UAE Cancels $20 Billion Rafale Deal with France despite Telegram CEO's Release
"The diplomatic fallout from the arrest of Telegram CEO Pavel Durov continues to escalate, as the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has decided to cancel its US$20 billion deal with France for 80 Rafale fighter jets. The decision comes in the wake of Durov’s brief detention by French authorities, a move that has strained relations between the UAE and France, despite Durov’s release on bail.
According to reports in the public domain, the UAE, a close ally of Durov, has expressed its anger over the arrest, viewing it as an affront to its sovereignty and a violation of diplomatic norms. Durov’s connections in the UAE, particularly his relationship with the Emir’s son, Zayed Al Nahyan, have only intensified the situation. The UAE government’s decision to halt the Rafale deal, which was signed with French aerospace company Dassault in 2021, is seen as a direct response to Durov’s treatment.
The deal, which was valued at US$20 billion, was one of the largest defense contracts signed by the UAE in recent years. It included the delivery of 80 Rafale fighter jets, with the first batch expected to arrive in 2027. The cancellation of this deal not only represents a significant economic loss for France but also marks a sharp deterioration in UAE-France relations, which had been strong and cooperative until this incident."

'The Great Blood Pressure Scam' - A Midwestern Doctor
"•Aggressively treating everyone’s blood pressure is justified under the belief it prevents cardiovascular disease. However, in most cases it has never been proven to reduce heart disease—rather it only leads to a small reduction in strokes (hence why these medications were rebranded to treat “cardiovascular disease”).
•Many of the misunderstandings with heart disease arise from the fact that impaired circulation or damage to the blood vessels will cause blood pressure to go up and their correlation being misinterpreted to instead believe high blood pressure causes cardiovascular disease.
•In this article, we will discuss the actual causes of high blood pressure, the dangers of commonly used blood pressure medications, the safest pharmaceutical and natural ways to reduce blood pressure directly, and our preferred methods for treating the underlying causes of high blood pressure."

By charging the heads of social media companies with conspiracy for crimes allegedly committed on their platforms, it will only encourage Big Tech giants to censor and surveil users even more
This comes at a time in which the EU is becoming an increasingly hostile place for free speech and freedom of the press.

I am an old-school environmentalist -- a lover and protector of nature. The Democrats obsess about counting CO2, while neglecting urgent issues such as the chemicals in our food, soil, and water. Ironically, many carbon-motivated environmental policies actually harm the environment. Offshore wind damages marine animals, especially whales. Mining for lithium, coltran, silver, copper, rare earths etc. to make batteries is laying waste to vast ecosystems. I have found to my surprise that many people on the Trump team, including President Trump himself, care about the same environmental issues I do. Furthermore, these issues can help to unify our nation -- because almost everyone wants clean air, water, food, and soil. Almost everyone values thriving ecosystems and wildlife. Environment was a unifying issue in the 1960s, supported by Democrats and Republicans alike. I am committed to reviving that consensus in the next Trump administration.

Activists against the genocide in Gaza are being rounded up and arrested across Britain.
Meanwhile, 11 months in the ICC has still not issued arrest warrants for the people committing the genocide.
We’re already living in 1984.

TWO-TIER KEIR IS THE 'ROT THAT NEEDS TO BE CLEARED'.
He will MAKE things worse & it will NEVER get better. THAT'S THE PLAN! 80% of the UK did not vote for the man whose inflammatory & divisive rhetoric brands you a 'far right racist' for your legitimate concerns about our 'broken borders'.
He ignores knife crime, plans to bring in draconian laws & robs you of your hard earned cash, while leaving the elderly to freeze to death.
They want us DIVIDED & DISTRACTED, SLEEPWALKING INTO A DIGITALISED, DYSTOPIAN DICTATORSHIP.
Violence is not the answer; we shall stand once again, united lawfully & peacefully, against the tyrannical, selected (not elected) government & the unelected bureaucrats who control them, during the first PMQ's after summer recess.
If there was ever a time that taking a day off work was necessary, it is now, as we stand #UnitedNotDivided
