@louderry His achievements debatable. Frankly honours system all a bit of a grift and not worth getting politically riled by it all. Each tribe rewards its favourites and some very nondescript people rewarded for fuck knows what.

I’m only 19, and do you know what the Islamic Republic would do to me if they arrested me?
First, they would torture me. Then they would force me to confess to things I never did. After that, they would execute me. And before my execution, I would be sexually assaulted by a religious official, because the Islamic Republic believes that girls must lose their virginity before they are executed.
But despite all of this, I will continue fighting for freedom. It’s freedom or death.

The PM’s low-stakes policymaking makes John Major’s Cones Hotline look like the Marshall Plan:

@CarolinejGoode @WasAcop @andyburnham Put like that this is the perfect commemoration. Pointless and destructive. Lives spent and now over.

@Shaeeb51 @ChrisHo03515950 @sarahwhitetruth Apart from the inaccurate location the rest does shine a light on some pretty ghastly behaviour, justified by delusional belief systems. We could redraft the information in that light?

[Edouard @eddularge]

@GBNEWS A pointless tribute to pointless people by more pointless people. Aren’t there any gulags we could starve them on?

[Edouard @eddularge]

@Shaeeb51 @ChrisHo03515950 @sarahwhitetruth But surely the scaremongering is by way of education and enlightenment.

[Edouard @eddularge]

@MaddyViews Fuck you too. And I hope your rabbit croaks and you can’t sell the hutch.

[Edouard @eddularge]

@PippaP22 Exactly. Where is the real PM? It feels surreal.

[Edouard @eddularge]

@BasilTheGreat Where do they dig up these halfwits?

[Edouard @eddularge]

@Shaeeb51 @sarahwhitetruth That’s ok. Not in the Lake District today. But definitely the sort backward thing they’ll bring in the name of Muhammad and his deranged teachings.

[Edouard @eddularge]

@sappholives83 The dogs protect the goats. This thing is well known. And a dog barked when Mohamed was having a tug. Probably.

[Edouard @eddularge]

@UK_Dispatch_ This cunt is utterly out of his depth. This is embarrassing.

[Edouard @eddularge]

@TheCanaryUK @willem_moore_uk Ali Genocide. Priceless wit. So funny I’ve soiled myself and off to change my strides. Lefties are soooo funny.

@Artemisfornow Excellent breakdown. Thank you.

Dear Labour

You literally don’t understand why construction companies aren’t building masses of houses! And why they won’t do what you tell them.

Let me help you.

▪️There aren’t enough builders, bricks, or cement. Businesses forecast years in advance for developments. They can’t ramp up in a year.

▪️Developers have cash flow and budgets, unlike the government they can’t print money and double in size in a year. And you just screwed the economy by raising taxes and minimum wage.

▪️From 2027, imported raw materials like steel and cement face a new carbon taxes of up to 24%. Gained can pretend he’s saving the planet) Developers have no idea what the hit will be. And so cannot build blind.

▪️If housing isn’t financially viable, builders won’t build. Labour is demanding cheap entry level homes. But developers make little profit on these, so little that only building these will mean they can’t pay the wage bill! So they have mixed price developments. Higher priced houses aren’t selling because the economy is wankered (technical term)

▪️The state of the economy means huge job insecurity, why would Developers risk over supplying a market that is stagnant?

▪️New house building and completions are down in many places because over supply will see a collapse in prices and developers would make a loss. It would be insane for a business to plan to make a loss.

▪️ net zero targets have left thousands of finished homes unable to be connected to the grid! Brilliant. Why would house builders risk building and not being able to sell because they can’t get electricity.

Had Labour had any business experience or economic knowledge they would know that councils have to heavily subsidise new developments … but they have no money!

Governments can’t force businesses to harm themselves. It’s an idiotic promise made because you don’t understand how profit works.

You’re welcome

[Edouard @eddularge]

@sabreenaGS Yawno. If it was funny they could do it. Sadly the premise is as funny as dogshit on trainers.

[The Free Speech Union @SpeechUnion]

Another week, another truly mental story.

Birmingham City Council has applied for an injunction that could see patriots who fly the Union Jack from lampposts spend two years in prison.

But this isn’t an isolated case. Oxfordshire County Council has also secured a High Court injunction prohibiting people from flying the Union Jack or St George’s Cross from lampposts.

Threatening people who are proud of their national flag and want to celebrate it is not only an attack on patriotic Brits, but also an assault on freedom of expression.

With prisons already at breaking point and rapists and killers being released early, who on earth thinks this is a good idea?

Patriotism isn’t a crime in Britain — yet. But it looks like it could be soon.

@narindertweets @JeremyVineOn5 Taking a dump.

[Edouard @eddularge]

@NeilForPoole Absolutely. Restore the promise. Not do anything. Just get that banal promise out there.
