55 years ago today, on 20th April 1968, Enoch Powell gave his 'Rivers of Blood' speech predicting the immeasurable damage that mass immigration would do to the UK...
John Enoch Powell, MEB (16 June 1912 – 8 February 1998) was a British politician. He served as a Conservative Member of Parliament (1950–1974) and was Minister of Health (1960–1963) then Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) MP (1974–1987). Before entering politics, Powell was a classical scholar. During the Second World War, he served in both staff and intelligence positions, reaching the rank of brigadier. He also wrote poetry, and many books on classical and political subjects.
In the aftermath of the speech, several polls suggested that 67
to 82 per cent of the UK population agreed with Powell's opinions.[3][4][5] His supporters claimed that the large public following[6][7] that Powell attracted helped the Conservatives to win the 1970 general election,[8] and perhaps cost them the February 1974 general election,[9] when Powell turned his back on the Conservatives by endorsing a vote for Labour, which returned as a minority government.
Powell was returned to the House of Commons in October 1974 as the
Ulster Unionist Party MP for the Northern Ireland constituency of South Down. He represented the constituency until he was defeated at the 1987 general election.
Lawyer Mahmoud al-Semary wants the platform shut down in Egypt for its depiction of the ancient leader
Egyptian lawyer Mahmoud al-Semary has sued Netflix over its depiction
of the ancient Egyptian leader Cleopatra as black in the forthcoming
documentary film ‘Queen Cleopatra’. He demanded that the streaming giant
be shut down in Egypt in a complaint filed with the Public Prosecutor
on Tuesday.
Calling for the Netflix production team to be punished for participating in a “crime,”
al-Semary argued that the recently-released trailer flies in the face
of Egyptian history and promotes a divisive Afrocentrism.
“In
order to preserve the Egyptian national and cultural identity among
Egyptians all over the world there must be pride in the makings of such
work,” the attorney said, adding that most of Netflix’s offerings “do not conform to Islamic and societal values and principles, especially Egyptian ones.”
The complaint also accuses Netflix and the makers of ‘Queen Cleopatra’ of “forgery.”
Actress Adele James, who portrays the iconic Egyptian queen in the
film, vowed to block all detractors on social media after Twitter users
accused her of cultural appropriation.
Former Egyptian Antiquities Minister Zahi Hawass condemned the production last week for “falsifying facts,” pointing out that “Cleopatra was Greek, meaning that she was blonde, not black.”
Calling
on Egyptians to speak out against Netflix’s revisionism, Hawass
excoriated the trend that has emerged in some American black populations
of claiming the Egyptian civilization actually came from black Africa.
“Netflix is trying to stir up confusion to spread false information that the origin of Egyptian civilization is black,” he said, insisting such claims were categorically false.
Egyptian
temples from the era depict the civilization’s kings as racially
distinct from the African, Nubian, Libyan, and Asian enemies they are
illustrated in combat with, Hawass pointed out. He explained that Egypt
did not fall under the leadership of black Africans until the Kingdom of
Kush – the 25th dynasty, at the end of the civilization now known as
Ancient Egypt. Cleopatra was of Macedonian Greek origin, as were her
ancestors, the Ptolemaic dynasty, who had ruled Egypt for nearly three
centuries by the time of her reign. All are depicted as black in the
documentary.
A Change.org petition launched by two Egyptians calling on Netflix to cancel the miniseries for “falsifying history” attracted over 85,000 signatures in under two days before the platform mysteriously removed it.
Produced by actress Jada Pinkett Smith, the film is set to air next month as part of Netflix’s ‘African Queens’ series.

As a 100% completely sane person, never been to a Nuthouse, never seen a shrink from the mind warp scamming rackets nor diagnosed with anything and have never ever taken any pharmaceutical meds.
I am fed up with this degenerated society and these Psycho scammers labeling everyone and their dog with some made up disorders that do not exist just to justify medicating people to make Big Pharma (legal drug dealers) money, line pockets of the Head Shrinker Witch Doctors and justify the excuses for the genetically defectives whilst some actually normal people that are just scammers for free money and nothing wrong with them or want to get away crimes because they are criminals and that's what they do.
It is a waste of taxpayers money and resources. Excuses for criminals and con artists of the mind drug and fake diagnosis criminal enterprises.

Tamara Lich
What they did then
Article content
Lich, 50, from Medicine Hat, Alberta, is perhaps the most well-known of the convoy protest organizers.
Lich,
a right-wing activist who had been involved with the Yellow Vest
protest and the separatist Maverick Party, volunteered to help
fund-raise for the convoy, setting up the initial GoFundMe campaign that
quickly raised $10 million.
During the Ottawa protest
she spoke at press conferences, urged supporters to remain peaceful, and
was involved in negotiating an aborted deal with Mayor Jim Watson to
move some trucks out of residential areas downtown.
Lich
was arrested on a downtown street on Feb. 17. A video taken by her
supporters and released on social media showed Lich being handcuffed by
police and calling out “Hold the Line” as she was led away.
Article content
Lich
was in and out of jail as legal wrangling ensued during several bail
hearings and reviews. Her lawyer calculated that Lich had spent 48 days
in custody before she was released on July 26 pending her joint trial
with Chris Barber.
Where are they now?
Lich has been largely out of the public eye since she was released on bail in July.
She is currently back in Medicine Hat, said her lawyer Lawrence Greenspon in an interview.
Greenspon
said he plans to file a court application in the next few weeks to seek
a review of her bail conditions, which include a ban on using social
media.
JM
Patrick King
What they did then
Patrick King, who had been an
activist in separatist and far-right movements in Alberta before he
began protesting COVID-19 health measures, became a well-known figure
during the convoy protest.
King
led a “slow roll” of vehicles circling the Ottawa airport, posted
videos on social media urging protesters downtown to “Hold the Line” and live-streamed his own arrest on Feb. 18.
Some
convoy organizers distanced themselves from King, who in past videos
had used racist language and hinted at violence, speculating that
someone would make Prime Minister Justin Trudeau “catch a bullet one
day.”
Where are they now?
King spent five months in the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre before being released on bail on July 18.
His bail conditions included a ban on using social media or
participating in protests or unlawful assemblies related to the
COVID-19 pandemic, the convoy protest or anti-government demonstrations.
Article content
King is currently in Alberta, said his lawyer Natasha Calvinho in an interview.
She
said she anticipates a trial will be held in the fall of 2023 on the
charges laid against King during the protest. Additional charges laid
against King later of obstructing justice and perjury would be part of a separate trial, she said.

Tyson George Billings

figure in the three-week demonstration against COVID-19 restrictions
and the federal government.Photo by Facebook
What they did then
Tyson
George Billings, from High River, Alberta, was a close associate of
King and they often appeared on livestreams together during the protest.
Billings,
dubbed “Freedom George,” was known for hollering “freeedom” and “Let’s
go” as he strolled downtown streets. He was charged with several
offences, including mischief, counselling to commit mischief, counselling to disobey a court order and obstructing police, and denied bail.
Article content
Billings pleaded guilty in June to one count of counselling to commit mischief and was sentenced to six months of probation.
Where are they now?
Billings
did not respond to an email request for an interview, but based on his
social media posts he works driving a truck hauling natural gas liquid.
Billings
has recently been promoting on his Facebook page the “world unity”
convoy reunion event planned for Winnipeg in February. In videos posted
on his page, Billing says he plans to be there.

Catherine McKenney
What they did then
While
still city councillor for Somerset ward, McKenney was a frequent
presence on Centretown streets during the convoy protest, even calling
into a council meeting on Feb. 16, 2022, from a roadway jammed with
parked trucks and big rigs and demanding to know what plans the city and
the Ottawa Police Service had for clearing the occupiers.
Article content
McKenney
ran for mayor in the October 2022 municipal election, but lost to Mark
Sutcliffe. Ariel Troster succeeded McKenney as the councillor for the
Somerset ward.
Where are they now?
On
Jan. 19, McKenney announced the co-founding of a non-profit organization
called CitySHAPES with the announced goals of advocating for change,
formulating policy and working with communities across Canada on
priorities including climate change, active transportation, transit,
affordable housing and ending chronic homelessness.
GH
What they did then
As
Rideau-Vanier ward councillor, Fleury had a front-row seat to downtown
disruptions during the convoy protest, including the 25-day shutdown of
the Rideau Centre mall located in his ward.
Protesters
also showed up outside his home after Fleury’s address became publicly
known, so he and his family moved for the duration of the protests.
Where are they now?
Fleury
announced in May he would not seek re-election to council, after 12
years representing his urban ward. Since the calendar turned to 2023, he
has worked on contract as interim executive director of J.W. MacIntosh
Community Support Services, a Williamsburg, Ont.-based organization for
seniors, convalescents and adults with physical disabilities as well as
their family members and friends.

What they did then
Dichter,
a truck driver, podcast creator and producer and political and
communications strategist, was asked by Tamara Lich to help with
communications for the convoy protest.
Dichter acted as a
spokesperson, did interviews, held press conferences, worked on social
media messaging and helped people fundraising bitcoin for the truckers.
Where are they now?
Dichter
still drives a truck and does podcasts, including his talk show called
Freedom Coffee, and has written a book about the protest, Honking for
Freedom.
He will also be the keynote speaker at the 2023 Bitcoin Canada conference, said Dichter in an interview.
JM
What they did then
Previously
an Ottawa Police Services Board member nearly 12 years, including as
chair for 12, El-Chantiry was reappointed as chair after Diane Deans was
ousted by a city council vote on Feb. 16, one day after Peter Sloly
resigned as chief.
Article content
Where are they now?
The
council representative for West Carleton-March ward since 2003,
El-Chantiry announced in late July that he would not seek re-election.
Recently he said he was still attending “retirement” parties after
leaving council in mid-November, but he was also taking advantage of his
new-found free time to do things he had been too busy to do previously,
including working out at a gym five days a week. He added that he and
his wife were planning a trip.
GH
Diane Deans
What they did then
Then
serving as Gloucester-Southgate ward councillor, Deans was at the
centre of one of the most controversial developments at city hall when
she was ousted as chair of the Ottawa Police Services Board in a council
vote on Feb. 16. The move came after the police board hired former
Waterloo Region chief Matt Torigian as interim Ottawa chief to replace
Sloly. Amid swirling controversy, Torigian withdrew from the position on
Feb. 17.
Article content
Deans
announced a mayoral campaign in late 2021, but backed out. In June
2022, she announced she wouldn’t be running for re-election as
councillor in the ward she had represented since 1994.
Where are they now?
She
now works on contract with the Native Women’s Association of Canada, a
national Indigenous group that acts as the political voice for
Indigenous women, girls and gender-diverse people. “I’m just quite happy
doing something entirely different for a while,” Deans says. “I miss
politics less than I expected to miss it.”

Tom Marazzo

What they did then
Tom
Marazzo, a retired military officer who says he was fired from teaching
at a community college in Ontario for opposing COVID-19 vaccine
mandates, emerged during the convoy to speak on behalf of the
protesters.
Article content
At
press conferences, Marazzo appealed to politicians to talk with the
protesters, at one point saying he had a hotel room ready if Prime
Minister Justin Trudeau wanted to meet.
He also helped
co-ordinate truck movements during the protest and negotiated with
police liaison teams, said Marazzo on his website.
Marazzo
is a founding member of the Veterans4Freedom group, which has supported
other “freedom movement” events, including Rolling Thunder in Ottawa
last spring.
Where are they now?
Marazzo has spoken at various “freedom” related events over the last year.
He ran as a candidate for the Ontario Party in the Peterborough-Kawartha riding in the provincial election in June.
According
to his webpage, Marazzo is writing a book about his experiences with
the convoy protest and is soliciting donations for that venture.
Article content
His
website says Marazzo lives “off the grid” in eastern Ontario. Marazzo
declined an interview request, saying he does not trust this paper or
mainstream media.

Chris Barber

appears as a witness at the Public Order Emergency Commission, Tuesday,
Nov. 1, 2022 in Ottawa.Photo by Adrian Wyld /The Canadian Press
What they did then
Chris Barber, a Saskatchewan trucker, was one of the original organizers of the convoy to Ottawa.
Barber’s
videos on Tik Tok and other social media platforms helped galvanize
convoy protesters who paralyzed downtown Ottawa for more than three
weeks last winter.
Barber
was arrested on Feb. 17, 2022 as police from across Canada moved in to
clear the streets. He was charged with mischief, intimidation,
obstructing police and counselling an indictable offence and released on
bail.
Where are they now?
Barber, 47, is back home in Swift Current, Sask., running his trucking company that hauls agricultural equipment.
Article content
Business
is brisk, he said in a phone interview. “I’m just trying to play by the
rules right now and stay out of trouble,” he said. “I’m busy trucking.
I’ve never been a protester in my life, nor have I ever done anything in
my life like what happened a year ago.
“I’m not that
kind of guy. But I decided I reached my limit last year,” said Barber,
who is vaccinated himself but opposed vaccine mandates and other
pandemic public health rules.
Barber was a guest speaker
this fall on the “Fire and Ice” speaking tour by former Canadian hockey
star Theo Fleury and figure skating champion Jamie Sale, with another
appearance scheduled in February. Fleury and Sale are activists against
pandemic restrictions and promote misinformation about the safety of
COVID-19 vaccines.
Article content
Barber’s joint criminal trial with convoy leader Tamara Lich is set for three weeks in Ottawa starting Sept. 5, 2023.
There
will be two other court hearings before then, said his lawyer Diane
Magas in an interview. In February, a joint motion on behalf of Barber
and Tamara Lich will be heard asking for particulars to be disclosed of
their alleged offences, said Magas.
In March, a Charter
of Rights challenge is scheduled that relates to 4,000 pages filed by
the Crown of Barber’s cell phone data, which Magas said included
personal text messages unrelated to the convoy that should not have been
made public.
The application asks the court to either
stay the charges against Barber or, failing that, exclude the cell phone
data from the trial.
Article content
JM
Peter Sloly
What they did then
As
police chief, he became a target for criticism of the service’s
response to the convoy protest. Before the first week of the occupation,
Sloly said “there may not be a policing solution to this
demonstration.” He would also cite a lack of resources for the Ottawa
Police Service’s inaction against protesters and requested 1,800
reinforcements from other police forces to help end the occupation.
On Feb. 15, Sloly resigned as chief and was replaced on an interim basis by Steve Bell.
Where are they now?
Sloly
has a paid position as “changemaker” in residence University of
Toronto’s Massey College, where his assignment is to assist the college
principal in modernizing the institution and also leading change for
current students, but he continues to live in Ottawa with his wife and
their two children.
Article content
He
sits on the board for United Way of East Ontario and is a member of
both the Ottawa Community Foundation, where he has started the Sloly
Family Fund for local and national charities, and the Montfort Hospital
Foundation’s fundraising board for the Orléans Health Hub. He has also
reactivated Sloly Solutions Inc., a boutique consulting company he
founded six years ago, providing strategic advisory services to
organizations seeking to improve safety, justice and inclusion on
societal lines.
GH
Steve Kanellakos
What they did then
As
city manager, Kanellakos was a high-profile figure in the municipal
government’s response to the occupation. Most notably, he told council
at its Feb. 7 meetings that tow companies, including those on Ottawa’s
standing offer list, were refusing heavy tow work to remove protesters’
vehicles from downtown streets.
Article content
Where are they now?
City
manager since 2016, Kanellakos resigned on Nov. 28, just two days
before the Ottawa LRT public inquiry report was released. “I’m sure
there will be speculation about the reasons for my departure at this
time. This decision is mine and mine alone. No one asked me to leave,”
he said.
The report by Justice William Hourigan said
Kanellakos had made a “deliberate effort” to mislead council on the
decision to lower testing criteria for the LRT system prior to launch of
Stage 1 in September 2019, and on the results of that testing.
GH
James Bauder

What they did then
James Bauder, founder of the “Canada Unity” group, was another prominent promoter of the convoy protest.
Bauder
and his wife Sandra had already been in Ottawa in late fall 2021. They
and a few dozen supporters went dining and shopping without masks that
were required at the time, held protests and promoted a “memorandum of
understanding” petition that suggested elected MPs could be forced to
resign by a committee of citizens, the Senate and the Governor General.
Article content
Some
convoy organizers distanced themselves from Bauder and Canada Unity,
saying protesters were not trying to overthrow the government.
Canada Unity withdrew the memo, saying it was misunderstood.
The
Bauders parked their RV in downtown Ottawa during the convoy, where
they were arrested on Feb. 20. They were released on condition they stay
away from a one-kilometre area around Parliament Hill.
The
Bauders returned home to Alberta, and have been involved in various
protests in western Canada. The charges against Sandra Bauder were
stayed in the spring of 2022.
Where are they now?
James
Bauder has a court date in February during which he plans to ask for a
change of venue for his trial in Ottawa. He has been representing
himself in court appearances.

JM
Jim Watson
What they did then
Having
already announced he would not be seeking another term in office as
mayor, Watson headed a city council that quickly displayed its
frustration with the situation in the downtown core during the convoy
occupation. In a CFRA radio interview on its second weekend, Watson said
protesters outnumbered police and municipal authorities and admitted he
didn’t know at that time when it would end.
In October,
Watson appeared at the Public Order Emergency Commission and testified
he wholeheartedly supported the invocation of the Emergencies Act by the
federal government.
Where are they now?
After
the council term ended, Watson took a cross-Canada vacation by train.
He returned to Ottawa shortly after the LRT inquiry report also
criticized him, concluding information about the trial running of the
Confederation Line not shared by Watson and senior city staff amounted
to an “egregious” violation of the public trust. “At the end of the day,
I take full responsibility for the project’s shortcomings,” Watson
wrote on Dec. 9.
Article content
After
that, Watson said this week in a statement to Postmedia News, he hosted
Christmas dinner for his family for the first time in a decade and
spent days sorting through mementos and other items delivered to his
home from his former city hall office — none marked “top secret” or
“classified,” he joked.
He had intended in January to
explore post-politics job opportunities and to re-engage in charity and
volunteer work, but an unspecified health issue “that is not improving”
put those plans off indefinitely.
“I also hope to be
able to travel more often, but I need to resolve my medical concern
first before I can consider going abroad,” Watson wrote. “I am hopeful a
solution to this health issue can be implemented sooner than later and
that will allow me to spend more time outside of my home and community
and allow me to better reconnect with friends.”
