Yesterday Guido reported on the runaway food price inflation throughout Europe, with prices shooting up by 8.9% across the EU. Now a shocking new nine-year investigation by the Pesticide Action Network (PAN) has revealed that not only are our European friends forking out more for their fruit and veg, it turns out they’re also now significantly more likely to be munching on toxified contaminated produce. According to PAN, over the last nine years, the percentage of European fruit spoiled with hazardous pesticides has risen by 53% – with the report slamming member states for “failing their legal obligations” and exposing consumers to dangerous food. Dangerous food that they’re now paying nearly 10% more for the pleasure of eating…
Reacting to the findings, Professor Nicole Van Dam of the German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv) didn’t mince her words, calling the report “shocking” and adding:
“What is the point of eating healthy if the healthy fruits and vegetables are sprayed with toxins?”
Guido’s old enough to remember when Remainers were pretending Brexit would lead to lower food standards in the UK, and appalling chlorinated American poultry would melt the insides of our poor children. Thanks to Brexit Brits can enjoy toxin-free and tariff-free uncontaminated organic food at lower prices from the rest of world. Food for thought…
While Ukraine continues its valiant battle against Putin’s fascistic might, the EU is leading from the front… By staging an interpretive dance performance in the EU parliament for MEPs…
The toe-curling performance, put on to close the “Conference for the Future of Europe”, was choreographed by French dancer Angelin Preljocaj. There’s a reason the UK is 14 points more popular than the EU among Ukrainians…
An awkward moment this morning for all the lefty hacks and opposition MPs who’ve turned their noses at the government’s illegal migrant plans, as Denmark has announced it is also now outlining plans to send adult asylum seekers to Rwanda. The Archbishop of Canterbury will need to have a lie-down…
In a statement released this morning, Danish Immigration Minister Mattias Tesfaye confirmed the country has entered discussions with the Rwandan government:
“Our dialogue with the Rwandan government includes a mechanism for the transfer of asylum seekers… [the deal will] ensure a more dignified approach than the criminal network of human traffickers that characterises migration across the Mediterranean today.”
Denmark is far from the first European entity backing Priti’s move. In 2019 then-European Commissioner Neven Mimica also announced a similar plan for the EU:
Given Biden’s been firing off diplomatic cock-ups left, right and centre for the past fortnight, it’s hardly surprising Guido missed this funny remark of the President’s from last Friday. Appearing alongside EU Council President Charles Michel, Biden quipped:
“I came to congratulate a man who just got re-elected without opposition. I dream of that some day”
While Biden may not have been Brexit’s biggest supporter, even he gets the laughable state of democracy in Brussels…
Arch Europhile Guy Verhofstadt was back on the airwaves today to once again accuse Nigel Farage of cheerleading for the Kremlin and “colluding with Putin” during his time as an MEP. This is currently the core theme of those whom are irreconcilable to Brexit. Appearing on LBC this morning, host Nick Ferrari challenged Verhofstadt to explain exactly how Farage had gone about this so-called “collusion”, to which Verhofstadt said:
“He was simply defending the positions of Russia, and denying in fact, Ukrainians and Belarus and Georgians and Moldova to choose their own paths to democracy… every extreme right-wing politician in Europe has one or other link with Russia and with Putin… [they’re] cheerleaders… They’re paid… now they are denying it.”
Never one to back down from a fight, not least from his old pal Guy, Farage immediately hit back:
“The only people who colluded with Putin are the EU idiots who still keep buying his gas and oil.”
Once again, the tangible evidence for Guy’s claims was mysteriously absent, and as of yesterday, EU states and firms are still buying oil from three Russian companies, even after the latest “transaction ban” sanctions. The EU states are literally funding Putin’s war-machine…
Responding to an emotional plea from a Ukrainian journalist, Boris used a press conference in Warsaw to back Zelenskyy’s application for EU membership. He once again refused to countenance a no-fly zone backed by NATO airforces. Boris backing EU membership… that should rile up all the right people…
