The premise that the gov’t is responsible for the economy is the foundation for 75 years of flawed gov’t policies; it taints everything.

“Ireland's data centre energy drain. How Big Tech added €1.4bn to household electricity bills.”

Tech giants are hoovering up massive energy and water supplies to power their data centres and the public are paying for it. No one voted for this.

Zia Yusuf and Michelle Dewberry put this arrogant Labour Peer back in his box.

Labour has treated Rhiannon Whyte’s mother appallingly. They still have not met with her.

Two-Tier Keir has not mentioned Rhiannon Whyte’s name, a contrast to Brianna Ghey and George Floyd.

'It is deeply sinister!'

Zia Yusuf accuses the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service of using taxpayer money to 'intimidate and punish' firefighters who wish to stand as Reform UK candidates.

[Lozza @lbrewer190]

Straight out of the communist playbook. Accuse others of what you're doing yourself. Powell has the outrageous audacity to claim Reform are a threat to democracy. Yet The Labour Party tried to cancel elections, they knew they would would loose. It was Reform UK who took legal action to forced the elections to take place.

The hypocrisy of Labour politicians is off the scale, at a time where blatant lying is an everyday occurrence.

Vote Reform to throw Labour out of office.

I have formally referred South Wales Police to the equalities watchdog.

Their guidance amounts to a blasphemy law against Islam and has no basis in law.

We cannot put one religion on a pedestal above others.

We should all be equal before the law.

[BanksyCat @Banksycat]

You want to know what's worse than incompetence? Knowing the truth and burying it anyway.

They knew. That's the bit nobody is saying. They knew.

Two days after Henry died Hampshire Police secretly recorded Digwa in a police van speaking Punjabi to his brother. Digwa admitted stabbing Henry. Discussed claiming self defence. Made zero mention of racial abuse. Not one word.

Hampshire Police had that tape.

They knew Digwa was lying about the racist attack. They had the evidence. They had his own words and then tried to smear Henry as the aggressor anyway.

Three days after his death their statement read “it was reported two men had been assaulted by an unknown man.” Henry was the unknown man. The boy bleeding out on the street. They flipped it.

Family complained. Statement changed. Then police told the family their NEXT update would again infer Henry was the initial aggressor. His family had to fight them a second time. While grieving their murdered son.

Then during the trial Hampshire tried to issue a statement telling the public to stop talking about it online. Calling it disinformation. The CPS had to step in. Told them they were about to collapse their own murder case.

This is the force that handcuffed a dying boy. Missed the murder weapon twice. Had a secret tape proving the killer lied. And still tried to bury Henry's name.

That's not incompetence. That's a machine protecting itself. At the expense of a dead boy's reputation and three officers are still on active duty. Not suspended. Treated as witnesses. To their own actions.

Hampshire Police didn't just fail Henry on that street. They kept failing him for six months after he died.

[The Free Speech Union @SpeechUnion]

Senior figures at Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service, under the command of Andy Burnham, have cautioned firefighters who support Reform UK over their political views.

In a further chilling assault on free speech, staff have also effectively been urged in an email to report colleagues who support Reform.

Fire brigade bosses have also said they are seeking legal advice on what to do about firefighters who decide to stand as Reform UK candidates. This is despite the fact that, unlike police officers, there is no legal bar preventing firefighters from participating in national or local politics.

In their email, fire brigade bosses Mr Petch and Ms Ahmed said: ’We are aware that some staff members have chosen to represent Reform UK in their local areas. We know this may cause concern within our network and wider.

’The individuals involved have been spoken to, to make it clear that as members of GMFRS (Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service) our core values and professional behaviours must be displayed at all times.

’The service is currently seeking formal legal guidance… to ensure we are protected from all perspectives and that our inclusive culture remains safe.

‘Our priority is and always will be ensuring that every member of this network feels supported, respected and safe at work.’

They also confirmed that they would be consulting the Fire Brigades Union on the matter.

In his role as Mayor of Greater Manchester, @AndyBurnhamGM — who is also tipped by some to be a future Prime Minister if he wins the Makerfield by-election — is also Greater Manchester’s Fire Commissioner, responsible for overseeing the service.

General Secretary of the Free Speech Union, Lord Young of Acton, has now written to Mr Burnham to raise concerns about the chilling effect this has on free speech.

Lord Young said that the ‘clear implication’ of the email from the fire brigade bosses was that ‘representing Reform UK constitutes an inherent threat to the institution’s culture and values and is to be treated as morally suspect’. He also highlighted that no action appears to have been taken against firefighters who support other political parties.

The letter also states: ‘Staff are further invited to report colleagues who support any groups that go against the service’s values, which effectively amounts to an instruction to inform on colleagues for their political beliefs.

’The email will create a chilling effect on the free speech of GMFRS employees who support Reform.

’The practical effect is that a public fire and rescue service governed by you is treating the lawful political activity of your electoral opponents as a reputational risk to their employer.

‘Regardless of whether this reflects your instruction, it reflects your governance; and a public office-holder who permits his institution to demonise or chill the speech and political activity of those who support his principal electoral rival cannot claim to be discharging that office with the impartiality it demands.’

Look who's come to Downing Street.

The British people are not his priority at all.

[Right over Left Everytime @RightSide_Uk]

HOLY SHIT.
A senior police officer has just admitted to two-tier policing in Birmingham.
When asked why there were almost no police present during violent unrest, he said they “met with community leaders,” allowed the community to “police within themselves,” and chose a “style of policing” because a “small minority of criminals” would attack officers.
Translation: They stood down because certain communities threatened violence against the police — and the police decided it was better for the narrative to let them run wild than to enforce the law.
This is not policing. This is surrender.
Britain now has areas where the state has ceded control to parallel societies that openly threaten violence if the law is applied equally.
The mask is off.
Two-tier policing is real. The police are afraid of certain groups. And the British people are paying the price.
This ends when we say it ends.
Restore law and order. End two-tier policing now.

[Alexandra @Alexandr4Denman]

MORE EVIDENCE has emerged of TWO TIER justice in the case of Lucy Connolly's case . CPS documents obtained by her show that Lord Hermer personally authorised her prosecution within hours on a Saturday , treating it as an "emergency case. " This was while the government was rushing through instructions to prioritise Southport riot related sentencing and push for custodial terms .
She was jailed for 31 months for a single , deleted tweet posted in the hours after three little girls were slaughtered .
The tweet was in some peoples minds wrong , but deleted just as quick , but the speed and seniority of the response raises real questions about whether she was singled out to send a message while inflammatory posts went unpunished .
This isn't about defending the tweet ( which i could understand as a mother) its about whether the justice system applied the same standards to everyone during that disturbing time and chaotic days . Thoughts?

PASS IT ON.
Keir Starmer and nearly every Labour MP voted to protect Muslim paedophile gang rapists — because they want their votes.
This is not Saddam Hussein. This is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
Starmer is willing to let British girls be raped and trafficked if it buys him a few more Labour seats in Muslim areas.
Let that sink in.
The same government that jails mothers for angry tweets and calls for two-tier policing now shields organised child rapists.
This is not incompetence. This is calculated betrayal.
British children are being sacrificed on the altar of political power.
The grooming gangs were real. The cover-up was real. And the people who enabled it are still in charge.
Enough.
Starmer must go. The gangs must be destroyed. Britain must be restored.
Pass it on.

[Bernie @Artemisfornow]

Brilliant news taxpayers, we’re paying to ensure two tier policing continues.

Police forces are hiring diversity officers
on £75,000 a year. Oh and £64,000 for a culture and inclusion lead.

Utterly ridiculous.

[Right over Left Everytime @RightSide_Uk]

Keir Starmer blamed Nigel Farage.
He blamed Elon Musk.
He blamed J.D. Vance.
He has blamed the British public for protesting.
At some point, you have to ask whether he is the problem.
While British boys are stabbed and left to die in handcuffs, grooming gangs run free, and police smear the victims, Starmer’s only instinct is to attack those who expose the rot.
He is not a leader. He is the architect of the crisis.
Britain does not need another excuse-maker. It needs him gone.

[Bernie @Artemisfornow]

Er … Firefighters in Manchester who support Reform UK have been cautioned over their views by bosses.

And staff are being urged to snitch on colleagues who express support for Reform.

so when Starmer said “Free speech is one of the founding values of the United Kingdom, and we protect it jealously and fiercely and always will.” … that was just disinformation 🤡

Public institutions are terrified of getting race wrong. So they outsource judgment to agenda-driven activists and “community leaders” who give advice that damages trust.
The answer is not to trash the police but to restore common sense.
