Links To Start February

I've been out dealing with my non-blogging life, so today's set of links is going to be somewhat shorter than usual.  Here then, are a few things going on (with my own $0.02 thrown in):

From the Express, the Irish flag will be banned from this year's St. Patrick's day parade in Strabane, Northern Ireland because it might (gasp!) offend some people.  (It's Northern Ireland, not Ireland itself, but this is a departure from tradition.)

From The Telegraph, a review commissioned by Prime Minister Theresa May recommends that sharia marriage be recognized in British law.  (You'll have to register or log in to read the entire article.)

From the Daily Star, gang violence erupts among migrants in Calais, France.

From France24, more on the violence in Calais.

From Deutsche Welle, three jailed Catalan leaders take their case to a UN panel.

From the NL Times, a hand grenade was found tied to the door of a sisha lounge in Amsterdam.

From Russia Today, the European Union is saddled with lots of "secret" debt.

From Arutz Sheva, "how the Muslim Brotherhood" is taking over France".

From The Star, Canadian MPs sing the new gender-neutral version of their anthem, but their Speaker is not impressed.

From The Daily Signal, what we lose by removing statues of people like Columbus.

From Breitbart Jerusalem, Israel builds a wall, and it works.

From the Mirror, the Chinese have a nickname for the above-mentioned Theresa May.

From Newsweek, Melania Trump (or more precisely, an actress portraying her) quacks like a duck.

From The Incline, the weird history of Groundhog Day.

From the New York Post, a pervert is banned from every farm in Britain.

And from The Babylon Bee, a blogger condemns himself as a heretic.
