Labour have effectively ‘decriminalised’ knife crime for under 18s. There is no deterrent. We need mandatory sentencing. Please sign our Government petition and share. @NormanBrennan https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/753568Carl Benjamin: Fair enough critique…
Fair enough critique, but it also suggests that we ought to just lay down and let the treacherous Farage get away with his ill-gotten gains. I think people understand that actually a villain needs to get his comeuppance.Craig Murray: Note, there has never to this day…
Note, there has never to this day been a SNP apology to donors or acknowledgment of the stolen money. Remember that when new party treasurer Doug Chapman was blocked from seeing the accounts and invoices, complained and resigned, the brainwashed cult all rallied round Nicola.Carl Benjamin: The economy sputtered to a halt…
The economy sputtered to a halt because of the Boriswave. We have spent untold billions on millions of foreign moochers, and the "right wing" Telegraph is convinced that without them we will be eating dirt.Ben Habib: Everyone is panicking about @RestoreBritain_…
Everyone is panicking about @RestoreBritain_ splitting @reformparty_uk vote and allowing Burnham to win. The panic is misplaced. The worst political outcome would be Restore stepping aside to allow Reform a victory. With its current direction of travel, Reform offers the country no redemption. By stepping aside, Restore would concrete in Reform’s hopelessness. Restore must fight this election and do the best it can. If it were to gain 7% of the vote, as predicted, that would send an earth quake through Reform. Reform might then correct its ways. A Burnham victory makes not a blind bit of difference to the country. Labour has a 156 seat majority. Whether Burnham or some other idiot from Labour becomes PM makes no difference. And for those worried about an early general election - turkeys do not vote for Christmas. It is not happening. Restore and Rebecca Shepherd must fight this by election tooth and nail. I know @_AdvanceUK supporters are already in Makerfield campaigning on their behalf. I will help where I can.David Kurten: This is an uncosted gimmick from Reform…
This is an uncosted gimmick from Reform with all kinds of unintended consequences, that will be flip-flopped on if they are ever in office (which is highly unlikely). Our nation needs lower taxation with financial responsibility, and deserves better than populist slop from Reform written on the back of an envelope.
Liz Webster: Brexit promises have turned to dust…
🤡 Brexit promises have turned to dust. “Take back control so the NHS is bolstered in a booming Global Britain” has become “celebrate that we can ban leaky European toilets.” The Telegraph trying to spin this as a win is genuinely embarrassing. Ten years on, the great Brexit dividend is… banning leaky EU toilets so we can go back to Victorian lavatories.Carl Benjamin: You are the left…
You are the left. Your Tories brought in MILLIONS of third-worlders. They smuggled in Afghan rapists. They imposed draconian internet censorship that THEY FELL AFOUL OF. We are not backing down. You can capitulate like you did for Boris in 2019, but we will not.Liz Webster: Daniel Hannan accidentally gives…
🤡 Daniel Hannan accidentally gives the game away here. He admits: 👉 Brexit imposed major costs and disruption 👉 Britain still hasn’t settled into a workable relationship with Europe 👉 the debate is frozen in a permanent culture war 👉 and many practical UK-EU arrangements now work worse because everything is viewed through ideological lenses But then insists rejoin is impossible bc changing course would involve disruption 🤡 “We’ve already paid such a high price for this decision that we must keep paying it forever.” And the irony? Even Hannan ends up describing some form of closer economic European framework as the logical long-term solution. Bc geography, trade and interdependence didn’t disappear in 2016.David Frost: Labour are trying to reconstruct…
Labour are trying to reconstruct the ghastly Theresa May / Olly Robbins deal which they themselves voted against in 2019 and which their own manifesto precludes. They've reached the stage of making one terrible offer after another to the EU because they are desperate for any deal, whatever is in it.Carl Benjamin: If you vote for Reform…
If you vote for Reform, you are voting for the architect of the Online Harms Bill, the Home Secretary who oversaw the Boriswave, and the immigration minister who smuggled in 30,000 Afghan men to rape British children. We are already repenting. Time to vote Restore.John Smith: The most frightening fact is…
The most frightening fact is your government won't save or improve your standard of living unless you come from the top income earning class. Democracy isn't broken it's dead.Liz Webster: David Miliband is spot on…
✅ David Miliband is spot on. Starmer’s current UK-EU reset is doomed to fail! We need a much bolder approach, starting with a single market for goods and building from there. Brexit has cost us economically and the government must now find ways to fix it without pretending otherwise. Time for realism on need for Europe🇪🇺 https://theguardian.com/politics/2026/may/23/uk-eu-european-union-reset-david-miliband-single-market-goodsBen Habib: Most, if not all, people who follow me…
Most, if not all, people who follow me accept the United Kingdom is facing one of the biggest threats it has ever faced. That being the case, we could not possibly be saved by a narcissistic, self enriching, dishonest grifter. Please bear that in mind.
Chris Williamson: Nine years ago today…
Nine years ago today, @NewhamIndParty were part of the Labour Party led by Jeremy Corbyn. Some of them travelled up from London to campaign for me in Derby North, which I successfully contested as the country's most Corbyn-centric candidate in England's most marginal seat. Less than two years later I was suspended from the Labour Party for challenging the anti-Semitism scam and for defending grassroots activists who were being traduced by the genocidal Zionist lobby. I was also criticised for defending high profile victims of the witch-hunt like Ken Livingstone and Jackie Walker. Two and half years after that photograph was taken, the Corbyn project lay in tatters and the path had been cleared for the Starmer regime. Starmer and his cronies have been so appalling that they've cleared the way for the political spivs and fraudsters in Reform. Tragically, those days of hope that were exemplified in that 2017 campaign, were squandered by Jeremy Corbyn and the liberal left inside the Labour Party who bent over backwards to appease a bunch of Zionists who were hell-bent on destroying Jeremy's leadership. That experience should serve as a cautionary tale to @ZackPolanski and the Green Party, who seem to be making the same mistakes that Jeremy Corbyn and the liberal left made by seeking to appease the Zionist lobby. That strategy is doomed to fail. The only hope that Polanski and Greens have is to confront the Zionists head on and never make any concessions to these bad faith actors. If you give Zionists a millimetre they will always take a mile.Lee Hurst: Sounds like Labour have taken…
Sounds like Labour have taken a leaf out of their book and condemned the British taxpayer to a similar debt bondage.David Icke: This is the problem I have…
This is the problem I have had all along with the most promoted sections of the 'alternative' media. Views that change according to what suits you at the time. Owens: 2024 - pro-Trump. 2026 - anti-Trump. Carlson: 2024 - pro-Trump. 2026 - anti-Trump. Icke: 2016 - exposing Trump and saying political 'Left'-'Right' is a scam. 2026 - still exposing Trump and still saying political 'Left'-'Right' is a scam.David Frost: Well done to @GregHands…
Well done to @GregHands for his consistent campaigning on eGates. No one else seems interested, least of all the British Government and the responsible minister Nick Thomas-Symonds, despite the fact Keir Starmer announced it a year ago this week.👇Alex Wickham: NEW: Bloomberg Saturday read…
NEW: Bloomberg Saturday read Is Andy Burnham Labour’s saviour, or is it just… vibes? — The last week has been fascinating. Burnham has had a bumpy start. He’s boxed himself in by committing to the fiscal rules and Labour’s manifesto on tax. It significantly limits his room for manoeuvre to deliver his promise of change. — Some in Labour worry he’s already trapped by the same political and economic constraints that hampered Keir Starmer. While there’s no doubt he polls better and has more energy, they stress he isn’t a messiah who can fix all their problems. — Burnham performed 5 u-turns this week: on rejoining the EU, on the fiscal rules, backing a hardline immigration policy, reversing his trans views, and ditching a 50p top rate of tax. An MP on the left says he looks inauthentic. Another compares it to Starmer’s safety-first Ming vase strategy. — More clarifications are coming. Allies say it’ll be difficult to drop Starmer’s Brexit red lines on the single market and customs union before an election, and that it’ll be hard to fully nationalise energy and water. Ambitions are being scaled back. — A supporter says he’s being sensible and scraping the barnacles off the boat. But it shows he knows he has the same problem as Starmer losing votes both left and right, and he has a similar response: picking policies that appeal to each side. — So what’s different? Tax rises on capital sound likely, but that won’t raise much money and he’s now ruled out touching the big taxes. Some in Labour worry about the impact on growth and investment of a virtue-signalling tax policy. — One MP warns that by loudly promising “real change” but not giving himself the room to deliver it, Burnham could quickly see the public turn on him, just as they did on Starmer. The criticism doing the rounds is that he is just Starmerism with vibes and a northern accent. — There are growing concerns about the lack of serious planning Burnham has done for No10. His policy platform is erratic. His political operation is threadbare and largely consists of Ed Miliband’s team. MPs are appealing to Burnham to quickly expand his circle to avoid the sort of factional warfare that did for Starmer. — Some MPs also worry Burnham might immediately enter an economic downturn and new cost-of-living crisis just as he becomes PM, which the public will inevitably blame him for, preventing a honeymoon period. Some think he made a strategic error going so soon and should have let Starmer take the pain coming in the next six months. — Some MPs also want Burnham to stop getting into fights on Twitter, which he has been doing all week, raising eyebrows. His supporters say he’s a unity candidate who can attract voters from across the political divide. This campaign is already putting that to the test.Philip Proudfoot: Entry-level jobs have been replaced…
Entry-level jobs have been replaced by data centres in Virgina. When will our government — or any government — get real about the need to start planning now for what AI is doing to the labour market?Gareth Icke: The establishment want us angry…
The establishment want us angry, but not too angry. Just angry enough to start a fight with each other, but not angry enough to start a revolution.Clr Brian Silvester: 813,000 migrants came into UK in 2025…
813,000 migrants came into UK in 2025...& just 23% came to work !!!! The rest are supported by the hard hit UK taxpayers & Government borrowing. No wonder Labour are borrowing an EXTRA £132 BILLION a year. UK has enough hangers on, there is no need to import them !!
June Slater: When you take over a position…
When you take over a position in a company, existing staff show you the ropes. They help during teething period, until you find your feet Very sad to see experienced councillors slapping democracy in the face as their hostile attitude towards new inexperienced councillors entering the chamber impedes the new councillors learning . Find out yourself ... Go look it up ... That's your problem.. That would be disciplinary in the real world. But councils have had their cosy world turned upside down . Their ridiculous spending plain for all to see . I'll take inexperienced and a good heart over protectionism any day of the week. Good luck to all the Reform newbies who have entered the world of debt and destruction and have the courage to try and put it right .Aaron Bastani: Notice Lib Dems & Greens working together…
Notice Lib Dems & Greens working together in Birmingham. There’s huge range of councillors, of all parties, across country. This is just childish and petulant. Labour either think locals are best placed to shape their politics, or they don’t. People are tired of London diktat!David Frost: Rachel Reeves’s economic farce…
"Rachel Reeves’s economic farce is about to become a tragedy" There is a Ruritanian feel to British economic policy just now, a kind of comic-opera statism. But the convictions beneath it are far from amusing. My @Telegraph 👇 http://telegraph.co.uk/gift/a837e5ca5…Dale Vince: Wes Streeting is right about this…
Wes Streeting is right about this - we do tax money made with money at half the rate we tax money made with a pair of hands (quote from my book 2020..:) - it’s part of a broad range of tax issues we need to look at, an inherent inequality. But he’s wrong to present this as a wealth tax. And it’s unhelpful to do so, it might be an attempt to burnish his left wing credentials or just a misunderstanding. Equalising these two starkly different rates of tax is actually just the ending of a loophole for the wealthy, a significant advantage they currently have. We call money made with money (investments/assets..) a Capital Gain whereas money made in a job we call Income. That’s fundamentally unjust. Both are forms of income. Our tax system was written by people with money for people with money and it entrenches wealth, clearly - and increases the wealth poverty gap - year in and out. Tax equality is what this is about - some fundamental fairness.Andrew Bridgen: How can the ‘Green movement’ claim…
How can the ‘Green movement’ claim to save the planet when the all the worn out and redundant wind turbines and solar panels are heading to landfill in their millions?Lee Hurst: I have come to the conclusion…
I have come to the conclusion that it’s always better to target the party (Labour) rather than the individual Ministers and MPs that make it up. Why? Well what we are seeing now is some voters hating Starmer, but somehow still willing to give them another go if they replace him. We’ve all been guilty of it. We should ensure future criticism is of the party as a whole.Liz Webster: nails Brexit caller! No plan...
🔥 @mrjamesob nails Brexit caller! No plan, no clue, just anger at immigrants! Once you strip away culture war politics, Brexit defenders still struggle to point to measurable economic gains and fall back on identity/ immigration rather than outcomes.Read more
