Our Prime Minister Keir Starmer reassured the World that we have freedom of speech in the UK. Starmer has committed treason.
Stephen Flynn accepted a Cabinet job, pocketed the ministerial salary, and is now disappearing to the World Cup while Parliament is sitting.
If the job comes second to football, he should resign and let someone else do it.

When a government starts dominating the very committees meant to hold it to account, alarm bells should ring.
The SNP doesn't want scrutiny. It wants control.
I'm incredibly offended at what this Labour MP has just said about me in Parliament.
He states that I would sack every DEI officer in the NHS.
Total nonsense. Let's be accurate - I would sack every single DEI officer across the entire public sector.
It can't come soon enough!
@AmericaRecharge Yes, absolutely!
@Anne_Lancs Good morning, Anne. 😊☕️
Peter Murrell has admitted stealing over £400,000 from the SNP.
Shirley-Anne Somerville was his deputy throughout part of that period and claims she noticed nothing.
Either she knew and stayed quiet, or she didn't know and wasn't doing her job.
Which was it?
@bobmca1 Good morning, Bob. 😊☕️
This is the best analogy yet with a solution for the mess that the UK is now in economically.
I bought a bird feeder. I hung it in my back garden and filled it with seed.
Within a week we had lots of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.
But then the birds started… Building nests in the shed, in the eaves,in the fences and in my garden bushes.
Then came the shit. It was everywhere,on the patio,on the chairs,the table,windows..everywhere!
Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket.
And others birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night And demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.
After a while,I couldn't even sit in my own back garden anymore. So I took down the Bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the garden.
Soon,the back yard was like It used to be ..... Quiet,serene.... And no one demanding their rights to a free meal.
Now let's see......
Our government gives out Free food,subsidised housing,free medical care and free education, and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.
Then the illegal’s came by the hundreds of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services,small apartments are housing 5 families,you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor,your child's second grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn't speak English.
Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box,I have to
press one to hear my bank talk to me in English,and people waving flags other than ”ours” are squawking and screaming in the streets,demanding more rights and free liberties.
Just my opinion,but maybe it's time for the government to take down the bird feeder.
@mikeyonman Good morning, Mick. 😊☕️
"Save this post. Every fact in it is sourced to the BBC, Guardian, Telegraph, Sky and Met data. The only thing they never did was put it all in one place. So I did."
The Sadiq Khan Story: How a Bus Driver's Son Became the Most Dangerous Man Ever to Hold Office in London.
This is not a hit piece. This is a record.
Every line is publicly sourced. Every fact has been printed by the BBC, the Guardian, the Telegraph, the Standard, Sky News, LBC, or the Met Police's own data. The only thing missing from the official record is anyone with the spine to put it all in one place.
So here it is. The full picture. Start to finish. Decide for yourselves.
1968. The Arrival.
Amanullah and Sehrun Khan arrive in England from Pakistan. He drives a London bus for 25 years. She sews clothes at home. They raise eight children in a council flat in Tooting. By any honest measure, this is a story Britain should be proud of. The country opened its door, an immigrant family worked hard, and their son rose.
The problem is not where he came from. The problem is what he chose to do with what Britain gave him.
The Lawyer Years. Whose Side Was He On?
Before politics, Sadiq Khan was a human rights lawyer. And the human rights he chose to fight for tell you everything.
2001. Khan personally represents the Nation of Islam in the High Court and successfully overturns the UK's 15 year ban on Louis Farrakhan, one of the most notorious antisemites alive on the planet. A man who calls Jews "termites." Khan got him the legal right to walk back into Britain. Source: Wikipedia, Guardian, Standard.
2001 to 2006. Khan's law firm consults on the defence of Zacarias Moussaoui, the only person ever convicted in a US court of direct involvement in the 9/11 attacks. Source: Full Fact, Guardian.
2005 to 2006. Khan personally visits Babar Ahmad, a terror suspect, in Woodhill Prison. Ahmad's own father was an extremist Khan would later share a platform with in Parliament itself in 2012. Source: Evening Standard.
Post 7/7. Khan signs an open letter blaming the London bombings, the murder of 52 innocent Britons on their way to work, on British government policy. Not on the bombers. On us. Source: Middle East Forum, ConservativeHome.
2004 to 2013. Khan shares a platform NINE times with Suliman Gani, a Tooting imam who has called women "subservient" to men, condemned gay people, and called for the establishment of an Islamic state. Source: BBC, Guardian, Evening Standard.
That is not a defence lawyer doing his job. That is a pattern. That is a worldview.
The Mayoralty. The Wrecking Ball.
Since taking office in May 2016, here is what London has actually looked like under Sadiq Khan. Not opinion. Numbers.
Knife crime, up 72%. From 9,100 offences in the year to June 2016 to 15,639 in the year to June 2025. The 2024/25 figure of 16,147 is the highest of any year of his mayoralty. Source: Daily Mail, Evening Standard, Met Police data.
Khan was officially rebuked by the Office for Statistics Regulation for falsely claiming knife crime was falling. The state's own statistics watchdog had to publicly correct the Mayor of London. Source: Evening Standard.
Robbery up 59%. Residential burglary up 37%. Source: GLA Conservatives, Met Police data.
A record 30 teenage homicides in 2021. Thirty children, in one city, in one year. Source: Evening Standard.
Two tier policing, on the record. A damning think tank report called for Khan to be stripped of policing control, finding officers "failing to arrest those committing criminal damage or shouting 'jihad' at pro Palestinian rallies." His reduction of stop and search has had, in the report's own words, "a catastrophic impact on the fight against crime." Source: LBC.
This is the man lecturing you about safety.
ULEZ. The Greatest Highway Robbery in British History.
The Ultra Low Emission Zone was sold as a clean air policy. The data says otherwise.
£500 million plus extracted from London drivers since the 2023 expansion alone. Source: Daily Mail FOI data.
2.4 million penalties issued. One every 15 seconds. Source: Daily Mail FOI data.
£9 million of public money spent on a propaganda blitz to sell Londoners a policy they did not want. Source: Daily Mail, City Hall Conservatives.
Independent impact assessment: ULEZ expansion had a "negligible effect on air quality." Source: Sky News.
Sky News investigation: Khan's office accused of an "alarmingly cosy relationship" with scientific advisors, conspiring to silence research that contradicted his agenda. Source: Sky News.
He bankrupted small businesses. He taxed pensioners off the road. He told you it was for the children's lungs. The science says it did nothing. The receipts say it raised half a billion pounds. You do the maths.
TfL. Effectively Bankrupt.
£11 to £12 billion in debt. Paying £400 million a year just in debt interest. Bailed out by central government seven times. Described in the House of Commons as "effectively bankrupt." Source: BBC, Telegraph, Guardian.
This is the same man who increased the GLA council tax precept by 71% since 2016, from around £276 to over £510 for the average Band D household. Source: Full Fact, Evening Standard, BBC.
You pay more. The trains break down more. The buses are more dangerous. The Met is stretched thinner. Where did the money go?
The Cultural War on London Itself.
In June 2020, days after the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, USA, Khan set up the Commission for Diversity in the Public Realm. A £250,000 taxpayer funded panel to review which British statues, street names and memorials should remain standing. Source: Daily Mail, Express, Telegraph.
The commission's first scandal was its own commissioner. Toyin Agbetu was forced to resign after antisemitic and inflammatory social media posts were exposed. The man Khan picked to judge which British heroes deserved to stand had a record so toxic he had to be quietly dropped. Source: Telegraph, CUFI.
This is the man deciding which parts of British history are allowed to remain visible in the British capital.
The Grooming Gang Cover Up. London Edition.
In February 2026, the Express revealed that Sadiq Khan was not only denying the existence of grooming gangs in London but actively dismissing first hand evidence from whistleblowers as "malicious" and "politically motivated."
In May 2026, a survivor of grooming, a woman who was repeatedly trafficked directly into the capital, publicly accused Khan of "living under a rock" and wilfully turning a blind eye to a grooming gang epidemic in his city. Source: Express, May 2026.
This is not a historical scandal he inherited. This is happening now. To children. In his city. And he is doing the same thing every authority did in Rotherham, Rochdale, Telford, Oldham and Bradford for twenty years. He is calling the people who tell the truth liars, and he is calling the victims politically inconvenient.
History will hang this around his neck. And it should.
The Met, Hobbled. The Palantir Block.
May 2026. Khan personally blocks a £50 million contract between the Metropolitan Police and Palantir, an AI firm that had helped the force investigate corrupt officers including Wayne Couzens and David Carrick. Source: BBC, Guardian, GB News.
Palantir's UK boss publicly accused Khan of "putting politics above public safety." A senior figure stated that the Mayor was "making the Metropolitan Police fight criminals with their hands tied behind their backs." Source: BBC, GB News.
The same man who has presided over record knife crime, record phone theft and the collapse of stop and search just stripped the Met of the very tool that catches their own corrupt officers. Ask yourself why.
And Now, the Flag.
This is the part most Londoners have not yet fully clocked. Pay attention.
New Year's Eve 2025 into 2026. Sadiq Khan turns the London Eye into the flag of the European Union. During Britain's own New Year fireworks. In the capital of the United Kingdom. The Union Jack? Reduced to a guest appearance. Source: Telegraph, GB News.
GB News commentator Tom Harwood named it for what it was: "A foreign flag before our own."
In response, Khan publicly "joked about declaring independence for London" and openly briefed about Britain rejoining the EU. Source: GB News, Evening Standard.
He has used the phrase "take back control", the slogan of the Brexit campaign he despises, to demand more devolved power for himself in City Hall. Source: https://t.co/6ysxZQxULh official record.
Read this carefully and read it twice. The Mayor of London has flown a foreign flag over the river Thames on New Year's Eve, publicly mused about declaring his city independent from the United Kingdom, and is now reportedly about to be elevated to a peerage and dragged into Starmer's cabinet after the 2026 local elections. Source: Wikipedia, March 2026 reporting.
This is not a politician. This is a project. London is the prize. And the prize is being prepared for someone other than the British people.
The Pattern. Now Look At It Whole.
Step back. Look at the line.
A lawyer who freed Farrakhan, defended terror cases, visited terror suspects in prison, signed letters blaming 7/7 on Britain, and shared platforms nine times with a radical imam.
A mayor who oversaw a 72% rise in knife crime, was officially rebuked for lying about it, and presided over a record 30 teenage murders in a single year.
A tax collector who extracted half a billion pounds from drivers under a scheme his own assessors said does nothing for air quality.
A debtor who broke TfL and made you pay for it through a 71% precept hike.
A culture warrior who pointed a commission at British statues and put an antisemite on it.
A denialist who calls grooming gang victims liars in 2026, the same year Britain finally began saying their names.
A saboteur of policing who blocked the AI contract that catches dirty cops.
A flag flier who lit the London Eye in the colours of a foreign union and floated independence for his own city.
This is not incompetence. Incompetence does not move in one direction for 25 years.
This is a worldview, executed with patience, protected by the press, and rewarded with a knighthood and, if Starmer gets his way, a seat in the Lords.
Final Word.
London is the greatest city in the world. It was that long before Sadiq Khan walked into City Hall. It will be that long after he is dragged out of it.
He inherited a capital that was the envy of Europe. He will leave behind a city more violent, more taxed, more divided, more hostile to its own history and more detached from the country that built it than at any point in living memory.
There is one question that matters now. It is the question every Londoner, every Englishman, every Briton needs to put to themselves before the next ballot is cast.
Whose city is this?
Because it is not theirs.
It never was.
And it never will be.

THE DOSSIER #11: David Lammy MP – The Contemptible
Born 1967. Tottenham. Guyanese parents. Father abandoned the family. Single mother. You have worn her struggles like a costume for thirty years. The scholarship. Harvard Law School. The most elite legal education on earth. You are not the voice of Tottenham. You are the voice of Cambridge, Massachusetts. The international elite's manufactured authentic. The working-class hero who needed three attempts to pass the Bar. Three attempts on a donor-funded scholarship. Then straight into politics. Not one day in private practice. Not one day meeting a payroll. Not one day outside the taxpayer-funded bubble.
Fabian Society. The Foreign Policy Centre. Labour Friends of Israel. Labour Friends of Palestine. You join everything. You stand for nothing. You believe in nothing except your own advancement.
Researcher for Harriet Harman. MP for Tottenham since 2001. Minister for Culture. Higher Education. Lord Commissioner of the Treasury. Now Deputy Prime Minister. You climbed to the second highest office in the land without ever leaving the building. Without ever building anything. Without ever creating anything. Without ever suffering the consequences of your own decisions.
You called Brexiteers Nazis. You compared them to the Ku Klux Klan. You said they were allied with fascism and white supremacy. You called the 2016 vote "the worst thing since the Second World War." Seventeen million voters. Seventeen million of your own countrymen. Nazis. That is what you called them. That is what you think of the British people. That is your contempt laid bare.
Then you begged for their votes. Then you begged for a trade deal with the America you called racist. Then you went silent when power required it. You have no principles. You have only appetites.
You called Donald Trump a racist. A Nazi sympathizer. A member of the KKK. You demanded he be banned from Britain. You said he was unfit for office. Now you are Deputy Prime Minister. Now you need him. Now you are silent. How wonderfully flexible your principles are. How terribly convenient. How utterly predictable.
You demanded Parliament be recalled in 2019 to stop Brexit. You said prorogation was a constitutional outrage. You wept for parliamentary sovereignty. Then you voted to revoke Article 50 without a referendum. You voted against the democratic result. Fifty-eight percent of your own constituents voted Leave. You voted to ignore them. You called it principle. They call it betrayal. They call it treachery. They are correct.
You voted to scrap winter fuel payments for nine million pensioners. You took £300 from the poorest elderly households while you spent £1 million on private flights in three months. £14,000 per day. Your Foreign Office blew £521,000 on restaurants and bars in four months. The venues were hidden. The receipts were buried. The entitlement is total. The hypocrisy is infinite.
You claimed £7,000 in accountancy fees on expenses. Ten times. To help with your tax returns. While you underpaid £2,500 in council tax on your £1.6 million London home. "An oversight," you claimed. The oversight of the man who lectures others about paying their fair share. The oversight of the reparations advocate who cannot pay his own bills. The oversight of the Nazi-caller who cannot follow basic tax law.
You demanded reparations for the slave trade. You demanded Britain pay up. While you sat in the £3 million official residence at Chevening. While you flew business class to Washington. While you dined at the British Embassy. While you collected your £89,000 ministerial salary on top of your £91,000 MP salary. While your wife sat on the board of the Victoria and Albert Museum. Another quango. Another appointment. Another connection. The reparations advocate with the £180,000 household income. The guilt-monger with the expense account. The shame-peddler with the grace-and-favour residence.
You took £35,000 from a property developer. You took hospitality from Qatar. You took flights from Saudi Arabia. You took dinners from anyone who would pay. Then you lectured others about ethics. Then you demanded transparency. The standards never applied to you. The rules were for the little people. The Nazis. The ones you despise.
You called the 2011 Tottenham rioters victims of social injustice. While Tottenham burned. While shops were looted. While your constituents lost everything. You made excuses. You blamed cuts. You blamed the police. You blamed everyone except the people holding the petrol bombs. You are not a leader. You are an apologist for violence. You are not a representative. You are an excuser of destruction.
You are the Shadow Foreign Secretary who did not know what NATO Article 5 was. You are the Deputy Prime Minister who confused India with Pakistan in your first week as Foreign Secretary. You are the barrister who cannot grasp basic geography. You are the Harvard Law graduate who needed three attempts to pass the Bar. Three attempts. While you lecture others about competence. While you call them Nazis. While you burn £1 million on private jets.
Open borders. Flooded cities. British daughters paying the price for your virtue-signaling. Working-class communities destroyed by your policies. Working-class voters demonized by your tongue. You have spit on the people who gave your family refuge. You have sold the country that made you Deputy Prime Minister. You have given away our money while calling us Nazis.
You are not a statesman. You are a shock jock in a suit. You are not a diplomat. You are a liability. You are not the future of Britain. You are its embarrassment at the highest level. You are its shame made flesh.
Your Harvard degree is worthless. Your Fabian membership is a joke. Your thirty years in Parliament have produced nothing but division and disgust. Your constituents deserve better than a man who calls them Nazis. Your country deserves better than a Deputy Prime Minister who despises his own people.
You will never be Prime Minister. You will never be respected. You will never recover from the mouth that destroyed you. The mouth that called seventeen million voters Nazis. The mouth that costs £14,000 per day in private jets. The mouth that demands reparations while dodging council tax.
You are a fraud. You are a hypocrite. You are a disgrace.
Your career is over. Your credibility is gone. Your Deputy Premiership is a corpse that has not yet fallen. When it falls, no one will mourn. No one will remember you fondly. You will be remembered only for the contempt you showed the British people. Only for the Nazi slurs. Only for the waste. Only for the betrayal.
You are not fit to clean the shoes of the people you call Nazis.
Your betrayal of Britain is now complete. Permanent exile awaits. Congratulations. You are The Dossier.
.@MatthewStadlen, nobody serious condones the burning of homes or violence against innocent people. That has been said clearly and repeatedly. Peaceful mass non-compliance, sustained public anger expressed through votes, through civic pressure, through the kind of informed public argument that refuses to be silenced, would be far more effective and far more legitimate than disorder. That is the argument worth making.
What you deliberately fail to address is why we are here. This didn't happen because of social media. If anything social media has given a voice to millions who were ignored, dismissed and labelled by the very people supposed to be representing them. For thirty years the political and media class controlled the terms of the debate. They decided what could be said, who could say it and what label would be applied to anyone who said the wrong thing. Social media broke that monopoly. The anger you are now describing as dangerous was always there. It was simply not permitted a platform until now.
Britain was forged over a millennium. Out of invasion and resistance, reformation and revolution, industrial genius and imperial reach, two world wars and the stubborn refusal to be broken. The people who built that country, who dug its coal, staffed its factories, fought its wars and buried its dead, were never consulted about the transformation of their communities at a speed and scale that their own government now admits was too much, too quickly. When they objected they were called racist. When they persisted they were called far right. When they voted for parties that reflected their concern those parties were dismissed as extremist.
The working class communities now erupting with anger are not doing so because of a website. They are doing so because their concerns were ignored for thirty years by people like you, who had the platforms, the education and the proximity to power to raise these questions honestly and chose instead to brand those raising them as bigots.
The road to perdition was not paved by the people of Belfast. It was paved by the political and media class that substituted mass migration for economic reform, celebrated the transformation as diversity, prosecuted those who questioned it as racists, and is now, as the consequences arrive, reaching for the same tired accusation one more time.
You are not describing a backward ideology. You are describing the consequence of your own class's choices. The difference is that the people in those streets have to live with those consequences. You do not.
Farage throwing around more outright lies about Restore Britain on national television just now - I am entirely uninterested in sliding into the filth through responding.
He is attempting to deflect from the fact that two of his senior MPs allowed a brutal third world Sudanese savage into our country.
A man was almost beheaded. Neck slashed apart. Eye gouged out. In the middle of the street. He was saved from having his head sawn off by brave bystanders.
He was welcomed into our country, handed a visa.
By who? Who made the call?
Reform's Robert Jenrick as immigration minister, and Reform's Suella Braverman as Home Secretary.
We have unvetted, unchecked third world barbarian in towns ALL over Britain because of what those two Reform politicians inflicted on our people.
Rapes, sexual assaults, murders - a direct result of their failure to secure our borders as the responsible ministers.
I will not forget it, and I will certainly not forgive.
Jenrick and Braverman have blood on their hands.
That is what Farage does not want you to talk about.
@TaMaraPhoto3 Good morning, Mara. 😊☕️
@EvelynMay51 Good morning 😊☕️
@eyed_loon Good morning, Loon. 😊☕️
Terrifying
The House of Commons Justice Committee has delivered its verdict on the Government’s plans to slash our ancient right to trial by jury.
It is scathing — and will make tough reading for the Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Secretary, @DavidLammy.
The Government has introduced the most sweeping constitutional reforms to the criminal justice system in years at breakneck speed, despite not having promised them in its manifesto. It seems to be allergic to scrutiny.
The Justice Secretary claims that curbing our precious right to jury trial will save Crown Court time and reduce the backlog of cases. Yet the Committee acknowledges that there is no concrete evidential basis for this claim. In fact, the Institute for Government has said the reforms would save only 2 per cent of court time, not the 20 per cent ministers have promised.
David Lammy’s 2017 review found that juries are one of the few parts of the criminal justice system where black and minority ethnic defendants do not face disproportionate outcomes. This Bill reduces the role of juries while simultaneously expanding that of the judiciary, despite only 1 per cent of Crown Court judges being black.
Back in December 2025, Lammy himself said the reforms would not be applied retrospectively. That is no longer the case. Defendants expecting a jury trial could now have their mode of trial changed without a hearing.
The Free Speech Union’s research has shown that those accused of speech-related offences are almost twice as likely to be found not guilty in the Crown Court before a jury than in a magistrates’ court without one.
Judges, lawyers, opposition MPs, Labour MPs, and even victims of crime have warned that David Lammy’s reforms will undermine public confidence in the criminal justice system.
We must defend our right to trial by jury.
