It's accepted as common knowledge Burnham is hugely popular-but it was only a few weeks ago he was described as being "coronated"
His only test has been being gifted a safe Labour seat
He received less electoral & media scrutiny than Starmer-whose popularity crumbled in weeks
We are deeply saddened at the passing of Ann Widdecombe, our Senior Patron
Ann last addressed the Bow Group in 2022, speaking passionately in defence of free speech, an issue she saw as more important than any other
Her lifelong steadfast principles serve as an eternal example to conservatives, patriots & Christians
May she rest in peace
"For Reform the bar is now set at a level they're expected to win every by-election-but this is a safe Labour seat where a Labour MP stepped down to coronate their new leader. It was always Burnham's to lose, it's entirely unremarkable."

The only way a RW party in politics now could make any impact without a major immigration & culture offer is by being radical enough to cut massively & offer to abolish most tax
But you know these guys will be saying"Er well we feel taxes could probably be a bit lower"
Hopeless
Thank you to @GBNEWS@Jacob_Rees_Mogg for featuring @johnredwood, or John of Wokingham's, Christmas Carol on Christmas Day📯
An annual Christmas tradition that we began at the Bow Group 15 years ago!
Watch Sir John's version here:

& Sir Jacob's below ⬇️
We are very pleased to present @JohnRedwood 's annual Christmas Carol, once again.
The tale of a government in turmoil, & the sword in the stone of growth...
Merry Christmas to one and all!
Why has Joey Barton been convicted of a crime for saying Eni Aluko was hired to tick boxes?
I don't think I've ever read a comment section about Aluko that didn't make the same point-has precedent therefore not been set to criminalise countless fans for a reasonable assumption?
“Trump was right-There is no doubt people in Britain are being silenced
Many felt Linehan's case was dropped so quickly due to Starmer’s fear of US reprisals during the state visit
The loudest voice championing free speech in the UK is currently Trump’s"

"The UK government owes it to the USA to treat #Trump with respect during his #statevisit
I expect Trump to raise the issue of free speech in the UK-& hes right to do so-there's obviously potential for disagreement to occur, if Starmer pushes back the visit could collapse"
@B_HQ
I've felt for decades Britain's mass immigration project would fail when hardship arrives
UK is facing very mild hardship-& is falling apart-What would things look like if a world war or major depression was happening?
Total collapse
That's the real mass immigration time bomb
Blair created a surveillance, censorship & control matrix under auspices of preventing terrorism that resulted in every UK citizen being under 24 hr surveillance. He did so whilst importing more terrorists than any government in history.
I wonder if there are any parallels here?
Lord Tebbit served as President of the Bow Group since 2015, he was a guiding light for us before, during, & will always be.
He performed a great & lifelong duty to this country, serving in both the RAF & government.
He deserves to rest, though we need him now more than ever.
"@BowGroup was the first think tank to call for us to leave the ECHR
We knew Rwanda wouldn't work-because of dual delay of UK & ECHR courts
Anyone coming to the UK with no Visa MUST be sent back, & in the ECHR it's not possible-People want control of our borders, within the UK"
I think MPs campaigning & voting by majority to kill babies might be a subtle sign that we are governed by the bad guys.
Probably worth dealing with that before we ponder if we should get involved in wars to stop other supposed bad guys thousands of miles away.
The official position of the authorities is now that 70% of the population are right wing terrorists
The reason they've done this is to make it much easier to legally justify surveillance on almost anyone under the auspices of preventing terrorism
The Stasi couldn't dream it up
Rather than restricting trade, many foreign powers used trade with the West to fund expansion of their militaries
@BowGroup recommended over a decade ago rather than sanctions, using the monies to bolster UK domestic defence
That lost decade has left us both weak, & huge target
This was always going to be the establishment play
Push immigration to all time record figures, then scale back a bit & claim it's sorted
The public never voted for mass immigration & have repeatedly voted to reverse it, that means returning to sub 1990s levels-not 2020 levels.
Nearly 1 million people didn't come to the UK between 2019 & 2023
Based on official figures almost 4 million people did
This doesn't include illegal immigration which no one, including the government, has produced an estimated of - but is also likely to be record high numbers.
"Behold I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall hurt you."

"We didn't have austerity with the Tories-& don't now-because we're still borrowing FAR beyond our means
Labour have gone for a toxic package of spending cuts & tax hikes-which means living standards will fall
We need a radically different approach for growth"
