Pro-Israel pressure group UKLFI demands UCU bins pro-Israel pressure motion

Zionist bully-group UKLFI is at it again, despite the referral of its senior lawyers to their regulator for its bullying. The pro-Israel pressure group is upset that the University and College Union (UCU) conference will debate a motion on… pro-Israel pressure. You couldn’t make it up, and you don’t need to. Motion 52 will call for academic freedom against “Zionist repression” and the “dangers posed by Zionist groups”. No one sensible who has been paying attention could possibly object, which of course means UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI) is very offended indeed. So much so that it has resorted to its…

Help the Hunt Sabs stop secret summer mink murder on our rivers

Illegal mink and otter hunts are quietly decimating our river ecosystems all over the UK. And I cannot believe I just had to write that. Secretive, twisted bloodsport groups are currently exploiting the summer months to dodge public scrutiny. The Hunt Saboteurs Association (HSA) is issuing an urgent appeal to all of us to help expose and stop these disgusting underground networks. So, the Canary is calling on our readers to help the Hunt Sabs. Terrorising our waterways The summer hunting season runs from April to October, and it sees hunters taking to our waterways. Too impatient to wait until winter…

Scottish MSPs demand another chance to free Scotland from Westminster

Members of the Scottish Parliament (MSPs) have voted to demand powers to hold another Scottish independence referendum. First Minister John Swinney described independence as a “golden opportunity” that would “put Scotland’s future in Scotland’s hands”. Grasping Westminster running against Scottish interests MSPs agreed: the motion passed by 72-55, with the support of the Greens enough to see off an unholy London-centric Labour, Reform, Tory and LibDem alliance. Keir Starmer said he would not give Scots what they want. This is unsurprising. Starmer is an Establishment tool through and through, who has always treated Scottish Labour like a Westminster satellite branch. He…

Greens grassroots push back: Burnham is ‘not what we stand for’

A Green Party membership coalition has hit back at senior party figures, urging the Greens to stand aside in the Makerfield by-election. Their letter‘s message is unambiguous: the grassroots will not be managed into irrelevance. Green grassroots hitting back at Burnham The Canary can reveal a letter signed by Green Party members, circulating in response to a joint statement from high-profile party figures including former co-leader Jonathan Bartley and ex-councillor Rupert Read. It calls on Zack Polanski to rule out stepping aside for Labour’s Andy Burnham in Makerfield. Over 120 members and counting have so far signed the open letter, launched…

“Vote in hope” – Greens announce Sarah Wakefield as new Makerfield candidate

The Green Party has announced Manchester councillor Sarah Wakefield as its new candidate for the Makerfield by-election. The announcement comes after the withdrawal of Chris Kennedy from the contest. Wakefield launched her campaign by calling on voters: Don’t vote in anger, vote in hope. There’s plenty to be angry about outside of Makerfield. From the sabotage of his own party by departing MP Josh Simons and his group, to the continued red-Tory policies of Labour under Starmer, to the racism of the Reform candidate. Voters have every right to be livid. But Wakefield is right that Makerfield needs hope. So does…

British spooks helped shut down investigations of Troubles-era atrocities

The director of national security for Britain, alongside others with links to MI5 and GCHQ, were part of a “secret policymaking group” that helped create the notorious Legacy Act. The 2023 Act was a concoction by the Tory government designed to shut down investigations into Troubles-era crimes, including those carried out by the British state. The revelations are reported by the Detail and stem from work by Daniel Holder of the Committee on the Administration of Justice (CAJ). Holder spent: …eight months seeking the release of documents relating to the Senior Legacy Investigations Working Group, which met in mid-2020. The documents Holder…

ICE agents attack protesters and Democrat senator supporting hunger striker at detention facility

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have attacked protesters outside of the Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark, New Jersey. Meanwhile, detainees inside the facility have staged a hunger strike against the inhumane conditions they’re subjected to. Attorneys have reported that around 300 detainees have joined the hunger-and-labor strike at Delaney Hall. The peaceful action began on 22 May, highlighting serious concerns including the spoiled food they’re expected to eat. Selenia Destefani – CEO of Nova Law Group, representatives of the detainees – explained that: The conditions are brutal. People just sleep on the floor – overcrowded rooms, cold showers,…

The deluded Tories are foolishly attacking nationalisation

In a new video, leader of the Tories Kemi Badenoch has unveiled her latest desperate push to remain relevant. The problem is her new plan is to oppose something which enjoys almost universal support from the public: Starmer, Burnham, Farage, Polanski…These men have one thing in common. They all want nationalisation. That will mean companies run by politicians but paid for with YOUR money. There’s only one party that stands against their failed ideas and that’s the Conservatives. pic.twitter.com/vjQmRQ4V7n — Kemi Badenoch (@KemiBadenoch) May 24, 2026 Enjoy obscurity, Tories! In her tweet, Badenoch says: Starmer, Burnham, Farage, Polanski…These men have one…

Just 12 hours after murdering four medics in Lebanon, Israel targets and murders three more

Sky News‘ Alex Crawford has reported on yet another targeted attack by Israel against paramedics in Lebanon, in turn emphasising the depths of sinister depravity which Israel is more than willing to sink to. Showing camera footage which proves how the Zionist Israeli military intentionally kill Lebanese emergency workers, Crawford points out that this horrific murder came 12 hours after another Israeli strike killed four other medics. The three medics in this video were responding to a father and his daughter who were injured in an Israeli strike, only for a trademark double-tap bomb to be dropped on them – subsequently…

Fight to end guga hunt intensifies as NatureScot receives 2026 licence application

Pressure is mounting on Scotland’s nature agency after it confirmed a new licence application has been received for the guga hunt this year. The guga hunt involves the annual killing of gannet seabird chicks in the Outer Hebrides. Now the controversial practice is once again under consideration for 2026 after an application was submitted by the 10-man hunting team based in Ness on the Isle of Lewis. The hunt, which takes place on the remote island of Sula Sgeir, has been carried out for centuries and was once used for food during harsh winters. However, campaigners argue that young gannet flesh…

Cost of living crisis compared to Shell mega profits

Campaigners from Fossil Free London staged a protest outside a supermarket in Hackney on Sunday 24 May, to draw attention to the rising cost of living in contrast with fossil fuel corporations’ soaring profits. The stunt involved two trolleys. One, pushed by a campaigner dressed as an oil executive, was filled with sacks of money. The other was filled with placards shaped like common food items. Each placard displayed the item’s current cost and the amount it has risen by. For example: “Orange juice, £1.79, up 130%”. Behind them, a banner read: “Shell profits. We pay the price”. The protest comes…

In an international action, Palestine Action Global targeted multiple sites of transport company DSV. The sites were covered in symbolic blood-red paint, with graffiti highlighting DSV’s role in assisting genocide. Numerous windows were also smashed, and DSV vehicles were put out of action.

EXCLUSIVE: Flotilla activist relives capture by Zionist occupation forces

Global Sumud Flotilla activists are returning home. Many suffered IOF torture, beatings and sexual violence. The Canary spoke with British flotilla activist, Alice Chapman, who was abducted by Zionist Navy forces. I joined the flotilla in Sicily, in Augusta, and from there we were sailing for about four days before we were intercepted — I think on night five. We were still in international waters, fairly close to Greek waters. We’d had a warning that day. At that same geographic point, the previous flotilla in September had encountered boats carrying explosives. From Barcelona to Italy, there’d been a lot of surveillance drones…

Support staff at Leicester school to escalate strike campaign

Teaching assistants, residential workers, and other support staff at Ash Field Academy, a Leicester SEND school, completed their third day of strike action on Thursday 14 May. They’re demanding that Discovery Schools Academy Trust (DSAT), which runs the school, reinstates their trade union rep, Tom Barker. DSAT suspended Barker from Ash Field on 30 October 2025. This was just four working days after the closure of a ballot in which UNISON members voted for strike action over staffing cuts. DSAT linked the suspension to unspecified conduct concerns. Almost seven months on, DSAT has still produced no evidence to support any allegations…

Iran condemns new wave of US strikes as peace talks hang in balance

Iran has slammed a new wave of US strikes in the besieged nation’s south. Meanwhile Donald Trump has demanded various countries normalise relations with Israel as a condition of ending his failed war. Yet several expert voices have said that the US has already lost the war, with Trump in no position to make demands. Middle East Eye reported: Iran’s foreign ministry accused the US of violating ceasefire agreement after Washington carried out strikes south of the country. The ministry said: Undoubtedly, the Islamic Republic of Iran will not leave any act of mischief unanswered and will not hesitate in defending…

New York Mayor Mamdani successfully recovered $9m in unpaid fines from Amazon

New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, alongside the City’s Commissioners in the Department of Finance (DOF) and the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), has announced that his administration has managed to recover over $9m in previously unpaid fines. These fines came from idling violations committed by Bezos’ delivery vehicles and third-party contractors, and despite the Amazon’s $2 trillion valuation, the company has ignored them – until now. This serves as a timely reminder that authorities can hold dominant corporations accountable and make them pay up accordingly when political will exists. Amazon is worth $2 trillion. But it didn't deign to pay the…

The Duke of Norfolk is set to host a dinner for Reform donors at Arundel Castle

On 29 May, Edward Fitzalan-Howard – the Duke of Norfolk – will host Reform UK donors for lunch at Arundel Castle. Because, you know, nothing says ‘man of the people’ like hobnobbing with the aristocracy in your Duke mate’s 11th-century family fort. Of course, Fitzalan-Howard isn’t the only member of the UK’s aristos who’s been getting pally with Farage of late. Strap in, folks – we’re taking a quick tour of Britain’s ‘noble-born’ bigots, and there’s more double-barreled names than you can shake a stick at. Farage’s host, the Duke of Norfolk Fitzalan-Howard himself fits in great alongside the rest of…

Pep Guardiola leaves Manchester City after 10 special years

Pep Guardiola’s final match at the Etihad felt like a punctuation mark rather than a spectacle. He chose a day that honoured staff, academy graduates, and long‑serving players rather than chasing one last headline. The tone was controlled, personal and unmistakably Guardiola: detail‑driven, human‑centred and low on theatrics. The farewell City fielded an experimental side and the result mattered less than the people on the pitch. That selection underlined a simple point: Guardiola treated the club as a project of stewardship, not a stage for self‑promotion. The final day was about the club’s story and the people who helped write it.…
