Baroness Foster of Oxton exposed how British taxpayers are being forced to fund the jihadists in the Middle East.
£101 million given to the Palestinians, at the expense of British taxpayers.

The British government knows the Palestinian Authority uses the money to pay terrorists and family members of suicide bombers as part of the infamous “Pay for Slay” policy.

They do not condition the aid on stopping terrorism because Keir Starmer cannot afford to be called “Islamophobic” by his Muslim voters or the Palestinian leaders. He appeases the jihadists by promoting terror against Jews.
This is not foreign aid. This is British taxpayers subsidizing the murder of Jews.

The Palestinian Authority has a formal system that rewards terrorists with monthly salaries — the more Jews they kill, the higher the payment. Suicide bombers’ families receive lifetime pensions. This is blood money, and Britain is helping to pay it.

The call for public ownership of the water industry is growing louder everyday.

Why are govt refusing a referendum, why are govt refusing to allow the public to decide?

Birmingham City Council has admitted there was illegal "family voting" in the council elections. Whole families entered polling booths to vote. When challenged, the officials were abused.

But when @Nigel_Farage pointed this out, he was howled down.

🎉🎈 Many happy returns to Edward “Eddie” Shipley, who has celebrated his 102nd birthday this week.

Eddie volunteered for the Royal Navy at just 18 years old and went on to serve in the Atlantic, the Arctic Convoys and the D-Day landings. His remarkable service continued in the Far East before he returned home and built a life with his family.

More than eight decades later, his contribution has been recognised with honours including Russia’s Ushakov Medal and France’s Legion d'Honneur.

Stories like Eddie’s remind us of the dedication, resilience and service of those who have served our country, and why it remains so important to support veterans and their communities today.

Please join us in wishing Eddie a very happy 102nd birthday. 🎉

🚨 STOP BLAMING THE PEOPLE

Reverend Chris Wickland has a message for Britain's politicians:

"Stop being so blind that you can't see it's your policies that created this crisis."

While politicians continue talking about "far-right violence", growing numbers of people are asking a different question:

Why are the concerns that sparked the anger still being ignored?

The public is demanding answers.

Westminster is still demanding silence.

And the gap between the two is getting wider.

Lucy Connolly was arrested and imprisoned for a similar post recently.

Why does this Muslim get away with it?

[Katie Lam @Katie_Lam_MP]

Keir Starmer and his Attorney General are still trying to open up prosecutions against Northern Ireland veterans.

Is it any surprise that they're not taking our country's security seriously, when this is how they treat people who've risked their lives to keep us safe?
