The view from Malton

Proud North Yorkshireman. “Far right”, according to the far left, so probably in the centre. The climate does what it does without our help. Wokery is comedy.

@sec_sci_teacher Yes. Why not?

… making independent schools even more elite.

Good work, you daft woman. You were told this would happen.

[Stephen Phillips 💻 @uk_sf_writer]

Thanks to the economically illiterate @RachelReevesMP, there are now 30,000 MORE pupils - some of them with special educational needs - in state schools.

The wealthy can still afford private education: aspirational, hardworking family can't.

With the demise of the IPCC's extreme RCP8.5 climate scenario, any remaining reason to pursue Net Zero has vanished – and even Tony Blair has started to notice, says meteorologist Andrew Sibley. https://t.co/xh1CXKYT7z

@HeatherJeeves Parallel universe.

And when Labour sent a delegation to help the Democrats in the last election - that was ok, was it?

[Bernie @Artemisfornow]

Er hold on a minute …When Barack Obama flew to the UK to tell us we would be at the back of the queue days before the Brexit referendum, the political establishment thought that was great!

When Elon Musk comments on British politics, Starmer says he must stay out of our democracy.

So foreign intervention is fine when it supports your position, but unacceptable when it doesn't?

Interesting principle.

@AnthonyGlees I’m amazed that a “professor of politics” can’t actually understand why we voted Leave, and how and why the negotiations were deliberately subverted.

And thinks rejoining would be politically or economically beneficial. Or possible.

And is obsessed with this issue.

@EULondonMark And …?

They all drive on the wrong side of the road, too. Should we change?

Start with English grammar?

Differently from.

@MarchForRejoin @GlasgowEurope @Heccles94 @RejoinP @LizWebsterSBF Terms will include the € and QMV.

And you would restrict who could stand for parliament? Well I guess that’s typically democratic - for the EU.

What’s “EU project time”?

Labour have 2 years max, and then your window closes. If it’s even open now.

[The view from Malton @MaltonView]

@sec_sci_teacher And you’re presumably ok that it’s now even more elite?

So if we can’t all afford it, none of us should have it?

[Cut My Tax @CutMyTaxUK]

The new Danish government is cutting the corporation tax rate from 22% to 19% over three years, and eliminating income tax bands for the highest earners.

“It is crucial that Denmark remains competitive,” Prime Minister Frederiksen said.

It's sad that the British government does not have a similar attitude.

“What you have to understand,” a senior police officer told me, “is most chief constables would rather mess up a major murder inquiry than be accused of being racist.”

That is what we are up against, folks.

Strange world!

@RabbiRomain Their rule book tells them to do that. So, they do, and the prejudice is built-in.

[The view from Malton @MaltonView]

Definitely.

MILLIONS OF MUSLIMS

Would you vote to ban Muslim CITIZENSHIP in the 🇬🇧🇺🇲 permanently?

1. Yes
2. No
3. Unsure

Here is:

The domestic terrorist Rashida Tlaib, calling on Hamas supporters to mobilize and take down the United States government, right here on U.S. soil.

“We’re in every corner of the United States.”

[The view from Malton @MaltonView]

@andrewhesselden Nor does it mean that you have to keep banging on about the referendum or rejoining.

[Andy on X 🎸✈️🇬🇧 @andyw8924]

If you're angry about an 18 year old lad being handcuffed whilst he was dying, a soldier being beheaded in the street, little girls being stabbed at a dance class, kids being blown up at an Ariana Grande concert, etc etc, then you are a far right hooligan. And so am I 😡

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

Unlikely he will admit that the anger was caused by his cabinet's appalling incompetence, and the two-tier policing they imposed

Nothing good will happen till he's gone
