An investigation by a British newspaper has found growing evidence of strict political discrimination in the housing rental market, a trend leaving many pro-Brexit and Conservative voters out in the cold. The political discrimination against conservative-minded people in the UK is widespread on housing sites like SpareRoom, the report claims. The Telegraph found advertisements saying “No smokers or Tories” and another ad from a supposedly “open-minded and tolerant” landlord who said that “in most cases I couldn’t see myself living with a Tory”.“Recently we have seen more mentions of political preferences in adverts, which unfortunately is a sign of the times we live in. Choosing who you live with based on how they vote isn’t counted as discrimination however we’d always encourage people to say who they do want to live with, rather than who they don’t,” said a spokesman from SpareRoom. The emerging trend … [Read more...] about F*ck the Tories: The Rise of Anti-Brexit Apartment Rentals in the UK

Leader of the Labour Party Jeremy Corbyn refused nine times to say if he would back his own proposed renegotiated soft-Brexit deal. The socialist has pledged that if he becomes prime minister, he will go back to Brussels and renegotiate the exit agreement to include a customs union with the EU and a close relationship to the Single Market — essentially a Brexit in name only. He would then put this deal against Remain in a second referendum with no credible Leave option.Labour’s position on whether it would campaign for a super-soft Brexit or Remain has mainly been indicated as being anti-Leave. In September, leading party figure Emily Thornberry admitted she would lobby against the deal and the month prior, Diane Abbott said that she would also be campaigning for Remain. The party’s official position was not clarified during last night’s leadership debate between Jeremy Corbyn and Boris Johnson. The Labour leader had refused to answer whether he would back … [Read more...] about Corbyn Refused to Say if He Would Back His Soft Brexit Deal in a Second Referendum

Jeremy Corbyn has said that if Labour wins the next election, he would renegotiate a Brexit deal even softer than Theresa May’s withdrawal treaty and would “give the people a final say” in a second referendum where the options would be the soft Brexit deal versus remaining in the EU. Selling himself as a saviour of democracy by offering an alternative to Conservative Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s “undemocratic manoeuvrings” that threaten to “crash Britain out of the EU” in a clean break or to the “undemocratic” Liberal Democrat leader Jo Swinson who aims to “overturn the 2016 referendum”, the far-leftist wrote in The Guardian that he will restore the power of the voice of the people by making Britons vote again on membership of the EU.“The people of Britain deserve to have their say in a general election. Only a Labour government would end the Brexit crisis by taking the decision back to the people. We … [Read more...] about Corbyn Would Hold Second Referendum on Soft Brexit Deal vs Remain as PM

The three asylum seekers, from Afghanistan, Iraq, and Iran, in custody are aged 15, 16, and 26 and are three of five suspects in the case. Investigators say there could have been even more people involved in the suspected gang rape, newspaper Münchner Merkur reports.Investigators say the German teen had met one of the suspects on Halloween night and agreed to join him and his group. Once they arrived at the home of one of the asylum seekers, the men raped the girl. Toxicology examinations later found drugs in the girl’s blood, with investigators suggesting the suspects may have drugged her before the assault.

A teenage girl was drugged, raped, and murdered by a gang of “Africans and Arabs”, according to claims by an alleged witness, with far-left protestors subsequently preventing Italy’s interior minister from visiting the crime scene to pay respects. The body of the teen, identified locally as Desirée Mariottini, was discovered in an abandoned building site in the Italian capital’s San Lorenzo area on October 19th, Il Giornale reports.Investigators initially believed that the 16-year-old had died of a drug overdose, as the area in which her body was found was known to be a den for homeless and drug addicts and she has drugs in her system. However, new leads and witness testimony point to an entirely different scenario. Police now believe that the teen had been raped by multiple men before her death after hearing from a Senegalese migrant who claimed to have witnessed the aftermath of the rape and alleged murder.
