  • Euthanasia Plan for Disabled Babies

    The anti-human spirit of this Godless age grows stronger and more evil by the day. Doctors in Canada have said euthanasia for newborn babies who are born with disabilities “may be an appropriate treatment”, as concerns grow about the expansion of Canada’s euthanasia and assisted suicide programme.

    Speaking on behalf of the Quebec College of Physicians (CMQ) to the Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying, Dr Louis Roy previously recommended that euthanasia be introduced for babies with “severe deformations” and “very grave… medical syndromes”. Earlier this week, the CMQ reiterated their position.

    The CMQ added that, under these circumstances, the deliberate ending of a child’s life constitutes “care”.

    The proposal has prompted severe criticism, with Wesley J. Smith, a senior fellow at the Discovery Institute’s Center on Human Exceptionalism, saying “Canada has jumped so enthusiastically into the euthanasia abyss that I have little doubt that infanticide will eventually be allowed there. It’s only logical. If killing is an acceptable answer to suffering, why limit the killing to adults?”.

    The proposal comes as Canada’s euthanasia and assisted suicide programme continues to expand. In 2021, the Canadian Parliament repealed the requirement that the natural death of those applying for assisted suicide be “reasonably foreseeable”. This took place only five years after the original legislation allowing euthanasia and assisted suicide was passed in 2016.

    In 2024, legislation was introduced so that euthanasia and assisted suicide would be legal on the grounds of mental health alone in March 2027, whilst a Parliamentary committee in Canada recommended in 2023 that euthanasia be made available for children under certain conditions, and that it be made more easily available for prisoners.  

    If the CMQ recommendations on euthanasia for disabled babies are accepted, Canada would join the Netherlands, where euthanasia is permitted for babies before the age of one if they are thought to be suffering unbearably and with the consent of their parents. The Atlantic noted that the Netherlands was the first country to adopt the practice of euthanasia for babies “since Nazi Germany did so in 1939”. 

  • Drugs Curse in Dublin Primary Schools

    The curse of drugs has reached Irish children. Drug dealing is taking place in some of Dublin’s primary schools, a study has revealed.

    Blanchardstown Local Drugs & Alcohol Task Force (BLDATF), a community group which has been monitoring drug trends in the D15 postal district since 2014, said that 2023 was the first year drug dealing in local primary schools had been reported.

    At the beginning of last year, the Citizens’ Assembly on Drug Use called for the wholesale liberalisation of laws on the possession of dangerous drugs, including cocaine, cannabis, heroin, and opioids.

    The task force said that drug dealing was reported in “a number” of local primary schools, but declined to reveal exactly how many “to uphold confidentiality”.

    These schools, it observed, were based in a mixture of affluent and socio-economically deprived areas, “indicating that drug dealing is a community wide issue that crosses all socio-economic boundaries”.

    It continued: “The profile of primary school-based drug users includes males and females aged from 11 years, with cannabis herb, cannabis oil and nitrous oxide being used during school.”

    In 2023, according to BLDATF, drug dealing took place in all eleven mainstream local secondary schools and drug use among pupils is increasing.

    BLDAFT also noted that “the normalisation of drug use has featured prominently” since monitoring began. It added: “The common perception was that alcohol and drugs were widely used, risk free and socially acceptable.”

  • Sudden Deaths Soar Among Airline Pilots

    “Something happened in 2021” that has jeopardized air travel safety, according to a disturbing report by Dr. Kevin Stillwagon, a retired airline pilot and immunology expert. 

    Mounting evidence points to the COVID-19 vaccinations that airlines, acting under pressure from the U.S. government, mandated or otherwise coerced their cockpit, cabin, and ground crews into taking.   

    Since 2021, there has been a marked increase in deaths of “younger” airline pilots while long-term disabilities for pilots have skyrocketed. All of this has been accompanied by an astronomical increase of near-miss incidents at the nation’s airports.  

    “Incapacitations of pilots are definitely increasing, especially in younger pilots,” Stillwagon said in a video discussion with Nicolas Hulscher, an epidemiologist and administrator at the McCullough Foundation

    “There was a 40% increase in pilots dying early – before mandatory retirement age of 65 – in 2021,” Stillwagon said.

    “Starting in 2021, pilot long-term disabilities have tripled,” he noted. “Prior to 2021, there was only one near-miss at the Washington National Airport (DCA).  But after 2021, there were 28 near-misses per year.” 

    Stillwagon maintains that from the outset, the mRNA COVID-19 shots were illegally forced upon the nation’s airline pilots.  

    “They were illegal because you cannot put an experimental product into a pilot, as found in the ‘Aeromedical Advice Manual,’ given to all aeromedical examiners,” he pointed out.  

  • UK Culture Secretary in Trans Row

    The UK Culture Secretary has sparked a major row by wearing a t-shirt with a controversial slogan promoting transgender ideology.

    Lisa Nandy attended the ‘Pride’ march in her constituency of Wigan wearing a top with the words “protect the dolls” on it. ‘Doll’ is a slang term referring to certain men who identify as female.

    Nandy’s actions sparked widespread criticism, with Fiona McAnena, Director of Campaigns at women’s rights charity Sex Matters, commenting: “No elected representative of the public – let alone a government minister – should be promoting the slogan of campaigners who are calling for men to be able to identify into any space for women, even those needed most such as toilets, changing rooms, refuges and prisons.

    “The Secretary of State with responsibility for civil society should know better than to align with a movement which calls for the law to be flouted. This is naive at best.”

    LabourLGB, a group that campaigns for LGB rights, wrote to Nandy stating: “you hold a position of great responsibility and influence and should be setting the standard for upholding the law as it has now been clarified by the Supreme Court. It is important that you wield that influence with complete impartiality, not favouring one tiny minority group over the rights of all others.”

    Women’s Rights Network – Greater Manchester posted on social media: “it would appear that her priorities are not the protection of women & girls in line with the Supreme Court but those that seek to break the law”.

  • Dad Celebrates Cancer Survival

    A father-of-two is celebrating, five years on from being given a terminal diagnosis of just months.

    Matt Eamer from Surrey was rushed to hospital in 2020, where surgeons removed two-thirds of his bowel during an emergency operation. A few days later, they confirmed his diagnosis of stage four cancer. However, following new treatment expected to buy him a few more months, the cancer disappeared.

    Under Kim Leadbeater’s Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, patients deemed to be terminally ill and with less than six months to live would be allowed to receive help to kill themselves. The legislation will be debated in the House of Lords later this year.

    Matt said: “I can still remember the person’s voice when she phoned and said, ‘the plan for your diagnosis has changed… we’re talking months not years from a survival point of view’”.

    He explained how, on his 40th birthday, he was told that his treatment had failed and the cancer had advanced further: “It was a very dramatic, movie-like point. It was a pivotal change. They said, ‘we’ve gone in, it’s gone further, we’re going to try these new drugs.’ My wife Sarah collapsed to the floor.”

    Now, five years on, he is still undergoing treatment but clear on cancer. Matt plans to take part in Sir Chris Hoy’s charity cycle in September to raise money for Bowel Cancer UK. He said: “It’s marking a milestone in a meaningful, positive way.”

  • Prem Baby Is Now Champion Powerlifter

    A South African woman who was born prematurely, weighing only 640 grams, is now a record-holding powerlifter at the age of 23.

    Faith Lehmensich, born at only 29 weeks gestation, was “so tiny she could fit in the palm of my hand”, according to her mother, Andrea. Now, 23 years later, Faith is a talented powerlifter who won the female junior title at the Amateur World Powerlifting Congress (AWPC) last year. This year, she broke the junior world record in her class for the squat, a record which had stood for 15 years. 

    Andrea said that, while pregnant, she developed pre-eclampsia, a condition that can cause serious complications during pregnancy. 

    “During the pregnancy the doctors tried to push me as far as possible, but there came a time where they said ‘If we don’t take her out now she’ll be dead by the weekend.’ They told me that she only had a 10 percent chance of survival”, she said. 

    Baby Faith was frequently admitted to the intensive care unit with infections and developmental problems, which Andrea described as “heart-wrenching”. 

    Thankfully, Faith survived, and three months later her parents were finally able to bring her home, weighing only 1.7 kilograms at this stage.

    Faith is currently training for the World Powerlifting Championships, which are being held in South Africa in November. Her goal, she said, is “To become a world champion, and to become the best in the world”.

  • Trump Admin Condemns UK Protest Bans

    The U.S. State Department has put the United Kingdom on notice for infringing on the free speech of pro-life English subjects, calling it an affront to the “shared values” between the two nations.

    The Telegraph reported that the State Department issued a statement accusing one of its closest geopolitical allies of “egregious violation of the fundamental right to free speech,” specifically citing “many ‘buffer zone’ cases in the UK, as well as other acts of censorship throughout Europe.”

    “The UK’s persecution of silent prayer represents not only an egregious violation of the fundamental right to free speech and religious liberty but also a concerning departure from the shared values that ought to underpin US-UK relations,” a spokesperson said. “It is common sense that standing silently and offering consensual conversation does not constitute harm.”

    The rebuke refers to the UK’s establishment of “bubble” or “buffer” zones around abortion facilities, ostensibly to protect individuals entering or exiting them from “harassment, abuse and intimidation.” In practice, however, they have led to crushing fines against peaceful pro-life activists.

    Earlier this year, retired scientist Livia Tossici-Bolt was found guilty and ordered to pay prosecution costs of £20,000 ($25,777.34 USD) for holding up a sign that read “here to talk, if you want to” within 150 meters of the BPAS abortion center in Bournemouth. Rose Docherty, a 75-year-old Scottish grandmother, was arrested under similar circumstances, but charges were dropped amid international outcry.

    A UK government spokesman responded with a brief statement that “free speech is vital for democracy, including here in the UK, and we are proud to uphold freedoms while keeping citizens safe.”

    In May, the Trump administration sent a State Department delegation to England to investigate the free speech situation, including meeting with Tossici-Bolt and Docherty and other similar victims, and report back on their findings to “affirm the importance of freedom of expression in the U.K. and across Europe.”

  • Girl Born at 27 Weeks Helps Neonatal Unit

    In a country rapidly running low on children, young people who give back to society are more valuable than ever. A young girl who was born 13 weeks premature is now raising money for the neonatal unit that saved her life.

    Summer Best was born at just 27 weeks gestation on 8 May 2015 in Manchester. She was critically ill and had to be put on a ventilator.

    During her time in hospital, Summer suffered from breathing difficulties, heart problems, and two bleeds on the brain. She was ventilated multiple times, received numerous different medications, and underwent several blood transfusions. After spending three months in hospital, she was finally able to go home. Her mother says she has suffered no lasting damage.

    “She’s our miracle”, said mum Rachel Best, recalling how doctors urged her to visit Summer urgently just one day after the birth. “I didn’t believe she would be coming home until she was about seven weeks – that’s when I started to think she was going to make it”.

    Now 10 years old, Summer is determined to give back to others. After learning about poverty at her school, she began “Summer’s Mission”, a project supporting local food banks and collecting essentials for children in need, including Easter eggs and Christmas selection boxes.

    Summer has also raised thousands of pounds for charities across Manchester and, most recently, has turned her attention to the neonatal unit that saved her life. She is fundraising to provide additional support for families and staff and to help refurbish the unit’s family room.

    “She loves giving back”, her mum said. “Though she doesn’t really realise just how much it’s helping others”.

    Despite having three fractures in her back following a fall from a horse, Summer recently completed a four-mile sponsored walk for the unit. She’s been so successful that she has also donated items to St Mary’s Hospital’s neonatal unit in Manchester.

    Summer said, “I’m really grateful for all the amazing businesses and people who always support me”.

    “It makes me so happy knowing they believe in me and are always there to help”.

    The survival rates for extremely premature babies like Summer have significantly improved in recent decades. A 2008 study looking at survival rates for a neonatal intensive care unit in London found that neonatal survival rates at 22 and 23 weeks gestation had improved over time. In 1981-85, no babies who were born at these gestational ages survived to discharge. However, by 1986-90, 19% did and this increased to 54% in the period 1996-2000.

    In the decade to 2019 alone, the survival rate for extremely premature babies born at 23 weeks doubled, prompting new guidance from the British Association of Perinatal Medicine (BAPM) that enables doctors to intervene to save premature babies from 22 weeks gestation. The previous clinical guidance, drafted in 2008, set the standard that babies who were born before 23 weeks gestation should not be resuscitated.

  • 28% of Gen Z Murdered in the Womb

    A horrifying 28% of Generation Z in the U.S. has been aborted, according to statistics pulled from the Guttmacher Institute that went viral this week.

    According to Guttmacher estimates for the number of abortions performed each year in the U.S. from 1997 to 2011, the birth years of Gen Z, about 19.5 million conceived human beings of that generation, have been killed through abortion. There are currently an estimated 69.3 million Gen Z members in the U.S.

    The most recent World Health Organization (WHO) data indicates the rate of abortion of Gen Z babies in the U.S. nearly matches the estimated percentage of preborn babies killed worldwide by abortion: 29%, or three out of every 10 pregnancies.

    Statistics from England and Wales show very similar abortion rates. “The percentage of conceptions leading to abortion was 29.7%; this is a rise from 26.5% in 2021 and the highest proportion on record,” an Office of National Statistics (ONS) report from 2022 data found.

    “I think that some things deserve to be said over and over and over again and in fact cannot be said often enough,” Dutch political commentator Eva Vlaardingerbroek remarked  in response to the viral statistic. “Especially when it comes to abortion, which to me is such an unequivocal evil. We have to repeat these facts all the time.”

    Vlaardingerbroek explained that the reason she always opposed abortion, even before converting to Catholicism and becoming a mother, is that “scientifically, intellectually, and morally speaking, the only valid, good faith, and consistent argument that one can make is that life begins at conception.”

    “That means a separate human being has been formed in the womb. The stage in which that life finds itself, or whether it’s (dependent) on the mother, or any other person for that matter, is not decisive for whether or not it has the right to life.”

    This means abortion kills “the most innocent being on the planet of the earth,” Vlaardingerbroek continued. “You kill something so fragile, so worthy of love and life. And I think that’s something that a lot of people don’t even want to admit to."

  • Abortionists Still Profiting in Pro-Life States

    While the pro-life cause is advancing in the UA, there is still a lot more to be done. Planned Parenthood affiliates in states considered pro-life bring in about the same amount of average income as those in pro-abortion states, showing that much more needs to be done to stop the nation’s largest abortion vendor, a new report finds.

    The American Life League (ALL) researched the revenue for 81 Planned Parenthood facilities in states considered pro-life and for 418 in pro-abortion states. The group views the phrase “pro-life states” skeptically, since it points out that even states with some restrictions have exceptions for abortion. Pro-lifers, however, stress that every preborn baby is deserving of protection no matter the circumstances of his conception. Direct abortion is also never medically necessary, as medical experts have affirmed.

    ALL explains, “America has no truly ‘pro-life’ states, as many still allow for abortions early in pregnancy and exceptions in all/most cases.”

    The group explained further:

    ALL found that the average income of the 41 Planned Parenthood affiliates in pro-abortion states is $43,389,872. However, 11 Planned Parenthood affiliates in “pro-life” states saw an average affiliate income of $41,208,358. Clearly there is not much difference in Planned Parenthood’s affiliate income in states with more abortion restrictions than those in states with little-to-no abortion restrictions.

    Affiliates refers to the overarching organization, while facilities is the individual building.

    ALL’s national director shared a message of warning to pro-life activists and groups.

    “I’ve heard life-advocates celebrate over states that have laws intended to protect preborn life at conception,” Katie Brown Xavios, stated in a news release. “[A]nd yet those same states have active Planned Parenthood facilities.”

    Xavios said the “exceptions” in the abortion prohibitions are exploited by Planned Parenthood and that truly pro-life states must close them.
