The altercation between several people from Afghanistan resulted in the death of one of them, a 26-year-old. The knifeman, who was born in 1997, was arrested by the police near the scene of the crime and taken into police custody at the central police station on charges of intentional homicide. (…)

The couple had been banned from entering Cowley Hill Primary School in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, after questioning the head teacher appointment process GOOGLE MAPS
The parents of a nine-year-old girl were detained after complaining about their child’s primary school over WhatsApp.
Maxie Allen and Rosalind Levin were arrested in front of their daughter and put in a cell for eight hours.
They were reportedly questioned on suspicion of harassment, malicious communications and causing a nuisance on school property.
After police carried out a five-week investigation, they concluded no further action would be taken.
The couple’s arrest on January 29 reportedly followed a complaint from the school about Allen and his partner sending multiple emails and making “disparaging” remarks in a parents’ WhatsApp group.
Previously, the couple had been banned from entering Cowley Hill Primary School in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, after questioning the head teacher appointment process and “casting aspersions” on the chairman of governors in the WhatsApp group, according to The Times.
Allen, a producer for Times Radio, told the newspaper that he and his partner were prevented from attending the parents’ evening for their nine-year-old daughter Sascha.
He said the school’s approach was intended to “silence awkward parents”, and that their treatment showed a “massive overreach” by the police.
The producer called the ordeal “nightmarish”, adding: “We’d never used abusive or threatening language, even in private, and always followed due process.”
“Yet we have never even been told what these communications were that were supposedly criminal, which is completely Kafkaesque.”
The situation began in May 2024 when the father wrote to the school governors asking why – since the previous head teacher had announced his retirement six months prior – a recruitment process had not begun.
The next month, the chair of the school governors, Jackie Spriggs, allegedly sent parents a message saying that the school would take action against anyone who caused “disharmony”.
Allen and his partner expressed their outrage over a private WhatsApp group, with Levine making a comment about acting head teacher Louise Thomas suggesting the school overreacted to social media posts.
Soon after, the school reportedly banned the couple from visiting the premises, informing them that they could only communicate via email.
Over the following weeks, they claimed to have emailed regularly.
The couple said they repeatedly tried to convince the school to lift the ban, citing their daughter’s struggle with epilepsy, and filed a formal complaint expressing concerns about the head teacher recruitment process.
The school then allegedly sought advice from Hertfordshire police, believing the number of emails had become excessive.
In December, a police officer issued the parents with a warning and apparently told them to take their daughter out of school – which they did the following month.
A week later, officers turned up to arrest the pair.
Levine said when police appeared at the house she thought Sascha was dead, as she “could not think of any other reason why six police officers would be at my door”.
She added: “My heart was thumping, thinking something terrible had happened. So when I was placed under arrest, in a weird way I was briefly relieved. And then I started to think, ‘what on earth? What the hell is going on?”
They reportedly spent the next 11 hours at Stevenage police station where they were interviewed under caution after being released at midnight.
A spokesman for Cowley Hill Primary school said: “We sought advice from the police following a high volume of direct correspondence and public social media posts from two parents, as this was becoming upsetting for staff, parents and governors.
“We’re always happy for parents to raise concerns, but we do ask that they do this in a suitable way, and in line with the school’s published complaints procedure.”

As the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan draws to a close, the Muslims broke their traditional fast on the 27th of March – with Social Democratic Party Mayor Michael Ludwig in the festival hall of the town hall.
A prayer room was even set up for the Muslims away from the banqueting hall to allow the faithful to pray in between. Pictures on social media show the room shimmering in a soft light green colour, while a video shows oriental music and the voice of a prayer leader. Amongst them is SPÖ Mayor Ludwig, who told the Kronen Zeitung newspaper:
'It should be a signal that tonight sends out that Islam is part of our society, also part of our city.
A sentence that was reminiscent of the fatal statement made by Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen in 2022:
Will have to ask all women to wear headscarves - out of solidarity.
While SPÖ Mayor Ludwig – presumably also with a view to the Vienna elections – is courting the Islamic community in Vienna and eyeing their votes, FPÖ leader Herbert Kickl and FPÖ provincial party chairman Dominik Nepp visited a traditional customs event on Vienna’s Rathausplatz on Thursday – the Styrian Days in Vienna. In addition, yesterday, Friday, FPÖ leader Herbert Kickl said during his speech at the Freedom Party’s election kick-off for the Vienna elections, which was suddenly accompanied by the ringing of bells on Pius-Parsch-Platz in the Floridsdorf district, that he was glad to still hear these sounds in Vienna and not prayer leaders from mosques.
Britain’s got a problem, and it’s not the one the chattering classes are bleating about. It’s not climate change, pronouns, or gaslighting Netflix series probing what’s gone wrong with boys. No, the real crisis is a hole in the nation’s heart—a gaping wound where loyalty, pride, and (dare one say it) the willingness to defend this Sceptred Isle used to reside. The white working-class lads who once formed the backbone of Britain have had enough. Derided, scorned, and blamed for every ill under the sun, they’re no longer signing up to die for a country that’s made it clear it doesn’t want them. And who can blame them?
Former Defence Secretary Lord Hammond—hardly a rabble-rouser—sounded the alarm in The Telegraph earlier this month. “Young men are unprepared to fight for Britain,” he warned. He’s got a point. Back in 2015, a Gallup poll found just 27% of Brits would willingly take up arms for their country—one of the lowest figures in Europe. That was a decade ago, mind you. Today, you’d be lucky to find a lad from Bolton or Barnsley willing to take a bow for King and Country, let alone a bullet.
And why on earth should they? Thanks to decades of Critical Race Theory, feminist claptrap and the self-loathing taught in our schools, the white, working-class male has morphed into nothing short of a national punchbag. To Westminster liberals, they’re ‘toxic’ and ‘privileged’, forced to subsist on crumbling estates while resources are handed over to those with more exotic backgrounds and skin colours. To employers, they provide no commercial value in terms of woke credibility and are therefore passed over for promotion—or excluded entirely. To the authorities, they’re now the only demographic liable to feel the full force of the law.
If you think the multicultural brigade or the feminists are ready to step into the breach any time soon, think again. The military’s £8 million diversity drive (aimed at increasing the representation of ethnic minorities, women and those with disabilities, while also relaxing security vetting for overseas recruits) was an unmitigated disaster—resulting in a paltry tenfemale recruits starting basic training. Perhaps the sneering of top brass at white male recruits as ‘useless’ was unwise, particularly since Newsweek revealed there were “twice as many” British Muslims fighting for ISIS than serving in the UK Armed Forces.
Comrade Starmer may be itching to send the troops into Ukraine to prove his manliness—‘boots on the ground’ he says; ‘security guarantees.’ Good luck with that, Sir Keir, with the British Army shrunk to a measly 72,500 under Rishi Sunak’s watch; the smallest it’s been since the Napoleonic wars. Things are so bleak in fact, the PM may need to spend a little less time fussing over his wife’s wardrobe, and get his army fatigues dirty himself.
The future isn’t looking any better unfortunately, with the attitudes of Gen Z particularly disturbing. Twenty years ago, 80% of young Brits were proud of their country. Two decades on, and that number has halved. For those aged 18-27, 50% believe Britain is racist and stuck in the past, with just 11% suggesting they would fight for the nation in a war. The double-edged sword of a country revolted by its successful past and a white, working-class majority now persona non grata, is a recipe for a military which couldn’t defend a front lawn let alone a front line.
The shocking state of the UK Armed Forces is more than just a recruitment crisis—it’s a betrayal. For generations, the sons of England marched off to the battlefields of Flanders, Normandy and the Falklands, no questions asked. They didn’t need a focus group to tell them what patriotism meant. But patriotism is a two-way street, and those in command have not upheld their end of the bargain. The jobs have gone overseas, the factories closed, and the promise of a better life turned into food banks and zero-hours contracts. To add insult to injury, our boys were then told that they were the problem—‘too white,’ ‘too male,’ ‘too toxic’ to fit in with the soy latte-sipping London liberals.
So here we find ourselves, with a military on its knees and a government too busy navel-gazing to notice. Starmer’s sabre rattling in the direction of Ukraine might impress the Guardian editorial board, but its hollow bluster when the numbers simply aren’t there to back it up. I recall watching Christopher Nolan’s epic WWII film Dunkirk some years ago, and then reading the reviews suggesting it was ‘too white.’ No shit, Sherlock! But two can play that game.
Laying down your life is the ultimate sacrifice a man can make. Most will do so without a moment’s hesitation for their children and family. But for a country to merit such devotion, requires that such a country is worthy of fighting for. If Britain is no longer inspiring these emotions in its young men, we must ask ourselves why.
Feminists and liberal men rail against ‘toxic masculinity’ more than any other ‘societal ill,’ yet they are always the first to cower behind it when it’s the only line of defence. One wonders what they will do when the next call to arms is met with silence?
Reduxx has learned that a trans-identified male currently incarcerated at a women’s prison in Washington state has been charged with intimidating a public servant and malicious mischief in the first degree after he threatened and assaulted a female correctional officer. Nonnie Marcella Lotusflower, born Nathan Goninan, has a history of violence against women and is currently serving a 10-year sentence at the Washington Correctional Center for Women (WCCW) for the murder of a teen girl.
Court records obtained by Reduxx describe how Lotusflower began threatening a correctional officer lieutenant on the morning of September 24, 2024. The officer, along with a prison psychologist, had been scheduled to visit Lotusflower in order to conduct an administrative hearing to address his “unauthorized actions” in the facility. The lieutenant was acting as an Administrative Hearings officer when Lotusflower began shouting, “Get out, I will fucking hurt you, get the fuck out of my face, I swear I will hurt you.”
The convicted killer then made a sudden forward motion as if attempting to lunge towards the lieutenant. Both the officer and psychologist were able to leave the small room and called for assistance. As the two were outside the room, Lotusflower was able to partially break free from his restraints and began shouting “Boo!” at them in an attempt to frighten them.
Staff responded to the call for backup and the use of force became necessary, and Lotusflower was sedated.
Stills from CCTV footage of the staff’s encounter with Lotusflower.
On October 17, the lieutenant attempted to conduct the hearing again. She was seated outside of a segregation where Lotusflower was being held. At his request, the cuff port, an opening in the door which allows for meals to be passed through, was opened. Lotusflower crouched down to speak to the lieutenant through the port, then stood up and flung an “unknown liquid substance” at her face, which then entered her mouth, nose, and eyes. She was then transported to the hospital for a medical evaluation.
“You don’t want to follow the rules, this is what you get!” Lotusflower shouted at the woman. “You cunt, I tripped and fell.”
In prison slang, “gassing” refers to an inmate intentionally throwing bodily substances at guards in order to retaliate and intimidate. The court report did not specify which liquid Lotusflower hurled at the officer, however, the most common bodily excretions thrown include feces, urine, semen, or saliva. As the practice carries a high risk of spreading infectious diseases, it is considered a felony in most U.S. states.
Charges against Lotusflower are also linked to damage done to the detention facility. On December 17, while in a segregation unit, he began screaming, then picked up a speaker used for hearings and threw it against the window, causing the glass to crack. The window is connected to the adjacent room, the law library, designated for the use of inmates taking classes. The library was rendered unusable until repairs could be made.

As staff arrived on the scene, Lotusflower began threatening the guards, stating, “I don’t care anymore. I am stomping down any cop and slitting their throats. I am murdering you all. I don’t care. You all are taking my life away from me. I just got another ten years.”
On January 13, another violent outburst was recorded. Lotusflower launched into a fit over an issue regarding his phone usage, then attempted to break the prison’s phone. His vandalism escalated and ultimately he broke another six windows. The total cost of the damages to state property are estimated at over $30,000.
In June of that year, a whistleblower employed at (WCCW) told National Review that Lotusflower had successfully undergone breast augmentation surgery on the taxpayer dime while incarcerated. The correctional officer, who was not named due to concerns over professional repercussions, noted that Lotusflower had recently been escorted on a medical leave from the prison to get breast implants.
EXCLUSIVE: A violent transgender inmate at Washington's only women's prison was allegedly gifted a Victoria's Secret bra by the facility after receiving taxpayer-funded breast implants.
A source within WCCW then came forward to allege that the state’s only women’s prison had “gifted” Lotusflower a Victoria’s Secret bra.
Lotusflower was convicted on second-degree manslaughter charges for the brutal murder of 17 year-old Jessica Franklin. He targeted Franklin just hours after being released from prison in 2007, and upon his release, strangled her to death. Her body was found beneath an underpass in Bellingham, Washington, and a forensic examination revealed signs she had been sexually assaulted.
As previously reported by Reduxx, Lotusflower filed a lawsuit against WCCW last December claiming corrections officials are responsible for violating his eighth amendment rights against cruel and unusual punishment. In his complaint, Lotusflower argues that being placed in solitary confinement for an extended period of time has put him at risk of self-harm and mental health episodes. He alleges a conspiracy in which multiple WCCW staff members intentionally “targeted” him for mistreatment in order to make him “blow up.”
Part of the prison’s conspiracy against him, Lotusflower argues, involves a Prison Rape Elimination Act case in which he was cited for sexually assaulting a female inmate in 2021. He claims that WCCW staff falsified infraction reports and photo evidence of the female inmate’s injuries, leading to him being designated a high risk, maximum security inmate. Despite his claims of a conspiracy, the allegation was marked as “substantiated” after an investigation took place.
In addition to the rape investigation, Reduxx also found that Lotusflower had been cited for physically assaulting a female inmate in April of 2023. According to a WDOC infraction report, CCTV footage showed Lotusflower punching a female inmate in the face while both had been out in the recreation yard.
Following the assault, Lotusflower then contacted both the victim and multiple other inmates in an apparent effort to compel them to provide false testimonies denying or downplaying the assault. He was ultimately found guilty of the violations, and was sentenced to a loss of privileges for 120 days.
In response to his maximum security designation, Lotusflower reportedly threatened a member of WCCW staff, screaming: “I will beat your ass. I will block your fucking face out. You’re an ugly fucking slut!” Lotusflower then also threatened another individual involved in making the decision, loudly declaring that he would “end her fucking life” and murder her family.
Deborah Wofford, the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Women’s Division, has declared Lotusflower an “unmitigated threat to the safety of other incarcerated individuals,” and noted that he had repeatedly made serious threats of bodily harm towards staff. Wofford stated that “such overtly threatening and aggressive behavior is not typical with individuals incarcerated at WCCW.”
In July of 2023, Lotusflower was referred to transfer back to a men’s prison as a result of his repeat infractions. It is unclear when Lotusflower was again returned to WCCW.
WCCW is a Washington State Department of Corrections (DOC) women’s prison that is ranked as a minimum, medium, and close security prison. There are several violent men who claim to be transgender currently housed at the facility.
🚨EXCLUSIVE🚨
A female inmate at the Washington Correctional Center for Women has come forward to reveal that she was sexually assaulted by her transgender cellmate, Christopher Williams.
Last year, Reduxx spoke with an anonymous source inside WCCW who said that another trans-identified male inmate at WCCW had also been accused of sexual assault. The inmate reported that in April of 2022, transgender inmate Christopher Williams asked to be moved into her cell.
She became increasingly uncomfortable with Williams’ behavior towards her, which had a near-constant sexual undertone. At one point, Williams appeared to become frustrated with her lack of interest in him, and started issuing disturbing threats of sexual violence. One night, after the inmate had taken sleeping medication, she woke up to find Williams touching her body.
Despite voicing her concerns throughout the ordeal, the woman who was sexually abused by Williams said she was ignored.
A primary school in the Leopoldstadt district of Vienna is celebrating the Islamic Ramadan next Tuesday and all pupils are expected to take part. Parents are particularly upset that the same school does not celebrate Christmas. School attendance is compulsory on that day, as the school management informed parents in a letter. Anyone who does not want to send their children to school should discuss this in advance with the ‘class teacher’. The father of one of the pupils noted that although the end of Ramadan, the so-called breaking of the fast, is now being celebrated, there was no Christmas celebration at school. The child is also said to have mentioned several times that his classmates often hardly speak any German. Some are even said to only speak Arabic, which is why an Arabic-speaking teacher has to take part in the lessons. The Vienna Education Directorate told heute.at that the Ramadan celebration was a voluntary event that would last a maximum of ten to 15 minutes. Pupils who do not want to take part in the Muslim festival do not have to.
A Kosovar migrant murdered his own wife in the commune of Gray in northeastern France in August 2004 by stabbing her to death. The prosecution’s lawyer described the killing by saying that the migrant had “killed her like you would kill a sheep.” Now, the Kosovar is back on French soil and has allegedly been threatening to repeat the same crime with his new wife.
The migrant, who was 44 at the time of the murder, was sentenced to 20 years in prison in January 2007. In the end, he only served 15. After his release, he was deported back to Kosovo and banned from returning to France.
The story doesn’t end there, however. The same man, whose name has not been reported in the media, was introduced to another woman by a mutual acquaintance through an exchange of letters in 2018. The woman, who was divorced with four children, is from the same village in Kosovo, although she was by then living in the town of Montbéliard, also in northeastern France. She ended up returning to Kosovo temporarily in order to marry the convicted murderer only a month after they were introduced, despite knowing of his criminal record.
Although the newlyweds were originally forced to have a solely long-distance relationship, the husband managed to illegally reenter France at the beginning of 2020 in order to join his wife.
According to the newspaper L’Est Républicain, he soon began drinking heavily and became both verbally and physically violent, threatening to do the same as he had done with his previous wife, among other threats.
He eventually threatened to kill one of his spouse’s children, and his wife notified the authorities. A court sentenced him to another year in prison in 2022 for this offense, after which he was again deported back to Kosovo.
The determined migrant once again managed to reenter France illegally in 2023 and made amends with his wife, moving back in with her. It wasn’t long before he returned to his old ways, however, and his wife again reported him to the police in August 2023. The husband had disappeared by the time officers responded, and managed to escape back to Kosovo.
The husband once again managed to enter France illegally in the summer of 2024 and moved back into his wife’s home. She said nothing to the authorities, however, wanting to give her spouse a chance at reconciliation. The situation nevertheless did not improve.
According to Le Parisien, the husband has been accused of telling his wife in great detail how he was going to torture her before killing her, saying that he was going to make sure that she died slowly. On Friday of last week, he allegedly threatened to burn both her and one of her sons to death; his wife, now 50, called the police yet again. When officers arrived at the scene, they found the husband so drunk as to be nearly unconscious after having polished off two whole bottles of whiskey.
The migrant, who is now 65, is still in police custody. He faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted due to his criminal history. He has denied all of the accusations and claims that his family is lying as part of a plot against him.
If found guilty, this Kosovar migrant will again be deported – but given the ease with which he has returned three times before, it seems entirely possible that this tragic story has still not ended.
The case is the latest illustration of France’s broken immigration and deportation system, which allows repeat offenders to either remain on its territory or simply keep coming back.

Following an unfair trial, the author Boualem Sansal was sentenced to five years’ imprisonment—a decision that further exacerbates diplomatic tensions between France and Algeria. He was arrested in November 2024 by the Algerian authorities, upon arrival from France.
The Franco-Algerian writer, known for denouncing the grip of Islamism on French society, was accused of “undermining the integrity of Algerian territory” for having supported, in the right-wing publication Frontières, the position that Moroccan territory had been amputated for the benefit of Algeria under French colonization. He was also accused of “colluding with foreign parties” for having repeatedly exchanged views with French ambassadors.
Aged 75, he was detained for more than four months before being subjected to a farcical trial. He was refused the opportunity to choose his own lawyer on the grounds that his own, François Zimeray, was Jewish. The hearing lasted no more than 20 minutes.
The prosecutor had requested a sentence of 10 years; he ended up being sentenced to ‘only’ five years—which is still a very severe sentence considering the writer’s age and his very poor health. Sansal is suffering from an advanced stage of cancer. His family and his support committee are concerned that this situation could be seen as a slow death sentence, given the conditions of his detention.
This is also the view of Marine Le Pen, whose voice rose on X in protest at the verdict:
The scandalous conviction of Boualem Sansal is in reality, given his age and state of health, a life sentence. It will remain an indelible stain on the Algerian regime. In reality, Boualem Sansal is a hostage of the Algerian regime, which is using him to make France yield.
Sansal’s lawyer has appealed to President Tebboune and called on his sense of humanity—if not justice—to free Sansal.
During a press conference at the end of the Ukraine summit, President Macron called on the “highest Algerian authorities” to make “humane and humanitarian” decisions regarding the Franco-Algerian writer and to “give him back his freedom.” “I know I can count on both the common sense and the humanity of the Algerian authorities to make such a decision,” added the President of the Republic. It is not certain that the terms ‘common sense’ and ‘humanity’ are the ones that best describe the current Algerian government.
In France, the verdict sparked indignation on the Right and the Left. Former Prime Minister Gabriel Attal affirmed that through Sansal, it was France itself and its values that were targeted. The far-left MP and head of the parliamentary group of La France Insoumise (LFI) Mathilde Panot also came to Sansal’s defense, while pointing out that he should not be “exploited by the far right.” The Left has indeed always shown a certain reluctance to defend Boualem Sansal, whose uncompromising criticism of the excesses of Islam it condemns. In January, a resolution in support of the writer was passed in the European Parliament, without the votes of nine LFI MEPs.
