Paying £12 billion quid in ONE YEAR for foreign nationals to receive welfare benefits, more than half of whom are not working at all, is a total disgrace. That money should go on our schools, our hospitals, on building new prisons, and to the British people.
Oil prices & petrol/diesel prices 2008 versus 2016: UK 🇬🇧
▪️Oil is 27% cheaper in 2026 than 2008.
Yet…
▪️Petrol is 41% higher & diesel is 44% higher in 2026 compared to 2008.
We are being fleeced.
Anyone in the UK can legally circumcise a boy, even if they have no medical training. Five babies have died and many more have come to serious harm. The law must be urgently reformed to protect boys.

This should be on the national news. Why isn't it? There was a time a missing 13 yr old girl's face would be everywhere!!
These are the details issued by police, I've linked it at the end of the post too:
"Lillia left her home address in Bolton at approximately 20:00 hours on Friday 11th September 2026 and after failing to return home was reported missing by her family.
Lillia has been identified on CCTV in the Piccadilly Gardens area of Manchester City Centre and the Trafford Centre on Saturday 12th September 2026.
Lillia is a white 13-year-old female with long light brown hair worn in a low ponytail. She wears clear frame glasses. She was last seen wearing dark wide leg trousers, black hooded zip front jacket and carrying a black Nike rucksack".
Please share. It takes two seconds to repost and try to get Lillia's face seen. It feels like every day, every hour, we're seeing stories like this about our kids and as a mum it's heartbreaking.
What has this country become?
If you've seen her or have any information, contact Greater Manchester Police:

Please help get Lillia home safely. 🙏
I used to think of myself as a fairly ordinary liberal.
Free speech. Sex is real. Borders matter. Children should not be medicalised for a feeling. One law for everyone.
None of that was exotic ten years ago. Now each item can get you treated as a heretic.
The left did not lose people because they suddenly became cruel. It lost them by moving the boundary of acceptable opinion until yesterday’s common sense became today’s thoughtcrime.
People don't talk enough about how badly the entire West deteriorated after the Covid lockdowns.
Something changed in a sinister way.
Everything is just worse now. Life quality has worsened, city life isn't the same either. I don't know how to put my finger on it.
Labour admits more than 200,000 people on benefits are better off than the average person working full-time in Britain.
Who else agrees that absolutely nobody should be better off on benefits than a working person?
It’s morally wrong.
For years I've been saying the UK tax system is out of control and very wealthy people who pay disproportionately more taxes will leave. When someone like Chris Rokos leaves the UK the money he was paying in taxes (£330M last year) falls on the shoulders of ordinary tax payers.
Here's a few interesting points about this story:
1. Rokos is one of the world's best bond traders. His business is to understand how government policy impacts the economy. The fact that he's leaving the UK is a massive signal - he sees a negative outlook in the UK. He sees that we will go down the disastrous path of wealth taxes, exit taxes and become even more anti-wealth and anti-success than we already are.
2. A move like this has a lot to do with his senior team. Chris would have a dozen senior partners in his organisation that are fed up with the UK too. Each of them worth £100M+ or making £10M+ income. They would also be driving this decision. When the Greek authorities rolled out the red carpet, the London office would have talked it through as a team and decided where they wanted to be.
3. Big Whales make the headlines but this isn't one guy leaving. The news isn't covering the thousands of people leaving the UK who make £1M per year or who are taking their £10M of capital somewhere else. It certainly isn't covering the complete stop we've seen in entrepreneurs coming to the UK to invest.
4. Your idealistic feelings don't matter. Many people say "good riddance" and this is utterly foolish. We live in the real world and gleefully celebrating wealth creators leaving the economy is akin to a business celebrating their top customers taking their business elsewhere. The people leaving were not avoiding tax - if you could stay here and avoid tax then they wouldn't leave. The people leaving were paying MASSIVE amounts of tax but they got pushed too far. No one wants to pay 5-star prices for a 3-star service. You can call him "greedy" but until I see you happily paying a million a day I'll assume that all people are self interested.
5. The UK Government is genuinely broken and needs fixing. We pay more in welfare than the entire income tax collected. We let government pay 10x more for things than the private sector would allow. We have a revolving door between government and the contracting class who extract money from government. If you ran your business like the UK Government, you'd be broke in no time.
Like it or not, we live in a competitive world with a hyper-mobile class of wealthy people. Each country must choose to become a destination or it will be a departure gate. Greece has shown its cards - it's playing to win and rolling out the red carpet for wealth creators. The UK is deliberately playing a strategy that is proven to lose and shouldn't act surprised when it unfolds the way it always has.

Holiday Options
Stay at home and do some DIY, err no, you can’t risk adding to the value of your home.
Take a holiday in the U.K., err no, we now have a tourist tax
How about going abroad? err no, our Air Traffic control system has other ideas 🤦🏻♀️
Hamas, a terrorist organisation, is now praising Ed Miliband and the Labour Party.
Let that sink in.
The Labour government have sided with terrorists, who are now praising them.
