A routine Fox News appearance by retired Vice Admiral Robert Harward discussing the US-Iran standoff has gone unexpectedly viral — not for the geopolitical analysis he offered, but because social media users became convinced he was wearing a face mask on live television. Harward appeared on the network to offer commentary on President Donald Trump’s strategy toward Iran, arguing that Trump had time on his side and was using sanctions and economic pressure to force Tehran towards capitulation rather than genuine negotiations. He also referenced internal discord within the Iranian regime and touched on broader regional factors including the ongoing…

Kemi Badenoch has ignited a fierce debate on the British right after arguing that Britishness is defined by shared values and loyalty rather than ethnic heritage — drawing sharp criticism from identitarian commentators who insist national identity is rooted in ancestry and bloodline. In a discussion with podcaster Elliot Bewick at Oxford University, the Conservative leader said ethnicity was irrelevant to being British, stressing instead that it was about “buying into that identity” — loving the UK, wanting its success, abiding by its norms, laws and standards, and sharing its culture. “It’s not just going for a curry,” she said,…

A car has been caught on CCTV apparently accelerating towards a Jewish family as they crossed a road in a Salford neighbourhood with one of the largest Orthodox Jewish communities in Britain — with observers calling for police to investigate the incident as a potential antisemitic attack. The footage, shared by Manchester Scoop, was recorded at around 10am on Monday 19 May on Leicester Road in Higher Broughton. It shows a car stopping at a green traffic light without moving, then waiting as the light turns red, before accelerating forward at speed precisely as the family begins to cross. No…

A 14-year-old boy has been found murdered in an abandoned building in Bavaria, allegedly killed by a rejected Palestinian asylum seeker who had been allowed to remain in Germany for years because authorities were unable to establish his identity and obtain travel documents to deport him — reigniting Germany’s fierce national debate about the failure of its deportation system. Jermaine B. was reported missing on the evening of Saturday 2 May after failing to return home in Memmingen. A major police search was launched before his body was discovered in the early hours of Monday 5 May in a derelict…

A disqualified driver who mounted a Birmingham pavement and mowed down a husband and wife walking hand in hand — then reversed over the fatally injured man before fleeing the scene — has been jailed for 11 years and three months, as his widow told the court she cries for her husband every day. Harinderpal Athwal, 41, of Tividale, was driving his Vauxhall Corsa along Soho Road in Handsworth at around 11.15am on 16 December 2025 when, for reasons that remain unclear, the vehicle swerved into oncoming traffic and mounted the pavement without braking. CCTV footage captured him hitting both…

A 19-year-old woman has been shot dead outside her family’s home in South Carolina at the end of a week of escalating threats that began when a relative hired a man online to fix a car — culminating in a murder that left her family devastated and a suspect facing a murder charge after a SWAT standoff. Camariya Tidwell was shot and killed at around 11pm on Saturday outside her family’s home on Mount Gallant Road in Rock Hill, York County. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Her family told investigators she was not the intended target of the…

Elon Musk has reignited his public feud with his estranged transgender daughter, posting on his own social media platform X that “the woke mind virus killed my son” — a statement that drew both fierce condemnation and widespread conservative praise, and prompted a characteristically sharp response from Vivian Jenna Wilson herself. The post, published on Sunday 17 May, came in response to a quote-tweet referencing Musk’s longstanding vow to “destroy the woke mind virus.” It is among his most direct and personal formulations yet of a position he has held publicly since at least 2024 — that his daughter’s transition…

A North African asylum seeker with a known criminal history has died after falling from the 17th floor of a building in Germany while attempting to flee police, following a knife attack on an Italian woman. The suspect, described by police as a repeat offender, attacked the woman with a knife before officers were called to the scene. When police cornered him inside the building, he attempted to escape by jumping from the 17th floor, falling to his death. The victim’s condition has not yet been confirmed. The incident is the latest in a series of high-profile violent attacks in…

A Croatian woman has been arrested after video footage showing her repeatedly punching and slamming a man to the ground outside a sports shop in central Zagreb went viral across social media, sparking fierce debate about self-defence, proportionate force and the online misrepresentation of events involving migrants. The man in question was later identified as a Filipino national working in Croatia, though early viral versions of the footage widely and incorrectly identified him as Indian. According to police, the incident took place on 2 May in central Zagreb. The woman was arrested on 13 May in connection with the assault,…

A Polish Member of the European Parliament has had his UK travel authorisation revoked by the Home Office, becoming one of at least seven foreign speakers barred from attending a right-wing rally in London later this week. Dominik Tarczyński, an MEP for Poland’s Law and Justice party, was informed on Monday that his Electronic Travel Authorisation had been cancelled ahead of the so-called “Unite the Kingdom” event, organised by Tommy Robinson and scheduled for 16 May in London. The official communication from the Home Office stated that his presence in the United Kingdom “is not considered to be conducive to…
