Kemi Badenoch’s Conservatives want to cut Disability Living Allowance for children with ADHD & special needs.

Meanwhile MPs get an extra £7,270 per child (max 3) on accommodation for “caring responsibilities”.

She claimed £278,687 in expenses last year (outside salary), including £37k on accommodation.

Lead by example. Cut your own costs first.

Labour will work with Reform.
Labour will work with the Tories.

But not the Greens, even when local people want it.

Standing up for Palestinians is a red line. Working with Reform isn't.

Want a party that won't pick on disabled people & taxes the rich?

I'm sure you will all be glad to hear this heartwarming story.

As I have been saying since 2018, deregulated free zones are a key component of the wealthy sovereign elites overthrow of our democracies.
There are now 91 Free zones in the UK, these were created immediately after Brexit, it is no coincidence that, outside of EU regulations, State aid can now be exploited for profit motives.
The tech libertarians gambit goes like this, in order to solve the problem of ‘big government’ it must be broken down into smaller pieces where it can be more easily ‘managed’.
This is where the template of the colonialist free zone comes into play.
Free zones carve out corporate governed territories from the host country with massive deregulatory benefits for corporations built into them, 9/10 ratios of profit distribution in favour of the private sector, 10 year tax breaks, land grabbing, 25 year contracts, sell off of public assets flipped for maximum privatization and on top of that facilitating and committing just about every corporate crime under the sun.
Have you noticed how the word ‘sovereignty’ has been weaponized by the right?
Collective sovereignty is about people power, corporate sovereignty is the asset classes power.
Patchworks of corporate sovereignty are the main thrust behind free zones.
The UK is being carved up and privatised, this was a decided and executed by both the Tories and Labour.
Please follow my research across X, Bluesky, and Substack.

Taxpayers foot the £2,700 a month rent on Kemi Badenoch's six-bedroom farmhouse in Essex. Then she goes on telly and argues that taxpayers shouldn't subsidise other people's rent.

Yesterday, Ed Miliband vowed that the government “will not stand by” and “will not rest” until the suffering in Gaza ends.

Yet not a single arms export licence was revoked or suspended under his latest restrictions on Israel.

When I posted yesterday about Andy Burnham’s political machine secretly intercepting public emails to protect his Abu Dhabi property deals, my inbox was flooded by people thanking me for finally calling out what goes on in Manchester.

Well, I woke up this morning and looked at the latest financial disclosures coming out of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, and the rabbit hole just got so much darker.

Burnham's authority has been caught funnelling nearly £1,000,000 of taxpayer money to completely anonymous beneficiaries in a series of secret payments.

They paid out £83,000 in rent to a hidden landlord. They handed out thousands in anonymous "consultancy fees." Worst of all, they gave a £210,000 capital grant to a property developer and completely redacted the name from the public ledger.

When journalists finally confronted them, the authority claimed hiding the £210,000 developer payout was just a "human error" and blamed the rest of the secrecy on data protection laws.

Look at the terrifying double standard at play here.

If a working citizen misfiles a tax return by fifty pounds or makes a mistake on a local form, the state will investigate their entire life, apply ruthless penalty fines, and threaten them with court.

But when Burnham's regional authority hands a fifth of a million pounds of public cash to an anonymous property developer, they simply shrug and call it a clerical typo.

This is exactly how the modern British political cartel operates. They use the language of bureaucracy and data protection as a legal shield to funnel public wealth to private, hidden corporate interests.

I am sorry, but they are not governing a city. They are running a shadow ledger with your money, and they are terrified of the public finding out who is actually cashing the checks.

Left: Five times on the BBC’s Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, Nigel Farage claimed the UK couldn’t control EU immigration under freedom of movement and had an 'open door policy' - that’s a lie.

Right: In 2017, Femi got him to admit on LBC that EU rules allowed restrictions. “Femi, in theory, you’re right.”

My view:

There was no “open doors” policy with the EU. Freedom of movement was and still is managed migration.

Freedom of movement meant British citizens could live and work in any of the other 27 EU countries, and their citizens could do the same here.

After three months, an EU citizen could stay in the UK if they were working or self-employed.

Students and people living on their own funds could also stay if they had enough money to support themselves and comprehensive health cover.

That’s Article 7 of EU Directive 2004/38/EC.

Article 14(4)(b) also protected jobseekers who could show they were still looking for work and had a genuine chance of finding it.

Article 8 allowed the UK to require EU citizens staying longer than three months to register.

The UK chose not to apply these rules.

Just as it was the UK government’s choice to impose austerity and cut public services, causing real frustration and making life more difficult for people.

At the end of the video, Femi warns that ending freedom of movement could lead to more immigration. And that’s exactly what happened. Under the UK’s post-Brexit rules, put in place by lead Brexiter Boris Johnson, net migration rose to 944,000 in the year to March 2023.

Five times Laura Kuenssberg could have corrected Nigel Farage on his remarks, five times she ignored it. It's this type of dishonesty from journalists who drive narratives instead of providing objective analysis.

8 of the 11 Democrats who skipped the vote to impeach war criminal Pete Hegseth were not “caught in traffic.” They were at an AIPAC-affiliated event that was scheduled at the same time as the impeachment vote by the Democrat’s House whip Katherine Clark. Turns out she was whipping votes to protect, not impeach, Hegseth. This was all planned because their AIPAC donors don’t want Hegseth impeached. If Hegseth is held accountable for war crimes it opens up the possibility of more Zionist war criminals being held accountable. They want to preserve the corrupt world we live in now where US/Zionist war criminals murder with impunity.

Big thanks to @JulianAndreone who broke the story about the AIPAC-affiliated meeting being scheduled at the same time as the Hegseth impeachment vote.

Just what the fuck is Burnham playing at?

[Felicity Campbell @feli_campbell]

643 people sent me a DM yesterday about my post exposing how Andy Burnham’s Manchester council machine secretly intercepts emails from the public.

I believe this new revelation is going to trigger an even bigger shockwave.

Manchester City Council is currently fighting tooth and nail to keep a massive urban regeneration contract hidden from taxpayers.

The corporate partner is a Hong Kong-based developer called Far East Consortium. The funding is a staggering £120 million of public money, including £34.1 million handed over directly by Burnham’s combined authority.

Here is the specific detail that exposes the absolute arrogance of the modern political class.

When a local resident filed a request to read the document, the Chinese developer actually consented to its publication. It was the British council that intervened, heavily redacted the contract, and officially branded the taxpayer’s request for basic transparency as "manifestly unreasonable."

We are operating in a geopolitical environment where foreign powers routinely use infrastructure and property investment to build leverage inside Western cities.

Yet local Labour authorities are handing nine-figure sums of public wealth to Chinese-linked conglomerates, while deploying the full weight of their legal departments to keep British citizens in the dark.

They are perfectly comfortable outsourcing the regeneration of a major UK city to foreign capital. They are just terrified of the people funding the project ever seeing the actual terms.

All 11 Democrats who couldn’t be bothered to show up to impeach war criminal Pete Hegseth have taken money from AIPAC or other pro-Israel PACs:

Haley Stevens ~ $15.9M
Nancy Pelosi ~$166K
Laura Gillen ~$572K
Marilyn Strickland ~$371K
Steven Horsford ~$213K
Julia Brownley ~$134K
Brittany Pettersen ~$125K
Lou Correa ~$80K
Melanie Stansbury ~$60K
Frederica Wilson ~$39K
Jonathan Jackson ~$21K

There are no excuses left to make. The Democrats couldn’t even show up to hold a war criminal accountable who bombed an elementary school and mass murdered children.

A new party is required.

And it’s not just Texas. Over 30 states across the US have similar laws.
