UK: Woke museum slammed for ‘racist’ tour claiming Queen Charlotte was the ‘first royal person of colour’

Doubts about Queen Charlotte’s ethnicity were first publicised after a German historian questioned the accuracy of her portrait by Thomas Gainsborough, artuk.org

A London museum has been accused of “confusing the ignorant” and being “profoundly racist” after a guided audio tour incorrectly claimed King George III’s wife, Queen Charlotte, was a “person of colour”.

The guide, available to guests at the Queen’s House, part of Royal Museums Greenwich, sees guests given “a very gay tour” of the estate by drag king and historian Christian Adore.

As museum-goers walk past a figurehead of the former Queen taken from the royal yacht HMY Royal Charlotte, a section of the guide plays a recorded message saying: “Queen Charlotte, the nation’s first royal person of colour.

“Yep, you heard me. The insecure white boys writing history conveniently forget to mention that bit, because… well, structural racism.”

Royal Museums Greenwich says the tour, which “shares the spirit” of its LGBTQ+ History Month event, “Fierce Queens”, contains Adore “sharing just some of the “deliciously gay stories” contained within its [the Queen’s House’s] galleries.

The description continues: “Along the way, he’ll introduce the performers and artists that make Fierce Queens a night to treasure, allowing them to share their own experiences of representation and inclusivity in the historic space.”

Its audio guide also highlights the bisexuality of King James I, and states King Charles II, known for his multiple mistresses, had a “progressive, genuinely modern understanding of relationships in the 1660s”.

Elsewhere in the Queen’s House, a bust of Lord Nelson is berated by a “migrant goddess” figure, who tells heroic British admirals to “move over” for the “unsung heroes of the sea” and claims Nelson’s “bravery and resilience” is shared by migrants who make sea crossings.

Reports of the guided tour were slammed by former Royal Navy officer Chris Parry, who said: “This level of stupidity simply degrades and defiles our national reputation for historical scholarship… These antics serve to confuse the ignorant and are profoundly racist. Remove public funding.”

The idea that Queen Charlotte was not white was first put forward by German historian Brunold Springer in 1929 – a time of high interest in physiognomy pseudoscience in Germany – who claimed her portrait by Thomas Gainsborough was inaccurate.

Springer instead pointed to a portrait by Allan Ramsay, who emphasised her “broad nostrils and heavy lips”, while other academics have highlighted historical accounts of the Queen’s “Mulatto [mixed-race” face as evidence of her African heritage.

Later scholars pointed out one of her distant ancestors, Madragana, a Moorish mistress of Portugal’s King Afonso III, would have contributed to her appearance – though this has been put down by historians as the word “Moor” was a religious, not racial, descriptor at the time.

In popular culture, Queen Charlotte has been depicted as mixed-race – most notably in Netflix drama Bridgerton and its spin-off, Queen Charlotte.

A museum spokesperson said: “The Fierce Royals pieces were performed in the Queen’s House, delivered by a number of performance artists, during LGBTQ+ History Month and part of an evening of light-hearted entertainment, and later added to our website for the enjoyment of those who could not come on the night.

“As part of the Fierce Queens event that the tour is based on, we had a black performer playing Queen Charlotte, which is why this segment was included in the tour.

“It was not written by or performed by members of RMG staff and as a performance piece, was not ‘fact checked’.”

UK: Labour MP meets terrorist to seek release of Yasin Malik, had peddled Pakistani agenda

A month after the Indian government extended the ban on the ‘Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF)’, a sitting UK Parliamentarian named Rachel Hopkins met a leader of the Islamist terror outfit on Monday (15th April).

Hopkins is a member of the anti-India Labour Party in the United Kingdom and a Member of Parliament (MP) from the Lutton South constituency.

She had been advocating for the release of Yasin Malik, a pro-Pakistani separatist who terrorised Kashmiri Hindus and killed four Indian Air Force officers. Hopkins’ unwavering support for Malik comes despite his terror links and involvement in the genocide of Kashmiri Pandits.

In this regard, the Labour Party MP had met JKLF terrorist Zafar Khan to learn about the trial and appeal against the supposed ‘death sentence’ awarded to Yasin Malik.

It must be mentioned that in May 2022, the JKLF supremo was convicted by a National Investigation Agency (NIA) court on charges of terrorism. Yasin Malik pleaded guilty to the charges and was awarded life in prison. In this way, he tactfully avoided the death penalty.

Although the NIA has sought the death penalty for Yasin Malik for waging war against the Government of India, the hearing in the case was postponed by the Delhi court in February this year.

As such, there is no death sentence against the JKLF terrorist as alleged by Rachel Hopkins. The Labour MP was seen repeating Pakistani talking points on the Indian Union territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

“I continue to stand up for #Kashmiris & their right to self-determination,” she continued to interfere in the internal matter of India.

A year after the abrogation of Article 370 in the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir, Rachel Hopkins left no stone unturned to incite the British government against India.

“On the 5th of August, it will be one year since the Indian government revoked Article 370. The people of Jammu and Kashmir were locked down, human rights attacked and subsequent violence has resulted in many deaths,” she claimed.

“…The situation in Jammu and Kashmir is of urgent importance to many of my constituents in Luton South and other members. Will the Leader ensure that time is found early in September for a debate on human rights abuses in the region?” Hopkins had pleaded.

Labour Party and its vote bank interests

On 25th September 2019, the Labour Party in the UK passed a unanimous motion on Kashmir at their party conference in Brighton.

The motion stated that Kashmir should be given the right of self-determination as per UN resolutions and urged the Labour party to ‘stand with Kashmiris fighting against occupation’. 

British Pakistani Uzma Rasool submitted the motion. In her speech, Rasool claimed that Kashmir has seen ’72 years of human rights violation’, gang rapes and mass rapes by the Indian Army, and pellet gun injuries.

It must be mentioned that notable Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn had earlier made his anti-India stand clear on the issue. In a tweet, Corbyn had claimed that there weew human rights abuses taking place in Kashmir.

Muslim Prayer Victory. EU’s Fascist Undertones. Is Liz Truss a True Conservative? UK Smoking Ban

On today’s #NCFNewspeak, NCF Director Peter Whittle, Senior Fellow Rafe Heydel-Mankoo and SDP London mayoral candidate Amy Gallagher discuss: * Free Speech suppressed in the heart of the EU at the National Conservative (NatCon) conference. * Katherine Birbalsingh’s landmark victory as court rules Muslim children do not have the right to pray in her Michaela school. * Britain introduces the world’s strictest smoking ban. * Liz Truss wants to revive traditional conservative.

Germany: As many “kuffar” as possible should be killed in and outside a church on Ascension Day – Islamist terror cell arrested

Illustration, screen grab youtube

A few days ago, it was announced that the German State Security Service and the Düsseldorf Public Prosecutor General’s Office were able to achieve a successful investigation. The Austrian state security service in Vienna, from which the German authorities had received a tip-off, is also partly responsible for this success. According to the report, Austrian state security warned the German security authorities about a youth terrorist cell that was planning attacks on a church, reports the Austrian daily Der Standard.

The attack should ideally take place on a day like Ascension Day, when the church is well attended. However, people outside the church who were labelled as “kuffar”, i.e. unbelievers, were also to be killed. Cities such as Dortmund, Düsseldorf and Cologne were envisaged as possible targets. Four young people, two male and two female, from North Rhine-Westphalia and Baden-Württemberg had drawn up this plan for the attack. Since the Easter weekend, all four have been in custody on suspicion of terrorism.

As Der Standard further reports, one of the young people in particular is said to have been known to the German authorities for some time. She had attracted attention due to plans to travel to the Islamic State (IS). As reported by public broadcaster WDR, it was primarily storage media that was confiscated during the raids by the police over the Easter weekend. However, a machete and a dagger were also found on the second young person.

The German news agency dpa reported, citing security circles, that the young people had also been radicalised by Islamist influencers. Names and details were not given. In social media such as TikTok, however, it is mainly Salafist figures from Germany who achieve a high online circulation and thus lure young people in order to radicalise them, the Standard report emphasises.

As recently as November, two 15 and 16-year-old teenagers were arrested in Germany on suspicion of terrorism, sympathising with IS and allegedly planning an attack on a Christmas market, as reported by Focus online. They are in custody in North Rhine-Westphalia and Brandenburg. However, the radicalisation does not appear to be limited to young people in Germany, but apparently extends as far as Switzerland. Three young people were also arrested there on suspicion of terrorism and remanded in custody.

Germany: Afghan man brutally massacres store manager because of ban on entering the store

Wikimedia Commons , Jesse Krauß,PD-self

Following a nearly fatal stabbing in Gelsenkirchen, a 28-year-old man was sentenced to 13 years in prison for attempted murder on Friday. According to the verdict, the accused stabbed the manager of a clothing shop fatally on August 31 last year. The 58-year-old was critically injured. The background to this was a ban on entering the store that had been imposed on the accused. According to the judgement of the Essen jury court, he wanted to take revenge for this. The Afghan defendant had ambushed his victim at the staff entrance after work. Surveillance camera footage shows him knocking the 58-year-old man down and then stabbing him six times with a knife – in the head, neck and body. “He felt his pride and honour had been wounded”, said Judge Jörg Schmitt at the sentencing. The accused showed a “completely bizarre view of law and justice”

The defendant himself had remained silent about the allegations during the trial, but admitted the crime in general terms shortly before the verdict was announced. The judgement is not final.

Irish psychiatrist warns of ‘slippery slope’ as nation contemplates legal euthanasia

As Ireland debates legalizing euthanasia, a leading psychiatrist issued a warning that the recent case of a physically healthy 28-year-old autistic woman in the Netherlands, and a healthy 27-year-old autistic woman in Canada who have been approved for euthanasia could also become a reality in Ireland if euthanasia is legalized.

Maria Maynes was published by Gript on April 9 concerning the debate to legalize euthanasia in Ireland. Maynes interviewed Consultant psychiatrist, Professor Patricia Casey, a specialist in adult psychiatry. Maynes reported:

… recent cases unfolding worldwide involving physically healthy young people should provide evidence to Irish lawmakers that ‘the slippery slope exists,’ as she expressed particular concern about those with autism choosing assisted suicide or euthanasia.

Last month, this publication also reported on the Canadian case of an unnamed 27-year-old woman, who was also autistic, and had chosen to die by physician assisted suicide. While the father of the unnamed woman tried to intervene through court action, arguing that she did not have the ability to consent to the death under Canada’s MAiD programme, his intervention was unsuccessful.

There have also been cases in Belgium, where Asperger’s (now subsumed under the autistic spectrum) is among the most common conditions for which Belgians seek euthanasia on mental health grounds, alongside personality disorders and depression.

Maynes quoted Casey as stating:

‘There is a danger that when young, autistic people see a problem that they will look for what they see is a simple solution, or a trendy solution.’

Casey also stated:

I was struck by the photograph of 28-year-old Zoraya ter Beek in the Netherlands, who was pictured surreally embraced in the arms of her boyfriend while announcing that she was due to die on May 28th. This photograph conceals the turmoil and nihilism behind her decision and may well be used in the future to promote assisted dying as a calming answer to one’s problems.

Professor Casey compares the issue to the romanticizing of suicide that was successfully countered by national campaigns. Professor Casey fears that the same type of romanticizing of death by euthanasia will also occur. Professor Anne Doherty examined the issue of suicide rates in jurisdictions that have legalized euthanasia and assisted suicide. Professor Casey referred to her research and stated:

Prof. Doherty found that the rate of non-assisted suicide increased after assisted suicide was legalised, and I fear we will see exactly the same pattern. I also think it is very nihilistic to say to people, ‘There is no help. Why don’t you go for assisted suicide?’ I mean, it is such a dark thing to say to anybody. I think it should be absolutely taboo, but instead of that, it is now becoming glamorised.

Casey also commented on the “bracket creep” in countries that have legalized euthanasia and stated:

This is what has happened in a range of countries. The Netherlands, for instance, didn’t start with euthanasia for young people with mental illness. It legislated initially for those with terminal illness. Similarly in Canada and in Belgium. Now all of those countries are allowing assisted suicide for young people, or for people with mental illness – or a combination of both.

As for the concern that people with Autism are more susceptible to requesting euthanasia, Casey stated:

One of the reasons a young person with autism may be more susceptible is due to the fact that a lot of those with autism have unusual interests and hobbies. For example, some would have an interest in the afterlife, or the occult, or similar. We also know that some individuals who are on the autistic spectrum have very fixed beliefs about things, and so can be quite suggestible.

Once something has been suggested, the person can fixate on that. I think the interest in unusual things, something we often see in those with ASD, and some of the things that are outside the norm, along with their tendency to fixate on things, would make that person particularly vulnerable. For instance, people with rigid thinking, such as many of those with ASD, find it difficult to consider alternative solutions to problems. And this may render them more than willing to choose this particular pathway to death.

Professor Casey also commented on the social contagion that is likely to happen with euthanasia:

There will be a social contagion aspect, because as we know, teenagers and young adults are always online now. One person engaging in, or planning, an assisted suicide, will be in touch with others in their group and that contagion effect is very toxic.

We must not forget that suicide clusters existed in the recent past, because of social contagion. And it is difficult to escape that prospect in relation to assisted suicide, also.

Ireland is currently debating the legalization of euthanasia. A recent parliamentary report was released which advocated that euthanasia be legalized for a person diagnosed with a disease, illness, or medical condition that is both incurable and irreversible; advanced, progressive, and will likely cause death within six months (or within 12 months in the case of someone with a neuro-degenerative disease, illness or condition; and suffering in a manner that the person “cannot be relieved in a manner that the person finds tolerable.”

The Irish report obviously decided to push for the legalization of euthanasia in a fairly wide open manner.

For further reading, Gordon Friesen, the president of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition, issued a warning to Ireland in his article: “If euthanasia is legalized as a cure for suffering, then suffering people will be ‘cured’ with euthanasia!”

Italian Left Nominates Violent Activist for EU Parliament

Ilaria Salis,screen grab YT

Ilaria Salis, an Italian ‘anti-fascist’ who is going on trial next month for taking part in a series of violent attacks in Budapest in February last year, has been nominated as a candidate in the European elections for the Greens and Left Alliance.

Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini has previously called out the hypocrisy of the Left for attempting to circumvent the judicial system of another country, telling La Repubblica: 

The Left always tells us that we have to respect the judiciary, so let them also respect the Hungarian judiciary.

Salis has spent 13 months in a Hungarian jail for violently assaulting people after they had taken part in the ‘Day of Honour’ event, an annual neo-Nazi gathering that was banned by Hungarian authorities in 2022.

Should she win a seat in Brussels, the 39-year-old could potentially gain parliamentary immunity and thus obtain release from prison.

Her nomination has been confirmed by Greens and Left Alliance MEPs Nicola Fratoianni and Angelo Bonelli, who have entered into an agreement with her father, Roberto Salis.

In a statement, they said they wanted to “protect the rights and dignity of a European citizen,” and also criticized the Italian authorities for “inertia” in obtaining her release from jail.

Salis’ case first came to public attention in late January last year, when the Italian left-wing extremist appeared in a Budapest courtroom with a disturbing grin on her face

Concurrently, Italian media claimed she and her cellmate were being mistreated in the Hungarian jail. 

Hungarian authorities rejected the accusation, but Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani summoned the Hungarian ambassador for a conversation.

However, Tajani later warned left-wing politicians against turning the case into a political issue. In February this year, he told the Italian parliament that Italy must respect international law and the Hungarian judicial system. He added that Italy would not request that Salis be placed under house arrest as it would be a security risk to accommodate her at the Italian embassy.

Some on the European Left have been eager to exploit the situation, turning her into a martyr for the movement, while turning a blind eye to the violent crimes she is accused of.

Even if elected, it is not certain that Salis would be eligible for immunity, nor automatically freed. 

If the Hungarian authorities do not want to release her, they could submit a request to the EU Parliament to waive her immunity. 

Any final decision would rest with the (admittedly ideologically biased) European Court of Justice.

Hamas controls the streets of Europe

by Giulio Meotti

Everything is going just great.

Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh will visit Recep Tayip Erdogan in Turkey, who wants to be sultan but is also head of the second largest NATO army.

Speaking of NATO, which has its headquarters in Brussels…

Three locations changed in 48 hours and then the suspension by the police. Thus ended the meeting of European conservatives scheduled for Brussels, organized by the Edmund Burke Foundation and the Israeli philosopher Yoram Hazony. The Belgian police announced the revocation of the permits and set the seal for the immediate closure of the National Conservatism conference for “public order reasons” (it took a judge for the doors to be reopened). As if it were a crime scene.

It was not a meeting of fascists. Among the speakers, the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, the former head of the German secret service Hans-Georg Maasen, the Israeli Minister for the Diaspora Amichai Chikli, the former English Interior Minister Suella Braverman, the former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Moroawiecki , the French conservative leader Eric Zemmour, the Brexit leader Nigel Farage (whose bank account was also closed in England for political dissent, as if we were in the USSR), scholars and intellectuals such as Frank Furedi and Melanie Phillips.

The socialist mayor of Brussels, Philippe Close, had refused to make a space available and the event was moved to a hotel in the neighborhood near the EU institutions. Then a further change at Claridge’s in the center of Brussels after the interference of the mayor of Etterbeck who put pressure on the Sofitel hotel to cancel the conference.

In practice, the entire European capital was committed to ensuring that nothing different was said about Islam, immigration and the fate of Western civilization. Writes Ayaan Hirsi Ali: “Radical Islamists manipulate incredibly naive Western liberals”.

The video in which Zemmour is blocked from entering the conference comes from Eurabia. But this is what happens when you don’t fight against Islamization: its critics are banned, as if we were in China, Iran, Russia or Venezuela.

When I defined Belgium as “Europe’s first Muslim state” a year ago, it was not hyperbole.

Last month Belgian police arrested four young jihadists who had planned a terrorist attack against a cultural center in Brussels. The terrorism alert level in Brussels is three, with level four representing the maximum and was reached with the massacres of 2016.

The mayor of Brussels’ Saint Josse, Emir Kir, a Turkish socialist close to the Gray Wolves who denies the Armenian genocide, decided to censor the police.

13 out of 29 Saint Josse city councilors have Muslim names.

What a strange Europe, isn’t it?

“In the past, Belgium welcomed Victor Hugo in exile,” Zemmour wrote. “Now this country lives between the caliphate and the dictatorship”.

Meanwhile in Brussels , Hamas is fundraising and public relations under the nose (and complacency) of the EU, and the city’s Jews lived in fear.

While Brussels was doing everything it could to prevent a conservative conference from taking place, in London Niyak Ghorbani, an Iranian dissident, who had been alongside the Jewish community for months with his sign stating “Hamas is terrorist”, was arrested again.

Zemmour was also designated as “persona non grata” by the mayor of London, Sadiq Khan. He has not found a place where he can speak in the English capital, where Islamic fundamentalists are free to occupy buildings and streets.

The French writer Renaud Camus, 76 years old who coined the expression “Great Replacement”, was supposed to walk the streets of the Brussels municipality of Saint-Josse in a demonstration against migration policy. But the march never took place. The mayor prevented it. From the data, which dates back even to a few years ago, Saint-Josse is already 49 percent Islamic. But the problem is Camus.

Personalities critical of Islamism and who live protected by the police have also been banned in London. Like Geert Wilders, the Dutch politician protected by a Dutch army unit generally responsible for ensuring the security of an embassy in a hostile land. When he landed at Heathrow Airport, Wilders was stopped and put back on the next flight to The Hague.

It was 2009, when this green, fanatical, ignoble and violent tide could still be stopped. In 2024 it’s a tsunami. And how do you stop a tsunami?

It’s the prophecy of Bernard Lewis, who said that “at the end of the century Europe will be Islamic”.

And Lewis had seen nothing of what we have before our eyes now, every day, for years and for the next years to come.

MEXICO: Leftist Male Politicians Are Self-Identifying As “Women” In Upcoming Municipal Election To Secure Candidacy

[Left to Right] Saulo Morales Guerrero, Daniel Alfonso Zavala de la Rosa, Roberto Carlos Medina Hernández, and José Reyes Martínez Rojas.

Two left-wing parties in Mexico are under fire after nominating several men to run as female candidates in the upcoming municipal elections in the state of San Luis de Potosí. The move appears to be a way to exploit a loophole in the Gender Parity Law in Mexico’s constitution, which requires 50% of all elected positions to be held by women in an effort to combat the country’s rampant sexual violence.

The Green Ecologist Party of Mexico (PVEM) and the Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD) have nominated a number of males to run in the municipal elections to be held in San Luis de Potosí, one of the country’s 31 states. But due to the Gender Parity Law, the men are registering as “women” in order to successfully run.

It is unclear at this time if the parties simply didn’t have enough female candidates to run, as all political parties must nominate at least five women in order to participate in the elections. The move might also be a way of guaranteeing a win, as female candidates can often “leapfrog” over their male opponents if parity has not been met.

For the Green Ecologist Party, José Reyes Martínez Rojas has been selected to run as a “woman” in Venado, Roberto Carlos Medina Hernández will run as a “woman” in Vanegas, and Daniel Alfonso Zavala de la Rosa will run as a “woman” in Villa de Arista.

[L] José Reyes Martínez Rojas. [C] Roberto Carlos Medina Hernández. [R] Daniel Alfonso Zavala de la Rosa.

The Party of the Democratic Revolution has nominated Saulo Morales Guerrero as their female candidate in Ahualulco.

Morales Guerrero had initially registered as a male candidate, but later changed his gender to “female” in order to comply with gender parity guidelines. Had he not done this, he likely would not have been allowed to run as there were already too many male candidates.

Saulo Morales Guerrero

A representative from Morales Guerrero’s party told Pulso SLP that they were focusing on equity during this election, stating: “This year’s process opens the door to a historic opportunity to build equality and inclusion where all social groups such as women, indigenous peoples, the LGBTQ+ community and people with disabilities can have guaranteed participation and have their voices heard in every space.”

Despite registering as “women,” the male candidates have not changed their legal names or sexes. Many of them have families, and have posted photos showing their wives and children on social media. Some have even forgotten to refer to themselves as “women.”

But despite the obvious ploy, the Consejo Estatal Electoral y de Participación Ciudadana (CEEPAC), the institution in charge of organizing the electoral processes in San Luis Potosí, has declined to speak out against the candidates.

According to El Tiempo del Altiplano, CEEPAC councillor Juan Manuel Ramírez García stated that “it must be recognized that the nominations are initially in good faith,” and that it is necessary to wait until April 19 for the decisions to accept or reject the candidates to be finalized.

While citizens are allowed to present challenges to the candidates, sources in the community tell Reduxx that most women are too afraid to do so out of fear of threats from the men. There has only been one complaint filed against one of the candidates – José Reyes Martínez Rojas – by someone who believes that he is exploiting the Gender Parity Law.

The Gender Parity Law came into force on June 6, 2019, and was a historic moment in Mexico’s history as it was an unprecedented achievement in guaranteeing women’s political rights. Mexico had long been struggling with one of the highest femicide rates in the world, with police and politicians often refusing to take concrete action to protect women. The Gender Parity Law represented an effort to give Mexican women a political voice to advocate for themselves legally.

But recent efforts to advance women’s rights have now come into conflict with gender ideology, as trans activists have pushed to expand self-identification laws in the country.

While in 2018, over one dozen men were disqualified from political candidacy after falsely claiming to be “transgender,” no such pushback is occurring today. Some have attributed this to the increasingly vocal claims of violent trans activists that people can self-identify as whatever gender they’d like without question.

In a statement to Reduxx, Claudia Espinosa Almaguer, a professor and feminist lawyer, condemned the “deception” occurring in the election.

“it should be taken into account that women make up 52% of the population, out of 127.8 million we are 66.2 million. In other words, we are not a minority; on the contrary, our participation is a key element in measuring the quality of democracy in the country,” she said.

But Espinosa Almaguer, who is also an advisor to the State Human Rights Commission of San Luis Potosí, says certain factions of liberal feminists have been too complicit in allowing the lines between sex and gender to be blurred.

“Even from women who proclaim themselves to be feminists, there seems to be a complacency. This is despite the fact that they know about the deceptions of gender [ideology], and also about the systemic threats that make it unfeasible for Mexican women to have guaranteed participation in any sphere with the level of violence that we suffer in general for the mere fact of being women.”
