Truth and lies
WILL those ministers and officials running our public bodies ever understand the harm which is being caused by them taking the public for fools?
Left-wing ideology has infected the civil service so much that anyone questioning the wisdom of allowing millions to arrive from overseas is automatically considered a “far right” threat by the Prevent programme.

Meanwhile, police still fail to properly record crimes committed by foreign nationals, or have to be forced to come clean by brave opposition politicians.
The latest example of trying to warp reality concerns the ongoing chaos at Britain’s borders.
Appearing on BBC Question Time, Treasury minister Darren Jones made the totally false claim that small boat migrants are mainly “women, children and babies”.
Yet — far from correcting the record — Downing Street tried to shut up shop.
The reality?
Some 70 per cent of those illegally arriving here by dinghy are men, many of them economic migrants.
The overwhelming majority of Brits are decent, tolerant and warmly welcoming people.
Those in charge would do well to treat them as such.
Not seek to suppress debate or massage away uncomfortable truths.
A just mission
ISRAEL was entirely justified in launching its surgical strikes on rogue terror-state Iran.
The mad mullahs in Tehran are hell-bent on developing nukes and then wiping out Israel.
Iran — bank-rolling both Hamas and Hezbollah — has repeatedly failed to comply with the UN on its uranium enrichment programme. And ignored Donald Trump’s ultimatums to stop.
How else was Israel supposed to react to this intolerable situation?
Our Government should recognise another breathtaking Mossad operation has done well to take out the leader of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard.
Ordinary Iranians will be silently giving thanks, too.
Britain and America now have a duty to stand by Israel.
The destruction of Iran’s nuclear ambitions would do the world a great favour.
Gongs & arrows
The King’s Birthday Honours this year celebrate Britain’s finest achievers — from the youngest to the oldest.
Luke Littler, just 18, deservedly gets an MBE for his darting heroics.
There’s a gong, too, for 99-year-old war hero Geoff Roberts, a veteran of the Arnhem campaign.
Both are the very best of British Bully.
