Tommy Robinson's Whitehall Christmas carol service was met with a chorus of pre-condemnation from C of E bishops. But Chris Larkin came away impressed, uplifted and encouraged. Tommy is taking his new faith seriously.

The mask mafia is back. The UK faces "a tidal wave" of 'super flu' and people must "get back into the habit" of mask-wearing, says one senior NHS mandarin. We have one defence, says Dr Gary Sidley: do not comply.

After the awful massacre of Jews on Bondi beach, far too many commentators focused on the actions of the heroic Muslim who tackled one gunman. Heroic Muslims are not the "antidote" to Islamist terror, says Steven Tucker.

The EU's rollback of its petrol and diesel car ban is just the start of the bloc's retreat from Net Zero, says Ben Pile. Emissions reduction targets may remain in place for now, but don't imagine they will last long.

Student tazered and arrested in the US...

category international | arts and media | other press author Wednesday September 19, 2007 17:40author by Miriam Cotton - MediaBiteauthor email mcotton at mediabite dot org Report this post to the editors

for asking John Kerry some questions

The Youtube video link below shows a student being arrested and tazered for asking John Kerry, among other things, why he conceded the presidential election when he allegedly would have known it was rigged. The student was doing nothing other than asking questions which Kerry did not want to answer. He was not violent in any way, nevertheless he was bundled off by security men in front of a large audience not one of whom responded to his cries for help - despite having been clapped by a number of them just moments earlier. He was handcuffed and then tazered while completely defenceless. The only apparent attempt to help him on the video is the sound of a lone woman screaming at the police to stop what they were doing.

This story should be national front page news coverage all around the world. The land of the free and the home of the brave exposed for what it is. The US is in no position to lecture any other country about democracy or human rights abuses:
