Remembering the late, great Dolly, who brought joy, comfort and inspiration to so many - including the millions of children given free books through her Imagination Library. We will always ❤️ you.
This is hilarious. A random woman drove past Nigel Farage and yelled “wanker.”
She instantly crashed her car straight after. I’ve watched this 30 times and still far from bored of it. 😂
In 1966 England 🏴 beat Argentina 🇦🇷 1-0 in the quarter-final of the World 🌎 Cup.
The dirty Argentinians had Antonio Rattin sent off and manager Sir Alf Ramsey described the team as "animals."
Sixty years later history repeats itself.
The Government will collect £331bn in income tax this year, and spend £333bn on welfare.
In other words, we now spend more on people not working than we raise from those who do.
And the cost?
Debt per person has risen from £11.5k in 2000 (inflation adjusted) to over £41k today.
The US/Israeli attack on Iran and the widening hostilities in the region are exposing the growing scandal that is Britain’s military capabilities, or lack thereof. We are still in the world’s top 5/6 on defence spending yet:
We don’t have a single warship in the whole of the Mediterranean, despite the eastern Mediterranean becoming part of the theatre of war.
We don’t have a single warship in the Gulf. We have a naval base in Bahrain. But a base with no ships.
We don’t have any subs to deploy. The one active Astute Class sub is in Oz.
We have a handful of fighter jets in Cyprus.
And a smaller handful in Qatar (attached to Qatari airforce).
That’s it. Most of what’s left of the Navy — not even in the top 30 in the world in terms of warships these days — seems to be in repair/maintenance/renovation. Brilliant MoD planning.
Labour/Tories/LibDems who all had a shot at government these past 16 years need to be held to account.
When Ed Davey says Brit expats in the Gulf should pay for UK protection, exactly what protection does he have in mind that would be worth paying for?
🚨 WATCH: Donald Trump again attacks Keir Starmer and the UK's immigration policy
"The UK has been very, very uncooperative... they are ruining relationships, it's a shame... windmills are ruining their country... you have Sharia courts adjudicating law"
🚨 HOLY CRAP. This actually just happened on Capitol Hill.
SEN. JOSH HAWLEY: "Can men get pregnant?"
LIBERAL DR. VERMA: "I'm not sure what the goal of the question is."
HAWLEY: "The goal is to establish a biological reality. Can men get pregnant?"
VERMA: "I take care of people with many identities."
HAWLEY: "Can men get pregnant?"
VERMA: "Again, as I'm saying-"
HAWLEY: "You said science and evidence should control. Can men get pregnant? You're a doctor, I think."
VERMA: "Science and evidence should guide medicine."
HAWLEY: "Do science and evidence tell us that men can get pregnant?"
VERMA: "I think yes-no questions like this are a political tool."
WOW. 🤯🤯🤯 @HawleyMO
