@SimonPartridge @donmcgowan And we wonder why the country’s gone to the dogs.

@GerwatVirginia Not a good time for that Pimms?

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

@MikeDiplockre I’ll stay with the SDP. The alternative is to give up on UK politics altogether à la Peter Hitchens.

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

@AllisonPearson Not missed enough. The mainstream media chose to promote a dustbin as a candidate in the Clacton by election. Unbelievable media coverage for a silly joke. The mess this country is in, it’s appalling government, needs to be taken seriously.

@DawnButlerBrent It’s not investment, it’s a subsidy or grant.

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

@Peter88902568 A fashion statement?

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

@NationalReilly Things may be too far gone for anything. Polarising parties led by tin pot buffoons seems to be the only thing on offer. The SDP may be small but William stood out in our political world.

Did the Home Office forget to say something about machete wielding in those recent leaflets?

Two men charged after 'machete brawl' in city centre left three people in hospital https://t.co/GreMK6eMdz

Today, our leader, William Clouston, has resigned as leader.

When he took over in 2018, we had 73 members.

He has taken us from death’s door to the most serious political force in Britain without an MP.

A man of composure, competence and vision, the SDP couldn’t have asked for a better leader.

William, thank you. 🇬🇧

@BLAIMGame That’s why we need warming. Brings the heating bills down.

@TheSkepticWiz Atheism is easy. You are your own God. Accountable only to yourself.

Religion demands you willing,y conform yourself to the ultimate good. That’s not easy.

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

The person who led me to my political home. To say he’s a hard act to follow is a huge understatement. But the New Declaration is every bit as important a blueprint for reuniting the country and securing our children’s future as it was in 2018.

[William Clouston SDP @WilliamClouston]

I have resigned as leader of the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

Thanks to all that have given me support, trust and kindness since 2018.

@Atomsmade Compared to atheist regimes like Communist China and Stalin’s Russia, Christians are mere amateurs.

@CapelLofft Turning sex from the means for sustaining the race into a no consequences, recreational activity has played a big part here. The former carried a burden of responsibility. The latter makes anything acceptable.
But we are worse off as a consequence.

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

@WilliamClouston Very sad news. I joined the party on the back of the New Declaration in 2019 and soon realised I’d found my political home. The SDP’s philosophy and its policies are part of William’s immense legacy. It is for others to build on this. More than ever Britain needs the SDP.

@KhadijaKhan__ @bbcsml Progressive secularism is what has caused most of this country’s problems. Rechristianising is necessary.

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

@CharlotteCGill Where’s the Campaign for Plain English when you need them?

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

@RogerHallamCS21 Make a good confession. Make peace with your maker.

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

@snowleopardess Well being a Green Party member would certainly cover it.

[Ian Grattidge @grattidgei]

This is hardly a surprise. Why would anyone think that the French authorities are motivated to keep huge numbers of illegals and in their country?
If we wish to deter the boats we must tackle it ourselves. Sadly it’s clear that this government lacks the will to do so.

🚨 SHOCK EXPOSÉ: British reporter sneaks onto migrant dinghy and catches French police GIVING FREE TAXI RIDES to people-smugglers back to their camps so they can keep flooding Britain!

Christian Drogan spent weeks undercover in the lawless Calais camps, posing as a fugitive British crook. He boarded a packed inflatable with dozens of others, filming every grim second of the seven-hour nightmare crossing.

French gendarmes pulled up mid-Channel, warned the boat the seas ahead were “very dangerous”, and offered anyone a lift back to shore. The ONLY ones who jumped at the chance? The four smugglers running the operation. Police cheerfully dropped them straight back on the beach to organise the next wave of illegal trips!

Unbelievable!

Drogan later said: “I rolled the dice with my life for this investigation, and its findings have only cemented my scepticism towards the establishment.”

TalkTV’s Isabel Oakeshott added: “There is a very good reason no reporter has ever attempted such a mission before: because it is both extraordinarily difficult, and extraordinarily dangerous.”

Border Force eventually picked them up in UK waters. One officer even told Drogan: “You’re on the wrong boat.”

This is the reality the authorities don’t want you seeing.

Great work!
