Canary to launch a daily newspaper – and they’re going to hate it

After 10 years of bringing you truth without agenda online, the Canary has now done what no left-wing media outlet has done in decades: launch a daily print newspaper. It is set to challenge every mainstream media outlet. Plus, it will bring the Canary’s no-nonsense news that disrupts power to a wider audience. And, you just know the MSM and establishment are going to hate it, too. But why the hell would we do this at a time when fewer and fewer people are actually buying newspapers? Meet the Canary (again) If you don’t know the Canary, we launched in October…

West Bank — They left us our houses and took everything else

The occupied West Bank village of al Mughayyir has again been under attack by the army and the settlers. Non-stop intimidation and harassment from settlers and soldiers Early in the morning of 20 May, the occupation army blocked the entrance, preventing any movement in and out of the village. https://www.thecanary.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/WhatsApp-Video-2026-05-22-at-23.14.56.mp4 It then attacked the boys’ school with tear gas, which led to several injuries and cases of suffocation among students. This was by no means an isolated incident. Students suffer almost daily as a result of the army’s repeated firing of gas canisters towards the school. Then the settlers set fire…

FIFA has a ‘crazy’ idea for the 2030 World Cup

Global football is moving toward a new phase of organisational debate, as the proposal to expand the 2030 World Cup to 64 teams has resurfaced in discussions within the FIFA, a development that reflects a broadening scope of thinking about the future of the world’s most-watched tournament. According to AS newspaper, the idea, which originated as a proposal from the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL), is no longer a fleeting suggestion, but has transformed into a file under discussion within some decision-making circles at FIFA, amidst growing support from parties who believe the World Cup should move toward a more inclusive…

Labour’s summer cost of living policies reduce it to the Groupon administration

Labour has announced some cost of living policies that treat voters as children. Rather than any significant economic strategy for real change, the ruling party is offering voters temporary gimmicks like no import tariffs on chocolate and biscuits for the summer. Instead, Labour could deliver cost price essentials such as water, energy and telecomms to significantly reduce costs for every person and business. Labour — The gimmicks It’s almost laughable. This is the Groupon administration. As well as cutting costs for supermarkets on trivial items, the ruling party is cutting VAT on summer days out for families from 20% to 5%.…

UK government throws another £65m at war satellite upgrade

The UK has earmarked £65m to upgrade Skynet (actual name), a war satellite system once used to fly drones over Afghanistan. The system contains software run by yet another global military firm with interests in AI war systems. That is the second one this week. A government press release once again conflated business and public safety with lucrative defence interests: Vital emergency services, military operations and British businesses will be better protected through a new system to protect UK satellites and the services they provide from space. Adding: 20% of UK economy reliant on satellite services which are essential for military…

Shapeshifting Burnham ditches trans rights to panic-grab Reform votes

Journalist Alex Wickham has revealed that Burnham now backs the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) restrictions on single-sex spaces. This u-turn appears to be nothing but a transparent bid for Reform votes, something we could have predicted coming a mile off. NEW: Another Andy Burnham u-turn appeared designed at dropping his past positions to win Reform votes He says he supports the EHRC guidance on single sex spaces and the Supreme Court ruling Previously he…

Legitimise and reintegrate: Syria’s ex-Al Qaeda president to attend G7 conference

Former Al Qaeda member and US-backed Syrian president Ahmed Al-Sharaa will be a guest at the influential G7 forum. Al-Sharaa’s presence is about Syria’s reintegration into the global capitalist economy. Syria’s use by Western powers as a “potential strategic hub for supply chains” will also be discussed given the Strait of Hormuz is blocked. The G7 is a multinational economic and political forum made up of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK and the US. The EU is a non-enumerated member.

Why Enfield has more Labour councillors than it needed to have

Labour lost control of Enfield Council at the local election but, with more coordination and cooperation, progressives could have easily taken even more seats from Labour. Enfield Independent leader to Greens: ‘If we had formed an alliance, we would have won’ A strong independent campaign hoped to play a key role in taking overall control away from Labour. But while there had previously been talks with local Greens, the Green Party chose to stand across Enfield, including in wards independents were targeting. Conservatives ended up with 31 councillors, Labour with 27, and the Greens with 5. In Upper Edmonton ward, for…

Unions welcome ‘Summer Savings’ plan but want it to go further

Trade unions have offered a guarded welcome to the government’s ‘Summer Savings’ plans. These include several measures which aim to ease summer holiday expense for families with children. Labour affiliated transport union TSSA has welcomed as an ‘important first step’ the government’s introduction of free bus travel for under-16s in England across August. This was part a series of measures that chancellor Rachel Reeves outlined, called ‘Great British Summer Savings’. It also includes a temporary reduction in VAT across Scotland, England and Wales from June to September. The reduction applies to admission tickets for family shows and attractions and children’s menu…

Reform losers resurrect racist election smear after Manchester arrests

Reform lost the Gorton and Denton by-election in February, but the Thatcherite bigots are still trying to call this massive defeat into question. How? With racist dog-whistles, and by talking about something different that some other people reportedly did somewhere else in Greater Manchester… Farage’s not-so-subtle dog-whistle Keir Starmer’s Labour Party, no stranger to dodgy tricks itself, reportedly got fake independent candidates to run in Tameside’s local elections to split the vote in its favour. And on 21 May, police arrested five people in connection to the controversial events in St Peter’s ward (which isn’t in the Gorton and Denton constituency).…

The Moog 4 are comprised of four pro-Palestine activists who were arrested and remanded to prison for six months in August 2025. Their trial is due to start at Birmingham Crown Court on 4 June 2026. Regardless of the outcome, it is an action that has shed new light on the UK government’s facilitation of the genocide in Gaza Moog Inc. You might associate the name Moog with electronic instruments and synthesisers. It turns out Robert Moog had an equally inventive cousin, Bill, who went into aviation and engineering.

The Greens for Palestine group has issued a strong demand to its party functionaries: stop throwing our candidates under the bus to pander to the Israel lobby. The message comes after the Greens’ Makerfield by-election candidate stepped down – presumably pressured – for sharing a post about Golders Green. The group of party members wants to know – who is selecting Green candidates, party members or the Israel lobby, the Zionist Labour party and hostile press? Greens for Palestine call out cowardice dressed as pragmatism It reads: Yesterday, we witnessed yet another chilling example of the same press that has spent over…

London mayor Sadiq Khan has royally annoyed the Met Police after he blocked a £50m deal to hand the cops Palantir technology. Palantir is the genocide-linked AI war firm which has won major military and NHS contracts. Palantir’s founders have openly espoused a far-right ideology. The Guardian reported: After the UK’s largest police force had agreed to use Palantir’s AI technology to automate intelligence analysis in criminal investigations, Khan intervened, citing “serious concerns” about how the deal had been struck. The mayor’s office said there had been a “clear and serious breach” of procurement rules and said police had only seriously…

“They have no soul but we’re stronger” – flotilla activist on Israel’s rape and violence

Australian anti-genocide activist Juliet Lamont has spoken of the horrors she and other volunteer flotilla crew members suffered after their abduction by Israel in international waters. The Global Sumud Flotilla ships were trying to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians under Israel’s illegal starvation blockade. Deported crew members show signs of torture and report numerous rapes and the deliberate breaking of bones. Israeli fascist minister Itamar Ben-Gvir himself posted video of the volunteers being beaten and humiliated. But after her own deportation, Lamont gave more detail on what was perpetrated on her and others. It’s truly horrific – but she and her…

Trump is trying to reinstate US sanctions on humanitarian Francesca Albanese

The Trump regime has filed an emergency appeal to try to overturn a court ruling blocking its punitive sanctions on UN rights and international law expert Francesca Albanese. The US had targeted Albanese, as well as International Criminal Court judges and lawyers, with heavy sanctions because of their pronouncements on Israel’s genocide and other crimes in Gaza. For now, the US Treasury has been forced to lift the sanctions in response to the court order. However, the Trump administration is trying to overturn the ruling. Justice Department assistant attorney general Brett Shumate said on X that her department is applying for “emergency…
