Excellent move from Labour, keeping Burnham out, keeps the idiot Starmer in, making an early election more likely.


Remember when @McDonaldsUK was “fast” food. Instead it prioritises delivery above actual customers.


Britain is pure ADHD. we invent something and then ten years later just get bored with it and let everybody else do it better.


Rachel Reeves is set to hit “middle-class” homes with a new levy in the Budget — a £600m surcharge on high-value properties. Council tax bands F–H to be revalued, an extra charge on the top 300k homes. Experts warn it could freeze the property market.#UKPolitics #Budget2025


A great example of @UKLabour crying like babies because their policies are destroying this country. True EU style politics, keep voting till you get the result you want or change the rules

I’m just going to say it - and yeah, plenty won’t like it - but the excitement around the Oasis reunion isn’t just about the tunes. It’s about Britain. About a time when things still sort of made sense. When the country felt more grounded, more stable, less like it was spiralling…


Still think @RachelReevesMP is a competent chancellor?

Next stop the IMF? The rate of interest on UK 10 year gilts is now higher than one time European fiscal basket cases Greece and Italy. My column on an increasingly perilous predicament, and a political class seemingly incapable of doing anything about it telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/…



Where is this money coming from.

Wow the money just flows doesn't it



This.

At some point, the Chancellor is going to have to go before the country and tell the truth - that our system of American taxes with Scandinavian services is not sustainable. That, finally, we have actually run out of other people's money. But Reeves doesn't want to do that.…

The UK is on the verge of bankruptcy - national debt has hit £2.7 trillion, almost 100% of GDP. That means the country owes as much as it earns. That kind of debt fuels inflation, weakens your savings & makes you poorer. And there’s only one thing the government will do next:…

When Ed Miliband’s name is being floated as the next Chancellor, you know beyond reasonable doubt that you're living in a wankocracy in terminal decline.

London mayor wants to legalise cannabis, man jailed today for killing a schoolchild in a cannabis induced rage, what could go wrong.


If @JeremyClarkson s farm shows you one thing about this nation, it’s that red tape and pointless rules hinder this country’s productivity. We bang on about lower productivity without thinking about the consequences of the silly rules we have introduced.

Bollocks They’ve managed just 36,000 so far — and housing completions are actually down 5.6% since they took office. There are 1,059 working days left in this Parliament. That means they now need to build 1,382 homes every single day — including weekends and bank holidays —…

“How?” Here’s one for you, Darren. How did you quadruple immigration, blow billions on Net Zero vanity projects, and still tell working Brits they need to pay more tax “for fairness”? You talk like a tax accountant and strut like a statesman, but mate you’re a glorified…


“Starmer’s winter fuel fiasco wasn’t in the manifesto. No one wanted it. So why’s it happening? Because a 30-year-old Treasury official put it on a list, and ministers nodded it through.” D Cummings, The Spectator #UKPolitics #Starmer #WinterFuelPayments #DominicCummings


I have always thought like this, there is now a serious lack of personal responsibility in the nation, primarily because people assume the state will bail them out!

The pursuit of ‘equality’ has resulted in unprecedented unfairness. Before parents can provide for their own children, an enormous proportion of their earnings are taken from them and transferred to: * People who don’t work * People who don’t need a state pension * People who…

Zia Yusuf slams Rachel Reeves’ spending plans: 'She’s spending money like a drunken sailor… £100bn a year just on interest payments! That’s more than defence and education combined.' Says the economy’s flat, the population’s rising — and we’re all getting poorer.
