A 200-page independent report just confirmed what the UK government spent two decades refusing to say out loud: that over 250,000 underage British girls were systematically raped and trafficked — and that the gangs doing it, quote, 'operated with either the active or passive consent of public authorities.' Right? That's not a conspiracy theory. That is now a documented, publicly funded, formal finding.SPONSOR: Lear CapitalGold and silver are at all-time highs as central banks, sovereign funds, and major institutions like Morgan Stanley shift capital out of the dollar and into precious metals.

A Memorandum of Understanding outlined by the United States suggests it has found common ground with Iran, but there are still questions about whether this preliminary deal achieves any more than the agreement signed when Barack Obama was president. Meanwhile Israel, the US partner in the recent war, faces the possibility of a stronger Iran and a new balance of power in the Middle East. We hear from Alon Ben Dah-veed, senior military correspondent for Israel's Channel 13. Also in the programme: the fuel shortages affecting Russian drivers as a result of the Ukraine war; an introduction to so-called 'micro-history'; and the death at the age of 99 of the last member of a leading British 'girl band' of the 1950s, the Beverley Sisters.(Photo: US President Donald Trump holds a press conference during the G7 Summit in Evian-les-Bains, France; Credit: REUTERS/Evelyn Hockstein)

Keir Starmer has called the firing of warning shots by a Russian warship at a British yacht sailing across the Channel on Tuesday ‘deeply concerning and reckless'. Russia's defence ministry said the yacht was on a ‘dangerous course' and several attempts were made to contact it – a claim disputed by the retired couple onboard the 40ft yacht.

The Rape Gang Inquiry report was released in England. It's more horrendous than anyone could imagine. They believe over 250,000 white British girls were trafficked in England. These crimes were committed by Muslim men, again, IN England. Every story they told of how this happened followed the same 3-step outline.

As details emerge about the lengths British politicians went to cover up migrant rape gangs, it's clear accountability needs to be the focus.

Tomorrow a by-election will be held in the parliamentary seat of Makerfield in Wigan, one of three taking place. Makerfield has found itself at the epicentre of British politics - and the result could decide the next prime minister. We look at what the polls are saying about the way women in the area are saying they will vote and what is impacting that decision. Nuala McGovern is joined by BBC's political correspondent Alex Forsyth. Scotland are one of the home nations, alongside England and Ireland, hosting the Women's T20 Cricket World Cup currently taking place here. The Scots got their campaign underway last Saturday against Ireland with an historic win. Nuala is joined by the CEO of Cricket Scotland, Trudy Lindblade and by one of their team, all-rounder, Priyanaz Chatterji to talk about the growth of the women's game in Scotland and what this tournament means for the future of the game. Peptides have become a new buzzword in the wellness industry. Social media influencers have spoken about using them for optimising performance in the gym and improving their appearance, and they're increasingly popular with women. But some unregulated peptides haven't been through clinical trials and could be ineffective, or even harmful. Nuala is joined by BBC Health reporter Ruth Clegg, who has been looking into the way women are using peptides, and Adam Taylor, Professor of Anatomy at the University of Lancaster.

This week, we kick things off with the successful Freedom 250 celebration at the White House. Patriotism, festivities, and enough red, white, and blue to make Uncle Sam ask everyone to tone it down a notch. Apparently, America knows how to throw a birthday party.Speaking of parties, Barack Obama casually revealed that there were some pretty wild gatherings during his White House years. Which naturally leaves us wondering: were these classy soirées, or was somebody playing beer pong in the Lincoln Bedroom? We discuss the comments and speculate on what exactly "wild" means when you're living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.Then we head to the golf course, where Phil Mickelson reportedly found himself in the rough after allegedly behaving inappropriately with a woman and getting shown the clubhouse door. Apparently, "playing through" doesn't apply to personal conduct.Finally, across the pond, thousands of people in the United Kingdom took to the streets to voice concerns about immigration, national identity, and the future of their country. We break down the protests, the reactions, and why Europeans seem to have mastered the art of expressing frustration while standing in the rain.From White House celebrations to presidential party stories, golf course drama, and political unrest overseas, this episode has more twists than a British roundabout.So grab your favorite beverage, avoid getting kicked out of any country clubs, and remember: if someone says there were "wild parties" at the White House, everybody immediately starts wondering who was in charge of the playlist.

Investor and writer Jayant Bhandari offers a pessimistic assessment of current global geopolitics and the decline of Western civilization. Bhandari argues that the world is entering a period of extreme chaos characterized by persistent conflicts in Iran and Ukraine, as well as rising global inflation. He provides a particularly harsh critique of India, describing it as a dysfunctional and corrupt state that is currently de-industrializing despite international propaganda to the contrary. A central theme of the discussion is the impact of mass migration, which Bhandari claims is importing a “third-world mentality” that threatens the demographic and cultural stability of the West. In contrast, he praises East Asian nations like China and Japan for maintaining social homogeneity and suggests they represent the most stable future for investment. Ultimately, Bhandari warns individuals to diversify their assets and residencies to survive increasing state surveillance and societal decay.

//The Wire//2300Z June 15, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: TENTATIVE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING AGREED UPON BY THE UNITED STATES AND IRAN, AGREEMENT TO BE SIGNED ON FRIDAY. U.K. IMPLEMENTS SOCIAL MEDIA BAN FOR CHILDREN, ADULTS NOW REQUIRED TO SUBMIT TO DIGITAL ID TO PROVE THEY AREN'T CHILDREN.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: Last night, the United States and Iran allegedly came to an agreement regarding the Memorandum of Understanding to work toward a settlement to the war. Immediately after the announcement was made, Israeli forces conducted strikes in Beirut. President Trump himself admitted that this was an attack that should not have happened due to it disrupting the peace process. So far Iran has let this one go, and has not responded to the Israeli efforts to derail the agreement. The agreement is scheduled to be signed on Friday.Analyst Comment: As of right now, the Strait of Hormuz is NOT open. NAVCENT has posted an update reminding all merchant traffic that both blockades are still in place, and no change of orders has been transmitted yet from the White House. On Friday, an announcement will be made regarding an update to the status of shipping through the Strait.United Kingdom: Unrest continued throughout the nation, as multiple stabbing attacks have continued over the past few days. Riots and unrest continue in Northern Ireland as the police response has continued to grow over the weekend. Yesterday, two viral videos have fanned the flames throughout the region even more: one video showing police beating a handcuffed man, while another video showing the violent arrest of a 5-year-old child, have continued to highlight the priorities of British authorities.Separately, this morning PM Starmer announced a total social media ban for children under the age of 16. As of 2027, no one under the age of 16 will be allowed to use social media, and age verification laws will apply to everyone. Per the fact sheet provided by the British government, most adults will need to submit to Digital ID measures, to prove that they are not a child.Analyst Comment: For historical context, this has been on the menu for a while, ever since the Digital ID efforts ramped up months ago, resulting in free speech concerns. As it stands, this appears to be a sly way of indirectly introducing the same Digital ID regulations which generated much pushback years ago. By banning children from social media, adults will have to prove they aren't children, and to do so they'll have to provide ID. This is a very clever rebranding effort to introduce censorship, because adults, in proving that they aren't children will need to upload private information. The details of this under-16 ban have not been written in stone yet, but the U.K. has stated that the goal is to emulate Australia's model...which granted exceptions for Roblox and Discord, two of the biggest platforms where online predators tend to congregate to target children. For Australia, this confirmed beyond all doubt that their regulations were not at all about protecting children, but really about controlling adults with Digital ID and only allowing social media platforms that bend the knee to government. As a result, how the U.K. manages this situation will be heavily scrutinized, especially as speech crimes are being aggressively policed throughout the nation every day.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: So far, the exact terms of the Memorandum of Understanding to end the Gulf War are not entirely clear. The U.S. has not released the details, but the Iranians have released what they say the terms are. This happened just a few days ago as well when the Iranians released the plan, and President Trump denied the details as leaked. This time, Mehr News (a state-sponsored Iranian outlet) published the 14-point-plan again, and this is the only side that has published anything. Unless the White House rejects some of these details, this will be the working document until something is signed on paper this Friday.Allegedly, the ceasefire would extend for another 60 days while the following details are worked out. The American Naval blockade would be lifted within a month, and the US would commit to withdrawing forces from the region. The Strait of Hormuz would open (also within 30 days), and the U.S. would lift all Iranian sanctions. The U.S. would also release $24 billion of frozen Iranian funds (over a period of time). On the nuclear issue, Iran would agree to re-affirm what they already agreed to under previous treaties, promising to not develop nuclear weapons. There are also other terms which will probably be sticking points (such as the war in Lebanon), but right now this is the gist of the deal as the Iranians see it.As it stands...it doesn't look good for the United States. If these are indeed the genuine items that the United States has agreed to, this war will be very challenging to describe as an American victory. The deal boils down to returning to the way the situation was before the war began, with the only differences being the American lives lost, most American bases and long-range radar sites being destroyed, a whole lot of destruction in Iran itself, and the oil infrastructure in the Middle East being heavily degraded. This is why it's hard to believe that the U.S. (or Israel) would agree to this arrangement, and it's ironically also why the warhawks and everyone else can finally agree on one thing: If this is the plan, this is a capitulation on the part of the United States, there's simply no other realistic way to frame it.The final proof will be in the pudding this Friday, when the details of the agreement are actually signed and both sides agree to what's written on the page. The deal also being tied to Israeli operations in Lebanon is also a certain point of friction, as Israel does not consider itself party to the agreement between Iran and the United States. As a result, there's still plenty of time for the deal to be sabotaged before Friday, and even then, it will take months to determine whether or not peace actually remains throughout the region.Analyst: S2A1 Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground Disclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report. //END REPORT//

This week, Thomas sits down with journalist Matthew Green to explore the hidden effects of “shadow trauma” and what it takes to heal and repair after acting against your own ethics.From personal missteps to moral injury to ancestral and historical trauma, we all carry the weight of transgression. But often, the shame that accompanies this holds us back from integration and healing.Thomas and Matthew discuss how to move beyond isolation and repression to bring our vulnerabilities into safe, healing environments where we can reintegrate these fragmented shadow parts, repair relationships, and restore our connection to our true selves.✨ Watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:

Enoch Powell is one of the most polarising figures in modern British politics. His infamous ‘Rivers of Blood' speech – in which he warned that immigration would spark ethnic conflict – continues to shape some of today's most important debates on race, identity and immigration.Michael Gove and assistant editor Madeline Grant sit down with Simon Heffer, author of Like the Roman: The Life of Enoch Powell, to explore Powell's legacy. They examine how he became a model for populist rhetoric and discuss why understanding Enoch Powell is central to understanding the right today. This podcast was originally recorded as a live event.

Author and columnist Tomiwa Owolade joins Secrets of Statecraft to discuss his bestselling book This Is Not America and why Britain's conversation about race has become increasingly shaped by American ideas and assumptions. He argues that importing US concepts such as critical race theory, identity politics, and Black Lives Matter into a fundamentally different British historical and social context has distorted public debate, weakened social cohesion, and obscured the real sources of inequality. The conversation also covers cultural cringe, the future of wokeness, the rise of sectarian politics, anti-Semitism, social justice ideology, and the enduring power of American culture. It's a wide-ranging conversation about race, national identity, free inquiry, and whether Britain can rediscover a shared civic culture before its own culture wars become even more entrenched.

The Justice Department's pursuit of Prince Andrew over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein became a prolonged game of cat and mouse in which demands for cooperation were followed by denials, competing public statements and virtually no visible resolution. After Andrew declared in his disastrous 2019 BBC interview that he was willing to assist law enforcement, federal prosecutors said they repeatedly contacted his attorneys seeking an interview about Epstein's sex-trafficking operation. In January 2020, then–U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman publicly stated that Andrew had provided “zero cooperation,” directly contradicting the prince's claims of openness. Andrew's lawyers responded that he had offered to speak with investigators several times and accused the Justice Department of misleading the public, while also emphasizing that prosecutors had supposedly described him as a witness rather than a criminal target. The DOJ then escalated the dispute, saying Andrew had repeatedly declined an interview and had attempted to create the false impression that he was eager to help.The result was years of public maneuvering without the decisive confrontation that the seriousness of the allegations appeared to demand. Prosecutors reportedly explored formal legal channels to obtain Andrew's testimony through British authorities, but he was never compelled to sit for the kind of comprehensive interview American investigators said they wanted. Andrew remained protected by geography, royal status, expensive attorneys and the practical complications of forcing a senior British royal to cooperate with a foreign investigation. Meanwhile, each side could blame the other: Andrew maintained that he had offered assistance under appropriate conditions, while the DOJ insisted those offers never amounted to genuine cooperation. That pattern allowed Andrew to avoid a full public accounting while permitting the Justice Department to claim it had pursued him, creating the appearance of pressure without producing meaningful answers about what he knew, what he witnessed or why he remained so closely connected to Epstein after Epstein's conviction.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Break/Fix Podcast's mission is to preserve automotive living history and welcomes returning co-host Don Weberg from Garage Style Magazine alongside guest Wallace “Wally” Wyss, a longtime automotive writer turned fine artist. Wally recounts how early exposure to GM design chief Bill Mitchell and a British magazine feature on the Iso Grifo shifted him from poetry and art studies into advertising and then automotive journalism, including stints at Car Life and MotorTrend with vivid Sunset Strip stories. He explains how a chance ride in a 427 Cobra led to meeting Carroll Shelby, and launching a best-selling Cobra book and deep Shelby insights about Shelby's deal-driven approach. Wyss describes becoming a “barn find” hunter and author, then “accidentally” transitioning into painting exotic and classic cars after selling a Shelby portrait, outlining his process, commissions, design critiques, and ongoing radio show, while reflecting on creativity, reinvention, and concerns about AI's impact on writing. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Meet Wallace Wyss 01:51 Early Influences Detroit and How Cars Spark Writing Path 05:15 MotorTrend Hustle Stories 07:39 First Cobra Book Breakthrough 12:02 Becoming "The Barn Find" Guy 19:08 Car Design Critiques & Most Beautiful Cars List 22:00 Vector and Jerry Weigert Tales 22:56 Roger Penske Corvette Story 24:53 Pitstop: "The Man In White" Origin Story 27:48 Accidental Art Career 33:55 Wally's Painting Process 36:28 Witnessing Car History 38:49 Advice And AI Fears; Shout Outs and Wrap Up! ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: Visit Our Website Become a VIP at: Patreon Online Magazine: Gran Touring Follow us on Social: Instagram

In October 2022, the British economy was in freefall. Liz Truss's mini-budget had sent the pound into a nosedive, mortgage rates were climbing at a terrifying speed, and the IMF had issued a public warning to the government to reverse course. It was, by any measure, a national crisis.Into that emergency stepped Sir Jeremy Hunt who, over a single weekend, dismantled almost the entirety of the economic programme he'd inherited.But that was just the latest chapter in a political career defined again and again by an extraordinary capacity to absorb difficulty and get on with the job. All while managing a private grief that would have broken most people in any role, let alone one of the most demanding in the country. The loss of his father, mother, and brother, all lost to cancer.His new book, Can We Be Rich Again? The Surprising Potential of Britain's Economy, is an act of deliberate optimism in a country that has largely forgotten how to be optimistic. Sir Jeremy Hunt joins Andy Coulson for a conversation about loss, resilience, reputation, and what it really takes to keep your nerve when everything is falling apart.POWERED BY KINGSLEY NAPLEYI know what it is to have the right legal support around you when facing a crisis.

 Benjamin L. Carp explains how the British specifically targeted three rebel captains—Amos Fellows, Abraham Patton, and Abraham Van Dyk—suspecting them of arson. Patton, a member of Washington's spy network, allegedly confessed on the gallows, stating he died for liberty and had accomplices in the burning of New York. Washingtonnotably supported these men and their families, acknowledging their service. He famously remarked that "Providence" or an "honest fellow" had achieved the strategic goal of destroying the city, a task the Continental Army could not officially undertake due to orders from the civilian government in Congress. (7)                          

H.W. Brands explains how, following the massacre in Poland, Roosevelt sought to modify the Neutrality Acts—laws passed in the mid-1930s specifically to prevent the types of economic and travel entanglements that had drawn the U.S.into World War I. Roosevelt argued that providing weapons to Britain and France would allow them to defend themselves, thereby keeping American troops out of the conflict. Lindbergh and anti-interventionist Senators like Burton Wheeler and Robert Borah remained deeply skeptical, believing Roosevelt was being "transactional" and dishonest about his true intent to lead the U.S. into a new European order. Roosevelt countered by attacking his critics early, using the word "isolation" like a "plague" and characterizing their views as well-meaning but ignorant. While some suggested Lindbergh as a potential 1940 Republican presidential candidate, he refused to enter politics, preferring to challenge the president through the airwaves. Roosevelt carefully shaped public opinion, fearing the type of backlash Woodrow Wilson faced for getting too far ahead of the populace. When France fell in just six weeks to the German Blitzkrieg in 1940, Lindbergh felt vindicated, arguing that American troops would have merely been trapped on the beaches. Meanwhile, Winston Churchill manipulated Roosevelt with warnings that a falling British government might surrender its fleet to Germany, successfully pressuring the president to send American destroyers to Britain. (3)1927

H.W. Brands describes how, by the summer of 1939, the destruction of Poland by German and Soviet forces confirmed that war was imminent, prompting Roosevelt to invoke neutrality laws as required by Congress. Despite his desire for privacy, Lindbergh began using his celebrity status to secure national radio airtime, feeling a duty to prevent Americafrom repeating what he viewed as the "mistake" of the First World War. His father, a former congressman, had been driven out of politics for opposing American intervention in 1917, a legacy that instilled in Lindbergh a profound distrust of politics as a "mean business" where truth was rare. Lindbergh argued that Britain and France were launching a war they could not win and would eventually force the United States into a permanent presence in Europe. During this period, he consulted with figures like Herbert Hoover, who suggested forming a committee that would eventually become "America First," and visited the "House of Morgan" through his wife's family connections. British observers, such as Harold Nicolson, were less impressed, dismissing Lindbergh as a "schoolboy" who possessed technical talent but lacked a mature understanding of diplomacy and the complexities of governing a great empire. Lindbergh remained unfazed by British criticism, asserting that he was an American and that his country's interests were distinct from those of the British Empire. (2)1936

Benjamin L. Carp notes that in 1783, a formal British inquiry led by General Guy Carleton failed to reach a definitive conclusion on whether the fire was an accident or intentional design. The records of this inquiry were lost to official British archives for over a century. Over time, American historians and biographers sought to exonerate Washington, often downplaying the fire or blaming "bad apples" rather than a coordinated military plot. Despite the strong circumstantial evidence of rebel involvement, the event remains an unresolved chapter of the American Revolution, with both sides eventually letting the controversy fade in favor of diplomacy. (8)1780

Benjamin L. Carp explains how, following the defeat at the Battle of Long Island, Washington and his officers faced a critical decision regarding New York's fate. General Nathanael Greene urged Washington to burn the city to prevent the British from using it as a vital winter base and naval port. However, John Hancock and the Continental Congressexplicitly ordered Washington to leave the city intact to protect property and the rebel reputation. Washington later lamented this as a "capital error," privately agreeing with the strategic necessity of destroying the city to deprive the enemy of its many advantages. (2)1761 PARIS

Benjamin L. Carp explains how the British specifically targeted three rebel captains—Amos Fellows, Abraham Patton, and Abraham Van Dyk—suspecting them of arson. Patton, a member of Washington's spy network, allegedly confessed on the gallows, stating he died for liberty and had accomplices in the burning of New York. Washingtonnotably supported these men and their families, acknowledging their service. He famously remarked that "Providence" or an "honest fellow" had achieved the strategic goal of destroying the city, a task the Continental Army could not officially undertake due to orders from the civilian government in Congress. (7)1776

Benjamin L. Carp explains that following the blaze, the British detained several suspects found with "combustibles" like gunpowder and turpentine-soaked matches. While Washington officially claimed ignorance regarding the fire's origin, he privately celebrated the outcome. A notable figure associated with this period is Nathan Hale, who was executed as a spy just one day after the fire. Although most historians conclude Hale did not set the fires, the coincidence of his execution and reports of a "New England captain" caught in the act led many at the time to link him to the arson. (5)1776

Benjamin L. Carp describes how the fire erupted between midnight and 1:00 a.m. on September 21, 1776, near White Hall Slip. While some attributed it to a drunken accident, British witnesses on nearby warships reported seeing flames ignite at 15 to 20 separate points simultaneously. This multiplicity of ignition sites strongly suggested a coordinated design by rebel saboteurs. The city was particularly vulnerable because firefighting equipment was in disarray and the alarm bells had been removed to be melted down for Continental Army cannons, leaving the few remaining watchmen unable to sound a general alarm. (3)

H.W. Brands describes how, in early 1941, Roosevelt introduced the Lend-Lease Act (HR 1776), a bill that ironically shared its name with the year of American independence but intended to "marry America's future to Britain's future." Because Britain was running out of cash, Roosevelt argued that the U.S. should lend or lease weaponry to ensure they didn't go down for lack of funds. He was aided by a sentimental shift in American public opinion, driven by Edward R. Murrow's broadcasts which portrayed the "stubborn British" as heroic underdogs fighting for democracy. Simultaneously, a covert information war was being waged by William Stephenson, the director of British propaganda in America, who worked with William "Wild Bill" Donovan to manipulate U.S. opinion with the administration's blessing. While Roosevelt publicly complained about German propaganda, his own administration used unacknowledged stories and rumors to move Americans toward war. Lindbergh called out this hypocrisy, arguing that aiding Churchill—an "unreconstructed" imperialist—was not a defense of democracy but a defense of British rule in places like India. Roosevelt even utilized a forged map, allegedly showing a German plan to reorganize Latin America and replace the Bible with Mein Kampf, to stir fear. Lindbergh's diary reveals his deep intuition that every step away from neutrality was a calculated move toward war, regardless of the president's stated desire for peace. (5)1941

Benjamin L. Carp discusses his book on the 1776 fire. As George Washington enters New York in the spring of 1776, he finds a politically fractured and largely depopulated city. Most residents had fled to avoid the coming conflict, leaving the town diminished. Washington remains suspicious of loyalist pockets while the British Navy controls the harbor. The segment highlights rebel outrage following the British burning of Charles Town and Falmouth, setting a tense backdrop for the eventual Manhattan conflagration. (1)1760

H.W. Brands explains how, in May 1941, Roosevelt declared an "unlimited national emergency," putting American industry and the public mind on a wartime footing. This move escalated the "moral war" against Germany and effectively criminalized dissent, as Roosevelt began labeling his critics "copperheads" and "fifth columnists"—terms implying disloyalty or treason. Lindbergh felt this was a dangerous overreach, noting that his father had been hounded by the Justice Department for similar dissent during World War I. The administration intensified its pressure, with the FBItapping America First Committee phones and British agents attempting to sabotage their gatherings. Roosevelt even misrepresented the Greer incident, claiming a German submarine had fired unprovoked on an American ship, when in fact the Greer was actively hunting the submarine. On September 11, 1941, during a rally in Des Moines, Iowa, a desperate Lindbergh made a fatal rhetorical error. He identified three groups pushing for war: the British, the Rooseveltadministration, and Jewish Americans. Although he stated their sympathies were understandable, his mention of "American Jews" allowed his enemies to brand him an anti-Semite and a "Nazi stooge." Even supporters like Herbert Hoover told him that while his words might be true, he was "wrong to say it" because he had moved himself politically out of bounds. (7)1940
