Dear @JohnHealey_MP , did you know that the State Pension pays £241 per week?
Your proposed new Minimum Wage pays £528 for 40 hours.
HOW THE FUCK DO YOU EXPECT WE PENSIONERS TO LIVE ON LESS THAN HALF THE MINIMUM WAGE?????
@coophos Wilson was supposed to be the missing link behind the main striker,that bit of flair we'd been missing since Pablo departed,he's been anything but that for whatever reason..
It’s sickening isn’t it when 6 Million people on benefits will receive £150 energy bill discount this winter & yet workers who are struggling to pay their bills get NOTHING.
A lot of people on benefits are better off than workers because they get so many more additional benefits that workers don’t get.
It’s wrong that you can be better off on benefits than working.
REWARD WORKERS NOT SHIRKERS
I’m fortunate. I’ve been successful in business, I have money, I don’t have to worry about our financial future. I donate my entire MP salary to local charities, to show that I’m in politics for the right reasons.
I’ll be honest. I don’t have to worry about paying the mortgage each month, or having enough money to buy the children what they want for their birthday, or even being able to put food on the table.
I don’t, but I know millions of Brits do. That’s the brutal reality.
Hardworking British men and women should not have to live like that. If you work hard, put the hours in and live honestly?
You should be rewarded for it, properly.
That means lower tax, MUCH lower tax and higher thresholds, but it also means a state that can keep inflation under control so that the cost of living does not outstrip your wage.
Fuel, food shop, clothes, electricity. Everything. It all gets more expensive whilst so many earn the same.
Inflation. All driven up by the decisions of politicians who will never have to live with the consequences of their actions.
Our economy is completely broken. It works for the international corporates, the bureaucrats, the London managers.
It does NOT work for the plumber, the entrepreneur, the farmer, the construction worker, the hairdresser, the nurse, the sole trader, the HGV driver, the police officer.
We must aim to entirely reshape how the economy works so that vast profits made from British workers are not shifted offshore through complex corporate structures whilst working families are bled dry by our corrupt state.
I want family businesses to thrive, entrepreneurs to succeed, risk-takers to flourish. Those who contribute, protect and enhance our society rewarded. I want the shirkers and piss-takers crushed.
That’s what I want. That’s what Restore Britain wants.
I don’t want the parasitic global corporations or our rotten state profiting off the ingenuity and sweat of the British risk-taker. Rotten monopolies that have no respect for the individual will end.
In short - an economy that provides for our people.
There is ONE way out. A Britain that lives within it means. Just as we all have to, our state must do the same. Spend less than it earns. It’s that simple.
That is how we make Britain affordable again, make Britain ambitious again and make Britain work again.
That’s what a Restore Britain Government will deliver.
Release the innate brilliance and tenacity of the British people.
Our entrepreneurial spirit conquered the world before and we can do it again.
Kemi Badenoch was outstanding at PMQs today. Burnham red faced, on the back foot and with no answers.
A full broadside that exposed his terminal weakness. The country can see who's fighting for them and who's just a northern gammon.
Daniel Farke on the officiating:
“Three fouls on DCL in the first half, stopping good counter-attacking opportunities, and not one yellow card. There was no consistency in the decisions, and when I asked the fourth official for an explanation, he couldn’t provide one.” 😤 #LUFC
The club have said there are no plans at present to introduce this and we have been assured this would not be done without relevant supporter consultation.
However, we would always strongly oppose any model that results in fans paying more per ticket based on demand.
Mohammed Abbas came by boat in March.
By June, he’d assaulted a police officer and was convicted.
By July, he’d been given a free home. Two days later, he sexually assaulted two young girls.
Only Reform will end this utter madness.
@SiJohnsonSJUS From what I'm reading about 46% of the cost of petrol is tax that goes back into the government coffers,don't tell me that can't be lowered,welcome to rip off Britain..
Andy Burnham: "I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help."
He's joking, right? About 46% of the price of filling up your tank is TAX. That's absolutely something the PM could do something about. And how about expanding drilling for oil and gas in the North Sea?
Charlie Ireland was supposed to meet with representatives of the Labour Party including 'The Labour Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs' to discuss farming & agriculture. They’ve cancelled on him, for the third time.
Arise Sir Kev.
Sir Kevin Sinfield has officially received his knighthood from Prince William in a ceremony at Windsor Castle.
He was recognised for his career in rugby league and raising more than £13m for charities tackling motor neurone disease

Wow! Just when you think you can not admire Sir Kev any more, he does this, 4 ultra marathons down, fifth day and then destroys this hill near Marsden Golf club, keep watching
