We (the uk) has one last chance to cut all this crap. The next GE will never be as critical to rid the uk of the uni party once & for all. If people are genuinely ok with all this crap then we are perhaps too late. We must have a complete break from the same old politicians.
@UK_Needs_Reform They should add tax to pointless business trips that could have been conducted online. All these politicians flying to COP, G20, G7, Davos to tell us plebs not to do what they're doing needs to end
This government just haven’t got the minerals to manage the country. They’re adopting & implementing primary school politics led by idiots who act as if they’re still In primary schools but have the odd day out dressing up as adults.
This is the UK's new Business Secretary. He's never run a business. Nor even worked for one. He knows nothing about risk taking. Nor entrepreneurship. Nor meeting payroll. Nor remortgaging his house to provide working capital. Nor hiring staff. Nor skipping his salary so his employees can have theirs. Nope. He couldn't even manage to finish his training to become a solicitor. And now he's Secretary of State for Business for HM Government.
Taking the bus fare price fix back to £2 to when Labour came into power, they’re so clueless. This Burnham 🤡 could well top that Starmer 🤡 for his u turns. Same old, new face Labour!
Andy Burnham is just tinkering around the edges to make us grateful for any scraps they throw at us.
1st scrapping 5% VAT on electricity bills.
2nd fixing Bus Fares to £2
Whoopie Do
We all know taxes are going to go up.
I think most people would rather hear him say he is shutting our borders & going to stop giving our money away to all & sundry.
We need real change not these pathetic tit bits.
Common sense, however discipline that police officer thug, make her & her colleagues under go basic training again, or even better sack her. Until they self discipline from within the police are paid for government thugs.
🚨Charges dropped.
West Midlands Police arrested and charged Cody Harper for assaulting an officer after he was jumped and beaten by a group on Broad Street.
They defended the officer’s actions as “reasonable and proportionate” while the actual attackers walked away.
Only after the video went viral and huge public pressure forced a CPS review did they finally drop the charges — on the eve of his court date.
This is exactly why people talk about two-tier policing and police overreach. They went after the victim first and only backed down when they couldn’t ignore the evidence anymore.
Justice shouldn’t require a social media storm.

If @andyburnham really wanted to help with Energy Bills he would remove the standing charges.
@MartinSLewis is right in this. Completely shameful that people have pay over £300 a year for the privilege of having a connection.
While families freeze next winter, Andy Burnham proudly offers 86p a week, not until October!
It's a nothingburger, since homes rely on gas, not just electricity.
A real solution would be scrapping Net Zero, saving £14Bn a year, and lowering energy prices for all households.
How come this Government keep saying how the Triple Lock Pension is unsustainable but never ever speak about the Public Sector Pension be unsustainable?
Public Sector Pensions costs this country an absolute fortune but it’s all kept very hush hush.
If someone is beat over the head 21 times with a hammer until dead… at her lunch table, there is no way on earth that can be mistaken for a fall or accident. I’m so fed up of misinformation & gaslighting.
“I shall be taking 80p a week off your electricity bills, it will be funded from the cut in the *cough unfunded ID bill, leaving an 80p per person tax shortfall, which will be added to your council tax, inheritance tax, posh school tax, and business rates.
No need to thank me”
ONE TAPE NOBODY WANTED TO WATCH
In 2008 a teenage girl in Rochdale told police she had been ra*ed. The Crown Prosecution Service @CPSUK watched hours of her taped testimony, had DNA evidence, and decided a jury would not find her credible. They dropped the case.
While that was happening, an NHS sexual health worker named Sara Rowbotham was doing the opposite of nothing.
Between 2004 and 2011 she sent 181 referrals to police and social services flagging the exploitation of girls in the area. Nobody acted on them.
In 2014, 2 years after 9 men went to prison off the back of this, the council made her redundant.
In 2011 a new chief prosecutor landed in the job. Nazir Afzal @nazirafzal pulled up the same interview tape everyone else had ignored.
Partway through the girl's testimony, the officer interviewing her yawned. Afzal reversed the CPS decision within days.
9 men were convicted in 2012. Years later a second, entirely separate Rochdale network surfaced, different girls, different men, decades of abuse nobody caught the first time round.
Its ringleader Mohammed Zahid got 35 years in October 2025. Same town, 2 rings, both missed for over a decade.
Afzal didn't stop there. He prosecuted @BBCNews presenter Stuart Hall for decades of child abuse. Then he turned on the Metropolitan Police, who have declined to investigate allegations involving Prince Andrew 3 separate times, in 2015, 2021 and again in December 2025.
He told @Channel4News "I can't think of any other reason" why the Met wouldn't investigate. For saying that out loud he got death threats.
The English Defence League camped outside his house demanding he be deported. He was born in Birmingham.
The CPS let him go in 2015. Their official line was efficiency savings.
So here's the scoreboard. The woman who spent a decade raising the alarm lost her job. The man who finally acted on it lost his job too.
The force that spent a decade finding reasons not to look at a prince kept theirs intact.
Nobody who behaved badly in this story paid for it. Everybody who did the right thing did.

Mohamed Abdulraziq dragged a five-year-old girl off the street and sexually assaulted her.
When I referred his sentence to the Government as unduly lenient, the minister disagreed.
That minister - Ellie Reeves - has just been made Attorney General.

Fraudsters and Tax evaders, no mandate, no moral authority, this is Labour and they're going to fuck you over in every way they can whilst you struggle working all hours to try and provide your family with the life you enjoyed when you were growing up.
🚨 Darlington Council has signed off TWELVE translation contracts worth up to £720,000.
Seriously, why?!
Darlington has around 107,000 residents.
Roughly 8,400 weren’t born in the UK. And of course, many of those people will speak English.
Yet somehow the council has signed off 12 separate translation contracts worth up to £60,000 each.
No wonder the council is £170m in debt!
Then remember…
We all carry a device in our pocket that can translate almost any language in seconds for free.
Yet our public sector continues spending tens of millions on translation every year.
Honestly… what are we doing?
Labour have spent months hounding Nigel Farage over a gift that broke no laws.
Now they've appointed Louise Haigh, who has a criminal conviction, to one of the most senior roles in government, effectively deputising for Andy Burnham when he's unavailable.
And we're now being told to stop mentioning her conviction.
The double standards couldn't be clearer.
I was a Tory member for many years, I put up with a lot but the Sunak coup was the very last straw.
I see @KemiBadenoch's mask has slipped recently, gone the friendly reforming face of fresh Conservatism...
Now its one of a dedicated #UniParty leader, out to protect the two party stitch-up #Gravytrain at all costs.
It is absolutely not for the good of Britain!!

Helen Flanagan, Head of Counter Terrorism Policing London, on the 12 guys arrested for terrorism:
"we have found no evidence to support anyone being charged with any offences linked to the alleged threat...
... While I know this may still be very concerning to the public and particularly to those in the Muslim community, I want to reassure them that our enquiries are ongoing. Should we identify any potential offences or threats to the public then we will not hesitate to take further action."
Why would this be concerning to the Muslim community?! Surely they're delighted there was never a terrorist threat?
Basically there's nothing to charge them with but they'll continue in the hope they can pin something on them.
The nerve of our police forces. The absolute nerve.
