Today, a United Nations commission of inquiry has said that Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. A new report says there are reasonable grounds to conclude that four of the five genocidal acts defined under international law have been carried out since the start of the war with Hamas in 2023. Israel's foreign ministry said it categorically rejected the report, denouncing it as "distorted and false". Adam is joined by John Simpson - BBC World Affairs Editor and Presenter of Unspun World. And, an emergency debate has been held in the House of Commons into the appointment of Lord Mandelson as the UK Ambassador to the US. Adam, Chris and Alex discuss that and whether we are about to see a change of messaging from number 10 to ahead of the party conference.

#Starmer #Deportation #Mandelson #UKPolitics #TommyRobinson #Trump #JonGaunt Keir Starmer has failed again. His one in one out deal has collapsed as predicted. Meanwhile he accuses protestors of being Far RIGHT and London Mayor Sadiq Khan has joined in too. Both are out of step with the population who want none in and all illegals out. He should listen to Donald Trump when he arrives tonight and rip up the ECHR and start mass deportations now. But he won't as he is a spineless coward as proved by him refusing to go to the Commons and answer questions about his decision to appoint Peter Mandelson to Washington. He is playing for time as Parliament is about to go into recess for two weeks. He mustn't be allowed to dodge scrutiny.

With the return of Parliament, we found out how the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition handle each other -- and now we'll ask the House Leader how the government plans to handle Canadians' money. The exchanges between MPs today revolved around familiar themes on familiar issues; the CBC's Catherine Cullen tells us what's different this time around. Get this party re-started. The NDP returned to the House of Commons with a mere seven seats; we'll hear how that baker's half-dozen plans to avoid getting sidelined. Trump administration cuts shut down a consortium of doctors who specialize in childhood brain tumours -- which, in turn, means young cancer patients will be shut out of clinical trials in Canada. It's a marathon, not a sprint. But then it's a sprint. At the World Athletics Championships, the men's marathon ends with a top-speed race to the photo-finish -- a staggering achievement when most of us would have been staggering. An annual competition in San Francisco puts the "wha" in "guacamole" -- as contestants come through with some of the weirdest recipes imaginable when the chips are down.As It Happens, the Monday Edition. Radio that knows all guacamole champs have the same motto: "Mashin' accomplished".

Today, we're looking at the memorials from here in Canada and around the world as tributes pour in for Charlie Kirk following his assassination while speaking to students at Utah Valley University last week. Plus, chaos broke out at the 'Canada First' anti-mass immigration rally in Toronto, where police struggled to keep the peace between attendees and far-left counter-protesters who showed up to try to shut down the event. And finally, members of Parliament are returning to the House of Commons today, as Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberals attempt to show Canadians they're the right party for the job — while Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives plan to push for an end to the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and strengthen the criminal justice system.

Lindsay Hoyle - REPLAYThe charismatic Speaker of the House was on cracking form back in 2022.He shows how you can make the Commons function more effectively without sacrificing its unique atmosphere.

How Canadians can afford housing and groceries were top of the agenda as the House of Commons began its fall sitting. Opposition leader Pierre Poilivere was back in his chair after losing his seat in Ottawa, then winning a byelection in Alberta. He and Prime Minister Mark Carney faced off for the first time in Question Period. We'll have the details of how that went, and the plans and promises on the economy.And: Authorities in Utah get ready to lay charges for the murder of Charlie Kirk, but in the meantime release details about the investigation, including DNA evidence they say they found at the scene.Also: British opinion polls suggest people have a new concern eclipsing affordability — immigration. Many are expressing their anger at the illegal arrival of migrants across the English Channel — more than 30,000 so far this year.Plus: Pilot project to cut water use in Quebec, a man accused in the death of an Indian family in 2022 is now in custody, identifying the dead in Ukraine, and more.

We reflect on Commons' commitment to shaping spiritual passion. We explore Luke's account of Jesus being anointed by a woman, contrasting it with versions in Mark, Matthew, and John. The message delves into Luke's unique perspective, highlighting Jesus' point about forgiveness and love, and poses a key question: "Do you see this woman?" We consider how we learn faith from others and the particularity of our own spiritual journeys, emphasizing that our passions make our community and the world brighter. This reflection on Luke 7:36-47 encourages us to embrace grace and recognize the diverse forms of devotion in our lives. ★ Support this podcast ★

The Lundberg Institute marks the 15th anniversary of the California nonprofit Cancer Commons by dedicating its 15th annual lecture at Commonwealth Club World Affairs to a discussion of the unique approach Cancer Commons takes to helping cancer patients. Since its founding, Cancer Commons has delivered personalized, evidence-based guidance at no charge to more than 10,000 patients and caregivers, supported entirely by philanthropy. They provide patients and their care teams with the actionable information and data needed to make informed decisions, and help identify and access an individualized regimen of therapies that specifically target the molecular drivers of their disease. Cancer Commons also refers patients to a myriad of precision oncology services to help them navigate the cancer maze and minimize trial and error. As Cancer Commons helps patients in this way—identifying and accessing novel tests, treatments, and trials—we learn continuously from each patient's experience.  And then share that knowledge with the world. A Humanities Member-led Forum program. Forums at the Club are organized and run by volunteer programmers who are members of The Commonwealth Club, and they cover a diverse range of topics.

Today, politicians across the House of Commons have called for Lord Mandelson to resign as UK ambassador to the US over his connection to Jeffrey Epstein. Lord Mandelson acknowledged that there could be more "embarrassing" exchanges to come from his correspondence with Epstein who he described as his "best pal" in a letter for his 50th birthday. He likened his association with Epstein to "an albatross around my neck", adding he felt "profoundly upset that I was taken in" by a "charismatic criminal liar".Adam and Chris discuss what the revelations mean for the UK and US with Caitríona Perry, Chief Presenter for BBC News in WashingtonAnd presenter of the Security Brief, Mikey Kay talks to Adam about the state of global security after Poland shot down Russian drones that had entered it's air space overnight.

Prime Minister's Question Time, also referred to as PMQs, takes place every Wednesday the House of Commons sits. It gives MPs the chance to put questions to the Prime Minister or a nominated minister. In most cases, the session starts with a routine 'open question' from an MP about the Prime Minister's engagements. MPs can then ask supplementary questions on any subject, often one of current political significance.

With the announcement yesterday that the government would be prepared to suspend visas for countries that don't cooperate with the UK over deportations, has Shabana Mahmood shown she has what it takes to tackle immigration? Tim Shipman and James Heale join Patrick Gibbons to discuss whether the new home secretary can ‘stop the boats'.But, as the government ‘reset' continues, all eyes are on Labour's deputy leadership race. The most high-profile MPs to throw their hats in the ring are education secretary Bridget Phillipson, former shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry – and Lucy Powell, fresh from her sacking as Leader of the House of Commons. Is the race shaping up to be a one-on-one between a government loyalist and an outsider?Plus: as Kemi Badenoch is trying to talk about the economy we discuss whether she is more William Hague or Iain Duncan-Smith, and the Epstein scandal has pulled in our man–dy in Washington.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Capitalism: we hate it. It's taking over every section of life and commodifying the things we need to live. A lot of socialists talk about reviving and reclaiming the commons, and that sounds good to us, but what kind of institutions would we need to manage those commons? Don't worry, some economists have some ideas: monasticism. Read the article we're talking about in the show: https://revistes.ub.edu/index.php/HistoriaIndustrial/article/view/40930/40628Intro Music by Amaryah ArmstrongOutro music by theillogicalspoon https://theillalogicalspoon.bandcamp.com/track/hoods-up-the-low-down-technified-bluesSupport The Magnificast on Patreonhttp://patreon.com/themagnificastGet Magnificast Merchhttps://www.redbubble.com

MPs deliver their verdict on measures to prevent meat and dairy products being imported illegally into the UK.

We all know him as “Doubting Thomas”—but is that really fair? In this teaching, we take a closer look at Thomas' story in the Gospel of John and discover: • Why nicknames in the Bible matter (and how Thomas got his) • What his name “The Twin” really means • How his doubt might actually mirror our own journey of faith • Why doubt and faith are not opposites, but twinsFrom John 11 to John 20, Thomas shows us that faith isn't about certainty—it's about trust, risk, and the courage to keep following Jesus even when we're unsure.If you've ever wrestled with questions, wondered if doubt disqualifies you, or longed for proof that God's promises are real—this message is for you.

The new Glocal (Global and Local) Jeonnam Korean Education Center has been created through a partnership with the Jeollanamdo Office of Education in the Republic of Korea. Reana Wallace reports.

We're just about ready to move on from John Major but, before we do, we need to spend a few moments on two major events of his second premiership. One was a significant breakthrough, in Ireland, even if it didn't go to completion under his administration; the second, his back-to-basics campaign, was an unqualified disaster.The first of the two problems with ‘back-to-basics' is that going backwards isn't a slogan that appeals much to voters. The second is that it feels like an appeal to morality, and there couldn't have been a worse time for that kind of appeal in the Conservative Party: it was engulfed over the coming years by a whole string of scandals, many sexual but some more simply corrupt, involving such actions as MPs taking money to ask helpful parliamentary questions.On Ireland, Major got the peace process really motoring, with support not just from the Republic of Ireland but even more significantly, from the US. If things ground somewhat to a halt in the last year or so of his premiership, that was mostly down to the Provisional IRA ending its ceasefire, in response to Major's apparent over-readiness to accommodate the Northern Ireland Unionists. That, in turn, was mostly down to his having lost his parliamentary majority and therefore having to depend on the Unionists to cling on to office.That he did, calling the 1997 general election at very close to the last possible moment. But the atmosphere of sleaze created by the scandals, the unpopularity of moves such as railway privatisation, and the perception that the Tories were increasingly split (over Europe) sank his party in voters' views. The election, on 1 May 1997, gave a landslide Commons majority, even larger than Thatcher's, to Tony Blair and Labour – or, to use his language, New Labour. He reckoned Labour had won thanks to ‘a vote for the future'. It looks like going forward to the future resonated better with voters than heading back to basics.Illustration: John Major at the 1993 Conservative party conference, detail from a photograph by Malcolm Gilson/Rex Features, from 'The Guardian'Music: Bach Partita #2c by J Bu licensed under an Attribution-NonCommercial-No Derivatives (aka Music Sharing) 3.0 International License

Diese Episode ist ein Weckruf für alle, die Mobilität, Klimapolitik und technologische Transformation ernsthaft global und gerecht denken wollen. Themen dieser Episode: Fallstudien und toxische Strukturen Wie „grüne“ Projekte im Globalen Süden – etwa der Lithiumabbau in Südamerika, Windparks in Namibia oder Solarprojekte im Maghreb – lokale Gemeinschaften massiv beeinträchtigen und durch Enteignung, Wassermangel und Missachtung indigener Rechte Ausbeutung fortsetzen. Welche Rolle der sogenannte „ökologische Imperialismus“ spielt: Das Rechtfertigungsnarrativ, das „grüner Energie“ alles erlaubt – ohne zu hinterfragen, wie sie gewonnen wird und ihren Verbrauch einzuhegen. Machtverhältnisse und koloniale Kontinuitäten Inwiefern die heutige Klimapolitik und Technologieförderung koloniale Strukturen reproduzieren. Wie multilaterale Handelsabkommen, Rohstoff-Abhängigkeiten und makroökonomische Regeln aus der Sicht des Globalen Südens gestaltet sind – und wie Alternativen aussehen könnten. Warum sich Konzerne und politische Institutionen mit dem Begriff „grün“ moralisch aufwerten, während die Auslagerung ökologischer Kosten unserer Lebensweise in andere Weltregionen weiterläuft. Gerechtigkeit und Widerstand Welche globalen, dezentralen und demokratischen Ansätze das Buch als Alternativen vorstellt: Bioregionale Kreisläufe, Energiekooperativen, Commons-basierte Ansätze, Klimareparationen. Warum indigene und ländliche Gemeinschaften nicht als „rückständig“, sondern als zentrale Akteure einer gerechten Zukunft verstanden werden. Warum der Begriff „Klimaneutralität“ oft eine rhetorische Fassade bleibt – und was echter Wandel bedeuten würde. Ob es bereits Positivbeispiele für gerechtere Klimapolitik gibt – und wo die größten Hebel liegen. Handlungsspielräume und Visionen Welche politischen Hebel demokratische Gesellschaften – und speziell die EU – jetzt in Bewegung setzen müssten, um grünen Kolonialismus zu stoppen. Was wir als Bürger*innen tun können: von Konsumkritik über kommunale Partnerschaften und Bürger*inneninitiativen für Klimagerechtigkeit von unten bis hin zu solidarischer Wissensarbeit. Warum Medien, Wissenschaft und Zivilgesellschaft eine neue Rolle einnehmen müssen – jenseits von Tech-Euphorie oder Schuldzuweisungen. Und schließlich: Was Miriam selbst Hoffnung gibt – und welche überraschenden Reaktionen sie auf das Buch bisher erlebt hat.

Zack Polanski is the fresh face of the Green Party. He already sits on the London Assembly – the capital's elected body that scrutinises the activities of the Mayor. But he's got his eyes set on the Commons – with ambitions to join the four Green MPs already there.Polanski wants to offer a different approach to politics with policies that include a wealth tax on billionaires and renationalising water companies. And to be a threat to both Labour and Reform UK.To find out more about Polanski's ambitions, Niall Paterson is joined by Caroline Russell, Green leader of the London Assembly who has worked alongside him and backed his campaign, plus George Monaghan, commissioning editor at the New Statesman. Producer: Soila Apparicio

It's the first PMQs back after the summer break and Angela Rayner is fighting for her political life. Kemi Badenoch tells the prime minister to 'grow a backbone' and sack his deputy.

Prime Minister's Question Time, also referred to as PMQs, takes place every Wednesday the House of Commons sits.

In most cases, the session starts with a routine 'open question' from an MP about the Prime Minister's engagements. MPs can then ask supplementary questions on any subject, often one of current political significance.

Danny Shaw and Tim Shipman join Lucy Dunn for today's Coffee House Shots to talk about the government's reforms to the asylum system. Having worked with Yvette Cooper before, Danny argues that the reforms are a great approach for a long-term solution – but he worries that they are not bold enough for the public mood. Is Labour putting procedure above politics? And, with the migrant hotel issue bubbling under the surface, is the public's patience wearing thin?Plus: as Zack Polanski is elected leader of the Green Party, is Labour about to be out-flanked by two radical populists to its left? The Greens and Jeremy Corbyn's new party could now pose as much of a threat on the left, as Nigel Farage's Reform is doing on the right.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

What does Romanticism have to do with communism, enclosure, and the commons today? In this episode we speak with Joseph Albernaz, author of Common Measures: Romanticism and the Groundlessness of Community, about the radical lineage running from Blake and Hölderlin to Marx and Bataille. We explore how Romantic literature conceived “groundless community”—a poetic and ecological alternative to enclosure and collective identity—and how those ideas reverberate through scene-shaping thinkers like Bataille, Derrida, Nancy, and Moten. Along the way we trace the Commons not as a nostalgic relic but as an ethics of excess and openness that surges beneath modern property and identity structures.Common Measures: Romanticism and the Groundlessness of Community: https://www.sup.org/books/literary-studies-and-literature/common-measuresFall 2025 at AHRC: https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/fall-2025Support the showSupport the podcast:https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcast Boycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/ Join The Schizoanalysis Project: https://discord.gg/4WtaXG3QxnSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438 LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.com​Revolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.com​Split Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/​Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/

It's Tuesday, August 26th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Women in India raped, murdered, and secretly buried A temple maintenance man in India is under arrest, after he testified of hundreds of women who were allegedly raped, murdered, and secretly buried around the small religious town of Dharmasthala. The BBC reports that nearly 100 bone fragments of human remains have already been found at two spots the man identified. The employee says he worked for the temple administration between 1995 and 2014, when he was allegedly coerced into burying the bodies. In 2025, 950 attacks on Christians in India For the first five months of 2025, Open Doors reports 950 attacks on Christians in India, which accounts for a rate of 2,300 per year. According to this reliable source, “These incidents included attacks, threats to abandon the Christian faith, excommunication, social boycotts, halting prayer services and church closures. Throughout India, 200 cases have been filed against pastors and believers based on fabricated conversion allegations.” India rated as the worst in The Worldview's international morality index  -- or the Evil Index -- released last month. India rated high in persecuting Christians, corruption perceptions, as well as supporting abortion and homosexuality. Most evil nations vs. Best behaved nations The highest rated nations for immorality were India, North Korea, Mexico, Columbia, Vietnam, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar, Somalia, Nicaragua, China, and Nigeria. Best nations on the list were Armenia, Eastern European nations, Israel, Japan, and Singapore. Among European nations, Russia, Greenland, and Belgium were rated poorly. Switzerland and Ireland rated best on this International Morality Index.  The nation of Chile lost the most ground over the last eight years. The country was rated at the top of the morality index eight years ago, and has dropped to the 66th position, due largely to approving abortion in 2017, and adopting homosexual faux-marriage in 2022.   The International Morality Index considers nations on the basis of the sixth, seventh, and eighth commandments of God's law as well as the persecution of Christians.  John 1:29 says, “But let us remember, this is why Jesus came. . . John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, ‘Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!'” Kenyan pro-lifers object to Bill Gates' abortion kill pills Kenyan pro-lifers have issued a petition addressed to Kenya's Ministry of Health, complaining of IPAS Africa Alliance's distribution of abortion kill pills throughout the country.   The petition accuses IPAS of breaking Kenya's laws, and flooding schools and pharmacies with the kill pill.   The Citizen Go petition notes that “Kenya's laws protect unborn life, but IPAS is exploiting loopholes. They hand out abortion pills without scans, prescriptions, or medical supervision.” IPAS Africa Alliance is reportedly funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Mexican drug cartel leader pled guilty “Be sure your sins will find you out.” That's what Number 32:23 warns. The founder of the largest drug cartel in the world, Mexican cartel kingpin Isamel “El Mayo” Zambada, pled guilty to federal charges yesterday, reports the Associated Press. He is charged with organizing a drug smuggling operation into the US, called the Sinaloa cartel.   His partner Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was found guilty of similar charges in 2019. The Mexican Sinoloa cartel is known for assassinations, tortures, and kidnappings — terrorizing parts of the southern border areas of Mexico and Texas. Today, first time home purchase costs double rent For the first time in almost 20 years, the price of buying an entry-level home is double the expense of renting. Austin, Denver, Las Vegas, and Phoenix are some of the worst places for unaffordable properties for first-time buyers. 5% of Canadian deaths due to euthanasia Canada's Doctor Assisted Deaths now account for 5% of total deaths for the nation — more than the deaths attributed to diabetes and Alzheimer's combined.   Persons suffering solely from some sort of mental illness will be able to gain state medical help to kill themselves on March 17, 2027. In related news, the United Kingdom Bill on euthanasia has passed the House of Commons, and now has been presented to the House of Lords. United Kingdom legislature to dismiss jail time for violent offenders And finally, the United Kingdom government has come up with a plan to reduce prison overcrowding by dismissing jail time altogether for thousands of sex offenders, drug dealers, and violent criminals. The Sentencing Bill will be considered next month by parliament, reports The Times.  Exodus 22:1  provides God's wisdom in such matters. “If a man steals an ox or a sheep, and slaughters it or sells it, he shall restore five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, August 26th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).
