@Councillorsuzie Manchester City Council have just awarded a 4.7m contract to a EV company.........

Who is the MD of this EV company......Andy Burnhams wife.....what a coincidence!

Remember Makerfield, Burnham is just the same as all the other inept Labour MPs!

[Flouncer @fancyflouncer]

@donmcgowan It most certainly does. As a retired cop I know that for sure. It’s trained into you & has become the culture. Disproportionate PSD investigations has put the fear of god into all officers.

@Heccles94 Did you feel the same after Sadiq Khan tweeted George Floyd death had ‘rightly ignited fury’ and people were rioting & looting?

[Julia Hartley-Brewer @JuliaHB1]

Labour folk accusing @Nigel_Farage and Reform of exploiting Henry Nowak's murder for political gain really need to take a long hard look in the mirror.

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.

George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.

Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.

And we all know why.

During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.

They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.

And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.

This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.

This needs to stop.

This is going to run until the next election, isn’t it 😁

Ed Davey has written to Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson demanding she WITHDRAW official EHRC guidance protecting female-only spaces in toilets and changing rooms.

Let that land.

The Equalities and Human Rights Commission — a statutory body — has produced legally grounded guidance telling employers and public bodies that biological men should not access women’s single-sex spaces.

This is not opinion.
This is not politics.
This is the settled legal position following the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on the meaning of “woman” under the Equality Act.

And Ed Davey wants it gone.

His stated reason?

The guidance is not “compatible with long-standing British values.”

British values.

He used those words to argue AGAINST protecting women’s single-sex spaces.

The same Liberal Democrats who lecture the country about tolerance, inclusion and human rights are now lobbying a Labour minister to tear up statutory guidance that protects every woman in Britain who walks into a changing room, a refuge or a hospital ward.

This is not a fringe position within the Lib Dems.

Their leader wrote the letter.

The party has chosen its side.

It is not the side of women.

Repost if you think women’s single-sex spaces should be protected.

@labourpress He has been proven to be correct hadn’t he. How many healthy young people who are now vaccine injured regret taking it? We sacrificed our youth for us elderly - so very very wrong!

[Sam Taylor @staylorish]

1/ Something very important is being missed in the Peter Murrell coverage. And it explains why Murrell was able to carry on the embezzlement long after he should have been stopped. And why John Swinney cannot hide behind the “victim of criminality” defence.🧵

When the finance & audit committee &the treasurer & Jo Cherry resigned because they had no access to the books & no answers on missing funds
And Peter was flush with cash
& spending extravagantly
Sturgeon had no suspicion
Today came as a complete shock?

[Kelvin MacKenzie @kelvmackenzie]

Reform 40%. Restore 7%. Burnham 43%. The Sunday Times poll for Survation at Makerfield shows the split right will bring in our most Lefty Prime Minister ever.
Grateful if Nigel Farage and Rupert Lowe would put down their swords and pick up the phone.

[Stuey Beef 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @stuey_beef]

Morrisons just said the quiet part out loud.

Around 100 convenience stores are now on the chopping block.

Hundreds of jobs are at risk.

And the reason given is not “greedy supermarkets”, not “corporate profiteering”, not “Tory austerity”, not any of the slogans Labour spent years throwing around.

It is “significant cost increases resulting from Government policy choices”.

That is corporate-speak for: Labour made it more expensive to employ people, more expensive to operate, and harder to keep marginal stores alive.

This is the basic economic reality the Government pretends does not exist.

You can raise employer costs and call it “fairness”.
You can increase wage mandates and call it “growth”.

You can load more regulation onto businesses and call it “responsibility”.

You can demand lower prices at the till while making every input cost higher behind the scenes.

But eventually the spreadsheet wins.

And when the spreadsheet wins, shops close.

Not the imaginary shops in a Treasury forecast.

Real ones.
Local ones.
The ones people use for milk, bread, prescriptions, newspapers, top-up groceries and last-minute essentials.
The ones staffed by people who do not have the luxury of working from home while lecturing everyone else about “resilience”.

This is the part Labour never wants to own.

Their policies are always sold as compassion.

But the consequences are brutally practical.

A store that was just about viable becomes loss-making.

A worker who was just about employed becomes “at risk”.

A community that had a local shop now has an empty unit with metal shutters.

And then ministers will stand up and blame “global pressures”, “market conditions”, “corporate decisions” or “the legacy we inherited”.

NO.

Morrisons has named the problem directly: government policy choices.

That phrase matters.

Because it means this was not inevitable. It was chosen.

@danielgoyal We are governed by a party with a huge majority who were voted in by only 20% of the electorate

[Flouncer @fancyflouncer]

@MaeveHalligan Fabulous speech. But what was extremely worrying was how few clapped at the end. That spoke volumes

[Flouncer @fancyflouncer]

@hol40900 Cleared my backside. She avoided paying TAX!! You know, that money we mere mortals give to the government so they can hand it out willynilly to others.

[Flouncer @fancyflouncer]

@Anna_Soubry @pearlharbor2020 Everything looks distorted through the bottom of a bottle

[Flouncer @fancyflouncer]

Jesus! What a depressing choice. But it should be Starmer. The country gets the government it deserves after an election. We knew this was going to be a disaster, why are we acting surprised now. This is what the country voted for unfortunately

Why was she not charged interest which is usual in late tax payment?

[Higgy @higgyboson]

I submitted my tax return to HMRC one day late.

I was fined £100. And I didn't even owe them any tax!

Angela Rayner tried to avoid paying £40,000 stamp duty for nearly a year and could have been fined £8,000 by the HMRC after she recently coughed up the money, (shortly after being gifted £50,000 from a refrigeration company for 'Office Expenses').

She wasn't fined a single penny. No fine. No penalty. No comeback whatsoever.

Is it any wonder that us little folk are getting so pissed off with these freeloading, opportunistic, money grabbing, holier than thou, two faced charlatans?

[Chris Rose @ArchRose90]

Zack Polanski has admitted that he failed to pay the correct council tax while living on a houseboat in London.

This is the same lunatic who would increase tax for the rest of us.

It’s always those who preach about paying tax who evade tax. Hypocritical, champagne socialist!
