Rachel Reeves is set to be SACKED as Chancellor when Andy Burnham becomes PM.

She deserves to be as hated as much as Keir Starmer for the damage she has caused. All political choices.

The worst Chancellor in my lifetime. Woefully out of her depth.

British MP Priti Patel speaks the truth about Iran’s Islamic terror regime: “No one should have any sympathy for the Iranian terrorist regime. It is a regime soaked in blood — the root cause of so much terror, death and destruction across the Middle East for decades.”

Exactly. The Islamic regime of Iran is the world’s leading sponsor of Islamic terrorism, arming, funding and directing Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis and other jihadist proxies.

It executes its own people, oppresses women, hangs gays, and openly calls for the annihilation of Israel and the West.

Anyone still pushing for “dialogue” or “restraint” with this evil regime is either dangerously naive or actively complicit.

Priti Patel is right. The Iranian regime deserves no sympathy — only total defeat.

.@KemiBadenoch gave a speech this morning on rooting identity politics out of the public sector, and it's difficult to disagree with. Straightforward, concrete, specific - the kind of common sense that rarely goes viral for precisely that reason. No rage-farming, just a proposition worth considering.

I start from the same place Badenoch does. The Equality Act's basic protections are worth keeping. Having lived abroad, like she has, I'm fairly sure Britain's legal and cultural guardrails against discrimination are something that make this society work. They let individuals reach their potential regardless of background. Which is why Reform's apparent appetite for repealing the whole thing strikes me as a bad idea - and why narrowing in on the Public Sector Equality Duty, the bit that effectively compels public bodies to pre-emptively audition their decisions for possible racism, seems exactly right.

This is where the overcorrection happens. The police in the Henry Nowak case initially trusted a false narrative from his killer because of how the duty operates in practice. An 18-year-old dies handcuffed while the system worries about the wrong protected characteristics. If that's not a case study in why the PSED needs gutting, I'm not sure what is.

But there's a second thing from this morning, separate but equally significant. A Spectator journalist asked Badenoch whether her entire party is with her on identity politics. Her response was blunt: anyone who isn't with her isn't a Conservative MP, and won't be with her at the next election. Deselection, in effect, for the dissenters. Clip attached.

I've wondered for a while what happens to the Cameron-era intake - the wets and wokes - by the 2029 election. The party rules, judging from whatever is in the public domain, already point toward no automatic reselection. Badenoch's answer today suggests she's willing to use that. The days of ideological freelancing look numbered, and for a reason. The solutions Britain needs - genuine Thatcherite ones, strong borders, deregulated economy, a smaller state with a much smaller welfare bill - will require a party that isn't pretending to agree while briefing against the leadership. The dismantling of Blairite constitutional scaffolding, the quangos and diluted sovereignty, will be genuinely painful. Doing it needs discipline, not a coalition of people who quietly want the old dispensation to survive.

So, the signal is unmissable. By 2029, the Conservative Party will be authentically conservative, by hook or by crook.

Nicola Sturgeon was no mere politician but a modern archetype of moral vanity triumphant , a false messiah who traded Scotland’s institutions, fairness, and sanity for applause from the right circles and the intoxicating rush of unaccountable power. History will not be kind. Scotland is still paying the price.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ We will continue paying the price till she’s jailed and her accomplices held to account ..

[Aviemore @Fyrishsunset]

The SNP has turned our wee country into a basket-case nation in front of the whole world. Why would anyone, who purports to love Scotland, vote for the likes of that?

[Samantha Smith @SamanthaTaghoy]

Since Andy Burnham wants to be the next Labour leader, here’s a reminder:

Andy accused victims of Pakistani-Muslim grooming gangs of trying to “propagandise” the issue.

He tried to block the grooming gangs inquiry in Manchester and nationally.

He claimed that Pakistani-Muslims grooming gangs are a “thing of the past” despite clear evidence that little girls are still being victimised to this day, including in his local area.

And what does he call the LITTLE GIRLS who were raped under his watch?

Not children.
Not little girls.

“Young women.”

Even on the most basic level, Burnham tried to shift the blame onto victims and refused to acknowledge that they were children.

Countless little girls were raped, exploited and even murdered by Pakistani-Muslim grooming gangs, while powerful men like him turned a blind eye.

Andy Burnham belongs in prison, not Parliament.

And certainly not in 10 Downing Street.

@PatrickChristys The reactions of Starmer, Khan and Mahmood are all contrasted in this piece at News Uncut:

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

These leaked messages prove that even the Prime Minister’s right hand man doesn’t think the Chancellor is capable of growing the economy.

It doesn't matter if it's Starmer or Burnham running the show, the problem is the Labour Party.

Nicola Sturgeon and her crooked husband lived the high life using money stolen from their own people ...

And she knew NOTHING?

Aye right.

Brian Wilson absolutely nails it here.

The SNP stopped being a serious party years ago. It’s now a machine built on grievance, slogans and division because competence would expose how badly they’ve failed Scotland.

[Andrew Neil @afneil]

Usual SNP lies. Scottish taxpayers don’t contribute a penny to HS2. Indeed Scotland gets more public money to spend via the Barnet consequential formula because HS2 is deemed an England-only spending project. Doh!

[Yossi BenYakar @YossiBenYakar]

FLASHBACK:
BBC and CNN are now in full panic after Israeli forces captured and interrogated Islamic Jihad spokesperson Tariq Salami.

According to his interrogation, this is how the media game actually worked:

- When rockets hit Gaza hospitals or schools → blame Israel.
- When Hamas fires from inside those same buildings → Israel gets accused of “war crimes” for striking back.
- Every explosion was pre-agreed to be blamed on Israel, even when Islamic Jihad rockets fell short (like the Al-Ma’madani hospital blast).

This wasn’t journalism.
This was coordinated disinformation between terrorist groups and major Western media outlets.

The public was deliberately misled for years.

Demand accountability.
Share this. Don’t let them get away with it.

[Andrew Neil @afneil]

Starmer cheered by Labour staffers when announcing nationalisation of British Steel. What he didn’t mention was that its been under the government’s control since April 2025, since when:
Taxpayers ponied up almost £400 million in the nine months to January 2026 (9 months).
The ongoing cost is around £1.3 million per day.
State subsidy to reach ~£615 million by June 2026 — and exceed £1.5 billion by 2028 if the current subsidy rate continues.

The most Green Party story I’ve ever read.

The Greens reparations officer, Antoinette Fernandez, who supports the idea of Britain paying trillions of pounds in slavery reparations, is descended from a Nigerian royal family that traded slaves.

One of them owned 1,400 slaves.

[Andrew Bridgen @ABridgen]

Reformed ex-climate alarmist, Tom Harris: “Wind turbines require a backup fossil fuel plant that continues burning 90% of the time, making the wind turbine largely unnecessary and, in essence, just for show”.

This is a far cry from the environmentally friendly image presented.

Malcolm Offord has employed hundreds of thousands of people and paid £45 million in tax.

John Swinney has rinsed the taxpayer for more than £2.5 million in salary payments.

Remind me again, which one of them is "Stronger for Scotland"?
