@RichardBurgon Talking out your ass: renewables are neither cheap or sustainable which is why you have the most expensive energy on the planet

[Obi Wan Satoshi @fixer69]

@RachelReevesMP Rachel from accounts showing how ignorant she is again! 80% of this figure is because she state got bigger and that is neither good or sustainable. The rest is largely the AI bubble. More importantly construction is down (again)

[Bernie @Artemisfornow]

Egh … Labour will be fawning over growth news today so let’s put it into perspective.

look what’s driving it. Spending on AI and defence.

2 industries employing around 312,000 people between them, less than 1% of Britain’s workforce. And celebrating the growth of Ai, designed to replace human labour, is like turkeys voting for Christmas.

Only the few are seeing growth.

[Obi Wan Satoshi @fixer69]

@mgshanks So with a solution that has been unable to sustain itself at any point in the last 20 years, resulting in the most expensive electricity in the developed world, the labour plan is to do more of the same? You can’t despise @UKLabour enough. #Englandhasfallen

@EdwardJDavey Please don’t turn this into one of your cunning stunts. Ethnic English people have only ever been white because they are descended from Anglo Saxons, Norse, Normans, Romans and Celts who were all white.

Politicians are praising Russell Brand's victims.
Sammy Woodhouse suffered at the hands of one of the worst Rotherham Grooming Gangs.
The Gang was reported to the police in 2002 by Home Office investigator Adele Weir.
The police took no action against the gang but forced Ms Weir to go on a diversity course.
Sammy applied for compensation in 2017 which was rejected until her lawyer stated the obvious.
Those politicians are all lying, two tier, hypocritical scum.

Yes it’s true … British tax payers are going to be forced to bail out the National grid.

Just so you know the ‘National Grid’ isn’t owned by us. Er no….

It’s a privately owned company with international shareholders, with almost £49 BILLION of debt, forecast to reach £60–70 BILLION by 2031.

The massive costs of upgrading the grid including financing costs and shareholder returns (obvs) , is paid through increasing OUR energy bills.

Much of this investment is because of the Government’s Net Zero targets.

And if it gets into serious financial trouble, the law even allows government financial support (paid for by taxpayers)

It’s a bloody brilliant private investment where the investors never lose. And ordinary people always pay.

Now watch what they do with nature.

Engaging. Enriching. Unmissable. Three adjectives, one alliteration, and no teachers.

The number of teachers in England's state schools has fallen two years running. The promise was 6,500 and they have managed 70 per cent of it, after quietly rewriting what counts as a new teacher and changing how the target is tracked. Four thousand vacancies. Secondary recruitment missed in nine of the last ten years.

Now the file on the last one, since the department hopes you have forgotten her.

Twenty per cent VAT on private school fees. More than a hundred independent schools shut since, well past her own forecast, and the policy is still in the courts.

Ofsted's one word grades scrapped and replaced with a report card framework the sector called flawed before it had even bedded in.

Pay awards she half funded and left schools to find the rest of.

A Schools Act that academy leaders said stripped their freedoms, with qualified teacher status imposed on them by statute.

The 16 to 19 bursary frozen at £160 million since 2011. Down more than eighty per cent in real terms.

A curriculum review that pushes the actual change to 2028 and the exams to 2029, because nothing in this trade is ever delivered on the watch of the person who announced it.

And the equalities brief she kept. The Supreme Court said sex in the Equality Act means biological sex. She then sat on the guidance, reportedly through the local elections in case it shifted votes, and laid it before Parliament on 21 May only once the pressure got too much. A hundred and four MPs signed an early day motion against it. It went through anyway.

Her reward was Women and Equalities. Powell has been in the chair four months. Now comes the reform.

Teachers underneath are asking for staff and pay. The department has sent them an adjective.

[Felicity Campbell @feli_campbell]

643 people sent me a DM yesterday about my post exposing how Andy Burnham’s Manchester council machine secretly intercepts emails from the public.

I believe this new revelation is going to trigger an even bigger shockwave.

Manchester City Council is currently fighting tooth and nail to keep a massive urban regeneration contract hidden from taxpayers.

The corporate partner is a Hong Kong-based developer called Far East Consortium. The funding is a staggering £120 million of public money, including £34.1 million handed over directly by Burnham’s combined authority.

Here is the specific detail that exposes the absolute arrogance of the modern political class.

When a local resident filed a request to read the document, the Chinese developer actually consented to its publication. It was the British council that intervened, heavily redacted the contract, and officially branded the taxpayer’s request for basic transparency as "manifestly unreasonable."

We are operating in a geopolitical environment where foreign powers routinely use infrastructure and property investment to build leverage inside Western cities.

Yet local Labour authorities are handing nine-figure sums of public wealth to Chinese-linked conglomerates, while deploying the full weight of their legal departments to keep British citizens in the dark.

They are perfectly comfortable outsourcing the regeneration of a major UK city to foreign capital. They are just terrified of the people funding the project ever seeing the actual terms.

Hamas released a video showing them digging up Gaza’s water pipes and electricity lines—to turn them into rockets.

[Darren Grimes @darrengrimes]

Burnham's government is spending your money in court to stop you finding out what foreign criminals have done in this country.

The data watchdog said publish. Twice.

Labour said no.

Half of Britain thinks it's a cover-up. Hard to argue with them, isn't it?

[Obi Wan Satoshi @fixer69]

@RichardBurgon Oust Hamas. Although I am unclear what that has to do with Leeds.

[Felicity Campbell @feli_campbell]

When I posted yesterday about Andy Burnham’s political machine secretly intercepting public emails to protect his Abu Dhabi property deals, my inbox was flooded by people thanking me for finally calling out what goes on in Manchester.

Well, I woke up this morning and looked at the latest financial disclosures coming out of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, and the rabbit hole just got so much darker.

Burnham's authority has been caught funnelling nearly £1,000,000 of taxpayer money to completely anonymous beneficiaries in a series of secret payments.

They paid out £83,000 in rent to a hidden landlord. They handed out thousands in anonymous "consultancy fees." Worst of all, they gave a £210,000 capital grant to a property developer and completely redacted the name from the public ledger.

When journalists finally confronted them, the authority claimed hiding the £210,000 developer payout was just a "human error" and blamed the rest of the secrecy on data protection laws.

Look at the terrifying double standard at play here.

If a working citizen misfiles a tax return by fifty pounds or makes a mistake on a local form, the state will investigate their entire life, apply ruthless penalty fines, and threaten them with court.

But when Burnham's regional authority hands a fifth of a million pounds of public cash to an anonymous property developer, they simply shrug and call it a clerical typo.

This is exactly how the modern British political cartel operates. They use the language of bureaucracy and data protection as a legal shield to funnel public wealth to private, hidden corporate interests.

I am sorry, but they are not governing a city. They are running a shadow ledger with your money, and they are terrified of the public finding out who is actually cashing the checks.

@labourlewis There are only wards for genders that exist. Not complicated. The NHS does not need to do more work for make believe. You have already financially and morally bankrupted the country

[The English Crusader @andrewc44104127]

🚨 MAKE SURE YOU READ THIS!!!

🇬🇧 “YOU ARE MY ENEMY.” — VETERAN ALLEGES THESE WORDS WERE SPOKEN BY A LABOUR MP. IF TRUE, IS THIS ACCEPTABLE?

If true, I am absolutely shocked and disgusted to read the account of how Kevin Gray, a military veteran and the newly appointed Chairman of Reform UK Blackpool North and Fleetwood, says he was treated by Labour MP Lorraine Beavers.

According to Kevin, he was approached by the MP while proudly wearing his Northern Ireland service medal.

He says she angrily confronted him over his involvement with Reform UK, using words including “Racist”, “Bigot”, “Fascist” and “Trumpism”.

Despite this, Kevin says he remained calm and extended an olive branch, asking:

“Can we get a coffee sometime without alcohol? I am not your enemy.”

Her alleged response?

“YOU ARE MY ENEMY.”

Let that sink in.

If Kevin’s account is accurate, a veteran wearing his service medal offered a civil conversation to his elected Member of Parliament, only to allegedly be told that he was her enemy.

Is this really the standard of behaviour we should expect from someone elected to represent ALL constituents, regardless of their political beliefs?

On Sunday, I had the privilege of laying a wreath at Blackpool Cenotaph as Reform UK’s Group Leader.

Earlier that morning, I stood alongside my fellow ward councillor, Shaun Brookes, who represents Labour. We put politics aside, as any decent elected representative should.

At the Cenotaph, I also spoke respectfully with the Labour MP for Blackpool South, the Labour Leader of Blackpool Council and the Leader of the Conservative Group.

Different political parties. Different opinions. But mutual respect and dignity throughout.

That is what Remembrance should be about.

We do not have to agree politically to treat one another with basic human decency.

Kevin served his country. He has every right to hold political opinions, join a democratic political party and participate in public life without being subjected to personal hostility.

And frankly, whether someone is a veteran or not, no constituent should be treated as an enemy simply because they vote differently.

I sincerely hope Lorraine Beavers MP reflects on Kevin’s account and takes the opportunity to respond.

Because public office comes with responsibility. You represent your constituents — not just those who agree with you.

We should be setting an example of tolerance, dignity and respect, particularly during Remembrance.

Political disagreement is democracy. Personal hostility is not leadership.

Kevin, thank you for your service. You have my respect and support. 🇬🇧

Assuming this account is correct, she should apologise immediately!

Lest We Forget. 🌺
