[Chris Martz @ChrisMartzWX]

My position on climate change in a nutshell:

1⃣ 𝐇𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝟏𝟕𝟓 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬?

— Yes, but it has been warming since at least 1750. Only since ~1950 or so has there been any potentially significant anthropogenic influence. How can anyone on the alarmist side explain the previous 200 years? What caused the initial warming? What caused the warming between 1910 and 1945, which is ~40% of post-1850 warming, but only ~10% of emissions? So, if natural variability hasn't contributed to any warming since 1850 (which is assumed in the climate models), then you are ignoring that.

2⃣ 𝐈𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐠𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐚𝐧-𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞?

— I think at least 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒 of it has been. I don't know how much exactly because it cannot be measured. Perhaps 25% or 50%. Maybe 75%? Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is in fact a “greenhouse gas” (GHG). All else being equal, adding more of it to the atmosphere should cause at least some warming; that is, ~1°C (~1.8°F) per doubling of its concentration, plus any positive feedbacks that act to amplify it (the Planck feedback, which makes the sum of feedbacks net negative, is already accounted for in the RF2xCO2 calculation).

In theory, this explanation makes sense. It's radiative transfer physics. Some of it is basic math, some of it is more complicated, but it is well-understood. But a challenge in actually attributing GHG emissions to all recent warming is that the natural energy flows in and out of the Earth's climate system cannot be measured with the accuracy and precision needed to ascribe all recent warming to GHGs. The uncertainty on the TOA flux is about 5-10 W/m², which is much larger than the estimated Earth energy imbalance (EEI) allegedly from CO₂ on the order of 0.8–1.2 W/m². What's more, the climate models are artificially tuned such that there can be no natural causes of warming, CO₂ is added, then it's declared that CO₂ is the only cause of global warming since 1850.

3⃣ 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐮𝐫𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞?

— I think that urban sprawl and land use have been significant contributors to local + regional warming trends. Theoretically, this could explain part or even most of the warming globally outside the north polar region, which is mostly rural. We are investigating this in more detail because we are convinced that urban influences have not entirely been removed from the temperature record.

4⃣ 𝐈𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐧𝐮𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐝 𝐨𝐫 𝐮𝐧𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝?

— I don't think so. Alarmists always bring up the “rate of change” argument in threads, but the idea that the recent warming spike is unprecedented in the last few thousand years is based on Michael Mann's infamous tree ring-based “Hockey Stick” graph from MBH (1998, 1999) and the alleged independent look-a-like “verifications” that followed (e.g., PAGES2K). But the attempts to verify it with different proxies all used the same (or a similar) methods that will generate hockey stick-shaped graphs from red noise. The shape of the graphs are largely a statistical artifact, not an accurate representation of global climate variability over the last 2,000 years. I tested this myself using random data. Ex-post correlation screening always produces a hockey stick shape.

5⃣ 𝐈𝐬 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞 𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞?

— Not really. There have been no increases in floods, droughts, thunderstorms + tornadoes + hailstorms, tropical cyclones, winter storms, or wildfires that can be attributed to GHG emissions at a global scale.

There are definitely regional increases and decreases in some of these event types that are within the bounds of natural variability. In the case of certain drought types (e.g., hydrological and ecological) and wildfires that have increased regionally, that is usually attributable to land use change + poor water resource management and poor forest management, respectively. Evidence that GHG forcing has led to an increase in said events is, in my assessment, weak.

You can maybe argue an increase in heatwaves and heavy rainfall since 1950 globally, but the increase in heavy rainfall occurred suddenly around 1990, which is largely an artifact of the change to automation and more efficient rain gauges. There is also a lot of data (usually legitimate extreme Tmax and precipitation values) that get falsely marked as “missing” in the digitized data, which means they get missed in every analysis published in journals and on databases. We are finding that when you look at the original paper forms, most “missing” data aren't actually missing and so we have to go in and correct the records. This is a major problem in the U.S. (in fact, filling all of the missing 20th century rainfall data in Texas in turns an increase in the top 1% of heavy rainfall events per station to a slight negative trend since 1900).

I assume this problem exists outside the U.S., but at this point in time, I can't be too sure. I haven't looked into it yet.

6⃣ 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 “𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬” 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐚𝐧-𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠?

— No, not really.

All global warming, natural or man-made, will result in higher latitudes warming faster than the mid-latitudes and land heating up faster than water (and by extension, the Northern Hemisphere warming faster than the Southern). So, while these changes would be consistent with GHG forcing, it's also consistent with changes in solar activity, cloud cover changes, etc.

The cooling in the stratosphere since the late 1970s is probably due to CO₂. So, at least some of the warming in the troposphere since then is due to CO₂. But not all of it can be attributed to CO₂ necessarily because the physics of heat transfer in the troposphere are far more complex than that of the upper atmosphere where radiation is king and the physics are simpler. In the troposphere, you have convection and precipitation processes (latent heating) that are highly uncertain and these processes can change naturally. The fluxes on these are larger than the relatively small EEI estimated by CERES instrumentation and assumed to be due to CO₂.

7⃣ 𝐈𝐬 𝐠𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐬?

— As far as I can tell, no. The quality of life on Earth has never been better than it is today, and it is only projected to improve through 2100 by almost every measurable metric. We can adapt to whatever climate changes there are just like we always have. But just like with any climate change that has ever occurred, natural or man-made, there will be pros and cons to it depending on where you live.

I am what you call a “lukewarmer.”

I do not deny that there is anthropogenic influence on the climate system, but I'm also not running around like a hysterical chicken either.

There are far more important environmental problems that need to be addressed that are within our control.

[Christian @InTheTrenchesUK]

Andy Burnham just promised to 'govern for all' outside Number 10. Here's what he didn't mention...

Andy Burnham is Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Read that sentence again. Let it settle in your bones. The man who covered up the industrial-scale rape of 250,000 British children. The man who left a hospital where 1,200 people died without a public inquiry. The man who wasted £100 million of your money on abandoned schemes. The man who wants 10,000 more asylum seekers from Sudan and Eritrea. The man who put terrorist-sympathising smear merchants in charge of Number 10.

This is not politics. This is the capture of a nation by a machine of betrayal. This is the complete file on how Andrew Murray Burnham failed his way to the top.

PART I: THE NHS BODY COUNT

Mid Staffordshire NHS Trust. Between 2005 and 2009, between 400 and 1,200 people died unnecessarily. Patients drank water from flower vases. They were left in soiled sheets. They died of thirst and neglect in a British hospital.

Andy Burnham became Health Secretary in June 2009. The families of the dead had one demand: a statutory public inquiry with full legal powers to compel witnesses and evidence. Burnham received 81 requests for this inquiry. He refused all 81. Instead, he appointed a limited independent inquiry chaired by Robert Francis QC. Held in private. Without the power to force testimony. Without the power to demand documents.

This was not incompetence. This was strategy. A limited inquiry admits failure without exposing the full rot. Burnham could express regret without revealing responsibility. He could promise change without delivering justice.

The families called it what it was: a cover-up. Julie Bailey, whose mother died at Stafford, called Burnham "grossly unsuitable" for leadership. The inquiry he refused could have saved lives. He chose his career over their children.

But Mid Staffordshire was not the only body count on his watch.

Morecambe Bay NHS Trust. Mothers and babies died. The Care Quality Commission, the regulator, found catastrophic failures. Then something strange happened. Baroness Young, chair of the CQC, gave evidence that pressure to "tone down" criticism "peaked under" Burnham's tenure as Health Secretary. Professor Sir Brian Jarman accused Labour ministers of "suppressing" work exposing problems. He called the Department of Health "a denial machine."

The pattern repeats. The regulator pressured. The criticism suppressed. The bodies buried. The minister promoted.

Then Hinchingbrooke Hospital. The first fully privatised NHS hospital in Britain. The process began under Burnham's watch in March 2010. The shortlist drawn up on the eve of the election. The contract signed by the Coalition in 2011. The hospital returned to the NHS in 2015 after Circle Health pulled out. Burnham now attacks Conservative NHS privatisation. He started the process himself.

This is the Burnham Method. Adopt the popular position. Act contrary in power. Express regret when safe.

PART II: THE PROPERTY CORRUPTION

The Greater Manchester Housing Investment Fund. £983 million of public money. The largest housing fund in the country. The promise: affordable homes for Mancunians. The reality: a feeding trough for developers.

Burnham's administration directed over £600 million to a single developer. Renaker. One company. Sixty percent of the entire fund. The £140 million loans were approved despite "inconsistent" viability reports. The Greater Manchester Combined Authority failed to obtain asset and liability statements from the developer. A report into these failures was suppressed for 13 months. The duty of candour was ignored.

Aubrey Weis, a wealthy landowner, challenged these loans in court. The Competition Appeal Tribunal ruled for the GMCA in 2025. The Court of Appeal heard the case in June 2026. Days before the Makerfield by-election that would make Burnham Prime Minister. The timing was not accidental. The corruption was not theoretical.

Then the donations. The 2026 campaign. £1,400 from Citybranch, a property developer. Burnham claims he never met the donor. The man who controlled £983 million in housing funds cannot remember meeting a property developer who gave him money.

The revolving door spins faster. James Purnell, Burnham's chief of staff in Number 10, was CEO of Flint Global. A lobbying firm. Clients include Huawei, Apple, BP, Amazon, Uber, Glencore. The man who advises the Prime Minister on policy spent years selling access to the same corporations. Transparency campaigners warned of conflicts of interest. Burnham appointed him anyway.

This is how it works. Public money flows to developers. Developers donate to campaigns. Campaigns win elections. Lobbyists write policy. The circle closes. You pay for it all.

PART III: THE RAPE COVER-UP

Operation Augusta. Manchester, 2003 to 2005. Police identified up to 100 men collecting girls from care homes like takeaway orders. At least 57 children in Manchester social services care, some as young as 12, were being gang-raped, trafficked, and tortured. Police had names. Police had addresses. Police had evidence.

The operation was shut down in 2005. Not because the danger passed. Not because the men stopped. Shut down because senior officers and Labour councillors were more afraid of "inflaming community tensions" than of protecting raped children. The perpetrators were predominantly Pakistani heritage Muslim men. The victims were white British girls. The decision was political. The children were abandoned.

Andy Burnham became Mayor of Greater Manchester in 2017. He commissioned independent reviews into historic child sexual exploitation in Manchester, Oldham, and Rochdale. The reviews confirmed widespread organised abuse. The reviews confirmed institutional failure. The reviews delivered no justice.

In 2024, the reviewers Malcolm Newsom and Gary Ridgway resigned. They alleged that authorities were "lawyering up" and obstructing the investigation. The duty of candour was missing. The cover-up continued.

Maggie Oliver knows the truth. She was the detective who blew the whistle on the Rochdale scandal. She worked with Burnham's reviews. She called the Oldham review "nothing less than a cover-up." She accused Burnham of failing to "grasp the nettle" on current failures. She saw the pattern: admit past failures to protect the present.

The numbers are staggering. The Rupert Lowe Rape Gang Inquiry Report, published June 2026, crowdfunded by 20,000 people, documented 250,000 young white British girls abused since the 1950s across 149 local authorities. The methods were torture. Girls as young as 11 collected from schools. Drugged with alcohol. Passed between men like currency. Taken to "red rooms" for daily gang rape. Trafficked to Pakistan. Forced to convert to Islam and marry rapists to legitimise pregnancies. Called "white trash" and "kuffar" by their abusers. The rape was racial. The rape was religious. The rape was targeted.

The institutional collapse was total. Police called victims "prostitutes." Social services placed children in trafficking hubs. NHS recorded genital injuries in children then discharged them without safeguarding. Schools excluded victims instead of protecting them. Taxi licensing renewed permits for drivers who transported children to rape houses.

Burnham's response? He called critics "desperate." He dismissed Reform UK's allegations as "smears." He stood by his record. His record is 250,000 victims and no justice.

Then there is Bev Craig. Executive Member for Adult Social Care in Manchester from 2017 to 2021. While Burnham commissioned his reviews, Craig oversaw the same adult social services that the Lowe Report says undermined parents, placed children in trafficking hubs, closed cases despite clear exploitation indicators, called victims "prostitutes," offered contraception instead of protection. She knew where the bodies were buried because she helped bury them.

In December 2021, council leader Richard Leese stepped down after 25 years covering the Operation Augusta period. His chosen successor? Bev Craig. The woman who oversaw the failures became the leader. Then Burnham's Deputy Mayor for Economy. Then the Labour candidate for Greater Manchester Mayor in July 2026. The coronation complete. Burnham to Prime Minister. Craig to Mayor. The rape gang inquiry investigating their city while they seize national power.

PART IV: THE OPEN BORDERS BETRAYAL

"Open Borders Andy." "Open Borders Burnham." The Reform UK nickname that sticks because the record supports it.

The double game is simple. Tough talk for election cameras. Soft reality for policy. In 2024 and 2025, Burnham made sceptical noises about mass migration. He supported some of Shabana Mahmood's reforms. He talked about ending hotel accommodation. The Critic saw through it immediately: "Suspect on immigration." "Embraces state multiculturalism." The nickname fits the record better than the messaging.

The record is clear. Burnham opposed longer waits for permanent settlement. He backed attacks on Indefinite Leave to Remain reforms. He supported ending "no recourse to public funds" restrictions. He wants asylum seekers working while claims are processed. This creates a magnetic pull factor for illegal entry. Why risk the Channel when you can work legally while waiting?

Then the bombshell. Reform UK's Zia Yusuf revealed Burnham's plans. Direct relocation of more than 10,000 additional asylum seekers from overseas. Specifically high-arrival nationalities like Sudan and Eritrea. Reversal of delays on permanent status for the post-2021 "Boriswave" cohort. Potentially granting benefits and family sponsorship rights to hundreds of thousands at catastrophic fiscal cost.

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority under Burnham spent hundreds of thousands of pounds on schemes helping migrants, including refugees, access housing, benefits, and services. Your taxes. Their priority. While British citizens sleep rough. While veterans wait for housing. While your grandmother waits for a hip replacement.

Nigel Farage has publicly blamed Burnham for the North West receiving a disproportionate share of asylum seekers. The "Open Borders Burnham" label is not rhetoric. It is description. The North West has cheaper housing costs. Long-standing Home Office policy places asylum seekers where rent is low. Burnham did not create the policy. But he did not fight it. He welcomed it. He built his "progressive" brand on it.

As Prime Minister, Burnham avoided immigration entirely in early speeches. He listens only to "insane open borders backbench MPs." Same soft policies. New face. Worse crisis. The borders remain open. The boats keep coming. The bill keeps rising. And Burnham is in Downing Street.

PART V: THE ISLAMIST SOFTNESS

Prevent. The UK's primary counter-terrorism safeguarding tool. The system that identifies vulnerable individuals at risk of radicalisation. The shield against Islamist terrorism.

In 2016, as Shadow Home Secretary, Andy Burnham called Prevent "toxic." He compared the reporting duty to internment in Northern Ireland. He said it made Muslims feel spied upon and unfairly targeted. He argued it risked creating the conditions for extremism to flourish. He wanted it scrapped or overhauled. This is not criticism. This is dismantling the main tool against Islamist radicalisation.

Then MEND. Muslim Engagement and Development. A group later named by Communities Secretary Michael Gove as having an "Islamist orientation." MEND hosted speakers supporting physical punishment for Jews, gay people, and minority sects. The Labour Party cut ties with MEND. Burnham did not. He endorsed MEND campaigns. He spoke at MEND fringe events. He platformed the group while it spread extremism.

Then CAGE. The organisation that praised "Jihadi John." The group that defended individuals linked to extremism. In 2021, Burnham co-hosted an interfaith iftar with the Ramadan Tent Project. Keir Starmer had withdrawn from the same event due to the group's CEO backing CAGE. Burnham stayed. Burnham hosted. The Muslim vote matters more than counter-terrorism concerns.

The Manchester Arena bombing. 22 May 2017. Salman Abedi. Islamist terrorist. 22 dead. 1,017 injured. The worst terrorist attack in Britain since 7/7. Burnham's response? Community cohesion. Avoid "Islamophobia." Prioritise relations. Do not confront. Do not name. The "Islamist-appeasing" accusations stick because the pattern is clear: the Muslim vote over border control, community relations over confronting political Islam, cohesion over courage.

The grooming gangs connect here too. The 250,000 victims. The predominantly Pakistani heritage perpetrators. The honour/shame clan codes. The targeting of white British girls as "kuffar." Burnham commissioned weak reviews. He avoided statutory public inquiries. The Muslim voting blocs of Manchester, Oldham, Rochdale mattered more than raped children. The pattern repeats. The community protected. The victims abandoned.

PART VI: THE STATE CAPTURE

July 2026. Andy Burnham becomes Prime Minister. His first appointments reveal everything.

Alison Phillips. Board member of Hope Not Hate Limited. The private company arm of Hope Not Hate. The same Hope Not Hate that faced Charity Commission investigations for political activity. The same Hope Not Hate that employed Liron Velleman, convicted of attempting to engage in sexual communication with a child. Phillips made Director of Transition in Burnham's Number 10. Her job: avoid the "early mistakes that befell Starmer."

Matthew McGregor. Former Director of Campaigns and Communications at Hope Not Hate. Made Director of Political Strategy in Burnham's Number 10. The man who ran smear campaigns now controls government political strategy.

Think about what this means. A man who ran Hope Not Hate's operations now controls the Prime Minister's political strategy. A woman who sat on Hope Not Hate's board while they faced regulatory investigations now controls the Prime Minister's transition. Anna Turley, former Hope Not Hate director, is already Labour Party Chair.

Hope Not Hate is not a charity. It is the continuation of Searchlight, a communist militant operation founded in 1964. It uses charitable status to launder taxpayer money into political warfare. It employs convicted child sex offenders. It uses blackmail, deception, and alleged drug supply to manufacture sources. It collaborates with the BBC to target political enemies. It spreads misinformation during civil unrest.

And now its operatives run the British government.

PART VII: THE METHOD

The Burnham Method is consistent across every scandal. Five steps. Recognisable. Repeatable.

Step One: Adopt the popular position. NHS defender. Civil liberties champion. Hillsborough campaigner. The man of the people.

Step Two: Act contrary when in power. Privatise NHS services. Implement ID cards. Suppress inquiries. Waste public money.

Step Three: Use limited inquiries. Avoid statutory public inquiries. Appoint friendly reviewers. Control the scope. Control the timing. Admit past failures to protect present power.

Step Four: Surround with lobbyists. Burson Marsteller. Flint Global. James Purnell. The revolving door spins. Access is sold. Policy is written.

Step Five: Express regret when safe. Years later. When politically convenient. When the damage is done. The apology tours begin.

The contradictions are stark. NHS defender who presided over mass death. Civil liberties champion who implemented ID cards. Anti-surveillance while voting for ID cards. Pro-union while appointing a chief of staff from a union-busting firm. Anti-privatisation while starting the Hinchingbrooke process. Pro-inquiry while voting against Iraq War investigations. Anti-war while voting for Iraq. Transparency while surrounded by non-transparent lobbyists. Man of the people while a career politician since age 24 with a Cambridge education.

PART VIII: THE MONEY

June 24, 2026. The day after the Makerfield by-election made Burnham Prime Minister. Two companies incorporated. Same day. Same address.

Office of Andy Burnham Ltd. Company number 17299283. Director: Andrew Murray Burnham. Correspondence address: 71 to 75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London WC2H 9JQ.

Andy Burnham for Leader Ltd. Company number 17300460. Director: Andrew Murray Burnham. Correspondence address: 71 to 75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London WC2H 9JQ.

Both verified by RAPID FORMATIONS LIMITED ACSP on June 19, 2026. Both active. Both controlled by the Prime Minister.

The funding tells the story. March to April 2026. £20,000 from trade unions. £10,000 from Fire Brigades Union. £5,000 from Communication Workers Union. £5,000 from Unison. The union paymasters. Then £1,400 from Citybranch, a property developer. The developer donor. The man who controlled £983 million in housing funds cannot remember meeting a property developer who gave him money.

The MPs' expenses scandal adds texture. The £215,000 London flat purchased in 2005, part-funded by taxpayer ACA claims. The IKEA receipt including a bathrobe, claimed as a "genuine oversight" and repaid. The spousal involvement. Marie France van Heel, his wife, "regularly in touch with fees office to negotiate claims." The June 2006 refusal when the fees office rejected covering both London and constituency mortgages as it breached rules. The 2010 leasing out of the flat when mortgage claims were banned, joking it was to avoid divorce.

The 2023 speeding conviction. 78mph in a 40mph zone. 95% over the limit. £1,984 fine. Six points. Rules for thee, not for me. The public safety champion endangering the public.

PART IX: THE FABIAN WOLF

The Burnham Method is not accidental. It is Fabian strategy, perfected over 140 years.

The Fabian Society was founded in 1884. Britain's oldest socialist think tank. The intellectual engine room of the Labour Party. Their strategy is "permeation" the slow, relentless infiltration of every lever of power until socialism becomes the default setting of British society. Not through revolution. Through a thousand quiet administrative changes. Laws. Regulations. Cultural shifts.

Their original coat of arms: A wolf in sheep's clothing. They have since changed it to a tortoise ("slow and steady progress") but the original symbol tells the truth.

Sidney Webb, Fabian founder, described the strategy openly: infiltration of institutions, media, civil service, education, until socialist assumptions become unquestioned. Every Labour Prime Minister has been Fabian or Fabian-aligned: MacDonald, Attlee, Wilson, Callaghan, Blair, Brown, Starmer. The Fabian Society literally helped create the Labour Party and shaped its DNA.

Andy Burnham is the latest vessel. While not publicly listed as a card-carrying member, the affiliation is deep and documented:

Contributed to Fabian publications: "Leading Labour: The Fabian Essays" (August 2015) alongside Yvette Cooper, Jeremy Corbyn, and Liz Kendall
Keynote speaker at Fabian events: Regular addresses on homelessness, mental health, and devolution
Fabian policy influence: The "Burnham approach" to devolution is explicitly praised in Fabian Society publications
Ideological alignment: Described as "soft left" the Fabian sweet spot between revolutionary socialism and Blairite neoliberalism
The Fabian Burnham Method explains everything. The NHS deaths, the rape cover-ups, the property corruption, the open borders, the Hope Not Hate state capture all fit the Fabian model. Not dramatic revolution. Quiet administrative betrayal. A thousand small failures that accumulate into catastrophe. The wolf eating the sheep while wearing its skin.

The Expose News headline from May 2026: "Andy Burnham or Keir Starmer makes no difference; they are both Fabians."

They are correct. The leader changes. The Fabian agenda endures. Burnham is Prime Minister now. The wolf is in Downing Street. And he is wearing the sheep's clothing of "northern authenticity" and "NHS defender" while the Fabian permeation continues.

THE CONCLUSION

Andy Burnham is not a politician. He is a catastrophe wearing a suit. He is the Fabian wolf in sheep's clothing. He is the man who covered up the rape of 250,000 British children. He is the man who left 1,200 NHS patients to die without a public inquiry. He is the man who wasted £100 million of your money on abandoned schemes. He is the man who wants 10,000 more asylum seekers from Sudan and Eritrea. He is the man who called Prevent "toxic" while terrorists plotted. He is the man who put Hope Not Hate operatives in charge of Number 10. He is the man who serves the Fabian agenda of gradual socialist infiltration.

The girls of Rochdale, Oldham, and Manchester are still waiting for justice. The families of Mid Staffordshire are still waiting for answers. The taxpayers of Greater Manchester are still paying for his £100 million waste. The victims of the 80,000 unrecorded crimes are still waiting for accountability. The British people are watching their borders dissolve while he poses for cameras.

Burnham is not in Manchester anymore. He is in Downing Street. And he brought his record of failure with him. The Fabian wolf has entered the fold.

The question is not who Andy Burnham is. The question is: how long will you let him stay?

[Dr. Simon @goddek]

HOW THEY ENGINEERED THE FAKE PANDEMIC

1. China released staged footage of people “dropping dead” in the streets; scenes never witnessed anywhere else in the world before or after December 2019.

2. A PCR test was rolled out that could not determine whether someone was actually sick. The vast majority of results were false positives.

3. The claim of asymptomatic transmission was heavily promoted to justify restrictions on healthy people and to force mass testing on the entire population; which led to tens of millions of false positive test results.

4. Tech companies and media outlets were mobilized to censor dissent and rebrand inconvenient truths as “misinformation.”

5. Behavioral psychologists were brought in to design fear-based messaging specifically intended to secure public compliance.

6. To keep the illusion of a deadly pandemic alive, they required excess mortality data.

7. Ordinary mild respiratory symptoms alone could not produce those numbers, so the population was subjected to sustained psychological pressure capable of triggering mass psychogenic illness.

8. Relentless fear messaging kept cortisol levels chronically elevated, weakening immune function, particularly among the elderly.

9. Social isolation, delayed medical care, and lockdown policies then generated the excess deaths needed to prop up the narrative.

10. Cloth and surgical masks were suddenly declared effective, something no serious public-health authority had previously recommended for ordinary respiratory pathogens, turning every face into a walking advertisement for fear.

11. People were conditioned to remain isolated “until the vaccine was ready,” buying authorities additional time to expand control.

12. Billions were injected with an experimental product that was claimed to stop both infection and transmission.

13. When those claims collapsed, the goalposts were moved: “Your shot won’t work unless the unvaccinated also take it.”

14. New “variants” were announced every few months to justify an endless series of booster campaigns.

15. A new condition - “long COVID” - was introduced to reframe mounting vaccine side effects.

16. Pharmaceutical companies recorded unprecedented profits, shielded by government contracts and complete legal immunity.

17. Anyone who raised objections was silenced, deplatformed, investigated, or publicly discredited.

18. Once the story became too strained to maintain, the pandemic was abruptly declared over, and the entire episode was treated as if it had never happened.

NEVER FORGET AND PROSECUTE FAUCI!

I am so bored of politicians debating the illegal migrant crisis, yet failing to offer any solutions.

In Parliament, I just outlined step-by-step exactly how a Restore Britain Government will deport every last illegal migrant in our country.

Mass deportations.

[Ross Kempsell @RossKempsell]

Now today's out the way I'm sure we will be hearing a lot more about how:

- Labour's first two Budgets increased taxes on British workers by £36 billion and £26 billion respectively, pushing the tax burden to an historic high of 38.3% of GDP

- The OBR forecasts 240,000 more people will be unemployed in 2026 than it previously projected - it said this is largely attributable to Labour's employment policies

- The UK unemployment rate was 4.9% as of early 2026, up from 4.6% a year earlier, an increase of 124,000

- Total UK welfare spending this year is estimated at £333.7 billion - up from £315 billion

- The UK is spending £301 million per day just to service its debt interest on Labour borrowing

- Labour promised 1.5 million new homes this parliament. Between 9 July 2024 and 15 March 2026, it had build just 342,100, way off target

- More than 1 million young people aged 16-24 were not in education, employment or training in the first quarter of this year - up 89,000

- The NHS waiting list stands at 7.22 million cases

- When Labour took office in July 2024, just 58.8% of patients were treated within 18 weeks. The target is 92%. By March 2026 it had only reached 65.3%

- Around 100,000 patients are waiting over a year for NHS treatment

- Over the past year, approximately 1.56 million people waited more than 4 hours in A&E - a huge breach of the target

- The outstanding caseload in the Crown Court stands at around 80,200 - the highest level recorded since 2016 and more than double the pre-Covid caseload

- A quarter of all Crown Court cases have been open for more than a year

- There are currently 14,749 sexual offences cases waiting to go to the Crown Court - a 75% increase

- There were approximately 530,640 shoplifting offences recorded in England and Wales over the past year - the highest in the entire time series on record

- There were 41,000 small boat arrivals in 2025

- Of all people who have arrived by small boat since 2018, only around 7,500 (4%) had been returned from the UK by the end of 2025

- Last year the Home Office spent £4 billion on asylum support. This includes £2.1 billion on hotel accommodation alone - around £6 million per day

@breexxybellz Don’t rate him, he did look world class for a season or so, but not anymore. Not sure we can expect him to get to that level again

[Kosher @koshercockney]

Wow. This was a while back now.

I’m sure he speaks for the majority of people in the UK. And he was right about illegal migrants.

“These people will go on to commit egrious crimes. Rape, theft, murder…”

As soon as he says that. She tried to silence him

Restore Britain’s five step plan to end the welfare scam.

Number one.

No benefits for foreigners. Saves billions and billions every year. If a Somalian family is living on benefits in social housing funded by the British taxpayer, I wish them well. In Somalia. No discussion needed. Huge savings to be had.

Second.

The ballooning welfare bill is not solely down to foreign nationals, far from it. There are a huge number of British people taking the mick. The system is there for the taking, and they are doing exactly that. Claiming some disability or another, when there is evidently nothing wrong.

Face-to-face assessments are vital, regular and vigorous.

- Dedicated welfare fraud investigation units.
- Proper data-sharing between HMRC, DWP and local authorities.
- Automatic recovery of fraudulent claims from future earnings.

And actually through doing this, we can give proper support to those British men and women who genuinely need it. A fair, robust and compassionate approach.

Third.

A life on benefits for a healthy individual is NOT acceptable. If you can work, you must work. A few months to find a desired job is reasonable, but after that - if you want your benefit money, you will be put to work.

That is Restore Britain’s position.

Litter picking, street cleaning, gardening, scraping chewing gum off the pavement. Whatever. If it needs doing and you want the money, you’re doing it.

Random drug tests for those on benefits - if you’re getting high, the benefits stop.

Tough love.

Next.

Reintroduce the two child cap. Hardworking British parents shouldn’t have to subsidise indolence.

If you want more children, get a job.

Finally.

Tax cuts.

Raise the thresholds. Make it so that going back to work is financially rewarding. Obviously. Reward hard work, and people will do more of it. If people feel like going into work is actually worth it, they will do it. It must never pay to sit on benefits.

More training, more apprenticeships. A skilled and active workforce. Contributing, not taking. That is what we need.

A Restore Britain Government will ensure no household receives more in out-of-work benefits than the equivalent working family earns after tax.

The welfare system should protect those who cannot work, support those who fall on hard times, and help people back into employment as quickly as possible.

It should never be more attractive than work.

Restore Britain will reward contribution and ambition, not indolence and entitlement.

End the welfare scam, slash the bill, crush inflation.

Essentially what has happened is that the decaying political establishment has imported millions of migrants from alien cultures that are entirely incompatible with the British way of life.

Those migrants have colonised large parts of our country, and live their lives how they choose to do so because our authorities are too frightened of being called racist to challenge them.

That has meant attitudes have flourished and spread which, in short, treat women and non-Muslims like shit.

And yes, I do mean that.

Conservative, Labour and Reform politicians are all directly responsible for this vast importation. Personally, I will never forgive anyone responsible.

Vulnerable working class white girls were treated like a piece of meat. Raped, abused, tortured, murdered. It was a racial attack, and it was a coordinated attack. All across Britain.

They targeted these girls because they were vulnerable, they were young, they were white.

Until the political class accepts that fact, nothing will EVER change.

These men do not live by the same rules as us - it is all beyond evil. And this is a coordinated network of organised crime right across the country. It is not random groups of scumbags doing this. It is a network. Organised. Ruthless. Efficient. It is an industry.

This is not homegrown. We imported it. We welcomed it. Embraced it. We continue to do so.

That was a choice.

Reversing it is also a choice. One we will make.

A Restore Britain Government will remove millions of foreign nationals who hate our way of life and have no reason to be in our country. Gone, and never allowed back.

With the British people’s approval, we will reintroduce the death penalty.

If a Pakistani man has been gang-raping a young English girl? Torturing her? Passing her around his brothers to also be raped?

We will put him to death. And I look forward to that. I really do.

Our report has outlined exact recommendations on what needs to be done to eradicate this cancer.

A Restore Britain Government will deliver it.

We will use the full force of the British state to crack down on these rapists and their enablers in the most brutal fashion imaginable. It will be swift and ruthless. It will be done, finally.

And I include their enablers in that.

That is why Farage tried to put me in prison. Because I wanted to deport complicit foreign family members. He found that so very extreme - admitting it on national television. Simply remarkable.

Hearing the evidence and testimonies provided to our inquiry, I can assure you that I am holding a moderate position.

I want the scumbags gone. Deported. Never allowed back.

For the very worst among them, I want them permanently removed.

Restore Britain will get called extreme, racist, islamophobic and whatever else by the Guardian, Farage, Nadine Dorries, the BBC, the Daily Mail, Zack Polanski.

I do not give a shit.

I am just grateful that there is finally a political party with the courage to do what needs to be done.

We are going to get our country back.

We are going to Restore Britain.

I have just finished reading The Rape Gang Inquiry Report.

It is, without a doubt, the most horrifying document I've ever read in my life.

There is no close second... and it's worse than you could ever imagine.

Here's everything you need to know 🧵

[BanksyCat @Banksycat]

They couldn't get through the door marked democracy. So they found one nobody would dare close. Marked it protect our children. That key is Digital ID. And it opens everything. Once it turns it never turns back.

Keir Starmer has used children as a shield his entire career. First to avoid prosecuting abusers. Now to seize control of the internet.

His name is on the document that gave suspected child rapists a warning letter instead of handcuffs.

13,000 letters issued. In Newcastle 220 warning notices handed to suspects in one grooming gang instead of charges.

Maggie Oliver exposed Rochdale. She worked a case with 97 identified child abusers. Expected rape charges on an industrial scale. Instead a couple of men got warning letters. Her conclusion. They were used to get rid of a job.

Same man. Same shield. Fifteen years later.

64% of child sexual abuse is physical. Not a screen. Not autoplay. Not a like button. A room. A door. A child who wasn't believed.

1,200 children safeguarded from grooming gangs every single month RIGHT NOW. Arrests going UP not down. It never stopped.

Then this morning he picked up the same shield.

The most sweeping internet controls Britain has ever seen. No Parliament. No scrutiny. No vote. Everyone's ID. Everyone's data. Every search. Every click. Forever. And once that infrastructure exists it never goes away. It always expands.

Every click tracked. Every search logged. Every dissenting voice identified.

Australia tried it first. Banned under 16s in December 2025. Within months 61% of children still had access. It didn’t work.

Every government that has moved to control the internet used children as the reason. Every single one. China. Russia. Iran. North Korea.

Australia proves it doesn’t protect children. The others prove what it’s really for.

Digital ID is the key. Children are the door.

Whoever controls the internet controls the conversation and tonight he told Channel 4 he has a VERY hard line on protecting children. He does.

Just never the ones who needed it.
