Brexit: Theresa May to announce Britain will enshrine ALL Brussels law before UK leaves EU | Politics. The Prime Minister will use her speech to the Tory party conference tomorrow to announce the repealing of the 1972 European Communities Act, which is the current vehicle by which EU laws are implemented in the UK. As part of the process she will transfer all current Brussels laws and regulations onto parliament's statute books instead, with MPs set to spent the next few decades going through them one by one and deciding which ones they do and do not want to keep.
The announcement is the new PM's first firm commitment on Brexit since moving into No 10 in July, and gives an insight into how she plans to go about handling the monumentally complex process of severing ties with Brussels. Tellingly the bold move indicates that the Government is clearly not ruling out a so-called 'hard Brexit' as the UK would need to remain signed up to European diktats as part of any deal to stay in the single market.

The Betrayal of Syria - US, France and Britain's UN Ambassadors at the United Nations "An ambassador is a ... gentleman sent to lie abroad for the good of his country.

When Vitaly Churkin, Russia's Permanent Representative to the United Nations ("We the people of the United Nations, determined to save succeeding generations form the scourge of war ...
") rose to speak at the UN to address Syria's ongoing tragedy, on Sunday 25th September, US Ambassador to the UN, Samantha Power, François Delattre, Permanent Representative for France and British Permanent Representative, Matthew Rycroft, metaphorically threw their toys out of the pram and walked out. Anything more infantile and further away from the UN's founding aspirations would be hard to find. "It is the sixth year that the Syrian people have been suffering a grave tragedy.

Angry Brazilian Voters Looking to Upend Political Order. In Brazil's biggest city of Sao Paulo, the leading mayoral candidate is a businessman who once fired people on air during a television reality show.
In the country's crown jewel city of Rio de Janeiro, the front-runner is an evangelical pastor. And in Belo Horizonte, a former pro soccer player is leading the pack. For the first time since a bruising impeachment fight led to the ouster of President Dilma Rousseff, Brazilians will get to vote on Sunday as municipal elections take place in more than 5,500 cities. If polls are any indication, voters are in a kick-the-bums-out mood, preferring novices to established politicians amid a deep recession and anger about a colossal corruption scheme that has led to the jailing of several top politicians. "I don't want any of these traditional politicians. Outsiders like Doria seem to be on the upswing in Latin America's largest country, where major parties had long kept tight control on which candidates get put forward.
Oil Could Lie at the Root of US Growing Military Presence in Africa. In his latest article for The Intercept a US award-winning journalist, Nick Turse, turned a spotlight on a paradoxical situation: although the US government has poured hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid to the Pan Sahel African countries since 2002, the region has become less secure. "The region, relatively free of transnational terror threats in 2001, is now beset by regular attacks from Boko Haram, a once-tiny, nonviolent, Islamist sect from Nigeria that has since pledged allegiance to the Islamic State and threatens the stability of not only its homeland but also Cameroon, Chad, and Niger.
And Boko Haram is just one of 17 militant groups now menacing the region," Turse points out.

Four Republican state attorneys general are suing to stop the Obama administration from transferring oversight of the internet to an international body, arguing the transition would violate the U.S. Constitution. The lawsuit — filed Wednesday in a Texas federal court — threatens to throw up a new roadblock to one of the White House’s top tech priorities, just days before the scheduled Oct. 1 transfer of the internet’s address system is set to take place.
Story Continued Below In their lawsuit, the attorneys general for Arizona, Oklahoma, Nevada and Texas contend that the transition, lacking congressional approval, amounts to an illegal giveaway of U.S. government property.

The tape shows two deputy city marshals opening fire on a car, killing the boy and critically wounding his father in the city of Marksville.

US-Pushed 'No-Fly' Zone in Syria 'Nothing But Air Cover to Terrorists' Middle East Get short URL © AFP 2016/ Fadi al-Halabi / AMC "All the ideas of the ceasefire were predicated on the idea of disengagement. Disengagement implies that the forces of the US-backed Free Syrian Army (FSA) and others, like al-Nusra Front, or Jabhat Fatah al-Sham that it now calls itself, and of course al-Qaeda and Daesh (ISIL/ISIS) are mingling together.
But the US policy had been only to arm the FSA because they were supposedly fighting ISIS and al-Nusra," Gordon Duff said in an interview with Iranian English language news network Press TV.

Dangerous Crossroads: Russia, America Prepare for Nuclear War? | War and Conflict. (Before It's News) By Prof Michel Chossudovsky / GlobalResearch.ca Barely acknowledged by the Western media. both Russia and America are “rearming” their nuclear weapons systems. While the US is committed to a multibillion dollar modernization project, Russia is largely involved in a “cost-effective” restructuring process which consists in decommissioning parts of its land-based ICBM arsenal (Topol) and replacing it with the more advanced Yars RS-24 system, developed in 2007.
While a new arms race has “unofficially” been launched, the US modernization process pertains to the all three legs of the triad system, -i.e land based airborne and submarine launched atomic missiles. Rest assured, the B61-12 is a “mini-nuke” with an explosive capacity of up to four Hiroshima bombs. The nuclear triad modernization project is at the expense of US tax payers. War is “Good for Business” Carter expressed his concern regarding Russia’s alleged “nuclear saber-rattling”. Russia’s ICBM System About the author:
