Dear @RoryStewartUK
Listen to the horrific detail and ordeals Sammy Woodhouse experienced from the age of 14 due to Pakistani grooming gangs.
Does this trauma still sound like a mere "culture war"? You are a tone deaf imbecile.
It was never a ‘stretch target.’ The manifesto promise came with no caveats. It only became a ‘stretch’ when it was clear they’d never hit it — not by a long chalk. Would be more honest just to admit that. But that’s not how politicians work. They think we can’t see their dissembling.
So let me do their work for them: there is no chance — no chance — Labour will build 1.5m new homes in England between 2024 and 2029. End of.
Ignore the media hysteria.
The money that has poured into Labour and the Conservatives far outstrips anything raised by Reform since its creation in 2021.

Poor old BBC, Ch 4 & Sky
For all their lies, their made up stories, their libels, their lawbreaking
They chose to wage war against Reform
Reform will win this war

The Proclaimers are back with a provocative new album, You May Offend, inspired by their anger at the SNP, Western warmongering and the erosion of free speech.
Speaking to The Telegraph, brothers Craig and Charlie Reid branded the trans lobby ‘truth-phobic’.
Addressing the treatment of women who state biological facts, Craig said: “There’s women, actual women, who are threatened with violence – sometimes get violence – and de-platformed because they have the temerity to say that a woman is an adult human female.
“And they are shouted down by 0.5 per cent in a population who are male and who think that because they put on a dress, and they put on make-up, that that makes them a female.
“People have lost their careers over that. [Graham] Linehan was the obvious one. None of his pals stood up for him. I wouldn’t agree with everything Linehan says any more than I would do with JK Rowling.
“But you’ve got the right to stand up for science and logic. And in his case, it’s a tragedy. He lost his career for telling the truth.”
Explaining why he wrote You May Offend, Craig said: “We’re getting to the stage now where people are getting scared to say what they think because people are being cancelled. Because people have been prosecuted or threatened by prosecution.”
He added that he sympathised with the police, directing his criticism instead towards politicians and vague laws and policing guidance.
“They’re doing that because they’re directed by politicians. They’re scared of seeming transphobic. They’re dancing to the tune, often, of self-interested interest groups.”

I very rarely ask for anything. And I never ask for anything for myself. I have always trusted that those who believe in the gruelling work my team and I are doing @TMOFCharity at The Maggie Oliver Foundation helping victims and survivors of sexual abuse will donate to help us grow and evolve if they are able.
However, this is very different! I’ve never done this before but I am asking if there is anyone out there who can help this very brave and eleoquent survivor @fionagoddarduk.
Fiona has had to move from her home for safety reasons following the abhorrent release of her vile rapists under this abomination that is the early release of predatory paedophiles, murderers and child rapists. She has been threatened and lives in real fear of repercussions, and her young children are inevitably hugely affected by this too.
She has 5 young children all under the age of 12, and in just 3 weeks since fleeing her house in fear they have already been moved 3 times through totally unsuitable temporary accommodations as the authorities say they can’t find her and her children a permanent place to settle.
Can anyone help? Her young children deserve a safe and secure home, some stability, to settle in new schools and have some semblance of normality in a life that has been constantly rocked by the experiences their mum has endured, and yet she still fights on to expose the horrors of our broken systems.
This could be an opportunity to break the cycle, but as everyone knows our public services are on their knees and houses IMO are going to the wrong people, and when there’s a real need of help, this just isn’t forthcoming!
We are trying our best to find her somewhere, but the more hands there are to the pump the better chance there is of succeeding.
Fiona is willing to consider a move anywhere. Council house, private rental, anywhere in the Uk . For all those who may be in a position to help, feel free to contact either me in a DM or Fiona on X too.
Fingers and toes all crossed that someone can help, and that this little family who have suffered so much can finally look ahead to a brighter future after a lifetime of trauma and being failed.
Thankyou 🙏
Here's the full facts Stella.
Review of party funding January 2021 (creation of Reform) – September 2026
• The Conservatives have raised £150 million
• Labour have raised £128 million
• Reform have raised £38 million

Before the latest donations of £36 million.
So you're right. We have a long way to go to catch you and the Tories up and level the playing field.
As a former police sergeant who policed football matches in Bristol, I know the basic principles of public-order policing.
When you have opposing groups with the potential for confrontation, you keep them apart.
That’s basic tactical policing: separation, controlled movement and preventing confrontation before it happens.
So allowing opposing factions at an immigration protest to meet head-on seems completely at odds with those principles and police tactics.

This needs to be scrutinised immediately.
This is not normal. He’s the head of MI5, warning us about an even greater threat of Islamic terror than we imagined - whilst working under a govt that panders at every opportunity to radical Islam.
The pressure being placed on our security services to keep track of 10s, more likely 100s of thousands of radical Islamists is terrifying. They cannot possibly do it - at least not reliably and for the long term.
Will the govt pay any attention to this warning?
Or will we continue to see tens of thousands of young men imported from areas implacably hostile to the west, many of them radical Islamists? Will the govt reconsider its proposed new measures that will prohibit critique of the ideology that gave rise to 9/11?
We know the answer
First the humiliating u-turn on her awful plans for Local Government Reorganisation plans earlier this week.
Now she is forced to admit that her flagship promise of building 1.5 million homes was always a big fat lie.
Is there anything she says that we can actually take seriously?!?
I’ve seen London’s migrant camps first-hand.
When I speak to the people living there, I hear the same thing: “I’m waiting for a council house.”
Meanwhile, people who’ve paid into the system their whole lives are pushed to the back of the queue.
Only Reform will end this injustice.
This is insane.
Remember Burnham telling you the criminals he's releasing early will be watched by 'electronic tags'?
He promised probation officers would have ‘constant access’ to offenders’ movements.
But get this:
Watchdogs say that the system actually relies on Serco, the tagging contractor, manually forwarding alerts to probation officers by email.
Manually.
So officers will only be able to receive these alerts during office hours, 9am to 5pm, occasionally 7pm on certain days with appointment.
So if a stalker or domestic abuser breached his exclusion zone at 9pm?
On this account, the alert wouldn’t come through until the next morning.
Do you feel ‘reassured’?
And even if the tags were real-time, do you really think they’re going to stop people reoffending?
When more prisoners are being recalled than released for the first time ever?
There's only one way out of this mess.
Deportation of all foreign nationals in our jails and rapid prison construction.
So we can keep violent criminals in jail.
That is what a Reform government will deliver.
Of all Burnham's cockups due to his inability to say 'No' to anyone - this is the worst, by far. Last week he said yes to a united Ireland and yes to Scottish independence. This is the result. The US President doesn't care if the UK loses Northern Ireland (and the Falklands) - and the PM of the UK doesn't either. https://t.co/o7nb31YuTP

Ben Delo donating £36m to Reform UK = Not ok. 🥴
