As it stands Andy Burnham is going to win the Makerfield seat.
He will then go on to challenge Starmer for leadership.
AND??? It’s just more of the same. Labour are running this country into the ground on a scary scale.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR VOTE.
For the sake of our children, please vote @reformparty_uk
Swallow your ego and think of our children.
We can not continue like this 😢
I had to read this three times before I could believe it was real.
Rotherham. A small town in northern England.
For sixteen years, at least 1,400 children — some as young as eleven — were raped, gang-raped, and trafficked between cities by organized groups of men.
Eleven years old.
Petrol was poured on them so they would stay quiet.
Their families were threatened with death.
Photos were taken and used as blackmail.
The police knew.
The council knew.
The social workers knew.
For sixteen years, not one of them moved.
Why?
Because officers were afraid of being called racist if they acted on what they were seeing.
That was the whole reason.
While children were being sold, adults were protecting their own reputations.
That is the moment something in you breaks.
And here is the part that makes it worse.
The TV networks did not report it. The papers did not chase it.
When the journalist Andrew Norfolk finally broke the story, even he thought maybe 150 girls had been hurt.
The real number was 1,400.
He was staggered.
This should have been the biggest story of the decade. It was not.
The networks looked away. The advertisers preferred safer topics.
The cover-up did not end when the report was published — it continued in the silence of every newsroom that refused to chase it.
Then Elon Musk bought X.
The advertisers fled.
The press declared the platform finished.
X almost did not survive.
But it did.
And on X, the names of those towns started trending.
Rotherham.
Telford.
Rochdale.
Oldham.
Towns the country had been told to forget.
Britain understands itself differently today.
Not because the politicians confessed.
Not because the broadcasters apologized.
Because one platform refused to let it stay buried.
X almost did not survive.
1,400 children almost stayed forgotten.
That is worth saying out loud.
@LeeHarris Stoma and many more spineless politicians are in complete denial of what's taking place. The British public know the truth and will someday soon vote accordingly.
🇬🇧 In 1670, 12 Englishmen REFUSED. 🏴❌
To convict an innocent man.
A London judge tried to break them. He locked them in a Newgate cell for 3 weeks. No food. No water. No light. No fire.
They held the line.
This is the story of Bushel's Case.
On 14 August 1670, soldiers raided a Quaker meeting on Gracechurch Street, London. The Conventicle Act of 1664 had banned non-Anglican worship. The soldiers arrested William Penn, a young Quaker preacher, and his older companion William Mead. The charge: unlawful assembly.
They were taken to the Old Bailey.
12 London merchants were sworn to judge them. The foreman was a merchant named Edward Bushel.
The judge demanded guilty.
The jury returned NOT GUILTY.
The judge refused the verdict. He sent them back.
They returned the same.
And again. Three times.
The judge fined each juror 40 marks in British pound sterling, or imprisonment. They refused to pay. He sent all 12 to Newgate.
3 weeks. No meat. No drink. No fire. No tobacco.
They held the line.
Edward Bushel applied for a writ of habeas corpus. The case came before Chief Justice Sir John Vaughan in the Court of Common Pleas.
In November 1670, Vaughan ruled:
No jury can be punished for its verdict. Ever.
The 12 walked free.
And every jury after them carried the line that 12 London merchants held in 1670.
At the Old Bailey today, their names are carved into the wall.
The stones remember.
They were Englishmen. They held the line in spite of every opposing force.
The British spirit.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
We built the world's freedoms.
Charter by charter. Jury by jury.
12 held the line for us.
Will you help hold the line for the next generation? 👇🙏

This is hilarious. The Daily Mail has revealed that Andy Burnham was jogging at 12.18pm, then he returned home 45 minutes in his VW Golf.
His jog was just a photo op. Why pretend to jog?
It just makes him look fake and untrustworthy. Something the public hate about politics.
Before Anyone Crowns Burnham, Ask Him About The Cover Up.
Andy Burnham arrived in Makerfield this weekend as Labour's saviour. He left Sunday evening having retreated from his own position on Europe within 24 hours and facing a whistleblower's allegation of a cover-up in his own commissioned review.
Start with Europe. Last year Burnham said he hoped in his lifetime to see Britain rejoin the European Union. On Saturday his allies confirmed he stood by that view. On Sunday, facing a backlash in a constituency that voted 65 percent to Leave, his spokesman insisted he would not be standing on a national manifesto and would focus on local issues. A position held on Saturday abandoned by Sunday in a seat where Reform will put his own words on their leaflets. The voters of Makerfield will draw their own conclusions about a politician who says what the room wants to hear.
Then there is Maggie Oliver. Oliver is not a political opponent. She is a whistleblower who spent sixteen years in Greater Manchester Police, resigned over its handling of the Rochdale abuse ring, and won a judicial review against successive governments for failing to implement the recommendations of the Jay inquiry. Her charge against Burnham is specific and serious.
The fourth part of Burnham's own commissioned review into child sexual exploitation in Greater Manchester was, in her words, a cover-up. A paper exercise. The two independent reviewers who had spent six years scrutinising Greater Manchester Police resigned because they were blocked from accessing documents and speaking to survivors. The final assurance review, published last year, was instead carried out by HMIC. Oliver says it did not speak to a single victim or survivor from the last seven years.
This did not happen before Burnham became Mayor. It happened between 2019 and 2025, under his watch, in his name, with his authority. The review was meant to provide assurance that things had improved. Oliver's verdict is that it provided cover instead.
Burnham commissioned the earlier reviews. That credit has been extended to him repeatedly and fairly. But commissioning accountability is not the same as delivering it. The final review, the one that was supposed to confirm whether the recommendations had been implemented and whether victims were safer, is the one Oliver describes as a paper exercise that blocked the people best placed to scrutinise it.
The mayoralty has given Burnham something Westminster could not. Distance from scrutiny. Regional media is a shadow of its former self. When things go wrong a Mayor can blame the government. When things go right he takes the credit. The reputation for accountability on child sexual exploitation that Burnham has built over eight years rests almost entirely on the first three reviews. The fourth, the one that was supposed to confirm whether the changes had actually been made, is the one Oliver describes as a cover-up. The reputation and the reality, on the evidence of the person who knows most about both, do not match.
Burnham may yet win Makerfield. His personal popularity is real and may carry him over the line against a Reform candidate who won the local wards 50 percent to Labour's 22 percent. He may yet become Labour leader and Prime Minister.
But the communities he is asking to send him to Westminster are the same communities where these failures happened. They deserve a straight answer about the cover-up allegation before they cast their votes. Not a local manifesto. Not a focus on bus routes. An answer. Maggie Oliver has asked the question. Burnham has not answered it.
"The fourth part of Burnham's own commissioned review into child sexual exploitation in Greater Manchester was, in [Oliver's] words, a cover-up."
Here’s why Britain must STOP ISLAM:
• 6.5% of population
• 90% of terror threat
• 83% of child gang rapes
• 18.2% of prison population
• 63% married to cousins
• 31% genetic disorders from consanguinity
• 6,655 FGM cases
• 48.6% aged 16-64 not employed
• 27.2% in social housing
The numbers don’t lie.
If you are going to the Unite the Kingdom march today.
Do not wear a face mask.
Do not get drunk.
Do not rise to any provocateurs.
Do not be rude to the Police.
Show these charlatans in power that we the people have had enough. Do that by proving their labels wrong.
Stand up, be counted.
The MET release pictures of two far right terrorists heading to the UTK protest.
Starmer said "These people are peddling hatred and division."
Hilda said to Joan "Are we there yet, my hips givin me gip"
When considering Andy Burnham as prime minister.. just remember his wife always seems to be perfectly placed to gain from any of his projects, firstly she was connected to the company that marketed all the failed clean air zone in Manchester, and now she sits on the board of Be.Ev,
The car electric charging company that is winning contracts all over Manchester..
Cronyism at its finest..
This Government is entirely wrong to ban foreign commentators from speaking at Robinson’s rally on Saturday
I will be formally challenging the Home Office, again, on the decision to prevent these individuals from entering.
I won’t be there myself, but many patriots will be and they deserve to hear lawful views in order to decide for themselves if they agree or not.
That is free speech.
Islamist extremists are personally welcomed by the Prime Minister, yet this group is banned.
It stinks.
Starmer has just admitted he banned me and other commentators from traveling to the UK because we would “set back communities.” Yet mass third-world migration doesn’t bother him as it only sets back the one community he doesn’t give a rat’s ass about: the White native population.
Dear @Keir_Starmer
How’s the term “Far Right” working out for you today??
The truth always outs and good always presides over evil.
We will win this battle. You however are going to hell in a handcart 😈
🚨OUTRAGE AS LABOUR MINISTER ENSURES MIGRANT RAPIST DOES NOT GET LONGER SENTENCE
WOW. This is a new low, even for them
Ellie Reeves MP, SISTER of RACHEL REEVES, appointed as SOLICITOR GENERAL by KEIR STARMER
MONSTER Ahmad Mulakhil an illegal migrant from Afghanistan raped a TWELVE YEAR OLD GIRL in Nuneaton last year and filmed the entire attack as a trophy
Shadow Home Office minister Alicia Kearns urged ministers to argue the sentence was too short and should be REVIEWED but Labour Minister Ellie Reeves said NO
Absolutely disgraceful
I must say I am *shocked* at how many of the highly ‘virtuous and kind’ left wing media and establishment politicians have revealed they view living near asylum seekers is a “punishment”.
Whoever would have thought!
Gary MacArthur gave 15 years of his life to Sainsbury’s in West Wickham, south-east London.
He wasn’t some troublemaker.
He was the worker who stayed late to make female colleagues feel safer.
The worker who performed CPR on the store’s only security guard after he suffered a suspected stroke.
The worker who had already previously LOST TEETH after being punched by a thief while trying to protect the store.
But after tackling an allegedly aggressive repeat offender known for targeting the branch and stealing bottles of Moët, Bollinger and Veuve Clicquot Sainsbury’s sacked him for gross misconduct.
This was after colleagues screamed there was an “aggressive Champagne thief” in the store.
According to reports, the shoplifter later smashed bottles and hurled them at staff.
Yet Gary MacArthur a man who dedicated 15 years of loyalty, protected colleagues and even helped save a life that same day — was told he should have acted only as a “visual deterrent.”
Absolutely disgusting.
Supermarket workers are being punched, threatened, abused and terrorised by repeat shoplifters on a daily basis… yet the staff who actually step in to protect colleagues and customers are the ones losing their jobs.
Gary MacArthur at Sainsbury’s.
Walker Smith at Waitrose.
Sean Egan at Morrisons.
Gavin Ramsay at Asda.
Decades of loyalty thrown away because they refused to stand by while thieves ran riot.
What kind of country are we becoming where the people trying to protect others lose everything… while the criminals walk straight back out onto the streets?
UNBELIEVABLE: The new Green party deputy-leader Rachel Millward has objected to housing asylum seekers in her constituency, citing safety concerns.
It seems the Greens want mass migration but not on their doorstep
Just like Labour’s policies of let’s change things as it suits us.
Just send them all back, problem solved.
But they won’t say that because it will cost them their Muslim Voters.
Shameless hypocrisy, it really is.
I think this is perhaps one of the greatest policies ever from Reform.
You’re a woke Green leftie who thinks we need to take in every criminal migrant possible? Well @ZiaYusufUK will put them in your back garden.
Enjoy the consequences of your actions!
