Imagine living in a country where you go straight to jail for a tweet, but get bail after being arrested for ‘allegedly’ throwing a 3 year old baby into a crocodile enclosure! The world is watching is disbelief!

Should phone shops, vape shops, and corner shops be able to sponsor “highly skilled” visas?

Thousands of these businesses across the country are bringing low skilled workers to Britain, on routes intended for people who are highly skilled.

It's a total joke.

@ZiaYusufUK Well done Zia where being taking for a ride hopefully not in a Buckinghamshire taxi 🚕

[UK Decline Statistics @UKDecline]

£5,778,570 from Buckinghamshire Council to one taxi firm in 2025, across 3,215 transactions.

That's an average of £1,797.38 per transaction.

And yet people are saying there is nothing wrong here.

150,000 people get sickness benefits worth £5,000 a year - but the government has no idea why.

No diagnosis, no evidence on file - the government just hands out the money. Your money. £770 million of it.

This has to stop.

@Keir_Starmer @MatthewStadlen I thought you’d just eased sanctions so we can buy there gas again why would he be hurting a customer

[Mike Gardner @mikegardner_wb]

America is building rockets that can go to Mars and is taking AI to new levels.

Meanwhile, in Britain, our Government is banning underfloor heating and wants to regulate our use of towel rails.

I despair for our future under these student socialist imbeciles.

@luke11campbell @CLAtweets Well done Luke we need to grow our own food

Starmer is utterly deluded.

Here he is thrilled that the Unilever site in Warrington which closed with 140 job losses is being replaced by a 260,000 Data Centre …

which will employ about 40 people in total, many remotely.

Datacentres will NOT solve growing unemployment, they will only help increase it.

Ed Miliband has signed the UK up to a legally binding 87% CO2 emissions cut by 2040. Paul Homewood says this can only be achieved by the devastation of industry and sharp cuts in the standard of living. Read his article in the Climate Skeptic. https://t.co/bGOg3zigaP
