Given the horrendous content being shared on this platform, and the danger I believe it presents to our country and our democratic way of life, I won’t be posting on here until there is a suitable change of ownership.

Hardly anyone talks about the late payments. So many businesses rely on consistent cash flow, and as money becomes tighter payments become later, which compounds cash flow - meaning paying salaries is harder, paying supply chain on time harder, and the cycle continues.
Zero-growth Britain is no accident. It’s policy.
Bank of England data now shows Q4 growth at 0%, after the economy shrank in October. The private-sector downturn is the sharpest in years. Job vacancies are down over 6%. Investment is frozen as business owners await the next tax grab.
This is happening after Labour’s Budget.
- Energy costs are crushing margins.
- Uncertainty is killing confidence.
- Entrepreneurs are sitting on their hands or packing their bags.
The OBR is already warning that growth will be slower than forecast. At the same time, asylum claims have exceeded 110,000, while 174,000 young people aged 16–34 left the country in a single year.
Think about that.
We are importing pressure and exporting talent: losing founders, builders, and risk-takers while telling business owners to “just cope”.
- This is not recovery.
- It is not bad luck.
- It is a deliberate choice to prioritise ideology over growth.
A country that punishes enterprise and ignores productivity does not stagnate by accident. It stagnates by design.
Welcome to Labour’s zero-growth Britain.
Poppy’s first Christmas was as wonderful as Lou and I could have imagined. We are very lucky parents. I hope everyone had a brilliant day, and here’s to further cheese boards until New Years! #christmas#family
I’ve written to Mayor Burnham with @ThomasMorrison & @LisaSmartMP on behalf of the #StockportLibDems calling on him to back our calls to abolish bus pass limits across Greater Manchester, to support our elderly and disabled residents in these tough times🔶 https://t.co/fXzqJXlXaZ
I’m horrified at what’s happened in Australia. As people were going to celebrate Chanukah, the evil of antisemitism yet again takes innocent lives. My thoughts are with everyone impacted and our Jewish communities here in Cheadle and across UK.
It’s a national shame that our emergency service workers receive no recognition when forced to retire after getting injured. They deserve so much more, here are my thoughts on how we fix this.

We are pleased to announce that Sophie Crossthorn has been selected to be the Liberal Democrat candidate to win back Sheffield Hallam at the next General Election.
'The Chancellor has chosen to copy the Conservatives with a stealth tax'
Liberal Democrats leader Sir Ed Davey spoke to #BBCBreakfast about the Budget which included a freeze on tax thresholds until 2031, meaning millions more people will pay additional tax

@Andrew_Heaton Same Andy. I just don’t see how he can carry on, there seems to be a huge disconnect between him and the team. No idea what’s happened after such a high from last season.
🚨 WATCH: Nigel Farage responds to allegations that he made racist comments to his classmates at Dulwich College
"I would never ever do it in a hurtful or insulting way.... it's 49 years ago"
@MauriceK1421 Hi Maurice, how are you? We’re waiting on Department for Transport basically. I’m working with the Council, Mayor and business community to push for a decision, it’s very very frustrating.
Thank you to @Daily_Express for picking up this important campaign. The government must do the right thing and give our emergency personnel the recognition they deserve!

This is a positive step that more countries are being placed on the Methanol warning list. It shows the Foreign Office is taking this seriously, but more needs to be done to- we need clear, simple guidance and more involvement from the travel industry.

The Liberal Democrats are calling for a 5% cut in VAT in the Budget to support the UK's ailing hospitality sector and their hard-pressed customers.
Deputy leader Daisy Cooper told #BBCBreakfast the Chancellor should cut VAT from 20% to 15%, funded by a new windfall tax on big banks, to boost footfall in Britain's pubs, restaurants and entertainment venues
