Stop blaming the triple lock.
Millions of working age people are not in jobs, training or education at a cost of unsustainable billions.
Let’s start by cutting the welfare bill and leave pensioners alone.

Are you arsing well happy you dismal, moaning French twat!”
In honour of today's British Grand Prix, I am posting one of my favourite sketches from A Bit of Fry & Laurie, which not only stars the terrific two, but was written by them as well.
Stephen Fry was supposed to mime or pull the punch at the end, but he accidentally connected. You can see by his reaction immediately after, as he looks surprised and slightly concerned. Cracking right hook!
T'is lights out, and away they jolly well go!

@Ocado 18.42. one of your vans nearly knocked me over going at excessive speed near a blind corner on a single track rural road where there are horse riders, dog walkers & cyclists. You should tell them to be more considerate & slow down.
Egypte bouwt een ijzersterke muur met prikkeldraad en bufferzones aan de Gaza-grens. Ze weigeren Palestijnse “vluchtelingen” massaal binnen te laten. En ze staan niet alleen.
Jordanië, Libanon, Syrië en de Golfstaten doen exact hetzelfde. Waarom moeten al die Palestijnse vluchtelingen altijd naar Europa of andere niet-moslimlanden?
Omdat Arabische landen het zelf niet meer willen. Ze hebben het al geprobeerd.
In Jordanië pleegden Palestijnse militanten in 1970 bijna een staatsgreep (Black September). Duizenden doden.
In Libanon hielpen ze een bloedige burgeroorlog ontketenen.
In Koeweit werden na 1991 bijna 400.000 Palestijnen keihard verdreven omdat de PLO Saddam steunde.
Nu weigeren diezelfde moslimlanden Gazanen massaal op te nemen. Te riskant. Te veel problemen. Te veel terrorisme en onrust.
Toch eisen ze luidkeels dat Israël en het Westen de grenzen openen. Pure hypocrisie.
57 moslimlanden, oneindig veel olie- en gasgeld — en toch willen ze de eigen “broeders” niet.
Muren liegen niet. Arabische leiders weten precies waarom.
Can't believe I missed this.
How the HELL can the BBC justify spending licence fee payers' money on a helicopter to follow a sodding train that Andy Burnham in on?
This is blatant propaganda.
Outrageous.
INSANE! Lib Dem-led Oxfordshire Council have WON their High Court injunction to BAN people putting flags in the street.
Anyone who puts up flags could face up to 2 YEARS in *prison* or an unlimited fine.
The Britain-hating Lib Dems should be ashamed of themselves. DISGRACEFUL!
Oxfordshire County Council has become the first council to start a legal battle to ban residents from raising flags.
The reason given is that it makes ethnic minorities feel "intimidated."
The LibDems don’t speak for me. Keep Raising the Colours everywhere!
18 June 1815 - Today marks the anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo.
On this day, the British Army under the Duke of Wellington, fighting alongside its allies, defeated Napoleon and brought an end to his ambitions in Europe. Waterloo became one of the greatest victories in British military history. British infantry stood firm under relentless attack throughout the day, enduring artillery bombardment, cavalry charges and repeated assaults before finally driving the French army from the field.
The name Waterloo became synonymous with courage, discipline and determination. It cemented Wellington's place among Britain's greatest commanders and remains one of the defining moments of the British Army's history.
We remember today the soldiers who fought and died on the fields of Waterloo on 18 June 1815. 🇬🇧
In 1957, Golda Meir said: "If the Arabs lay down their arms, there will be no more war. If Israel lays down its arms, there will be no more State of Israel."
This is still true in 2026.
I have to say that Clarkson's Farm is one of the finest pieces of television ever created. I started watching it for Jeremy doing stupid Clarksonesque shit, but then it became something deeper and more important to an entire community of Farmers across the UK, and subsequently to us, those who forgot how important farmers are to our country.
Clarkson himself, never afraid of being made to look like a knob, opened our eyes and his to the warts and all reality of farming. The show laughs and cries at and with him. Crafted drama could never carry the same pathos as watching a Journalist becoming a farmer.
I think I speak for a lot of people when I say this.
For years, Sunday nights meant Top Gear. We’d sit down at 8pm and watch Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May do what they did best.
Now, through Clarkson’s Farm, Jeremy has introduced a whole new generation to the realities of British farming and earned the respect of millions all over again.
He’s made us laugh, he’s frustrated us, and he’s entertained us for decades.
Get well soon, Jezza.
The country is rooting for you. ❤️🇬🇧🙏
“In left-wing circles it is always felt that there is something slightly disgraceful in being an Englishman, and that it is a duty to snigger at every English institution, from horse-racing to suet puddings. It is a strange fact, but it is unquestionably true, that almost any English intellectual would feel more ashamed of standing to attention while ‘God Save the King’ was played than of stealing from the poor-box.”
— George Orwell, The Lion and the Unicorn (1941)
Orwell was pointing out a type of person who sneers at their own country as if that makes them clever. Not because they’ve thought deeply about anything, but because they think mockery itself is a mark of superiority. The tone of it hasn’t changed. The same kind of people are still here. The same smirk. The same false performance of being “above” England.
You see it across media, universities, arts, politics - this little ritual of laughing at everything English: the history, the songs, the traditions, the parades, the accents, the villages, the old ways of doing things. As if scorn is the height of sophistication.
Meanwhile the ordinary Englishman hasn’t changed. He doesn’t make a spectacle of loyalty, but it’s there - in how he speaks about home, in how he looks after his own, in how he stands when something needs to be stood for. It’s quiet, steady, and real.
The divide Orwell talks about is still obvious:
There are those who feel duty and belonging.
And there are those who think they are above both.
The first group doesn’t need to explain itself. 🏴
🚨 WHEN FORMER SPY CHIEFS MI6 START WARNING THE COUNTRY, PEOPLE LISTEN
Sir Richard Dearlove did not mince his words.
Britain, he says, is being governed by a "bunch of students" who fail to grasp the dangers facing the world.
His concern is not party politics.
It is national security.
And when a former head of MI6 openly questions whether the government understands the scale of the threats ahead, that should concern everyone.
Because intelligence chiefs rarely speak this bluntly unless they believe something has gone badly wrong.
@TVKev
What’s living in the UK like? I’ll tell you. In the last week alone we have had to process:
-an attempted beheading by an illegal migrant from Sudan in Belfast
-while still trying to make sense of a boy, Henry Nowak, being stabbed to death while police were more anxious about allegations of “racism” than trying to save his life
-then we learn children in Scotland were assaulted by Bulgarians while the police didn’t believe them either
-while reading that a vulnerable 18-year-old was r*ped by an asylum-seeker from Pakistan
-while an asylum-seeker from Iraq got only 6 years for r*pe
-while an Iraqi national, was found guilty of eight counts of r*pe and grooming children as young as 12
-and his friend from Iran who arrived illegally skipped bail and is on the run
-and now we learn that a teenage girl has been stabbed in the neck by no doubt “a local man” in Burnley.
That’s one week in the UK. Oh, and the Left say talking about all this is “divisive”, they blame social media and Elon Musk, and local councils have told us not to fly our national flag because it might “intimidate” migrants. One week. The UK. 🤡
Keir Starmer has announced that Dublin protesters will be immediately dragged through 24-hour fast-track two-tier courts.
Meanwhile, cases of migrant rape against children receive bail and £200 fines.
This is the system in action.
Patriots who speak out get crushed.
Predators who rape our children get a slap on the wrist.
Starmer’s Britain: justice for the invaders, punishment for the natives.
This ends when he is gone.
