers spent 28 years in Canada’s public service and helped write the country’s current defence policy. On October 15, 2025, she published an opinion piece warning that Ottawa’s growing anti-American rhetoric was splitting the Western alliance and handing a gift to the country’s real adversaries, Beijing and Moscow. Two days later, according to the statement of claim in her wrongful-dismissal suit, Canada’s foreign minister stood in Beijing and signaled a shift toward a “strategic partnership” with China — a sharp reversal of Ottawa’s own recent posture toward Beijing. Weeks after that, she was fired.

Garbers, 57, filed her claim this month in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Ottawa, seeking about $2 million from the federal government. She is not a junior official, and her stature, and questions about whether Mark Carney’s government is trying to enforce a silence over the public service as Ottawa pivots closer to Beijing, are topics of conversation in Ottawa, Garbers’s legal team told The Bureau today.

Here’s an alternate version of Fanfare for the Common Man, performed by ‘Asia’ in Tokyo in 2007.

Bonus: Here’s a beautiful rendition of the American National Anthem by a little girl in Los Angeles. It got me wondering if something like this could ever occur in Canuckistan, given that all pride about Canada has been repeatedly & deliberately discouraged by Trudope and the Lieberals.

Your best tips of late are always appreciated!
