- One of Nigel Farage’s Reform candidates has spread racist bile – even declaring white people “the master race”.
Stuart Prior, standing in Essex in next week's local elections, can today be exposed for a slew of hateful comments just months ago. The property company director appeared to celebrate Punjabi and Sikh women being raped, suggested black people had smaller brains and branded Muslims “rats”.
His extreme comments, on a X account under his name, can be revealed in a joint investigation with anti-racism group Hope Not Hate (HnH). When we confronted the 54-year-old at his detached property in an Essex village with our dossier of evidence, he denied being a racist.
Reform UK said it was “looking into” candidate Stuart Prior’s posts.

It comes after Metropolitan Police chief Sir Mark Rowley over the weekend warned social media is “mainstreaming” antisemitism and pointed to grim research suggesting a fifth of young people don’t believe in the Holocaust.

"We have a war right now, and we're to what, six weeks? He said, 'What's taking so long!' We were in Vietnam 19 years," Trump said. He added. "You have the wrong person up here, you'll be in World War III."
Last week, Trump dismissed Iran's latest proposal to bring an end to hostilities between the two nations, stating on Friday that he remained unsatisfied while criticising Iran's "fractured" leadership structure.
Trump rejected the latest proposal almost immediately upon its delivery. Iran's state-run IRNA news agency confirmed that Iran submitted its plan to mediators in Pakistan on Thursday evening.

Taking to Truth Social, Trump said a new 'project freedom' will be launched today as part of a "humanitarian" effort.
He says the move to liberate stuck ships will "free up people, companies and countries that have done absolutely nothing wrong" as vessels currently remain trapped in the global shipping corridor.
The move comes as Iran has reportedly proposed a 14-point plan to the US which it states is primarily focused with ending the war. Iran has also urged for a 30-day extension to the ceasefire.
Trump went on to say: “If, in any way, this Humanitarian process is interfered with, that interference will, unfortunately, have to be dealt with forcefully.”

- The Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre (JTAC) has raised the UK National Threat Level from substantial, meaning an attack is likely, to severe, meaning an attack is highly likely in next six months.
It follows Wednesday's antisemitic terrorist attack in Golders Green, which saw two Jewish men stabbed in the street. The Home Office said the threat level has been rising for "some time", driven by an "increase in broader Islamist and Extreme Right Wing terrorist threat from individuals and small groups based in the UK".
The UK was last at severe in November 2021, following the Liverpool Women’s Hospital bombing and murder of Tory MP Sir David Amess, before being lowered to substantial in February 2022.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood branded Wednesday's attack "a vile act of terrorism". She urged Brits to be "vigilant" in their daily lives and contact police if they have concerns.

- King Charles charmed Donald Trump while Queen Camilla and Melania twinned in glamorous pink dresses at a glittering state dinner at the White House.
Both the King and US president raised toasts during the event, which came hours after Charles delivered his historic speech to Congress, which received more than 10 standing ovations.
Camilla wore a hot pink gown by one of her go-to designers Fiona Clare and wore a dazzling necklace of amethysts and diamonds, which belonged to both Queen Victoria and Queen Mary. While Melania opted for a baby pink strapless gown by Christian Dior Haute Couture, which she paired with dramatic off-white Dior suede gloves.
Guests at the dinner, including golfer Rory McIlroy and Amazon boss Jeff Bezos, were served a four course meal, including handcrafted spring herb ravioli, a classic dover sole meunière and a sweet beehive-shaped chocolate gateau.
In his speech, Charles left the room roaring with laughter ...

- US President Donald Trump said the King’s passion and intellect is a “blessing to the British people” in a tribute to the relationship between the US and UK.
He said of Charles: “His Majesty’s intellect, passion and devotion have been long, really a long blessing, blessing to the British people, but not only to his own country, but to the cherished bond between the United States and the United Kingdom, and I am very certain that it will continue that way long into the future.
Donald Trump said: “In the centuries since we won our independence, Americans have had no closer friends than the British.
“We share that same root. We speak the same language. We hold the same values, and together, our warriors have defended the same extraordinary civilisation under twin banners of red, white and blue.”

Suspended Labour MP Karl Turner suggests Keir Starmer should have referred himself to the privilges committee to avoid putting MPs through the debate and vote this evening.He tells the Commons: "The PM has nothing to fear - he ought to do the right thing, he should have referred himself and that would have saved us all this messing around."
He adds: "I'm convinced, I know the PM, I know he's not a liar... I think he would be exonerated."

- Description
- Morgan McSweeney has said Peter Mandelson's betrayal was "like a knife through my soul" as he defended his role in the scandal.
The PM's former chief of staff, who quit in February over the shamed peer's appointment, faced an accusation he had found a plum job for his "hero" - which he denied. Mr McSweeney said Keir Starmer would not have appointed Mandelson as ambassador to the US on his recommendation alone, appearing to question those distancing themselves.
Mr McSweeney said the so-called Prince of Darkness was picked for the role above Tory austerity Chancellor George Osborne because the PM was desperate to get a trade deal with the US. He also denied trying to find "jobs for the boys" by pushing for ex-No10 aide Matthew Doyle to get a plum ambassadorial job.
In a surprising revelation, Mr McSweeney revealed Mandelson had sent messages on the day Angela Rayner resigned as deputy PM - making suggestions about who to appoint. His testimony came ...

- Keir Starmer faces a day of peril as a former Foreign Office chief and his ex-chief-of-staff Morgan McSweeney give evidence to MPs.
And once a dangerous morning is out of the way, the Prime Minister faces a Commons showdown over whether he should be referred to a parliamentary sleaze inquiry. The Peter Mandelson scandal continues to haunt Mr Starmer, after it emerged vetting officials had recommended against giving the so-called Prince of Darkness clearance before he went to Washington.
This morning Sir Philip Barton, who was the top civil servant at the Foreign Office until the start of last year, will give evidence to the Foreign Affairs Committee. He faces questions about how much pressure was exerted by No10 to push Mandelson's appointment as ambassador to the US through. Last week his successor Sir Olly Robbins - who was sacked for not telling the PM about the vetting fiasco - said some in Government saw no need to vet Mandelson at all.

- An alleged Islamic State (ISIS) sympathiser who plotted to carry out a terror attack on a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna in 2024 has appeared in court today.
More than 195,000 fans of the singer had booked tickets to her three-day appearance at Vienna's Ernst Happel Stadium. Beran Aliyi, 21, allegedly planned to carry out the attack using a bomb hidden inside a Red Bull can.
The harrowing details of the alleged planned attack draw comparisons with the 2017 attack by a suicide bomber at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester that killed 22 people.
The plot was thwarted, but Austrian authorities still cancelled Swift's three performances in August 2024.

Less than 24 hours after authorities say Cole Tomas Allen opened fire at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner, Trump sat down with O'Donnell for an interview.
During that conversation, O'Donnell quoted from the alleged gunman's apparent manifesto: “I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes,” she read, then asking, "What's your reaction to that?"
“I was waiting for you to read that because I knew you would, because you’re horrible people. Horrible people,” Trump said. “Yeah, he did write that. I’m not a rapist. I didn’t rape anybody.”
O’Donnell then asked, “Oh, do you think he was referring to you?”

- White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt slammed late night host Jimmy Kimmel for what she called his "disgusting" comments about first lady Melania Trump.
"Just two days prior to the shooting, ABC's late night host Jimmy Kimmel disgustingly called first Lady Melania Trump, 'an expectant widow,'" Leavitt said at Monday's press briefing.
"Who in their right minds says a wife would be glowing over the potential murder of her beloved husband?" she added. There was no indication that Kimmel was referring to violence.
Leavitt was referring to a joke last Thursday on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” during which the late-night comic was pretending to deliver a comedy routine at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner.

- The distressing scenes witnessed in Washington and a city under lockdown will be a grave concern for those planning the King and Queen's upcoming visit to the United States.
Security was already of paramount importance for the King and Queen’s visit to the US and will no doubt be completely reviewed in light of the terrifying situation last night.
Buckingham Palace and royal protection teams will be seeking assurances that a watertight operation will be in place ahead of the royal visit, something that appears to not be guaranteed at any stage in a country with such shocking gun violence statistics.
Royal sources said the King and Queen has reached out privately to The President and First Lady to express their sympathies with all those affected on the night and their gratitude to the security services who prevented further injury.

Number 10 branded the a move a "desperate political stunt by the Conservative Party", while Labour's Dame Emily Thornberry said any referral to the committee risks "cutting across" the work already being done to scrutinise the appointment of Mandelson.

- Sir Keir Starmer will chair a meeting of the emergency Cobra committee on Tuesday, as he warned the impact of the Iran war could continue “for some time”.
The Prime Minister will convene the emergency committee with representatives from the Bank of England to discuss the war’s economic impact in the shadow of rising oil prices.
This Cobra meeting comes as oil prices hit a near three-week high on Monday, as hopes of progress on peace talks between the US and Iran were once again dashed.
Negotiations had been expected to take place in Pakistan before US President Donald Trump declared over the weekend that envoys from Washington would no longer be travelling to Islamabad because of a lack of progress with Iran.
Mr Trump told Fox News on Sunday: “If they want, we can talk but we’re not sending people.”
He last week indefinitely extended the ceasefire between the US and Iran, which was agreed on April 7 an...
