Liz Webster: Brexit has damaged UK investment…

🚨 Brexit has damaged UK investment, growth, trade and productivity. The UK used to comfortably outperform France, Germany and Italy. That advantage has gone. GDP per head has lagged behind major EU peers since 2016. The post-Brexit immigration surge has masked some of the weakness in underlying performance. Public opinion has shifted dramatically. A majority now believe Brexit was a mistake, with polls suggesting a rejoin referendum could pass by a big margin. The current “reset” under Starmer is delivering very little, just 0.3% of GDP over 15 years according to some estimates.

Lee Hurst: Every single one of these rapes…

Every single one of these rapes, or robberies or murders, without exception, has this Labour govt and the previous Tory govt as accomplices through their choice of inaction. Also complicit are the ‘refugee welcome’ cultists who will tolerate no criticism of the people they support. These fakeugees should all be detained on arrival until they can be deported without exception. They have no need to come to Britain, they are already safe in France so no amount of attempted guilt tripping by the Lefturds will alter my view.

June Slater: It's clear Starmer has no interest…

It's clear Starmer has no interest in the people of this country. He even told us he prefers Davos to Westminster 'because you can get things done.' But what does that mean, well it means he doesn't have to get legislation passed the voting public or Westminster .he can just do it. If you think you're going to get anything different from Andy Burnham, think again. He's already beaten Starmer to the WEF door. Recognised at an early age as an ideal poster boy for globalisation, all he needs is an opportunity back to real power. Mayoral isn't big enough for Andy, his whole working life has been funded by the tax payer. If he makes it to number 10 Britain will be funding global ideas with tax payers' money. This isn't about Makerfield for Andy it's about being a hot shot on the world stage . I keep reminding you the communists have won, they're in number 10 . We're fighting to get the ground back. Makerfield is as significant as The Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485 where political history was changed forever. It's a two horse race as Robert Kenyon, Reform, beat all other parties in the General Election and strained 31% of the vote he came second to Labour . Don't let this happen again. Embrace your national significance or die on the field or intensified socialism.

Liz Webster: The Times Starmer’s govt is...

🚨 The Times: Starmer’s govt is politicising the justice system Former DPP Sir Max Hill warning that the handling of Palestine Action cases risks breaking public trust in the judiciary. 🔥 Uneven approach: heavy crackdowns on left/pro-Palestine activism while appearing softer on right-wing extremism. 🔥 Rise in “perverse verdicts” as juries act on conscience against perceived unfair prosecutions. 🔥 Proscription of Palestine Action as a terrorist group seen as overly broad and politically driven. This is seriously dangerous territory. When governments selectively weaponise terrorism laws and override jury independence to pursue political goals, they erode the independence and legitimacy of the justice system. @KarlTurnerMP @labourlewis @mainstreamlbr

Andy Burnham’s Victory Offers Little Hope of Real Change for Britain

Andy Burnham’s Victory Offers Little Hope of Real Change for Britain The outcome of the by-election in Makerfield, where Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham is expected to stand, has sparked heated debate across British social media. Many commentators have reached the same conclusion: even if Burnham succeeds in replacing Prime Minister Keir Starmer, very little is likely to change for the country.

Alex Wickham: New: Tony Blair says Labour is “playing with fire”…

New: Tony Blair says Labour is “playing with fire” and risking the country’s future by changing prime minister “The Labour Party is playing with fire; or, more accurately with its future, and that of the country.” “Whether there is a leadership change or not is irrelevant if it doesn't start with a policy debate.” “Trying to force the Prime Minister out before we know what policy direction we're bringing in, is not a serious way of conducting ourselves.” Blair also blasts Keir Starmer’s government for being too left-wing “The Government is governing from an essentially traditional Labour ‘soft left’ position, parked firmly in the Party’s comfort zone… in the last Budget, it appeared as if we were increasing tax to pay for additional welfare spending, when the public already thinks welfare bills are too high” Via @LucyGJWhite >>

Dale Vince: Another Reform member and another example…

Another Reform member and another example of Racism, Sexism and Islamophobia. Reform is a melting pot of bad people. A limited company with a dodgy leader who takes foreign money, sometimes in secret - who literally said anything for money in his Cameo stint. The beer swilling, fag smoking donkey that ‘led’ us to Brexit. https://thetimes.com/uk/politics/article/nigel-farage-preacher-stephen-clayden-97t2v7vvq

Liz Webster: Janan Ganesh is right that Brexit Britain…

🇬🇧 Janan Ganesh is right that Brexit Britain has become more fragmented, distrustful and interventionist. BUT he misses the central reason. It’s not bc Britons are secretly French-style statists who finally discovered their inner Europeanness. It’s because the public were sold contradictions/lies in Brexit. Voters were promised: • Lower immigration • Stronger public services (£350m for the NHS) • More sovereignty • Less bureaucracy • Greater prosperity • With no trade-offs At the same time, libertarian Brexit ideologues imagined “Singapore-on-Thames” while millions of voters actually wanted protection, security and national renewal. Those visions were never aligned. 🎧 👇
