Remember this chart on Xmas Day! @sajidjavid@CMO_England as with all predictions aimed at supporting the imposition of restrictions it is a chart of DOOM! Reality, already doubling is slowing! 1m a day total stupidity!
Ed Miliband promised to cut energy bills by £300.
Today the energy price cap increases again and bills are now £300 HIGHER than when Labour took office.
And Andy Burnham wants to reward Ed's failure by promoting him to Chancellor.
WHAT? … The UK Treasury REMOVED numeracy tests, so they could hire more ethnic minorities?
Wtf have I just read? Firstly it’s incredibly racist and secondly .. I think being able to fucking add up is fundamental for working in the fucking Treasury!
Seriously 🤡
@sotontimes@HantsPolice Now these officers who brutally assaulted Matt Styler need to be arrested and charged @policeconduct@CPSUK If not, you are saying police can brutally assault citizens for no reason and get away with it.
🔺Former soldier Matt Styler cleared of assaulting a police officer during protests in Southampton following the death of Henry Nowak.
Matt Styler, 50, a former Parachute Regiment soldier from Gosport, was found not guilty at Southampton Crown Court after prosecutors said the evidential test had not been met and offered no further evidence.
Judge William Mousley KC formally recorded a verdict of not guilty. Styler had previously denied the allegation and had been held in custody before being granted bail.
Yvette Cooper is Foreign Secretary. She just wired £23 million to UNRWA. This is the same UNRWA that had Hamas tunnels beneath its headquarters. The same UNRWA whose staff were accused of joining the October 7 massacre. The same UNRWA that admitted tunnels ran under its schools.
As Foreign Secretary, Cooper represents Britain abroad. She sets our foreign policy. She decides which regimes we fund and which we isolate. She chose to fund an agency infiltrated by terrorists.
She knows UNRWA cannot keep Hamas out. She knows tunnels were found under its facilities. She knows British money flows into Gaza with no oversight. She restored the funding anyway.
Cooper treats British foreign policy as a charity operation for terror sympathizers. She is not representing British interests. She is funding our enemies and calling it diplomacy.
Yvette Cooper is Foreign Secretary in name only. In practice, she is Hamas's foreign secretary.
@Eddystone506 You keep pumping out the same old Project Fear tripe! There's a good boy!
Suggest you read about all the benefits of Brexit curtesy of @TerraOrBust
If ever I meet a climate change denier, I tell them how the Ice Ages came and went.
It git colder. Then it warmed up again
Of course the climate changes
Always has. Always will.
The true deniers are those who claim it never did and that we must try to stop it changing again. The Climate Catastrophists
In Keir Starmer's final days in office, he's still caving in to the demands of the EU. He spent his premiership plotting to betray Brexit and drag Britain back into the EU. His legacy is one of failure and letting the UK's standing in the world plummet. https://t.co/EldhRCk29R
A devolved Wales has the worst health service not just in the UK but probably all of Europe.
Welsh education standards have plummeted.
Why does Burnham think devolved power improves life except for a parasitic lanyard class?
