For the weirdos in my replies saying “Britain GDP rose because of the Industrial Revolution, not colonialism.” The Industrial Revolution was financed by empire. Britain extracted the modern equivalent of £45 trillion from India (Patnaik), ran its mills on 100% slave-grown cotton…

Hartley-Brewer: Why is colonialism bad? Me: “When Britain arrived in 1700s India had 27% of global GDP. After 200 years of theft and millions starved to death by 1947 India had 3% of global GDP, 90% living below the poverty line, a literacy rate of 17% and life expectancy of 27”

No you don’t Matt. Go ask anyone my age, it is 99% because of quality of life, cost of living and wanting to escape the career stress of Britain. Everyone I know my age has thought of leaving and none have said “immigration” if that’s what you’re alluding to.

257,000 British people left Britain in 2024. This is the highest level since 1964, when records began. We all know why.



Shabana Mahmood I’m afraid to say, weaponises her own personal experience to shut down criticism of Labour policies which, let’s be honest, are recycled Reform policies. Praise from people like Rupert Lowe should tell you everything we need to know about her “sweeping changes”.

Today, I have set out the most sweeping changes to the asylum system in a generation. We must restore order and control to our borders. So we can continue to offer sanctuary to those fleeing danger.

Grok gone full hasbara.


Has anyone ever used the inflation calculator on the BoE website? We are getting generationally poorer and there’s nothing we can do about it

Israeli singer Moshiko Mor singing: "Who doesn't have water, food & electricity? "Gaza!" Who is going to live in tents? "Gaza!" They feed off suffering and pain of others like it’s the only thing keeping them alive.

MKs and Ministers handing out sweets and celebrating the passing of the “Death Penalty for Terrorists” Law (Palestinians only, obviously).

The most important country to join the Abraham Accords would be Palestine 🇵🇸 When Palestine is an independent country that agrees to such an arrangement, there will be peace. Without Palestine, it's not peace yet.


How has grok gotten SO bad with the amount of errors. It posts blatant errors daily and contradicts itself with public posts and private back and forth. Very bad look for Elon

Islam and Judaism are two beautiful and deeply humanistic religions, and there is no reason our communities should not be allies. Stop pitting us against each other. We are human beings, not pawns.

Israel’s Minister Ben-Gvir shows up in person to hand eviction notices to Palestinian Bedouin families in the Naqab desert. How diseased must a nation be to find joy in someone else’s misery ?


Yes, for this guy specifically. And I’m not even a dog person.

Would you drive 500 miles in the middle of the night if someone found your lost dog?

It’s amazing how you care so deeply about the Christians of Nigeria and zilch about the Christians in the birthplace of Christianity (Palestine)

"Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria. The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening there, and in numerous other Countries. We stand ready, willing, and able to save our Great Christian Population around the World!" - President Trump

I am 100% sure if someone like Mamdani tried to stand as London mayor Labour would block him.

Inspirational campaign and victory for @ZohranKMamdani in NYC. Lessons for progressives the world over.

Not a single mention of Christmas. London is lost.

Oxford Street’s Christmas lights are now on. Hundreds of thousands of stars have lit up the nation’s high street. Throughout this month London’s Christmas lights are coming to town and the festive period is the perfect time to enjoy everything the capital has to offer.

I’m from Sri Lankan heritage. I commanded submarines for the Royal Navy. I’ve served this country almost my entire adult life. And in the last year, I’ve been challenged directly about my skin colour in the UK. Never happened since the 1970's and 80's.

I wonder if the folks attacking Mamdani for singling out Israel have noticed that Hindu nationalists loathe him too. Why? Because his opposition to religious, ethnic + racial supremacy is NOT confined to Israel. He's a principled opponent of ethnonationalism, including in India
