THE MONTHLY MOSQUITO

Colorado Judge Resigns

A judge in Colorado who repeatedly said the n-word when asking a black co-worker why white people can’t use the term is stepping down from the bench.

The Supreme Court of Colorado said on Friday that they’d accepted the resignation of the 18th Judicial District’s Natalie T Chase, which will be effective in 45 days after her notice.

Natalie T Chase further faced several other complaints about her behaviour in the courtroom and with co-workers, with many claims of racist and improper behaviour made against her.

Her Friday resignation comes after the state Supreme Court criticised her following a report that determined she weakened confidence in the impartiality of the judiciary by expressing her beliefs about criminal justice, police brutality, race and racial prejudice, specifically while wearing her robe in court, staff work areas and from the bench.

According to the court, Natalie T Chase admitted in early 2020, she was driving back from a programme with a Family Court Facilitator when she asked the co-worker, who is black, why black people can use the n-word, but not white people.

Natalie T Chase, who is white, also asked whether the word is different when it ends in an ‘er’ or an ‘a’, and used the full word several times.

The court’s opinion wrote that the Family Court Facilitator was uncomfortable because she couldn’t leave the vehicle or leave the conversation.

The Family Court Facilitator felt angry and troubled by the discussion, and she explained that Judge Chase’s use of the full n-word was like a stab through her heart each time.

The opinion read that the Family Court Facilitator didn’t feel free to express her discomfort or emotions due to fear of reprisal by Judge Chase, and it noted that Judge Chase acknowledged that she infringed Canon Rule 1.2, which requires judges to serve in a way that promotes public confidence on the bench.

In another incident, while Judge Chase was sitting on her bench, she asked two black court workers in May 2020 to explain the Black Lives Matter movement after she overheard them discussing the demonstrations in Denver over the death of George Floyd.

And how can an intelligent college-educated woman not realise how that word is not hurtful and demeaning.

It’s fair to ask the question, but she must have realised it was a terrible word when she said it, particularly in her position as a judge – but why are some people permitted to use the word and others are not? Perhaps it’s because words have consequences, and you would assume that a judge would be smart enough to recognise this.

Three Police Officers Who Seized Uninsured £150,000 Bentley Continental Took It For An Unauthorised Ride

Three police officers who seized a Bentley Continental from an uninsured driver took it for an unauthorised drive up and down the dual carriageway before impounding it.

Hertfordshire PCs Lewis Mack, Sam Butler and Ian Gould jumped into the Bentley when it was decided it had to be taken back to the police station because the motorist didn’t have insurance.

But after setting off they went on a detour, driving up and down the dual carriageway and taking it in turns to get behind the steering wheel.

Unknown to the trio the Bentley Continental GT V8 had a tracker fitted to it and its owner, who was not the man driving it that night, had an app on his phone enabling him to follow its route, and he could see they’d taken a detour before taking the vehicle back to Cheshunt Police Station in Hertfordshire.

While the three officers were in the station and preparing to finish their shift they discovered he’d made a complaint to the police.

The officers appeared before a misconduct hearing on Friday following a two-day hearing earlier in the week, to hear that the panel had determined their behaviour that night amounted to gross misconduct.

Chairman of the panel, Akbar Khan, told PCs Lewis Mack, Sam Butler and Ian Gould that public confidence and faith in the police force would have been significantly undermined by their conduct, and Mr Khan told the officers that they’d not dismissed them and that the final written warning will continue for two years.

The hearing had been told how late on the night of May 29 last year the black Bentley Continental was stopped as it moved north on the A10 towards Cheshunt because it wasn’t displaying its lights.

A new Bentley Continental GT V8 retails for more than £150,000.

Several police officers attended the scene, including the three PCs who were all part of Hertfordshire Police’s Operation Scorpion team, a proactive unit that targets burglars, robbers and those involved in drug and vehicle-related crime.

Roadside checks revealed the motorist wasn’t insured to drive the vehicle, and after he handed the keys over, it was decided the vehicle would be driven to the rear yard at Cheshunt Police Station where it would be collected by a recovery vehicle.

There’s no doubt about it, this band of policemen got caught with their trousers down, but why on earth were they not dismissed? And where was the integrity of these officers? And what if they’d wrecked the car in the process?

And of course, I can understand the temptation, but only genuine idiots would have done this! And they acted illegally, speeding as they went joyriding, and taking a vehicle out without permission, and they should have received bans, fines and dismissal.

And is the driver going to be prosecuted, and his two mates for aiding and abetting – oh yes, I forgot, it’s a two-tier system in this country – them and us!

UK Warships Will Set Sail For The Black Sea Within Weeks

According to a report, British warships will sail for the Black Sea in May amid mounting tensions between Ukraine and Russia.

A news outlet reported, citing senior naval sources that the deployment is aimed at showing solidarity with Ukraine and Britain’s NATO allies.

According to the report, the One Type 45 destroyer outfitted with anti-aircraft missiles and an anti-submarine Type 23 frigate will leave the Royal Navy’s carrier task group in the Mediterranean and travel through the Bosphorus into the Black Sea.

The report added that the RAF F-35B Lightning stealth jets and Merlin submarine-hunting helicopters will stand ready on the task group’s flagship, the carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth, to support the warships in the Black Sea.

While the Ministry of Defence insists the pre-planned deployment is routine, it comes at a time of heightened concerns of conflict between Russia and Ukraine which has seen a build-up of Russian troops along the border and clashes in eastern Ukraine between the army and pro-Russian separatists.

Last week, Vladimir Putin heightened fears of a possible Russian attack by ordering the blockade of the strategically important Kerch Strait.

Russian warships moved into a place to control the strait on Friday, cutting off sea access to Ukraine’s southeastern coastline and eastern Crimea.

The Kremlin confirmed all foreign and Ukrainian military vessels will be forbidden to travel from the Black Sea into the Sea of Azov for the next six months, although commercial vessels won’t be affected.

The blockade was announced a day after President Joe Biden cancelled plans to send two American destroyers to the Black Sea for fear of escalating tensions.

UK defence chiefs confirmed six Roy Air Force Typhoon super jets will travel to eastern Europe as part of another pre-planned mission.

The Typhoons will be supported by troops from the RAF’s No 1 Expeditionary Logistics Squadron and No 2 Mechanical Transport Squadron – they’re deploying from bases in the United Kingdom this week and will patrol the skies around the Black Sea.

A ministry spokesperson told a news outlet that the UK government was working closely with Ukraine to monitor the situation and continued to call on Russia to de-escalate.

The newspaper cited the spokesperson as saying that the United Kingdom and our international allies were steadfast in their support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Here we go again – we just don’t seem to be able to keep our beaks out of the war trough, and it’s not our fight.

Bungling Ambulance Crew Discharge Coronavirus Survivor

An inept ambulance crew discharged an 89-year-old coronavirus survivor to a random stranger’s home and tucked her into their bed.

Elizabeth Mahoney had been battling COVID 19 at County Hospital in Pontypool for ten weeks, and her family were naturally extremely relieved to discover she’d finally been given a discharge date of Friday, March 12.

But they began to get concerned when she failed to show up at her home in nearby New Inn at the scheduled time.

It was only after a frantic few hours that it transpired she’d instead been taken by ambulance to an address in Newport, more than eight miles away from where she lived and left in the bed of a stranger.

Her son Brian Mahoney said, from Cwmbran that the entire thing was a catalogue of mistakes from start to finish, and he said that they’d originally been called at around 1 pm on that day and told that their mother was on her way home, so Brian’s wife went over there to welcome her.

But about an hour later he phoned to see what was occurring and was told she hadn’t turned up.

Brian then phoned the hospital, only to be told there’d been a bit of a problem, and he said that his mother had suffered a stroke not so long ago, so naturally they were worried something serious had happened to her.

At approximately 3.40 pm he finally got a call saying she’d been taken to a house in Newport, but that the details weren’t very clear.

The 65-year-old warehouse manager added that a subsequent conversation with someone from the ambulance service revealed that Elizabeth had been put to bed at the property.

They apologised to Brian and told him they were on their way to pick her back up, but he asked what they meant, and said please don’t tell me you’ve left her there, at which point his sister broke into tears – they were all worried sick.

Brian said that, while he was still awaiting an official explanation, he believed his mum’s details were confused with those of a female patient with dementia who was also scheduled to go home from the hospital on that same day.

And he said that as far as he could tell, his mother was taken to this other lady’s house by mistake, and somehow, whoever answered the door told the ambulance staff to take her into the bedroom and make her comfortable, but he said that how they failed to notice it wasn’t their relative, he couldn’t say, but apparently, they went to check on her a little while later and that’s when the penny eventually dropped and the alarm was raised.

Elizabeth was then re-admitted to hospital, although Brian said that his mother initially wanted to come straight home, but they insisted she go back in to get checked out, especially after having just had coronavirus, and because they had no idea who’s house she’d been taken to and what it was like.

Brian has blamed his mother’s terrified and bewildered state for her failure to point out the mix up as it was happening, and he said that his mother was a pretty quiet woman anyhow, and had been on her own since his dad had died in 2019. However, she did tell them later that she couldn’t work out why she was being called by a different name.

And also, given the woman she’d been mistaken for has dementia, their guess is any endeavour to point out it wasn’t her house was probably put down to her being a tad confused, but who knows, she may have even looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and thought they’d decided to put her into a care home, but it had all been tragic.

Sounds like an episode of ‘One Foot In The Grave’, mind you, the fact that this person had been in hospital with COVID for weeks can’t be seen as humorous at all, but this might be occurring more than we’d like to think – another triumphant success managed extremely well by the NHS!

I’m sure this has probably happened before, but then what do you expect from the NHS that’s so desperate to get rid of them, anywhere will do.

Hunt For Labour’s Downing Street Moles

Senior Tory sources claim that a labyrinth of Labour Party spies has been operating at the core of Whitehall, feeding confidential information to Sir Keir Starmer’s team to destabilise the Government.

The moles – Labour sympathising civil servants, are believed to have played a pivotal part in triggering the lobbying scandal which has enabled Sir Keir Starmer’s party to construct a narrative of Tory sleaze by leaking details of David Cameron’s contacts with Ministers and officials.

They’re also suspected of using leaks to try to sabotage the Brexit withdrawal negotiations last year and to provide advance notification to the Labour leader about Government plans in the pipeline, giving him time to structure his responses.

The Tory spy hunters believe a cell of Labour supporters, centred in the Cabinet Office, was activated last year after Dominic Cummings, Boris Johnson’s former senior adviser in No 10, declared that a hard rain was coming for the Civil Service as part of proposed reforms to break up Whitehall’s grip on the establishment.

Dominic Cummings is a long-standing critic of the Whitehall establishment, describing the permanent Civil Service as an idea for the history books and proposing the abolition of senior civil servants positions.

Shortly after entering Downing Street in 2019, he became entangled in a power struggle with Cabinet Secretary Sir Mark Sedwill, which ultimately led to Sir Mark being succeeded by the Duke of Cambridge’s former private secretary, Simon Case.

Deputy Cabinet Secretary Helen MacNamara also left, along with two other departmental permanent secretaries reportedly on a Cummings hit list – Sir Philip Rutnam at the Home Office and Sir Simon McDonald at the Foreign Office.

These Whitehall battles were being fought as the narrative broke about Dominic Cummings infamous 260 mile trip from London to his parents home in Durham during the lockdown, leading some sources to speculate at the time that dark forces had been behind the exposé.

Disruptive leaks from inside No 10 quickly began appearing in sympathetic media outlets, such as the revelation in the Financial Times last September that the Government was preparing legislation that would breach international law by letting the United Kingdom unilaterally rewrite parts of the Brexit departure agreement.

The story wrought havoc with Downing Street’s negotiation policy just as the Brexit talks were entering a critical stage, and Dominic Cummings was himself expelled from No 10 later in that year amid the fallout from an internal power struggle with the Prime Minister’s fiancee, Carrie Symonds, but by then, the well had been poisoned.

But all of this appears to be just to solely accumulate more sympathy, and for the dull tediousness of Boris Johnson, especially now he no longer has Dominic Cummings doing his reasoning for him.

And it wouldn’t shock me at all if the Marxists have plants all over the place because there’s always someone with an axe to grind, and there’s no such thing as a loyal servant these days.

Prince William Asked Peter Phillips To Stand Between Him And Harry At Prince Philip’s Funeral

It’s been alleged that Prince William asked for Peter Phillips to stand between him and Harry during Prince Philip’s funeral parade yesterday.

The brothers were separated by Princess Anne’s son as they walked behind the Duke of Edinburgh’s coffin while it made its way to St George’s Chapel in Windsor yesterday afternoon.

It was the first time William and Harry had appeared together in public since Megxit saw the Duke of Sussex leave for Los Angeles with his wife Meghan.

The brothers appeared to reconcile as they left St George’s Chapel after the service. However, there seemed to be a measure of tension between them beforehand.

Sources have now told a news outlet that Harry had encountered a great deal of frostiness from many of his relations since landing in Britain a week ago and self-isolating at Frogmore Cottage, the home given to him and Meghan as a wedding present by the Queen.

And it was claimed that Princess Anne, Prince Edward and his wife Sophie failed to acknowledge Harry before or during yesterday’s service, but one source said that ironically the only one who had displayed any sympathy towards him was Prince Andrew.

And Prince Andrew knows from Sarah Ferguson, and now, first hand, how it feels to be the outsider, which Harry pretty much is.

As far as the others are concerned, there’s a profound sense of protection towards the Queen and bitterness towards Harry, and there’s little comfort for him after what he and Meghan said on Oprah.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex accused the Royals of institutional racism during the bombshell 90-minute interview last month and claimed one member of the family, not the Queen or Prince Philip, asked what colour their son Archie’s skin would be.

The source said that they’re still pretty upset, but that they’re putting on a unified display for the Queen, but that they all believe he’s behaved appallingly.

The siblings had maintained stony expressions yesterday as they walked behind their grandfather’s cortege, separated by Peter Phillips.

The Duke of Cambridge walked ahead of his brother as they entered the 15th Century chapel, and once inside the atmosphere remained frigid.

William sat with Kate immediately opposite Harry but didn’t seem to make eye contact, instead preferring to direct his gaze towards his grandfather’s coffin, and it’s pretty unlikely that William will ever trust his brother and Meghan again.

And perhaps the two brothers will never see much of each other again, unless it’s at another funeral and the like. There will never be a welcome home for Harry and his wife!

London Council Is Set To Become The First To Scrap Green Roads

A London council is set to become the first to scrap green roads after a review determined they increased traffic jams, caused more pollution and delayed the emergency services.

A newspaper outlet said that following the review, Harrow Council announced it will tear up three-cycle lanes and scrap four low traffic neighbourhood schemes.

A report, issued by the council’s traffic and road safety advisory panel revealed a great number of residents were opposed to the road changes and supported their removal.

When questioned what they thought of the Honeypot Lane cycle path in Queensbury, more than 90 per cent of respondents said that they would like it to be removed.

Comparable figures were seen for the other schemes in the local region, with 83 per cent calling for the removal of the scheme on Sheepcote Road.

Others, a whopping 87 per cent, also requested for the removal of the cycle lane on Uxbridge Road.

The report revealed there were diverse feelings towards the traffic schemes, with some acknowledging more cycle lanes could lead to more cyclists on the roads and decrease pollution, as well as improve health, but in turn lead to heightened traffic, pollution, delays and travel times.

The move to remove some low traffic areas makes Harrow one of the first councils to take the daring move.

Concluding the damaging findings, the report read that the engagement and consultation over the experimental six month period have highlighted that a preponderance doesn’t agree with the design of the cycle lanes and have shown that they aren’t working for all users.

There remains support from residents and Ward Councillors to retain the 30 mph speed limit introduced as part of the cycle lanes schemes on Honeypot Lane and Uxbridge Road.

Leader of the council Paul Osborne said it was especially apparent that the preponderance of people are against these schemes and it’s been plain from the start, and that even when evidence that the residents were against it became overwhelming, they didn’t listen.

Harrow Council cabinet will give its concluding ruling on April 29 and it’s expected to vote in favour of their removal.

It comes as just a fortnight ago it was revealed congestion has increased by 30 per cent since the coronavirus pandemic and the construction of dozens of makeshift cycleways in London, and more than 60 miles of cycle lanes have been built across London in the past year to encourage people to walk or cycle during the pandemic.

FedEx Shooter Legally Bought Two Assault Rifles

The family of the gunman who killed eight people at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis on Thursday night apologises as more is being heard of the victims.

Ex-employee Brandon Scott Hole, 19, was armed with two assault rifles when he wandered into the facility where 100 people were at work and opened fire.

Eight people were killed and another seven were injured in the incident before Brandon Scott Hole turned the rifle on himself.

Police say the teen had purchased both weapons legally last summer despite being put on mental health after his mother reported him to authorities over concerns he wanted to commit suicide.

His family maintains that they tried to get Brandon help before Thursday’s tragic shooting, for which no reason has yet been given, and the family said in a statement that they were devastated at the loss of life caused as a consequence of Brandon’s actions and that through the love of his family, they tried to get him the help he needed.

And they said that their sincerest and most sincere apologies go out to the victims of this pointless tragedy and that they were sorry for the pain and hurt being felt by their families and the whole Indianapolis community.

In March 2020, Brandon was put under a mental health temporary hold after his mother called the authorities over fears he was suicidal and wanted to die. Additionally, a shotgun was evacuated from his home.

According to WTHR, the FBI maintained they questioned Brandon in April, and that based on things seen in the suspect’s bedroom at that time, he was questioned by the FBI in April 2020.

However, no Racially Motivated Violent Extremism (RMVE) ideology was identified during the assessment and no criminal infringement was discovered. The shotgun was not returned to the suspect.

Yet the police reported on Saturday night that Brandon Hole was able to buy two assault rifles used in the incident in July and September 2020, with both purchases made after the March hold.

Brandon Hole died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound following the shooting at the FedEx facility on Thursday night.

Since Thursday night, all eight of the victims who have died have been identified.

Amarjit Sekhon, 48, was a mother of two boys, 22 and 16, and a member of the Sikh community, and she’d only been working at the FedEx facility since November – she previously worked at a bakery.

And it not only appears that they have serious crime problems over there in the US, but there are also serious mental health problems that never get addressed.

Topless Woman Dashes Down Windsor High Street

A woman who whipped off her top and ran half-naked down Windsor High Street just after the minute’s silence to the Duke of Edinburgh has been accused of insulting his memory.

The woman removed a jacket to expose her breasts as she yelled ‘save the planet. Save the trees’.

She was apprehended by police and screamed as she was handcuffed while a security guard covered her with his jacket before she was escorted away.

She might have believed that she was going to attract attention, but it was embarrassing, and there are certainly better times and better places to do things like this, especially when people are trying to remember someone who has died.

And her sister Sara, 16, added that it looked like she’d come prepared for this because she had a yellow jacket on and then threw it off and exposed the top of her body, and she timed it just when the minute silence had ended and people had been applauding for Prince Philip.

Jaspreet Singh, 66, of Southall, said it was a shameful way to interrupt what was a very respectful minute silence for the Duke of Edinburgh, and that the woman appeared to have no morals exposing herself like this, and that if she was attempting to save the planet, that was not the way that she should have been doing it.

Linda Merryweather, 51, of Wimbledon, said that it was a rubbish way to protest and that there were perfectly good ways to protest and try to save the planet – not like that, when somebody has just died and who has done such a great service for the country.

And she said that she hoped that people quickly forget what occurred and remember Prince Philip with respect and pride. The same way that he respected and lived his life dignified.

The woman was handcuffed and taken away by police. Thames Valley Police was approached for comment.

However, after all the events of the day, I think that Prince Philip would have seen the situation as extremely entertaining, even though it was a really unattractive protest, and I had to look twice when it was said that WOMAN, and I think even the trees would have lost their leaves and withered and died if this person had wanted to hug them, and this was more like a Monty Python sketch at best.
