Yet more tax rises on the horizon…
Andy Burnham has said that Labour’s manifesto has room for movement on tax
He has told Andrew Marr that he will not raise VAT, income tax or national insurance but that there is flexibility for other taxes to rise.
We need to cut tax and spending rather than increase tax and spending.
Labour actively discourages growth in the name of welfare and migrants.
Dear Mr. Musk,
I, and the people of my town, owe you our gratitude. For six years, we have led the campaign for a Public Inquiry into the cover-up of the grooming and gang rape of Oldham’s children.
To this day, not a single mainstream reporter or news agency has told the full story of what powerful politicians did to those of us who refused to turn a blind eye to the industrial-scale abuse of children, not just in Oldham but across the UK. Without this platform, the truth would remain hidden.
Today, @Keir_Starmer and his @UKLabour will vote against a Public Inquiry into this national scandal. Here are the three main reasons why:
- To protect the block postal votes they rely on from sections of the UK’s Muslim communities to stay in power.
- To shield senior Labour politicians implicated in the cover-up, including Deputy PM @AngelaRayner, Home Secretary @YvetteCooperMP, Government Minister @JimfromOldham, and Greater Manchester Mayor @AndyBurnhamGM.
- To silence and demonise working-class communities like ours. They believe that by branding us as racists and far-right they can silence all opposition and tighten their grip on power.
The Prime Minister is fully aware of what took place in Oldham. When we first began our campaign, whilst leader of the Labour Party, @Keir_Starmer came to Oldham to help support members of his team that were trying to put myself and others in prison for daring to speak out.
Without your voice, and this platform, we would have already been defeated. For that we will be ever grateful. Thank you @elonmusk.
Yours Sincerely

Andy Burnham and his Labour Party did everything possible to prevent a National Inquiry into the Pakistani Rape Gangs. They knew that such a Public Inquiry would would have the power to ask questions that would end careers. Just as they knew, that should the truth emerge, politicians would go to prison for what they did.
So whilst the mainstream media and their political masters want to focus on screaming deportation, I want to focus my attention somewhere more dangerous.
The National Inquiry is coming to Oldham. Shabir Ahmed must be summoned to testify. It is time we all learned just who it was that protected him.
And yes, ask Andy Burnham if he denies it, Shabir Ahmed was protected and allowed to continue raping and trafficking little girls.

Imagine dragging the Prime Minister in front of a national inquiry, forcing him to testify under oath about his role in covering up the Pakistani grooming gangs scandal.
We can make this a reality. But I need your help.
For 8 years, I've exposed the cover-up of Pakistani rape gangs by police and politicians. Our campaign in Oldham forced a national inquiry. Now, we must compel this inquiry to investigate a place it wants to avoid: Andy Burnham's record.
As Mayor of Greater Manchester, Burnham fronted sham "assurance reviews". They were nothing more than a cover-up of the cover-up. He would have succeeded if not for us. We fought for a national inquiry despite his efforts to bury the truth.
The inquiry won't examine Burnham's actions unless we demand it. The clock is ticking. He's poised to become Prime Minister within weeks. Once he's in Downing Street, the establishment will shield him. Institutions will dodge accountability. The press will look away. Only we can carry the truth.
That's why Red Wall and the Rabble must become more than a one-man operation. To replicate our Oldham success nationwide, we need:
- A professional website to reach millions
- Video editing for accessible, viral content
- Dedicated researchers to chase every lead
- Training events to create citizen journalists
- Resources to gather evidence and report from failed communities
Before Burnham reaches Number 10, help us gain 2,000 new paid subscribers.

With your support, we can send complicit politicians to prison. Isn't that prospect alone worth backing?

Andy Burnham stated yesterday:
"People are giving up on politics.
This is our last chance to change"
The man with no mandate, installed by no democratic means, already assuming the PM role from the backbenches.
Under no circumstances accept this fraud.
This is our last chance.
I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.
@InTheTrenchesUK Mahmood knows that the most legal immigrants come from Pakistan she also knows that all the families of the men who rape white girls are complicit in covering it up . It’s the same in Pakistan it’s their culture , she will never deport them. There is no war in Pakistan .
The Council Bev Craig Led Hid Child Rape Evidence From Police. Now She Wants Your Vote To Replace Andy Burnham As Gtr Manchester Mayor.
Bev Craig wants to be the next Mayor of Greater Manchester. Before she gets your vote, she owes you an answer.
Manchester City Council supplied police investigating organised child rape with intelligence so heavily redacted that some pages contained only a handful of words. The inspectorate says it contributed to significant delays in investigations involving 1,099 suspects and 714 victims.
Nobody has explained who authorised those redactions. Nobody has been held accountable.

@RachelD1892 The British thought people like this were useful idiots.
They are idiots but on mass they are dangerous.
They are the reason the UK is in the s**t state it is in now.
Asylum seekers will be forced to repay hotel bills! Migrants to be barred from settling permanently in Britain unless they clear £10,000 charge! More Shoplifting & Robbing? https://t.co/lIQ3vTh8nX
This government is screwing every Labour voting , working man , into the ground ! The straight taxes will have to go up to pay for the increased benefits given to none British invaders to pay the money back.!
Well, it's another day and another stupid Home Office plan!
Labour’s £10k repayment charge on successful asylum seekers: recoup costs after years of hotels and support.
Weak deterrence; open borders continue.
£10k migrant charge deducted from benefits means taxpayers pay.
Labour illusion.
@zatzi January 2025. Khan is confused at terminology. This is how it started. First frame of his face is a facial lip purse, indicating holding thoughts back. His reply was the same effort as he tried with @davidkurten in 2020 again with @Councillorsuzie years later. Thank you both
"Save this post. Every fact in it is sourced to the BBC, Guardian, Telegraph, Sky and Met data. The only thing they never did was put it all in one place. So I did."
The Sadiq Khan Story: How a Bus Driver's Son Became the Most Dangerous Man Ever to Hold Office in London.
This is not a hit piece. This is a record.
Every line is publicly sourced. Every fact has been printed by the BBC, the Guardian, the Telegraph, the Standard, Sky News, LBC, or the Met Police's own data. The only thing missing from the official record is anyone with the spine to put it all in one place.
So here it is. The full picture. Start to finish. Decide for yourselves.
1968. The Arrival.
Amanullah and Sehrun Khan arrive in England from Pakistan. He drives a London bus for 25 years. She sews clothes at home. They raise eight children in a council flat in Tooting. By any honest measure, this is a story Britain should be proud of. The country opened its door, an immigrant family worked hard, and their son rose.
The problem is not where he came from. The problem is what he chose to do with what Britain gave him.
The Lawyer Years. Whose Side Was He On?
Before politics, Sadiq Khan was a human rights lawyer. And the human rights he chose to fight for tell you everything.
2001. Khan personally represents the Nation of Islam in the High Court and successfully overturns the UK's 15 year ban on Louis Farrakhan, one of the most notorious antisemites alive on the planet. A man who calls Jews "termites." Khan got him the legal right to walk back into Britain. Source: Wikipedia, Guardian, Standard.
2001 to 2006. Khan's law firm consults on the defence of Zacarias Moussaoui, the only person ever convicted in a US court of direct involvement in the 9/11 attacks. Source: Full Fact, Guardian.
2005 to 2006. Khan personally visits Babar Ahmad, a terror suspect, in Woodhill Prison. Ahmad's own father was an extremist Khan would later share a platform with in Parliament itself in 2012. Source: Evening Standard.
Post 7/7. Khan signs an open letter blaming the London bombings, the murder of 52 innocent Britons on their way to work, on British government policy. Not on the bombers. On us. Source: Middle East Forum, ConservativeHome.
2004 to 2013. Khan shares a platform NINE times with Suliman Gani, a Tooting imam who has called women "subservient" to men, condemned gay people, and called for the establishment of an Islamic state. Source: BBC, Guardian, Evening Standard.
That is not a defence lawyer doing his job. That is a pattern. That is a worldview.
The Mayoralty. The Wrecking Ball.
Since taking office in May 2016, here is what London has actually looked like under Sadiq Khan. Not opinion. Numbers.
Knife crime, up 72%. From 9,100 offences in the year to June 2016 to 15,639 in the year to June 2025. The 2024/25 figure of 16,147 is the highest of any year of his mayoralty. Source: Daily Mail, Evening Standard, Met Police data.
Khan was officially rebuked by the Office for Statistics Regulation for falsely claiming knife crime was falling. The state's own statistics watchdog had to publicly correct the Mayor of London. Source: Evening Standard.
Robbery up 59%. Residential burglary up 37%. Source: GLA Conservatives, Met Police data.
A record 30 teenage homicides in 2021. Thirty children, in one city, in one year. Source: Evening Standard.
Two tier policing, on the record. A damning think tank report called for Khan to be stripped of policing control, finding officers "failing to arrest those committing criminal damage or shouting 'jihad' at pro Palestinian rallies." His reduction of stop and search has had, in the report's own words, "a catastrophic impact on the fight against crime." Source: LBC.
This is the man lecturing you about safety.
ULEZ. The Greatest Highway Robbery in British History.
The Ultra Low Emission Zone was sold as a clean air policy. The data says otherwise.
£500 million plus extracted from London drivers since the 2023 expansion alone. Source: Daily Mail FOI data.
2.4 million penalties issued. One every 15 seconds. Source: Daily Mail FOI data.
£9 million of public money spent on a propaganda blitz to sell Londoners a policy they did not want. Source: Daily Mail, City Hall Conservatives.
Independent impact assessment: ULEZ expansion had a "negligible effect on air quality." Source: Sky News.
Sky News investigation: Khan's office accused of an "alarmingly cosy relationship" with scientific advisors, conspiring to silence research that contradicted his agenda. Source: Sky News.
He bankrupted small businesses. He taxed pensioners off the road. He told you it was for the children's lungs. The science says it did nothing. The receipts say it raised half a billion pounds. You do the maths.
TfL. Effectively Bankrupt.
£11 to £12 billion in debt. Paying £400 million a year just in debt interest. Bailed out by central government seven times. Described in the House of Commons as "effectively bankrupt." Source: BBC, Telegraph, Guardian.
This is the same man who increased the GLA council tax precept by 71% since 2016, from around £276 to over £510 for the average Band D household. Source: Full Fact, Evening Standard, BBC.
You pay more. The trains break down more. The buses are more dangerous. The Met is stretched thinner. Where did the money go?
The Cultural War on London Itself.
In June 2020, days after the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, USA, Khan set up the Commission for Diversity in the Public Realm. A £250,000 taxpayer funded panel to review which British statues, street names and memorials should remain standing. Source: Daily Mail, Express, Telegraph.
The commission's first scandal was its own commissioner. Toyin Agbetu was forced to resign after antisemitic and inflammatory social media posts were exposed. The man Khan picked to judge which British heroes deserved to stand had a record so toxic he had to be quietly dropped. Source: Telegraph, CUFI.
This is the man deciding which parts of British history are allowed to remain visible in the British capital.
The Grooming Gang Cover Up. London Edition.
In February 2026, the Express revealed that Sadiq Khan was not only denying the existence of grooming gangs in London but actively dismissing first hand evidence from whistleblowers as "malicious" and "politically motivated."
In May 2026, a survivor of grooming, a woman who was repeatedly trafficked directly into the capital, publicly accused Khan of "living under a rock" and wilfully turning a blind eye to a grooming gang epidemic in his city. Source: Express, May 2026.
This is not a historical scandal he inherited. This is happening now. To children. In his city. And he is doing the same thing every authority did in Rotherham, Rochdale, Telford, Oldham and Bradford for twenty years. He is calling the people who tell the truth liars, and he is calling the victims politically inconvenient.
History will hang this around his neck. And it should.
The Met, Hobbled. The Palantir Block.
May 2026. Khan personally blocks a £50 million contract between the Metropolitan Police and Palantir, an AI firm that had helped the force investigate corrupt officers including Wayne Couzens and David Carrick. Source: BBC, Guardian, GB News.
Palantir's UK boss publicly accused Khan of "putting politics above public safety." A senior figure stated that the Mayor was "making the Metropolitan Police fight criminals with their hands tied behind their backs." Source: BBC, GB News.
The same man who has presided over record knife crime, record phone theft and the collapse of stop and search just stripped the Met of the very tool that catches their own corrupt officers. Ask yourself why.
And Now, the Flag.
This is the part most Londoners have not yet fully clocked. Pay attention.
New Year's Eve 2025 into 2026. Sadiq Khan turns the London Eye into the flag of the European Union. During Britain's own New Year fireworks. In the capital of the United Kingdom. The Union Jack? Reduced to a guest appearance. Source: Telegraph, GB News.
GB News commentator Tom Harwood named it for what it was: "A foreign flag before our own."
In response, Khan publicly "joked about declaring independence for London" and openly briefed about Britain rejoining the EU. Source: GB News, Evening Standard.
He has used the phrase "take back control", the slogan of the Brexit campaign he despises, to demand more devolved power for himself in City Hall. Source: https://t.co/6ysxZQxULh official record.
Read this carefully and read it twice. The Mayor of London has flown a foreign flag over the river Thames on New Year's Eve, publicly mused about declaring his city independent from the United Kingdom, and is now reportedly about to be elevated to a peerage and dragged into Starmer's cabinet after the 2026 local elections. Source: Wikipedia, March 2026 reporting.
This is not a politician. This is a project. London is the prize. And the prize is being prepared for someone other than the British people.
The Pattern. Now Look At It Whole.
Step back. Look at the line.
A lawyer who freed Farrakhan, defended terror cases, visited terror suspects in prison, signed letters blaming 7/7 on Britain, and shared platforms nine times with a radical imam.
A mayor who oversaw a 72% rise in knife crime, was officially rebuked for lying about it, and presided over a record 30 teenage murders in a single year.
A tax collector who extracted half a billion pounds from drivers under a scheme his own assessors said does nothing for air quality.
A debtor who broke TfL and made you pay for it through a 71% precept hike.
A culture warrior who pointed a commission at British statues and put an antisemite on it.
A denialist who calls grooming gang victims liars in 2026, the same year Britain finally began saying their names.
A saboteur of policing who blocked the AI contract that catches dirty cops.
A flag flier who lit the London Eye in the colours of a foreign union and floated independence for his own city.
This is not incompetence. Incompetence does not move in one direction for 25 years.
This is a worldview, executed with patience, protected by the press, and rewarded with a knighthood and, if Starmer gets his way, a seat in the Lords.
Final Word.
London is the greatest city in the world. It was that long before Sadiq Khan walked into City Hall. It will be that long after he is dragged out of it.
He inherited a capital that was the envy of Europe. He will leave behind a city more violent, more taxed, more divided, more hostile to its own history and more detached from the country that built it than at any point in living memory.
There is one question that matters now. It is the question every Londoner, every Englishman, every Briton needs to put to themselves before the next ballot is cast.
Whose city is this?
Because it is not theirs.
It never was.
And it never will be.

@SeddSezz A little bit more about Andy Burnham:
Manchester City Council currently saddled with over £1.6 BILLION of debt.
Manchester consistently ranks among the worst cities in the UK for homelessness.
Manchester's failed Congestion Charge Scheme wasted £318 MILLION of taxpayer funds.
@Alexandr4Denman Like all Muslim politicians, Sadiq Khan will protect his Muslim brothers first. His allegiances:
1. Faith first
2. Country of heritage second
3. Family third
4. United Kingdom fourth
It feels like they're clearly trying to provoke us.
How on earth can Mahmood think that what the country wants is MORE 'asylum seekers'.
What we want is for the ones here illegally to be deported.
The country is heartily sick of this hopeless disaster of a government.
