Dear Gary Lineker,
You might be having dizzy spells from your high position of virtue signalling about tax bills .
HMRC would allow you to send them more money at any time. 👍‼️
Funny how you argued and won your case NOT to PAY HMRC nearly £5 million quid in an argued tax status .
I would have thought you'd have gladly sent them the extra money 🧐
HMRC said you were a BBC employee and should pay employee rate tax
You claimed you were self employed ..you won ‼️
And paid less tax
You'd have been doing us a solid Gary paying that extra £4.9 million 😘
Anyway Gary , I'm looking forward to seeing more voluntary tax from you
To pretend this country hasn’t worked for forty years is absurd.
To imply no adult under the age of 58 has worked in a functioning economy is preposterous.
I wasn’t born into a basket case. When I was born this country had falling energy prices, 4% economic growth, a booming jobs market, entrepreneurialism in spades, a resurgent capital city, a new prosperity. We were on track for a budget surplus.
We had more or less continuous improvement from the early 80s through to the end of the 2000s.
No politician wants to accept the truth: that things broke in 2008, because that’s embarrassing for both Labour (under whose watch it happened) and the Tories (who failed to get us back up to trend).
It’s a shame that when he won convincingly, he drifted so far to the left and helped to land us in this almighty mess we find ourselves in today. An election now might actually make things worse possibly resulting in a four way coalition. Waiting another two or three years for the Tories to get their act together is probably the best way forward.
A constituent has been stuck on the M25 near Oxted for 8 hours. It is 40 degrees in her car. She has kids with her. She is running out of water. The person from the car in front has been airlifted to hospital with dehydration. Police seem to be saying it’s not their job to give out water.
@SurreyPolice@NationalHways please sort this out urgently.
People need water and some may need evacuation. You have protocols for this situation - please implement them - this is an emergency! 🙏
I remember the summer of 1976. We started each day with a warm bottle of (school) milk that had been left out early in the sunshine. There was a jug of water on the table at lunchtime. Didn’t know what sun block even was, never mind applying it. Somehow, we survived it.
Andy’s ARMY of ‘friends’ until he announces who is getting what job and then the inevitable cuts to the Welfare bill. Let’s see how many friends he has after that.
@LeonardBriscoe3@_benefit_monkey What do “coronal mass ejaculations” have to do with “climate change” caused by humans on Earth (apparently) ? Genuine question. Thanks.
@RupertLowe10@philrickards Believe you me, no one could be happier than me about RR losing her position, but language like this is a very poor example to set as an elected politician. You should hold yourself to higher standards.
Some people may say I retired quite young. I have mixed feelings every day. I sat in Paddington Station this morning at 7.00 watching people mostly on their way to work. I envied them today.
Great to have @SuellaBraverman in the van to chat about our new Women & Motherhood Protection Act.
Reform will go further than any party ever has to protect women in the workplace.
Worst-ever Chancellor Rachel Thieves ( including Lamont) is briefing that Healey was suggesting schools and hospital budgets be cut to pay for defence.
That’s crap.
Abandon Net Zero ( estimated £15-30bn) and we’d have all the bombs and bullets required.
We owe those who serve the UK the kit to do the job and the loyalty to stand by them when it's done. We are failing on both.
I’ve spent my whole time in government making that case. Number 10 will not listen, so I am resigning as Minister for the Armed Forces.

Even the UN has now admitted its dire climate predictions were false.The Climate alarmists should be held to account. Ed Miliband’s ludicrous Net Zero plans are ruining our economy and making people poorer, colder and less free. Our children are still be indoctrinated in school !
They took your food apart and sold it back to you, piece by piece, at a markup.
They skimmed the cream off the milk and sold it back as a separate product.
They trimmed the fat off the meat, sold the lean as premium, and rendered the fat into the base of the processed food you bought to replace the meal.
They took the yolk out of the egg and sold you a carton of whites with a photograph of an athlete on it.
They boiled the bone out of the stock and sold you a collagen sachet with a picture of someone meditating.
They took the butter off the bread and sold you a spread emulsified from oil they extracted with a petroleum solvent.
They took the offal off the plate, the part your great-grandmother prized, and ground it into pet food, then sold you a multivitamin containing synthetic copies of what the offal gave away for free.
Every single thing they removed, they sold back to you, in a more expensive and less nourishing form.
Your great-grandmother bought a whole animal and wasted none of it.
You buy the same animal, in fourteen separate packets, at four times the price, and you have been trained to call that choice.
Congrats to the duplicitous Andy Burnham on making a success of being a landlord ( what would his lefty mates say? ) having bought a 2-bedroomed flat in London 20 years ago , seeing it double in value to £500K and now being rented out for a handy £3K-3.5K.
Where Burnham was fortunate and other landlords weren’t, is that for years the interest on his mortgage was paid through his expenses because he was an MP.
But he took an even bigger advantage by renting out his place in Kennington and instead rented a place nearby and sent the whole bill to the taxpayer.
That’s now illegal but basically he took advantage of an Xs racket in Parliament making him, in my view, unsuitable to be an MP.
He’s a creep and he wants to bring that thought process to Downing Street.
The more you hear of Burnham the more you know the good people of Makerfield won’t be voting for him.
Scorching weather, but great for campaigning.
It has been a busy bank holiday weekend, but the reception has been fantastic.
Thank you to everyone who came out to support us. Enjoy the long weekend.
