So the Labour Party, with 403 MPs, couldn't find a single one that they thought was up to being Prime Minister and had to get Andy Burnham back into Parliament...
And now they can't find a single MP up to being Foreign Secretary so they have to recruit an ex MP living in the US.
Says a lot about the quality of talent on Labour benches, doesn't it?
This heatwave really is showing how dysfunctional our country is becoming.
We are fighting to be allowed AC.
The trains have been cancelled and/or we are being told not to use them (what, to work in our non-AC homes?)
Someone passed out on a Tube I was on - unsurprising as it is a sauna.
And now we’re being told to limit water use and being slapped with hosepipe bans because we’ve failed to build enough reservoirs.
It’s been hot for less than a week. And our national infrastructure has basically already collapsed.
Let’s treat this as a wake up call
We warned you for years. You didn't listen.
Instead, you accused us of alarmism and racism.
One day, you will beg us for forgiveness.
London and New York are turning into third world shitholes.
You are being made strangers in your own countries.
You are being forced to accept the most barbaric practices by a people who openly glorify your murder and ethnic cleansing.
You are made to watch it on the news while your politicians, academia, and media tell you it's racist to even speak out against it.
Always remember, entire civilisations of Christians, Jews, and others were ethnically cleansed by Muslim invaders.
It is HAPPENING to you now!
Between 2023-2025, there were 173,000 arrests of foreign nationals in the United Kingdom.
Or 463 arrests a day.
How do we know?
A freedom of information request.
The UK state wouldn’t tell you otherwise.

Nîmes, Francia. Scuola elementare La Planette: 40 gradi, un bimbo sviene per il caldo. Lezioni nei corridoi.
I genitori si mobilitano, raccolgono 2.000 euro in 3 giorni e installano cinque condizionatori portatili. Soluzione pratica? No. Il sindaco dell città, Vincent Bouget, del partito comunista, ordina di toglierli: «Creano un precedente di disparità perché in alcuni quartieri i genitori non hanno i mezzi per comprarli».
Essi vivono.
UK Heatwave Survival Guide, by a bloke who actually knows what hot feels like 🔥
Having grown up in Sub-Saharan Africa and spent my soldiering days in South Africa, South West Africa and Southern Angola, I watch the British heatwave hysteria with the calm detachment of someone who’s seen real ovens.
Yes, it’s hot this week.
Yes, we’re not built for it.
Our national complexion is best described as “milk bottle with a light dusting of freckles.”
But instead of melting into a puddle of complaint, maybe we could treat this rare gift of actual sunshine like the miracle it is?
I’ve soldiered on operations in 40+°C wearing leather boots, nutria brown uniforms, bush hat, webbing, rifle and barely enough water to sustain a small infant camel.
We didn’t have weather apps screaming “RED ALERT: YOU WILL LITERALLY DIE” in Hades red.
We didn’t have millions of people competing for the most dramatic “I can’t cope” post.
We just got on with it.
Because that’s what humans did before the internet turned every warm day into a national trauma.
The real killer isn’t the temperature, it’s the competitive woe.
Everyone trying to out-suffer each other: “My Tesco meal deal nearly melted in the queue!” etc.
Chap, I once had to drink water that tasted like it had been filtered through a warthog.
So here’s my controversial take, touch some grass.
Literally. Get some vitamin D on those vampire arms while it lasts.
Because we all know what’s coming, in a few months we’ll be back to “chucking it down” with sideways rain, complaining about the cold like it’s a new phenomenon.
Embrace the fleeting British summer, you pasty legends.
The sun’s here, it’s free, and it won’t be staying long.
And if it hits 35°C again, just remember: somewhere in the Karoo, Kalahari and Kaokoveld , a lizard 🦎 is laughing at us.
Oh bloody marvellous!
We’ve paid SIX times the normal price for our imported energy because it’s hot!!
So after Ed told us solar and wind would be cheaper and give us energy security and after spending £ HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS on subsidies, a hot week in June brings us to £470 per megawatt hour instead of £71.
It’s completely out of control now 🤡
🚨 THE WESTMINSTER CLOWNS ARE REARRANGING THE DECK CHAIRS.
Good morning to the millions of everyday, hardworking Brits waking up to another pathetic display of political desperation.
Rachel Reeves has just gone on live television to beg Andy Burnham to let her keep her job as Chancellor. 🤡
Her aides are literally pleading with business leaders to lobby Burnham behind the scenes because she is terrified of being demoted in the new Cabinet. She has received zero endorsements.
And now Burnham is planning to hand the Treasury to Ed Miliband. The man who destroyed British manufacturing with his Net Zero obsession could soon control your entire economy.
These people are entirely obsessed with their own survival, trading Number 11 like a playing card while our economy collapses. 💷
Let us be completely clear to the Labour establishment.
Nobody asked for this. Nobody voted for this. And nobody wants an unelected Prime Minister chosen by Labour MPs in a corridor deciding who runs your economy next.
We do not want backroom deals. We do not want unelected Prime Ministers chosen by Labour MPs in a corridor. We want a general election. RT if Britain deserves a say in who runs it. 🇬🇧🔥
After PMQs Tulip Siddiq raised a point of order.
She said she was concerned about the tone used in parliament and how that impacts on the public’s view of politics.
You seriously couldn’t make this one up.
The absolute irony of Tulip Siddiq running to the Speaker with a point of order about “decorum,” while hiding out in the UK to evade a four-year prison sentence for corruption in Bangladesh.
She literally resigned from the Treasury in disgrace over her questionable financial ties, yet she has the nerve to lecture Kemi Badenoch on parliamentary standards?
🙄
🚨 THE DEATH OF BRITISH DEMOCRACY.
Good morning to the millions of everyday, hardworking Brits waking up to another Westminster stitch-up.
Andy Burnham could be the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom by July 17th. 🤡
No general election. No public vote. Just a cabal of Labour MPs deciding amongst themselves who gets to run your country next!
This is the exact same pro-EU careerist who wants Britain back in the EU, blames Brexit for the cost of living, and has never supported proper immigration controls. 💷
He is even the same establishment puppet who voted to launch the disastrous Iraq War.
Britain is about to have its 7th Prime Minister in just 10 years, and not a single one of them was chosen by the British public at the moment they took office.
They are treating our country's highest office like a private game of pass the parcel while your life gets more expensive and less safe.
RT if you have had absolutely enough and demand an immediate General Election! 🔁🇬🇧🔥
We are in a very dark place. The football World Cup is on & this council has spent tax payers money going to court to make it illegal to fly Our flag on Our streets.
After the British girl trafficked to Ecuador got almost ZERO coverage…I decided to do some digging!
In just the past week alone -
20 girls of similar age reported missing in the UK. Some now found, one poor girl has lost her life and many are still missing!! 🤬
Where the fuck are the police appeals?? Where’s the wall-to-wall media coverage like years ago?? These days it’s impossible to even find a full description!!
Our daughters are vanishing and no one seems to give a shit.
This isn’t normal. Safeguarding is failing HARD.
Demand answers. Demand visibility. Demand action.
Share the faces. Share the names. Make noise before more disappear.
We see you. We won’t stay silent. @pinkladies_uk
Things blamed on cattle:
- Existing
- Burping
- Standing about in fields
- Turning grass nobody can eat into food
Things that actually wreck the planet, ignored:
- Monocrop fields that strip the soil bare, poison the rivers and leave nothing alive but the one crop
- Synthetic fertiliser, made from fossil gas, running off into dead zones and rising as a greenhouse gas hundreds of times worse than CO2
- Ancient aquifers drained faster than rain can refill them, to irrigate crops in places that were never meant to grow them
- Rainforest and grassland cleared the world over to plant soya, palm and sugar
- Pesticides and weedkillers sprayed by the billion gallons onto the food itself, then into the water, the wildlife and us
- Whole landscapes sprayed sterile, the insects gone, the birds with them
The outrage and the damage are not even in the same postcode. The short list gets the documentaries, the panels and the guilt. The long list gets a green label and a government subsidy. The cow is just standing there, holding everyone else's coat.
Dear @EnvAgency.
In February this year, after 4 years of asking you to look after the Aldersbrook, I led a team of volunteers to do your job for you & clean out tonnes of silt & leaves, as well as hundreds of bags of rubbish. Through the effort of community volunteers & donations, & at zero cost to the taxpayer, we turned a forgotten silted up ditch back into a river again.
Last nights intense rain storm showed why our actions are the very definition of “strengthening water resilience”. A huge amount of rain fell in a short time, but the restored section of the Aldersbrook has been able to hold 100’s of thousands of litres more water, stopping this water running into the Roding, & thereby *reducing* local flood risk. The first photograph below is of the Aldersbrook after the rains this morning- a big contrast to the area before we did the work.
Perhaps more importantly, this water, instead of running straight off into the Roding & hence the sea is now being held in the Aldersbrook & gradually released so it can be used by nature. It is feeding marshes, trees & wildlife, topping up groundwater & helping to reduce our flood/drought cycle. If you want to strengthen water resilience, we need thousands more projects like the Aldersbrook around the country.
So the question I ask you, Environment Agency, is why you are threatening me with two years imprisonment, rather than offering to meet & discuss how we can work together to restore the Roding & its tributaries, which could become a blueprint for you cooperating with local river guardians nationwide?
If Andy Burnham walks into Number 10 without a General Election, it would be an absolute disgrace.
Britain cannot keep being handed unelected Prime Ministers.
Let the people decide.
General Election now. 🗳️ 🇬🇧
