Folic acid to be added into UK food supply. Folic acid more than doubles risk of prostate cancer. The NIH warns cancer patients to steer clear of folic acid. Any of this making sense?

[The Free Speech Union @SpeechUnion]

In yet another Orwellian move, the Government announced in a green paper this week that it wants to decide what news people can and cannot see, with plans to push approved outlets to the top of social media feeds.

Ministers should not be deciding which news sources the public read — especially in an era when three-quarters of under-25s say they get their news from social media.

As written in The Times, “In a state-sponsored ­regime in which inconvenient news was pushed out of view, would the grooming gangs scandal or the excesses of transgender ideology ever have come to light? You shouldn’t choose to trust ­everything you read online; but you shouldn’t trust the state to make the choice for you, either”.

This is dystopian.

🚨 I've listened to Andy Burnham's 10 year speech, where he looks Britain's new saviour in Zelenski uniform, bragging about what a success Greater Manchester is with my mouth open.

You would be forgiven for thinking Greater Manchester was close to perfect, an example to everyone of how his fantastic policies have worked.

Does he seriously think most of Greater Manchester is a success? or that he contributed to a shiny business sector, 2 world class football teams and the largest Uni in the country? because outside that...

▪️Nearly 1 in 4 GM neighbourhoods are in the most deprived 10% nationally.

▪️Half of GM’s local authority areas are among England’s 30 most deprived.

▪️Manchester city is ranked 4th most deprived English local authorities.

▪️In 2024, 16.2% of jobs in Greater Manchester workplaces paid below the real Living Wage = 193,000 low-paid jobs.

▪️Temporary accommodation is around 5,915 households, with 8,600 children in temporary accommodation.

▪️Around 12,700 long-term empty homes were identified across the city-region.

▪️4 of the 10 highest recorded crime local authorities in England are in Greater Manchester

▪️Educational achievements are below national average

▪️Manchester city area above national unemployment levels

▪️1 in 8 working age people get PIP, above the national average

▪️The GM area has a lower household disposable income than the national average

▪️34% increase in rough sleeping

▪️Violent crime and sexual offences are above the national average.

▪️grooming gangs? or is we still ignoring these?

▪️Drug-related death rates in Greater Manchester are significantly above the national average

Oh and now lets talk about debt. Bravo Andy... to achieve some of the highest deprivation in the country under his leadership, GMCA now has about £1.4 BILLION of gross debt and an underlying borrowing need of roughly £2.5 BILLION.

So his speech on "Hopes and dreams" is actually more like 'No hope and nightmares', his leafy suburbs and shiny city buildings can't really hide the truth.

You're welcome.

It’s unfathomable why any government makes its people poorer, & ruins businesses, all whilst proclaiming it’s for the planet, whilst mass importing from China!

[Lucy Connolly @LucyTCWife]

No, no, no!!
You don't get to apologise for a poorly judged Tweet.

Its a serious criminal offence, now known to be a Cat 1A charge.

Straight to prison with you, NO BAIL, no mitigation!

I didn't make the rules! 🤷‍♀️

BBC just stated the heatwave is “unequivocally because of human induced climate change.” BBC must now provide proof - not consensus, actual
proof - of this ridiculous claim. If they can’t, they’ve broken their impartiality charter again

@annaturley But it’s false. There are 1,900 fewer teachers on your own stats.

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

Is it OK to put up flags showing that we support countries other than England ?

Or would that intimidate the English legal system ?

And to think that I once trained as a lawyer...

Lucky escape

John Lennon wrote a beautiful song about socialism.

“Imagine no possessions” he told us.

He also:
– helped write his band’s anti-tax anthem, Taxman
– incorporated his IP holdings
– moved to a lower-tax country
– fiercely protected his royalties
- drove two Rolls Royce’s and had multiple luxury homes.
– made sure even the royalty cheques for Imagine were kept safe for his estate so his family would remain wealthy in perpetuity.

If he believed it, he’d have lived it. The trouble with socialism is that even the people who love the idea won’t run the experiment on themselves.

John Lennon writing Imagine while owning two Rolls Royce Phantoms and later having a law suit to protect his royalties tells you all you need to know about socialism in practice.

It doesn’t work outside of the imagination.

My fourth observation from the grooming gang report:

The NHS treated a 13-year-old rape victim for STIs including chlamydia in the throat and vagina, gonorrhoea, genital warts, and pelvic inflammatory disease, and later treated her again for injuries caused by gang rape, without ever once filing a safeguarding referral.

Our precious NHS, which this country treats like a second religion, is happy to lecture pregnant mothers that they are not women but “uterus havers” and “chest feeders”, yet repeatedly failed child rape victims right in front of them.

Britain is broken.

We live in a country where the same people who panic because the TV says 35°C is a "dangerous heat wave" previously injected themselves with an experimental "vaccine" just to go on vacation in countries where 35°C is the norm. Any questions?

Informed consent cannot be given by an 11/12yr old child, and especially not vulnerable ones. Children are being treated like adults & badly behaved adults, like children! We have lost our way!

He is the sock puppet mouthing a twisted ideology. One sock puppet is easily replaced by another that looks different but mouths the same words.

[Andrew Bridgen @ABridgen]

Leaked video of Mark Zuckerberg where he warned his Facebook execs NOT TO GET VACCINATED with the mRNA (COVID) vaccines because "we don't know the long-term side effects of modifying people's DNA & RNA"

He censored doctors, scientists, and the sick who denounced the ��Vaccines"

There are currently 190,000 children in Chicago living below the poverty level.

For the price of the $900 million Obama library, we could have given each one of these poor children in Chicago $4,736.

Am I doing this right?

This is a national emergency. 🚨 over 1,000 illegal migrants in 4 days..
Hardly any of these men will be refused asylum.
Even if they are turned down almost none will be deported.
It’s incredibly dangerous.

Does this decision in any way benefit the British people
whose interest should be the first concern of the British government

I was in a police holding cell for a full 24 hours for defending myself from inbreds, while the inbred who threw a 3-year-old kid into a crocodile enclosure was out in 12 hours.
What strange times we are living in.

Remember, it's illegal to use your phone while driving. Instead, use the giant iPad built into the car and flip through 50 settings to use navigation or turn ac on.
