Today, it’s England v Argentina.

The last time England faced Argentina, Margaret Thatcher sent a task force to liberate the Falklands, and the lads sent them packing. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I am married with a young daughter, both myself and my husband work.

-We are not entitled to housing benefit, or any other benefit for that matter.

-We do not get free eye tests, free dental care or free prescriptions.

-Our daughter is not entitled to free school meals, or free breakfast clubs, or free wrap around care, no help with her uniform.

-We don’t get council tax discount, or any other discount.

-We don’t get help with our energy bills, or low cost broadband.

-We don’t get help with the cost of going to the cinema, or days out at theme parks.

-My daughter is unable to play outside unsupervised, because you have failed to secure our borders and the streets aren’t safe.

-If I work more hours, I fall into the higher tax band.

Why should someone like me, vote for someone like you? @UKLabour @andyburnham

What are you offering my family?

This is absolutely brilliant. 😂

Couldn’t stop laughing when Pickford appeared. 😭

🚨 THE OFFICIAL DATA THEY ARE DESPERATELY HIDING FROM YOU.

Good morning to the millions of everyday, hardworking Brits. Waking up this Friday morning, it is time to completely expose the greatest economic lie of the last decade.

Andy Burnham is preparing to walk into Number 10, claiming Brexit destroyed our economy and demanding we get closer to the EU. 🤡

Facts over slogans. Let us look at the actual, official data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS)!

Since the Brexit referendum, UK GDP has surged by 12.9%. We have outgrown the EU’s top three economies, rising more than twice as fast as Germany!

George Osborne promised us 820,000 job losses if we voted Leave. Instead, UK jobs are up by a massive 2.4 MILLION.

Burnham claims our trade collapsed. The official data proves UK global exports are up 17.6% since 2016.

Business investment? Up nearly 17%.

The establishment's entire "Project Fear" was a complete and utter fraud, yet Andy Burnham is still using it to justify dragging us straight back under the thumb of Brussels.

He wants to completely erase the democratic vote of 17.4 million people using a fake economic crisis that never actually happened!

RT to completely expose this massive uniparty scam and demand we stay OUT! 🔁🇬🇧🔥

[🇬🇧 Suze 🇬🇧 @WeLeftTheEUSSR]

Yup, this nails it.

[David Shaw @David90shaw]

🚨 YOU LITERALLY HAVE TO READ THIS TO BELIEVE IT.

If you own a home, have a pension, or plan to leave an inheritance, Andy Burnham's leaked economic plans should terrify you. 🤡

He is planning to scrap the capital gains tax "uplift on death," meaning grieving families will be hit with double tax bills on inherited family homes.

Begbies Chartered Accountants confirmed this double levy will hit grieving families with an effective 62% tax rate!

But it gets even worse.

Burnham wants to replace council tax with a new annual property tax of 0.48% of your home's value.

If you live in an average £553,000 house, you will be forced to pay £2,654 every single year just for the privilege of living in your own home!

They want to tax you while you live, tax you when you die, and tax your children for mourning you.

RT to expose the ultimate Labour wealth grab and demand a general election NOW! 🔁🇬🇧🔥

[Rob Moore @robprogressive]

The UK State Pension: £12,500/year for a lifetime of work

An illegal migrant: £41,000/year to the taxpayer

We are spending over THREE TIMES more on unvetted arrivals than on the seniors who built this country

The math just doesn't add up

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

“Let’s ban new oil and gas drilling in the North Sea but pay Norway £40 billion to import oil and gas from the North Sea. Let’s plaster solar panels on thousands of acres of farmland but have sun dimming experiments in a country that has the fifth least sun hours on the planet.”

[David Shaw @David90shaw]

🚨 A STUNNING SNUB TO THE KING AND OUR NATION.

Keir Starmer is officially out, but the Labour Party has managed to deliver one final, sickening insult to our country's traditions.

For the first time in modern history, a Prime Minister informed the Monarch of his resignation over the phone, announcing it to the media before even having the basic decency to go to Buckingham Palace. 🤡

Every other Prime Minister in our history has had the dignity to look the Monarch in the eye and resign in person.

But this is exactly what the modern Labour Party represents.

They have absolutely zero respect for our heritage, zero respect for our constitutional traditions, and zero respect for the British public. 💷

They treat our ancient institutions with total contempt, and they are already preparing to install another unelected, pro-EU careerist like Andy Burnham without a single vote from you.

Starmer might be history, but the toxic Labour establishment is still running the show and managing our decline.

RT if you are sick to the back teeth of this classless Labour regime and demand a general election now! 🔁🇬🇧🔥

[Chris Rose @ArchRose90]

19 seconds in Southport laying a wreath, no tears.

No tears for British farmers who committed suicide.

No tears for pensioners.

No tears for betrayed British veterans.

No tears for the victims of illegal migration.

No tears for Henry Nowak.

Tears for himself only.

[Sith Daddy @sithdaddyx]

Let's celebrate the resignation of Keir Starmer with this wonderful song. Bye-bye, Keir! We will remember you as the biggest wanker of all UK leaders. Donald Trump and his band are performing this song for your pleasure. The Spotify version is coming soon.

[Chris Rose @ArchRose90]

Keir Starmer is reportedly on the brink of resigning as Prime Minister.

Fantastic. The worst Prime Minister in my lifetime. Not once did he ever put Britain first and despite his promise to clean up politics, his government has been scandal-ridden.

I have zero pity for him.

[Benonwine @benonwine]

Great British patriot Katie Hopkins was kicked out of the Dundee Arms in Bethnal Green.

I thought this was still a free society. But when people are thrown out of establishments simply because others dislike their politics, it says everything.

The irony is hard to ignore: those who constantly preach tolerance, diversity and inclusion often seem the least tolerant of opposing views.

If your response to disagreement is censorship, exclusion, and silencing people, then you’ve already lost the argument.

BOYCOTT THIS ESTABLISHMENT AND MAKE IT FAMOUS FOR WHAT IT REALLY IS, A LEFT WING CESPIT OF TOXIC HATE AND DISCRIMINATION!

[David Atherton @daveatherton]

Made me laugh.

Jeremy Clarkson has never pretended to be anything other than exactly what he is

Brutally honest. No oil painting. A pot belly, a lifelong smoker, a drinker. Not exactly the modern alpha male or is he?

And somehow that is the whole point

I have watched him for most of my life
First as a motoring journalist who could make you want a car you would never own and never need
Then as something bigger
The loudest, funniest, most unfiltered mouthpiece the ordinary person ever had
A man who said the thing everyone was thinking while the rest of television tiptoed around it

From Top Gear he built something that should not have worked
Three middle aged men, The Stig, a track and a chemistry you cannot manufacture
James May the patient one
Richard Hammond the brave one
And Clarkson the force of nature dragging both of them into chaos and somehow back out again

When it all fell apart at the BBC he could have disappeared
The fracas was not his finest hour and he never pretended it was
He owned it, apologized and carried on
No reinvention, no groveling tour, no carefully managed comeback
He just kept being himself and let the work speak

The move to Amazon and The Grand Tour proved something I think a lot of people missed
The format was never the magic
The men were
You can take three friends out of a studio and drop them anywhere on earth and the loyalty between them travels with them

But it is Clarkson's Farm where the whole picture finally comes into focus

Here is a man with nothing left to prove walking into a field he barely understands and refusing to fake competence he does not have
He has run that farm at break even and then at an outright loss in full public view
No editing it into a success story
No pretending the numbers work when they do not
His farm manager hands him one brutal truth after another and he sits there and takes it

A whole season swallowed by drought even after he leaned into robotics and the most advanced farming money could buy
Technology was supposed to be the answer and the weather did not care
He showed that too
Most people would have cut it

And through all of it he has done something quietly remarkable
He has dragged the plight of the British farmer into the light
The paperwork, the council, the margins that vanish, the weather that ruins a year of work in a week
People who had never thought about where their food comes from suddenly cared because he made them care

And then there is the part nobody warned me about
Men who raise animals for meat and still love them
Who name them, worry about them, sit with them
Who treat them with respect and dignity right up to the moment they cannot keep them
And feel the full weight of sending them off

He does not hide that
He lets the camera sit in the discomfort of it
The grief of a man who knows the deal he made and still finds it hard

That is not weakness
That is honesty most people are far too afraid to show

We live in an age that rewards the polished, the curated, the carefully built personal brand
And here is a scruffy, swearing, chain smoking farmer who has done the opposite of all of it and won
He stayed exactly who he was while the world begged him to become a product

That is the whole secret
There is no act
There never was

And that is exactly why we keep watching

Praying for a full recovery mate, looking forward to another season of Clarkson's Farms!
