🚨BREAKING: Reform UK has alleged that the National Crime Agency (NCA) has leaked Nigel Farage and Richard Tice's bank statements to the media

[Adam Brooks AKA EssexPR 🇬🇧 @EssexPR]

Omg… this is an unhinged interjection by @KayBurley !

She tells an abuse survivor to remember that Prince Andrew was a war hero ! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Is this normal ?!!!

22 May 2024 - Rishi Sunak called the general election

28 May 2024 - Cayman Islands based hedge fund Quadrature makes a £4m donation to Labour, the largest ever single donation to the party, and one of the biggest in UK political history

30 May 2024 – The “pre-poll reporting period” began, under which all donations over £11,180 had to be declared weekly rather than the usual quarterly schedule

The general election then took place

Labour did not declare the donation until September

Don’t hear much about that do you

@LBC What is the point of these dickheads

[Anglo Futurism Capital LP 🇬🇧🐿️ @RollingHedge]

But the parents who are on benefits DO NOT WORK - so they can - and I can’t stress this next bit enough - LOOK AFTER THEIR OWN KIDS?!?! Wtaf?!

If you were to do this - then surely the people who NEED 30 hrs of free child care would be families with both parents in work who are paying in more than they take out but still close to the margin and feeling the pinch.

These Labour shit-for-brains MPs are so intolerably inept.

Bit rich coming from the guy who:

• took money from women, promising them he could enlarge their breasts through hypnotherapy.

• said he was a spokesman for the Red Cross when he wasn’t.

• wants to tax more people but didn’t pay council tax himself.

Stones in glass houses.

Forget the SW1/Farage drama. This is really serious.

The relevant authorities must urgently investigate these allegations about the security of our electricity grid.

Yet more great work from @ClaireCoutinho 👇 👇

[Andrew Montford @aDissentient]

My sources in NESO confirm that what @ClaireCoutinho is saying is correct.

“Until August 1914 a sensible, law-abiding Englishman could pass through life and hardly notice the existence of the state, beyond the post office and the policeman. He could live where he liked and as he liked. He had no official number or identity card.

He could travel abroad or leave his country for ever without a passport or any sort of official permission. He could exchange his money for any other currency without restriction or limit.

He could buy goods from any country in the world on the same terms as he bought goods at home. For that matter, a foreigner could spend his life in this country without permit and without informing the police.

Unlike the countries of the European continent, the state did not require its citizens to perform military service. An Englishman could enlist, if he chose, in the regular army, the navy, or the territorials. He could also ignore, if he chose, the demands of national defence.

Substantial householders were occasionally called on for jury service. Otherwise, only those helped the state, who wished to do so. The Englishman paid taxes on a modest scale: nearly £200 million in 1913-14, or rather less than 8 per cent of the national income.

The state intervened to prevent the citizen from eating adulterated food or contracting certain infectious diseases. It imposed safety rules in factories, and prevented women, and adult males in some industries, from working excessive hours.

The state saw to it that children received education up to the age of 13. Since 1 January 1909, it provided a meagre pension for the needy over the age of 70. Since 1911, it helped to insure certain classes of workers against sickness and unemployment.

This tendency towards more state action was increasing. Expenditure on the social services had roughly doubled since the Liberals took office in 1905. Still, broadly speaking, the state acted only to help those who could not help themselves. It left the adult citizen alone.”

Sitting down?

Legacy Media increased the term “white supremacy” by 5,296% from 2009-2020.

Violent crimes 2009-2020:

Black on White: 1,162 per 100K Blacks.
White on Black: 38 per 100K Whites.

30X more likely!

Dangers of “white supremacy” narrative is pure propaganda.

Facts.

UK grid costs set to soar even higher. Grid integration costs are already forecast to triple from £8bn to £25bn by 2030/31. Now NESO is asking for another £89bn of grid spending beyond 2030. Why this matters for your bills...A thread 🧵 (1/9)

Inequality economist vs monetary economist. City banker vs City banker.

@garyseconomics, let’s debate.

QE. Inequality. Wealth taxes. Britain's economy, Growth. Raw and unedited.

“The first priority is a wealth tax” says @ZackPolanski because the richest 50 families have more wealth than 34M people.

Sounds pretty wild until you realise that NO economy in history has been able to consistently get the bottom half of the population to hold on to any wealth.

Across the G20 nations, the bottom 50% of the population hold an average of about 2-5% of the wealth in that country. The UK is at 5%.

ZERO large economies in history have sustained above 10% of the wealth held by the bottom 50%. The global average is just 2% of wealth held by the bottom 50%.

This includes the go to “socialist utopia” Nordic countries. In fact, Denmark’s bottom 50% has slightly less than zero wealth - their debts exceed their assets.

Being outraged that the UK’s economy is exactly the same as every other economy in history is foolish.

Is it nice that this seems to be the case in every economic system ever tried - absolutely not. Unfortunately it is however the truth.

On average, men are taller than women in every human population. A relatively small group of athletes can do 200 pushups and millions of people can’t to one. A tiny number of chefs hold all the Michelin stars and millions of restaurants don’t have any. All of this isn’t fair but it’s true.
