Just to put things in perspective.
The average state pension in Spain is higher than in the UK.
The cost of living in Spain is 33% lower than in the UK.
Spain's equivalent to our council tax is about a tenth of what we pay in the UK. And they get daily bin collections.
Where's our money going?
“I have a brilliant net zero plan. We are surrounded by natural energy resources, but let’s ignore that and buy £40 billion of oil and gas from Norway, which comes from the same sea that we share with them. Let’s spend £11.6 billion on overseas climate aid. Let’s spaff away £30bn on carbon capture machines. Let’s ban gas boilers and put in heat pumps. Let’s end new coal mining licenses and spend millions of pounds for foreign coal to keep Britain's last steel plant running. Let’s plaster solar panels on farmland, but also spend £50 million on sun dimming experiments. We will do this in a country that has the fifth least annual sunlight hours. And we will end up with the most expensive industrial electricity prices in the developed world. But shhh…let’s not talk about how much energy and water is required to power those massive AI data centres…”
🚨 The most dangerous agenda in the UK right now is barely being discussed on the evening news. The establishment is actively trying to bankrupt British farmers. Through insane "green" regulations, punishing inheritance taxes, and cheap foreign imports, they are forcing multi generational family farms to sell up. And who buys the land? Mega corporations and the state. Remember this rule: whoever controls the food, controls the people. Support British farmers before it is too late.
Nigel Farage government.
We get:
Putin.
No NHS.
Heath poverty.
Crashed economy.
No workers rights.
No maternity pay.
No sick pay.
No holiday pay.
No right to strike.
ICE fascists.
We ALL lose.
Nigel Farage is a grave dangerous to our democracy and national security.
@THERussellGrant A true gentleman. They adored each other and their Hiawatha routine was legendary. Wishing you all the best Russell with your health & happiness x
@MarieTidball@cbissex@Nigel_Farage@reformparty_uk Congratulations to all of you who worked so hard to make this happen. Snooker great, but more importantly for securing The Crucible Theatres position as being one of the greatest theatres in the world. Now able to produce more flexible productions to larger audiences. Take a bow
Wants to open a shipping lane 3,000 miles away.
Doesn't want to permit oil and gas exploration on our shores and within our waters.
It is actual madness.
He should be talking to a shrink, not a BBC journalist.
🚨 BREAKING: The DOJ has "indefinitely paused" the unsealing of the final Epstein files, citing "regional instability" and "national security" regarding the Iran conflict.
If you had ANY remaining doubts, then nobody can help you.
How can it be that an 800 year old right central to our constitution can be taken away by a government that has no mandate for doing so?
The justification of clearing a backlog is ridiculous given the law has been in place for 800 years!
Labour are traitors to the UK!
Looks like out of 404 Labour MPs only 10 voted against the stripping back of hundreds of years of rights for jury trials. Labour really is dead.
The supine appeasement of sinister authoritarianism is sickening. Cynical career politicians have sold whatever remnants of their souls they had.
These MPs
Voting to end 1000 years of a person’s right to trial by jury.

"TV tonight: a furious drama about water companies dumping raw sewage."
"It will have the nation furiously demanding answers." And a govt that doesn't have any.
