🚨Holy Cow! The UK government just got caught hiding twelve new migrant centres.
Speaker Lindsay Hoyle furious at Labour for keeping MPs in the dark.
They can’t keep doing this in secret.
Britain is being transformed against the people’s will.
End the betrayal.
Labour MPs expect us to care about the so called “personal attacks” on Bridget Phillipson.
Since they’ve spent years calling half of the country racist, xenophobic, Islamophobic and transphobic, I’ll continue not to care.
Victory for common sense (for now, at least)…
It’s a relief that @EnvAgency have finally realised that prosecuting volunteers for cleaning & restoring a river (that they had left to rot) without permission was not a good look, so they have dropped their charges in favour of a ‘warning’. Thank you for all your support & encouragement, from across the country, the political spectrum & around the world. I’m certain that the comms disaster suffered by the EA over this was crucial in getting them to begin to see sense at last.
This is, however, not the end of the story. The River Roding & its tributaries, like most rivers in the UK have still been abandoned & in parts left to die by the Environment Agency, with no plans to even put a stop to the serious environmental crimes taking place (like illegal sewage dumping), let alone to begin the process of restoration that the river so desperately needs.
I am therefore seeking a meeting with the EA’s Chief Executive to ask (1) that the EA instead use its prosecuting powers for good, to demand a detailed plan from Thames Water to fix all illegal sewage discharges in years, not decades & (2) that the EA turns this whole saga into a good outcome by using the River Roding as a pilot scheme for how the EA can work with, rather than against, grassroots river guardians, to provide the protection & restoration our rivers so desperately need.
I hope they will accept these very reasonable requests. But if not, I will continue to defy the EA, & will not be seeking their permission or authorisation to continue to care for & restore the river I love.
@bylandseaandair You've heard of the highways police force right? Its their fuckin job to deal with everything going on in a road traffic incident.. especially when were in the middle of a heatwave... twat
Spoke to someone who was 6hrs in at the time! The highways police are thick as shit and literally cause more stress and danger when they get involved! The whole area would've been affected because all they did was hold the traffic indefinitely when they shouldve rerouted it!
A constituent has been stuck on the M25 near Oxted for 8 hours. It is 40 degrees in her car. She has kids with her. She is running out of water. The person from the car in front has been airlifted to hospital with dehydration. Police seem to be saying it’s not their job to give out water.
@SurreyPolice@NationalHways please sort this out urgently.
People need water and some may need evacuation. You have protocols for this situation - please implement them - this is an emergency! 🙏
I would be absolutely devastated if my son grew up to be like this💔
The arrogance, the rudeness, the ignorance & the self-entitlement of this guy is off the charts.
The handrails are there for a reason, to help those who need them.
How dare he just stand there *on a staircase* “relaxing” & refuse to move. Why did nobody help this lady 😩
The fact he is filming it, I can only assume means he is somehow proud of this behaviour.
Utter low-rent loser and unfortunately, society is full of them😔
Well done this lady for standing her ground and I’m sorry that nobody helped you…
Hot Hot Hot?
Facts from @Telegraph
The current UK record for the month of June stands at: 35.6C
in Camden Square London in.....1957
in Southampton in ......1976
Europe’s deadliest heatwaves are almost always caused by "Omega Blocks" an atmospheric pattern named after the Greek letter Ω.
A ridge of high pressure sits over one region, flanked by two low-pressure systems, creating a horseshoe-shaped kink in the jet stream. The result is a heat dome: a “lid” of high pressure trapping hot air near the surface.
The summer of 2003, the hottest European summer since at least 1540, was driven by one.
Cleaner air has reduced the cooling effect once provided by some forms of pollution.
Remember that time Vincent Kompany gave Andy Burnham £3m from his testimonial match to tackle homelessness on the streets of Manchester and he doubled it? The homeless population, not the cash!
Dear @EnvAgency.
In February this year, after 4 years of asking you to look after the Aldersbrook, I led a team of volunteers to do your job for you & clean out tonnes of silt & leaves, as well as hundreds of bags of rubbish. Through the effort of community volunteers & donations, & at zero cost to the taxpayer, we turned a forgotten silted up ditch back into a river again.
Last nights intense rain storm showed why our actions are the very definition of “strengthening water resilience”. A huge amount of rain fell in a short time, but the restored section of the Aldersbrook has been able to hold 100’s of thousands of litres more water, stopping this water running into the Roding, & thereby *reducing* local flood risk. The first photograph below is of the Aldersbrook after the rains this morning- a big contrast to the area before we did the work.
Perhaps more importantly, this water, instead of running straight off into the Roding & hence the sea is now being held in the Aldersbrook & gradually released so it can be used by nature. It is feeding marshes, trees & wildlife, topping up groundwater & helping to reduce our flood/drought cycle. If you want to strengthen water resilience, we need thousands more projects like the Aldersbrook around the country.
So the question I ask you, Environment Agency, is why you are threatening me with two years imprisonment, rather than offering to meet & discuss how we can work together to restore the Roding & its tributaries, which could become a blueprint for you cooperating with local river guardians nationwide?
Rats jumping ship already.
Pathetic. David Lammy is fawning and gushing over the very man who just ousted his close friend and boss from Downing Street. No loyalty whatsoever. These Labour careerists only ever look after themselves first.
Lammy:
“I’ve known Andy Burnham for over 25 years… We were both protégés of the late Tessa Jowell… I supported him for one of his previous bids to become leader… He has my full support.”
Desperately reminiscing about the old days and loudly reminding everyone he backed Burnham before.
🤮 Utterly shameless. The whole lot of them.
The disgusting speed of their pivot to the new power in town shows exactly what “principles” these people actually have.
Disgraceful.
ANDY BURNHAM: FRAUDSTER?
Mr Burnham didn’t Leave Manchester.
Mr Burnham FLED Manchester
There are Two Very Suspicious Arrangements Burnham is Involved in:
1/ His Dealings with his friend, the Manchester Property Developer, Daren Whitaker, who received nearly £800 Million from Greater Manchester while Burnham headed the Finance Committee.
Whitaker refused to Build the Affordable Housing agreed in the Contract, building Skyscrapers and Luxury Apartments.
Whitaker took £40 Million in Personal Dividends and Decamped to the Tax Haven Monaco.
This would be Illegal.
Unless the Chairman of the Finance Committee agreed to the Dividend.
Mr Burnham had to agree.
But now refuses to discuss the matter.
OR RELEASE THE OFFICIAL MINUTES.
Is Andy Burnham Corrupt??
He is about to become the PRIME MINISTER OF GREAT BRITAIN.
I Think It’s Time We Find Out Before The Coronation.
2/ Burnham’s dealings with his Wife.
Although She Never Took His Name.
Confused? Me Too…
“Marie-France van Heel, she is a director of Be.EV & Iduna Infrastructure, she is also Chief Marketing and Customer Officer for Octopus Energy.
In these rolls she secured a contract to supply EV infrastructure and energy to Greater Manchester Combined Authority, the famous “Bus” project the now ex mayor of Manchester boasts about. The only matter Andy B fails to boast about is the lady who got the contracts is, in fact.
MR BURNHAM’S WIFE…
For the UK Media now kissing Burnham’s Ring and the Labour Party members hoping to get the Cabinet positions they crave:
BURNHAM IS A SAINT
BUT THE REALITY SEEMS VERY, VERY DIFFERENT
Perhaps @KemiBadenoch and @RupertLowe10 Should Take a Look.
TODAY…
Team Burnham pressed Keir Starmer to stay on over the summer to give their man time to prepare for power. Starmer rebuffed them in no uncertain manner: you’re forcing me out because you think I’m useless. So why should I wait til September at your convenience?
As I said on @TimesRadio yesterday, this is not an amicable handover.
Starmer was very badly prepared for power in July 2024. Burnham is considerably less well-prepared.

@UKLabour #Starmergeddon
Jeremy Clarkson’s Farm show on Amazon is the most radicalizing piece of mainstream media I’ve ever seen
Just one example (bear with me):
Badgers became a protected species in Britain 40+ years ago.
The population has exploded and now frequently transmits tuberculosis to cows
But farmers can’t cull the badger population to protect their cattle because the government still considers them to be endangered
Instead of addressing the root cause, the UK has the most batshit testing regime for cattle
There’s no TB vaccine. So the cattle have to get tested. The vets administering the test have to measure welts on the cows neck. Whether a cow lives or dies comes down to a vet trying to discern 1mm on a caliper (reactive vs non reactive).
If a cow tests positive, the farm (already running on super thin margins) is quarantined and starts hemorrhaging money.
Jeremy Clarkson’s cow (pregnant with twins) has an inconclusive test so it’s separated from the herd. It receives a second inconclusive test so they have to kill it (before it can give birth to the twins).
Now here’s the kicker: the autopsy reveals no sign of TB. It was a healthy cow needlessly killed
So - silver lining the farm should be removed from quarantine, right? WRONG - it’s still under quarantine and has to keep testing and can’t sell its beef
Kafkaesque doesn’t even begin to describe how f’d up it is for British farmers
