Hi, I'm Katy. I was born in the winter of discontent and honestly I feel reborn.

So how did a property adviser end up posting about Andy Burnham and Abu Dhabi?

All we wanted was a planning permission.

It took Manchester City Council over nine years to give us one. In that time Renaker put up about a dozen towers, seven of them around our site.

My client has owned a site on Great Jackson Street in Manchester for 40 years. In October 2017 we started work on planning for 1,037 flats there. We are Manchester born and bred. Friends in London warned us that development in Manchester was "the Wild West". We didn't know how right they were.

We were told we had to provide £28.8m of affordable housing. So we asked what Renaker's Deansgate Square next door had paid. The answer:- Nothing. Zero. Nada. Zip. 1,508 flats and no section 106 agreement at all. Nobody at Manchester City Council could explain why. On four Renaker schemes MCC has "lost" the viability files.

We were told we had to pay just over £1m as an upfront payment. Exactly £1,000 per flat. Across 20 Renaker towers and 8,543 homes, Manchester City Council took just £487,000. That is £57 a home.

So we kept looking. We found £598m of public loans from Andy Burnham's GMCA to Renaker. Add in the other public sources and it is £868m, to companies controlled by one man. None of these loans were ever publicised and the loan terms remain almost entirely hidden.

It took nearly four years just to get to the planning committee. Over nine years on, nothing is built.

We then asked MCC for permission to knock down our own empty warehouses. It refused, giving ten flimsy reasons. So off to court we went. In January 2026 a High Court judge rejected all ten and held that MCC had "acted unreasonably". That case cost MCC over £200,000 of public money. And for what?

My client also owns the main Royal Mail depot on Oldham Road. MCC has since told us that land sits inside its joint venture with Far East Consortium. It has kept over a third of that agreement hidden, including the plan, and won't show it to us. Why?

So we carried on asking questions.

Then they blocked my emails.

We never set out to investigate anyone. We asked one question, got no answer, and kept digging.

We still are.

@50sWOWPembsCarm @JChimirie66677 Whilst most things proposed have no basis in law, a large majority and weak resistance changes our constitution week after week.

Example

Blair - treason.
Mandleson.

Resistance isn't futile. Letter to an MP, signature on a petition, wastes their precious plotting time x

[Katy @flewthecoopuk]

Our coup was a walk over, signing us back up to the madness with minimal fuss, maximum costs.

Im praying for the Polish people. They saw, in toxic town at the time, we voted to leave. They still thrived.
They see our weasel, and theirs.

We gave them the blueprint.

Polexit!!

W polskim sporze o Trybunał Konstytucyjny padło w ostatnich dniach sformułowanie, które powinno zatrzymać każdego, kto choć trochę szanuje ideę państwa prawnego: „stan wyższej konieczności konstytucyjnej”. Brzmi poważnie, niemal jak instytucja konstytucyjna. Problem w tym, że nią nie jest.
Nie wynika z Konstytucji, nie wynika z żadnej ustawy, nie jest też ugruntowanym zwyczajem konstytucyjnym. To konstrukcja doktrynalna, która może mieć wartość na akademickim seminarium, ale nie może być podstawą działania organów władzy publicznej. Art. 7 Konstytucji jest pod tym względem jednoznaczny: organy władzy publicznej działają na podstawie i w granicach prawa. Nie na podstawie „konieczności”, nawet jeśli ktoś uzna ją za wyższą i konstytucyjną.
Tymczasem 30 października 2026 r. doszło do sytuacji, w której sędzia TK Anna Korwin – Piotrowska wydała zarządzenia o przerwie w czynnościach służbowych Prezesa i Wiceprezesa TK, powołując się właśnie na taką konieczność. Budynek został zabezpieczony przez policję, dotychczasowe kierownictwo nie zostało wpuszczone. Formalnie powołano się https://t.co/chgE1EV6lr. na przepisy prawa o ustroju sądów powszechnych, które jednak nie dają kompetencji do takiego działania wobec organów Trybunału.
Reakcje najwyższych organów sądowych były klarowne. Pierwszy Prezes Sądu Najwyższego Zbigniew Kapiński w oficjalnym oświadczeniu wyraził „najwyższe oburzenie i stanowczy sprzeciw”. Wskazał, że nadanie czynności formy zarządzenia nie legalizuje przekroczenia lub uzurpacji kompetencji, a zdarzenia mają charakter bezprecedensowy i budzą zasadnicze zastrzeżenia co do zgodności z fundamentalnymi zasadami ustroju. Prezes Naczelnego Sądu Administracyjnego Jacek Chlebny stwierdził wprost, że granice zostały przekroczone, a działania budzą zasadnicze zastrzeżenia co do ich zgodności z zasadami państwa prawa. Obaj podkreślili to samo: niezależność Trybunału nie może być podporządkowana doraźnym decyzjom ani demonstracji siły.
Rzecznik Praw Obywatelskich określiła „stan wyższej konieczności konstytucyjnej” jako pogląd pozaprawny. Prezes Naczelnej Rady Adwokackiej ocenił, że w świetle prawa prezesem pozostaje Święczkowski, a działania Korwin-Piotrowskiej nie mają podstawy prawnej.
Helsińska Fundacja Praw Człowieka stwierdziła, że nie dostrzega wyraźnych podstaw prawnych, by sędzia o najdłuższym stażu mogła wydać taką decyzję, a powoływanie się na tę konstrukcję oznacza przyznanie braku niebudzącej wątpliwości podstawy.
Z prawnego punktu widzenia konsekwencja jest prosta. Skoro zarządzenia o „przerwie” nie mają skutecznej podstawy w obowiązującym prawie, to nie mogą wywołać skutku w postaci utraty funkcji. Bogdan Święczkowski formalnie nadal jest Prezesem Trybunału Konstytucyjnego. To, kto aktualnie kontroluje budynek i serwery, to kwestia faktu, a nie prawa. Państwo prawne nie funkcjonuje jednak na zasadzie „kto ma policję, ten ma rację”.
Historia polskich kryzysów konstytucyjnych uczy, że łatwo jest przekroczyć granicę, trudniej jest ją potem przywrócić. Dziś „stan wyższej konieczności” ma służyć „uratowaniu Trybunału”. Jutro ktoś inny może uznać, że wyższa konieczność wymaga zawieszenia kogoś innego. A prawo, które przestaje obowiązywać wtedy, gdy „trzeba coś zrobić”, przestaje być prawem. Staje się narzędziem. I to jest sedno problemu, niezależnie od tego, po której stronie barykady się stoi.

Slugs drink-drown in guinness. AI says the fact is they lose their footing and fall in.

[Rosie Duffield MP @RosieDuffield1]

I want you all to know this.
There are 650 MPs in Parliament. Yet the one MP chosen by @UKLabour to Chair the Bill Committee for the controversial, dangerous and dismally bad draft legislation, the Conversion Practices Bill, is Alex Barros-Curtis. Until July 2024, when Alex was given a very safe Labour seat in Cardiff, he was the Head of the Labour Party's Governance and Legal Unit in London. This was a department set up to investigate complaints against members of the Labour Party. Complaints of antisemitism, Islamophobia, abuse, and of course latterly, mostly women holding legally-protected 'Gender Critical' (sex realist) beliefs. Alex oversaw the investigation of hundreds of members who liked or tweeted gender critical or feminist views. I was one of them. He investigated me, as a sitting Labour MP, for 13 months.
13 months to 'investigate' one like of one tweet. I had a great lawyer, one of the names we're all now familiar with, and I had to crowdfund to pay for his (excellent) work.
They first tried in 2020. But the screenshots crudely attached to that passive aggressive, threatening-sounding email from LP admin staff were so risible that I replied that it was too ridiculous for me to waste my precious time on. They left it. Years of Starmer bumbling and stuttering through interviews about whether he had spoken to me, whether he supported me, etc followed. My feminist sins continued apace.
And then I 'liked' a tweet by my GC comedian friend @Glinner. He had mocked Eddie'Suzy' for comparing his choice to wear traditional women's clothing, fake plastic breasts and nails, to those being persecuted by the Nazis during WWII. I found his sarcasm, as a award-winning comedy writer in the face of such offensive narcissism amusing and so 'liked' it. I found it absurd and obscene that Izzard, an extremely privileged and wealthy man, who openly changed his 'gender' at will, should write himself into history falseley as someone who would have been oppressed due to a circumstance beyond his control. We all know the groups who were tortured, starved and killed...
There is obviously more to my story, I will tell it all, it's just one chapter of the years of spiteful abusive and bullying practices meted out to me by the Labour Party managers. Not those who'd achieved office on merit, or even unexpectedly, but those in the club, often having failed to be elected themselves.
So Barros-Curtis who we were repeatedly told led 'the many *independent* inquiries into women members and MPs like me, now often stands as a trans-rights activist on the Labour backbenches. He has also been gifted the role of Chair of this Committee and is a huge supporter of this Bill. And I am not a part of the Bill Committee, although plenty of TRA MPs are. Does that sound like the democratic scrutiny of legislation to you?

MY FORECAST FOR THE UK. A WARNING FROM FRANCE. 🇬🇧

France is the gateway to Britain. Our closest major continental neighbour, a major trading partner and a country through which vast numbers of people and goods pass on their way to the UK.

That makes France a powerful indicator of what could happen here next.

It’s like watching history unfold, but in real time.

Truth be told, I believe France is losing its national identity.

In many of the places I’ve visited, France simply doesn’t feel French anymore.

And I fear that in another ten years, another generation, the changes we’re witnessing could become irreversible.

Britain needs to act NOW.

Not tomorrow. Not next week. NOW.

Minor political disagreements need putting aside because, in my opinion, we’re approaching a different kind of conflict.

Not one fought with conventional weapons, but one involving demographics, birth rates, immigration, borders and national identity.

The future of a country is shaped not just by its history, but by the decisions its people make today.

Secure our borders.
Stop illegal immigration.
Demand political accountability.
Protect our national identity.

The clocks went back an hour today.

I wish we could turn them back twenty years.

Call this my Rasputin post. After everything I’ve witnessed, I am more convinced than ever that Britain is approaching a crossroads.

And the longer we refuse to confront difficult questions, the fewer choices we’ll have.

Apologies for a negative post on a Sunday.

I’m about to board a plane in a storm, but frankly, it’s the storm I see gathering back home that worries me more.

My final message is simple: don’t just read this, shake your head and carry on with your Sunday. Ask questions. Challenge your representatives. Demand answers. Make your voice heard, peacefully and democratically.

Because if we leave the decisions about Britain’s future to everyone but ourselves, we cannot complain when we don’t recognise the country we’ve become.

The time to take responsibility for our future is now.

I’m just the guy who films things and shows you what’s actually happening, it’s up to you to make an informed judgement

Pls RT: When a doctor's error causes the needless deaths of our children or loved one it changes our lives forever.

When they lie, falsify medical records & cover up, it destroys our family life, as we have to fight for truth, justice, accountability & learning.

@willcpowell Thinking of you all, hope you are okay xxx

Oh these communists. Going to start to have to say mismis information. And hyperhyper inflation.
