A Sri Lankan migrant who sued the taxpayer for £7million claiming he needed round-the-clock care has been seen go-karting, going to the gym and doing the school run, a High Court judge has said.
Vengadeswara Raw Gopalakrishnan has been found to have 'deliberately fabricated' claims that he was housebound after he suffered 'serious and long-term psychiatric injury' while detained in a detention centre between September 2013 and February 2014.
He had come to the UK in 2010 before overstaying his visa and unsuccessfully claiming asylum. Gopalakrishnan was granted indefinite leave to remain in 2023.
The migrant later sued the Home Office for more than £7million.
Why is our legal system so open to be made a fool of by foreign scammers and cheats?

It's much more than pomposity and arrogance, @adamcarolla. There are specific Arabic words that capture what @AbdulElSayed is doing. He is saying: "I'm f**king you, your wife, your kids, and your country, and there is nothing that you can do about it."

🚨UPDATE🚨
“I'm gonna be the dirtiest fucking doctor ever. I'm gonna poison her slowly.” - Ahmet Kerem Körkaya
Ahmet Körkaya is one of 12 University of Michigan students arrested by the FBI this past spring, and is currently facing charges for plotting to “kill, torture, and torment” university officials who refused to divest from Israel.
He was released on bail and has now landed a job as a 5th grade TEACHER and soccer coach at Salam School, a private K–12 operated by the Islamic Society of Milwaukee.
🔼Read that twice🔼
This Turkish-born terror-supporter and former medical student faces 10 to 15 years in federal prison for leading a two-year campaign of violence, intimidation, death threats, and vandalism.
This past week, one of Obama’s commie/jihadist-loving judges, Judith Levy (go figure), decided to remove his ankle monitor because it hinders his sex life and his young students are confused about why he’s wearing one.
Here’s what Judge Judith Levy unleashed on society:
Ahmet Körkaya discussed with another student about how he was going to plow his car through the front of a Jewish university official’s home while the official’s children were inside.
He told another student that he wanted to poison a Jewish university board regent for her refusal to divest from Israel:
“I’m gonna be the dirtiest fucking doctor ever. I’m gonna poison her slowly.”
The FBI found jihadist literature, Hamas propaganda, and artwork depicting beheadings in Körkaya’s home.
In text messages to his comrades, Körkaya said he believed bombings were in his “true nature” and went on to declare that he was “going to go militant because I hate it here.”
This is what we’re up against, patriots. A two-front war: the terrorists and the judges who unleash them.
The FBI needs to be all over this. Again. FAST.

He's a man and happily lives as one in his home country. Muslim women are not allowed to do this where he is from.

Congratulations, Abdul El-Sayed. You won.
You outsmarted millions. If voters in other states had been allowed to vote for you, many more would have fallen for your charm. Keep going and maybe one day it's the presidency.
Like it or not, they will call you Senator. You beat them at their own game. Western democracy gave you representation, and you're using that power to shape your country (yes, your country) closer to your worldview. Who knows, maybe you'll even work to undo the Muslim Brotherhood designation. As an observant Muslim, why wouldn't you pursue what you believe in?
And let's be honest: you read your voters far better than they read you. Your critics put the questions about your associations in front of them. Your voters, many of them Jewish, shrugged and backed you anyway. As we say in Arabic: القانون لا يحمي المغفلين. The law doesn't protect the gullible.
The political current that cheered your victory has spent decades working patiently toward this, for the good of humanity as it sees it, and for the good of its children.
I disagree. I grew up where Islam has ruled since the 7th century. Since the eighties, the Muslim Brotherhood has promised us الإسلام هو الحل, "Islam is the solution." We lived the result, and nothing could be further from the truth. That was our experience in the Muslim world, the same world your parents chose to leave.
Maybe America will be different. Maybe here it will finally work, because the people who mistake your smug smile for a sweet one are so much easier to win over. They have no resilience. They take every smile at face value. And they have so little sense of who they are that some would trade it for anything that offers certainty.
Congratulations. The hard work paid off. While your side spent decades organizing, the people who should have been paying attention were busy inventing new identities, new grievances, new reasons to be offended, new things to smoke, new gods. Then the Palestinian cause led them straight into bed with Islamism. And for Palestine, they'll march hypnotized to the end of the earth.

It's front and centre of our politics because it is a point of principle. The left take to the streets waving the omni-cause Palestine flag - which is the flag of the Islamo-leftist revolutionary alliance. It is a wholly nihilistic anti-west movement founded on a foundation of lies, and thus support for Israel becomes an act of defiance. I know which side I'm on.
I am glad to support Israel because I ultimately stand for the principle of national self-defence, especially against the evil that is the Palestine movement. I also stand with British Jews; a genuinely persecuted but peaceful, productive minority that has contributed to the intellectual, social, cultural and economic life of the country. Their presence poses no threat to us, nor does their participation in our political life threaten our interests.
Political parties should have no fear of expressing that friendship, unless they're running scared of British Islamists and the far left, or if they're pandering to the far right. For me it's pretty good litmus test of whether a party is supportable.
DiscomBob retweeted
Pro-Palestine used to mean "in favour of a peaceable two-state solution". Most liberals still think this is what it means.
Pro-Palestine amongst the post-modernist leftists now means "destroy Israel and remove Jews".
It's your classic motte-and-bailey "progressive" tactic.

Stop blaming the collective Muslims for the electoral success of Islamists in U.S. elections!
This is unfair and politically counterproductive.
👉 By blaming Muslims collectively for electoral outcomes produced by much broader American constituencies, you risk strengthening the very Islamist claim that Muslims and Islamists are politically inseparable. You are only making Islamists stronger by doing so!
💹 Broadly speaking:
American Muslims represent less than 2% of the U.S. population. Not all are eligible to vote, and Muslim Americans are politically diverse, and only a fraction of them support Islamists.
I, for one, have been fighting against those Islamists and their hateful ideology for almost two decades, both in Egypt and here in the U.S.
📘 Three cases to further prove this fact:
1. Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan (2026)
* Votes received: Approximately 2.51 million (52.5%).
* Estimated Muslim population in Michigan: 274,000 (2.7%).
👉 Even if every Muslim resident, including children and noncitizens, voted for El-Sayed, they would account for only 10.9% of his votes. They cannot make him win!
👉 At least 89.1% of the votes given to El-Sayed must have come from non-Muslims. These are the people who made him win.
2. Zohran Mamdani in New York City (2025)
* Votes received: Approximately 1.11 million (50.8%).
* Muslims represent an estimated 7% of New York City's registered voters.
👉 At least 93% of registered voters are non-Muslims.
🧨 Even more shocking, Exit polling showed that 33% of Jewish voters and 75% of religiously unaffiliated voters supported Mamdani.
3. Adam Hamawy in New Jersey (2026)
* Votes received: Approximately 164,640 (70.4%).
* Estimated Muslim voters: At least 56,141 registered Muslim voters across the four counties that overlap his congressional district. Hamawy's congressional district includes only portions of these counties. Some of those Muslim voters live outside his district and could not have voted for him.
👉 Even if all 56,141 voters supported Hamawy, including those who cannot even vote or those outside his district, they would account for only 34% of his total votes.)
👉 That means that at least 66% of the voters were non-Muslims! His district also has a substantial Democratic base, making broader partisan support essential to understanding his victory.
🚩 It is not a coincidence that in several Muslim-majority countries, including Egypt, the home of the Muslim Brotherhood, the Muslim Brotherhood has faced significant popular opposition, political exclusion, and official banning and designation as a terrorist organization. Many Muslims have resisted Islamist political movements, sometimes at enormous personal cost.
‼️ Islamism is a political ideology, not an inevitable expression of Muslim identity.
You can be non-Muslim and still adopt this hateful ideology as a way of life and political practice. Conversely, you can be a Muslim and completely reject this devious ideology of the Islamists.
In short:
❓Is there a serious threat to US democracy?
Yes of course
❓Are Islamists and their ideology and tactics the main driver behind this threat?
Absolutely, yes!
❓Are the collective American Muslims (barely 2% of the entire U.S. population) to be blamed for the success of Islamists?
Absolutely not! (Check the facts and numbers I listed above).
👉 By blaming all Muslims for your inability to block Islamists from hijacking your democracy, you are only offering these Islamists exactly the narrative they want to advance with their evil and devious agenda to destroy your democracy from within.
✋ I, and many other Muslims like me, are on your side and want Islamists to be defeated, and want this great Western democracy to continue to thrive because it is the only place where we feel safe.
So, please be careful and do not empower our common enemy (the Islamists) with such collective blame. Let's focus on the real fight to save America before it is too late.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Someone just posted this. The voting location was a church and this was in rural Idaho.
Not sure anyone is ready for what’s to come. Republicans are dealing with a violent, mentally ill enemy in the democrats and we aren’t acting accordingly as a nation.

Why are replies off @UKHouseofLords #ConversionPracticesBill is #BadLaw. It will criminalise parents & grandparents standing against this. It will criminalise saying to a confused teenage girl, "you're not a man, you don't need this, you're a lesbian & it's fine". #OKtoBeGay
A joint committee made up of members of the House of Lords and House of Commons has been set up to consider the government’s Draft Conversion Practices Bill.

I was usually the ONLY WOMAN in my convoy in Afghanistan. Not only was I a military police team leader, I was the one who searched the Afghan women.
Those women told me things their husbands never would. They also told me things they wouldn't tell their husbands. They let me hold their babies and talk to their kids. These women had NO voice in that country. No rights. They were men's property.
40 months in a Muslim country taught me this: Sharia doesn't "coexist." It TAKES. And here in the USA, it will take from women FIRST.
Ladies, it starts with your voice. DO NOT hand it over. It wasn't very long ago at all that we fought for and WON our freedom here in America. We owe it to our daughters not to go backwards. 🇺🇸🪖

Usually, the election night message is "He'll be a leader for all Americans, regardless of how they voted"
Mehdi Hasan has a slightly different message for people who didn't support Abdul El-Sayed...

No! It should not be acceptable for American politicians to use Arabic words in their electoral victory speeches, as El-Sayed in Michigan did, or to ask the crowds to chant "Allahu Akbar," as Hamawy in New Jersey did.
I cannot see this as a democratic practice. In my mind, it is pretty similar to the Sheiks who gather Muslims to pray in public squares and use this to imply taking over the West.
The Islamic regime in Iran is celebrating what they call the "acceleration" of "the process of US collapse"
Put this next to the 1991 strategy of the Muslim Brotherhood to destroy the Western Civilization from within, and you will realize that:
Something is seriously wrong here!!!

I have been waiting 24 years for my neighbor David Westerfield to be executed for the kidnapping and murder of my 7-year-old neighbor, Danielle van Dam. And now thanks to @GavinNewsom, it looks like it will never happen.
I was 13 when he abducted her from her bedroom in the middle of the night in 2002. I would never equate what I experienced with what her family suffered, but Danielle's murder devastated our whole neighborhood, and me personally. I was a sensitive kid and it was a major contributor to my mental health decline in adolescence.
In the 20 days between her disappearance and his arrest, I developed insomnia and spent those nights walking around the house checking the locks on the doors and windows. I followed the trial closely. As we learned the horrific details, I couldn't stop thinking about what she endured during the 3 days he had her.
Her body was found dumped off the side of a road 25 days after she went missing. It was too decomposed to test for sexual assault, but we all knew that's why he took her. He was also convicted of possessing child sexual abuse material found on his computer.
There was never any doubt about Westerfield's guilt. There was an abundance of forensic evidence, including her blood on his clothing and in his motorhome. In 2019, the California Supreme Court unanimously upheld his conviction and death sentence. Shortly afterward, Newsom imposed his moratorium. And now he does THIS.
California voters rejected abolishing the death penalty in both 2012 and 2016, and even voted to expedite executions. All these years, I've held on to the hope that someone would eventually take office who respected the will of California voters and would allow these sentences to be carried out.
It's especially insulting to hear Newsom go on about morality, as if he is morally superior to those of us whose lives were affected by these heinous crimes and who want to see the perpetrators brought to justice. I'm hoping the California Supreme Court can stop Westerfield's commutation.

I was born in 1969, so I’ve lived long enough to recognise that a religion that throws homosexuals from buildings, treats women as chattel, and offers unbelievers the choice of conversion or death...has no place in my world.

Say no to the “pro-Palestine” industrial complex, Islamism, and cultural relativism: These scenes cannot become normal in the Western world. Earlier today in Copenhagen, Palestinian and Arab immigrants and their descendants were filmed chanting for Hamas, the al-Qassam Brigades, Yahya Sinwar, Abu Obaida, jihad, the destruction of Tel Aviv, and terrorism under the banner of being “pro-Palestine” (video source: Moumen Al-Natour @moumalnatour).
For three years since October 7, this behavior has been excused, minimized, or dismissed as fringe. In reality, it has become a recurring and alarming trend across North America, Europe, and Australia. As Palestinians in Gaza increasingly reject Hamas, segments of diaspora Arab, Palestinian, and Muslim communities have embraced the group as the embodiment of “resistance” and the supposed voice of Gazans.
Equally troubling is how academics, journalists, influencers, activists, politicians, and celebrities have obscured these pro-Hamas sentiments by presenting them as merely advocacy for Palestinian rights. Some have relied on “cultural relativism” that blurs basic moral distinctions. Yet there is nothing complicated about condemning Hamas’s torture of Palestinians, theft of aid and resources, disastrous two-decade rule, decision to launch October 7, devastation of Gaza, and perpetration of the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.
The tolerance of Islamist extremism in Western societies, and the reluctance to confront openly hateful and pro-terror rhetoric, risks deepening polarization and instability. It is long past time to scrutinize pro-Hamas ideology, activism, and narratives that have gained traction among politicians, students, journalists, and protest movements. Nor is it “racist” or “Islamophobic” to oppose campaigns targeting Jewish-owned businesses or attempts to pressure businesses into adopting political litmus tests. Democratic societies should confront extremism consistently, regardless of who promotes it.

Bill Maher rant on America's biggest problem.
Bill Maher: Before I demonstrate how sadly easy it is to prove the dumbness that’s dragging us down, let me just say that ignorance has life-and-death consequences.
On the eve of the Iraq War, 70% of Americans thought Saddam Hussein was personally involved in 9/11. Six years later, 34% still did.
Or look at the healthcare debate going on now. At a recent town hall meeting in South Carolina, a man stood up and told his congressman, “Keep your government hands off my Medicare,” which is kind of like driving cross-country to protest highways.
This country is like a college chick after two Long Island iced teas. We can be talked into anything, like wars, and talked out of anything, like healthcare. We should forget the town halls and replace them with study halls.
Listen to some of these statistics. A majority of Americans cannot name a single branch of government or explain what the Bill of Rights is. Twenty-four percent couldn’t name the country America fought in the Revolutionary War. More than two-thirds of Americans don’t know what’s in Roe v. Wade, and two-thirds don’t know what the Food and Drug Administration does.
Some of this stuff you should be able to pick up simply by being alive. You know, the way the Slumdog kid knew about cricket. But not here.
Nearly half of Americans don’t know that states have two senators, and more than half can’t name their congressman. And among Republican governors, only three got their wife’s name right on the first try.
People moan about taxes and spending, but they have no idea what their government spends money on. The average voter thinks foreign aid consumes 24% of our federal budget. It’s actually less than 1%.
A third of Republicans believe Obama is not a citizen, and a third of Democrats believe George Bush had prior knowledge of the 9/11 attacks, which is an absurd sentence because it contains the words “Bush” and “knowledge.”
Sleep tight.
Sarah Palin says she would never apologize for America, even though a Gallup poll says 18% of us think the sun revolves around the Earth. No, they’re not stupid. They’re interplanetary Mavericks.
And I haven’t even brought up religion. But here’s one fun fact I’ll leave you with: Did you know only about half of Americans are aware that Judaism is an older religion than Christianity?
That’s right. Half of America looks at books called the Old Testament and the New Testament and cannot figure out which one came first.
I rest my case. Thank you.
