Walid Saadaoui, 38, and Amar Hussein, 52 , were convicted at Preston Crown Court after investigators uncovered their plan to smuggle automatic weapons and ammunition into the UK. Authorities revealed that the men intended to launch a gun rampage targeting mass gatherings of Jewish people.

Poilievre’s Political Rebrand: From Parliament Hill to “Approachable Pierre”

                                           Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre 


Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has unveiled a softer, more casual image in what some see as a strategic bid to broaden his appeal — particularly among women voters. Known for his sharp suits, glasses, and combative style, Poilievre has traded in his trademark eyewear for aviator sunglasses, swapped navy blazers for bootcut jeans, and adopted a more relaxed tone on the campaign trail.

The makeover comes after disappointing results in recent byelections, where the party underperformed in key suburban ridings — areas with a high proportion of female voters. According to polling, Poilievre continues to face challenges connecting with women, with fewer than four in ten believing he understands their priorities.

Poilievre credits his wife, Anaida, for encouraging the style shift, saying she prefers him without glasses. Beyond wardrobe changes, he has also shown flashes of warmth in public appearances, accepting more follow-up questions from reporters and leaning into personal anecdotes.

Whether this rebrand will translate into stronger support remains to be seen, but the move signals a recognition that image — as much as policy — could be key to winning over skeptical voters ahead of the next election.
