Sorry I don’t follow anyone. Views are my own & very random. Distrust billionaires & charismatic politicians who promise much and deliver nowt. Love 70s music.

@Mick_Spilligan @kelvmackenzie Says it all. I’ve blocked you. If you cannot have a civilised exchange without resorting to personal abuse I feel sorry for you & anyone you come into contact with.

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@Mick_Spilligan @kelvmackenzie Just to confirm my views. I am a staunch supporter of law & order. If you look at my other posts on X I’ve backed tough sentences for ALL rioters.

Allegations of Two Tier Starmer however are nonsense. The Police & Judiciary act completely independent of the Executive.

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@Mick_Spilligan @kelvmackenzie So our police are trained to go soft on certain protesters & not others? Or do you think this an edict issued by the Government ? Evidence? I note that you’re ex RAF did you get these instructions? Our police, judiciary & military ACT WITHOUT FEAR & FAVOUR. I’m proud of them.

@TiceRichard Are UK pensioners really being discriminated against? The full flat rate state pension will go up by 4.5% & hit £231 a week if earnings growth sticks at 4.5% for another month. The Labour Government promised during the recent to maintain the triple lock for the next 5 years.

@elonmusk How about this….. A Muslim man who threw a punch WHILE TRYING TO PROTECT A MOSQUE during disorder in Middlesbrough has been sentenced to 14 months.

Noman Ahmed, 24, who was part of a group of men who went out to confront a white mob, admitted violent disorder.

@GrassrootReform @alexarmstrong Refugee status in itself does not confer the right to vote, no matter how long you’ve been in the UK. 

Usually you’ll need to have been granted citizenship to qualify.

More than 5m people were unable to vote in the GE on 4 July because of their immigration status.

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@Ludders59 @mikemoves12 Asylum seekers are not illegals.

According to the Refugee Council, there is no such thing as an "illegal" person seeking asylum.

The 1951 Refugee Convention to which the UK is a signatory states that people can seek asylum in any country they choose.

Maybe tax the rich more?

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@LISAMSON @mikemoves12 In an ideal world yes. But no Govt has infinite resources & difficult choices must be made following the identification of a £22bn black hole.

Many argue that the payment of UNIVERSAL benefits like WFA cannot be justified in the light of big benefit cuts facing non pensioners

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@Jenny_1884 Hurty words?

Those who’ve been jailed pleaded guilty to:

1. sending communications threatening DEATH or SERIOUS HARM (S181 Online Safety Act 2023)

2. Stirring up RACIAL HATRED (S19(1) of the Public Order Act 1986.

Freedom of speech has never been totally unfettered in UK

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@benonwine Are you serious?

The Resolution Foundation calculates that the mini-budget cost the UK Treasury £30bn.

On top of this mortgages shot up & house prices have fallen. So many home owners have been hit directly in the pocket too.

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@kelvmackenzie How many civil servants serve 40 years plus in the job?

In 2020, the average pension for women in the civil service was £6,251, while the average for men was £11,369.

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@kelvmackenzie They are on hols.

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@kelvmackenzie You clearly don’t understand the law or pulling the wall over your readerships eyes.

Starmer as PM has no role in the legal process. These are matters for the judiciary.

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@kelvmackenzie You don’t understand the law.

The PM has no role in determining this sentence. It’s a matter for the judiciary.

If the Attorney General considers that the sentence might be unduly lenient, the case is passed to the Court of Appeal for review.

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@kelvmackenzie You have no understanding of the law.

Information wasn’t deliberately withheld by the police in relation to suspect charged with the Southport murders.

Merseyside Police initially declined to identify the suspect beyond his age - a legal reqt. for minors suspected of crime

[David Coleman @DavidCo04222089]

@QprEver Labour have been in power for just over a month.

The mess you outline was inherited from the Tories.

And two tier policing is a nonsense. The police and judiciary act entirely independent of the Executive and without fear or favour. Labour appear to have stopped the riots.
