The Makerfield constituency deserves a local champion.

I can’t wait to get started. 🇬🇧

“Last year alone, Muslims kiIIled 500,000 Christians in only Nigeria. Why are they only talking about Palestine?"

He is 100% correct.

[Mike Gardner @mikegardner_wb]

“Tone deaf and downright insulting”

This is a remarkable and pitch perfect critique of Keir Starmer’s disastrous relaunch speech.

All the more remarkable because it’s a Labour MP - Jonathan Hinder - who is saying it.

I think he should join Reform.

This is SUPERB 👏👏👏

The horror of this is being ignored by most msm because it doesn’t fit their narrative. Shameful

[ClarksonsFarm @ClarksonsFarm1]

Yet another stealth tax on the working class.

Once again poorly disguised behind the thin veil of a net-zero initiative.

Incredibly unfair, hoping for a complete U-turn on this ridiculous policy.

🔥 One Of The Greatest, Most Brutally Honest Scenes In TV History.

In Landman, Billy Bob Thornton’s character Tommy Norris drops a masterclass monologue that completely obliterates the delusional “green energy” fantasy in under two minutes.

Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris is out in the Texas oil patch, looking at those massive 400-foot wind turbines supposedly “powering a clean future”… while they’re actually running remote oil wells because there’s no grid electricity out there.

She asks, “They use clean energy to power the oil wells?”

Tommy fires back: “They use alternative energy. There’s nothing clean about this.”

He breaks down the “clean” reality: These things sit on giant concrete foundations poured with diesel, made from steel cooked in fossil fuel furnaces, hauled and cranked up by fuel-guzzling trucks and cranes, then slathered in petroleum lubricants just to spin for their measly 20-year life.

Tommy doesn’t stop there. Fossil fuels aren’t some dirty secret, they’re the lifeblood of everything modern. The roads you drive, the tires on your EV, the plastic in your phone, your clothes, your fridge, your medicine, your makeup and lipstick… you name it.

Pretending we can wave a magic wand and “transition” away from oil overnight? That’s the real delusion sold by folks who’ve never gotten their hands dirty in the real world.

Taylor Sheridan and Billy Bob delivered one of the most honest, unapologetic scenes on TV in years. No preaching, just straight facts from the patch.

Watch the clip. None of this is “green” or “clean”. Not the turbines, not the transition, not the fantasy.

[Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf]

Muslims have destroyed thousands of churches across the Middle East and forced 2 million indigenous Christians to flee their homes.

They consider Christians infidels who must convert, pay jizya, or be killed.

Zero outrage by leftists or Muslims!

[Campaign Against Antisemitism @antisemitism]

We are absolutely heartbroken that this is how low Britain has sunk. This horrific act truly plumbs new depths.

Hatzola is a volunteer-run ambulance service run by the Jewish community but catering to everyone, Jews and non-Jews alike, working with the NHS to save lives as fast as possible. They provide outstanding medical care at lightning speed every hour of every day, and fundraise to buy ambulances and equipment. They are truly a shining example of the Jewish community coming together to help everyone in the most fundamental of ways by giving the gift of life.

Burning their ambulances in an attempt to put them out of action is a truly repulsive act of antisemitic hatred in a Britain where Jews now have to keep everything from schools to synagogues under constant guard. Our society has become infested with the sickness of antisemitism.

In this case it is not only about catching the perpetrators and restoring the ambulances, but about politicians accepting that by tolerating everything from hate marches to hate preachers, they have created this sickening mess, and time has run out for them to act. The law must change, fast, but so must society.

The people spewing obsessive conspiracy theories about Jews, Zionists and Israelis are not social justice warriors, they are hateful bigots who are feeding this madness and must be stood up to and told as much by ordinary decent people.

A powerful moment when Iranian Christians sang, “WAY MAKER” in Farsi at a recent event! 🙌🏼🔥

One of the greatest lies ever told is that all Iranians are muslims. Iranian Christians from all over the world are crying out to the Lord as their only hope for breakthrough in their homeland.

[Houman David Hemmati, MD, PhD @houmanhemmati]

🇮🇷 47 years ago, I stood at a window in Tehran as a 3-year-old boy, smelling burning tires and hearing the chants that would steal my country. I didn’t have words for what was happening. Today, I am watching smoke rise over the same city — but this time the smoke is not the end of Iran. It is, God willing, the beginning of her resurrection.

Several weeks ago I wrote in that the fever of 1979 was finally breaking. I never imagined I would wake up to see that fever confronted so directly. Israel — with the clear support of the United States — has launched a preemptive strike deep into Tehran and against the regime’s military machinery. Explosions in the capital. Military targets hit. The IRGC’s aura of invincibility, already cracked, is shattering in real time.

I do not celebrate war. No decent person does. What I celebrate — what millions of Iranians inside the country and in the diaspora have prayed for in secret for decades — is the possibility that a regime which has no right to exist may finally be forced to go.

This is the same regime that:
- Armed and cheered the October 7 massacre against Israel for no reason other than pure genocidal hatred.
- Murdered tens of thousands of its own sons and daughters who dared to walk peacefully in the streets demanding the most basic freedoms.
- Gouges out the eyes of young women for the “crime” of wearing makeup.
- Hangs teenagers from cranes for posting a tweet.
- Exports terror, poverty, and darkness to every corner it can reach including the U.S.

No nation, no people, should have to live under that. Not Israelis. Not Americans. Not Lebanese. Not Syrians. And certainly not Iranians.

I am a physician who has spent his life trying to heal bodies and a son of Iran who has spent his life mourning a stolen homeland. What we are witnessing is not aggression — it is surgery. Painful, necessary surgery to remove a tumor that has metastasized for 47 years. The tumor is the Islamic Republic that has hijacked Iran.

To the brave pilots and special operators of the Israeli Air Force and the men and women of the United States military now carrying out this mission: I pray for you with everything I have.

May God shield you from harm. May every missile find its target and every soldier return home safely to the families who love them. You are not invaders. You are the answer to the prayers of millions who have whispered “enough” in the dark since 1979. You are giving our friends the chance to breathe free air again. The entire region will owe you a peace we have not known in my lifetime.

To my fellow Iranians watching from inside the country right now, heart pounding, maybe hiding in basements or on rooftops: Hold on. The end is clearer than it has ever been. The regime’s fear is real. Their eyes — those same eyes that once stared down at us with absolute power — now show something they haven’t shown in decades: panic. The math has changed. The window of 1979 is finally closing.

To the little three-year-old boy I once was — and to every little boy and girl in Tehran, Isfahan, Shiraz, and Tabriz today who hears explosions instead of lullabies: This time the sounds are not the closing of a door. They are the opening of one.

The road ahead will not be easy. Transitions never are. But the direction is unmistakable. A secular, prosperous, free Iran is no longer a dream — it is becoming an inevitability.

I have lived the stolen life so that others might not have to. Today, for the first time in 47 years, I allow myself to believe that the stealing is almost over.

Thank you, Israel. Thank you, America. The Iranian people — the real Iran — will never forget.

The fever is breaking.
The dawn of 2026 is here.
And this time, the light wins.
