Aaron Bastani: Notice Lib Dems & Greens working together…
Notice Lib Dems & Greens working together in Birmingham. There’s huge range of councillors, of all parties, across country. This is just childish and petulant. Labour either think locals are best placed to shape their politics, or they don’t. People are tired of London diktat!David Frost: Rachel Reeves’s economic farce…
"Rachel Reeves’s economic farce is about to become a tragedy" There is a Ruritanian feel to British economic policy just now, a kind of comic-opera statism. But the convictions beneath it are far from amusing. My @Telegraph 👇 http://telegraph.co.uk/gift/a837e5ca5…Dale Vince: Wes Streeting is right about this…
Wes Streeting is right about this - we do tax money made with money at half the rate we tax money made with a pair of hands (quote from my book 2020..:) - it’s part of a broad range of tax issues we need to look at, an inherent inequality. But he’s wrong to present this as a wealth tax. And it’s unhelpful to do so, it might be an attempt to burnish his left wing credentials or just a misunderstanding. Equalising these two starkly different rates of tax is actually just the ending of a loophole for the wealthy, a significant advantage they currently have. We call money made with money (investments/assets..) a Capital Gain whereas money made in a job we call Income. That’s fundamentally unjust. Both are forms of income. Our tax system was written by people with money for people with money and it entrenches wealth, clearly - and increases the wealth poverty gap - year in and out. Tax equality is what this is about - some fundamental fairness.Andrew Bridgen: How can the ‘Green movement’ claim…
How can the ‘Green movement’ claim to save the planet when the all the worn out and redundant wind turbines and solar panels are heading to landfill in their millions?Lee Hurst: I have come to the conclusion…
I have come to the conclusion that it’s always better to target the party (Labour) rather than the individual Ministers and MPs that make it up. Why? Well what we are seeing now is some voters hating Starmer, but somehow still willing to give them another go if they replace him. We’ve all been guilty of it. We should ensure future criticism is of the party as a whole.Liz Webster: nails Brexit caller! No plan...
🔥 @mrjamesob nails Brexit caller! No plan, no clue, just anger at immigrants! Once you strip away culture war politics, Brexit defenders still struggle to point to measurable economic gains and fall back on identity/ immigration rather than outcomes.
Diane Abbott: There is a reason for this...
There is a reason for this public misconception. Primarily because the leaders of the three largest political parties and most of our media tell them it is a crisis. Voters across all parties believe net migration is soaring despite fact it is fallingThe Kingdom Is Rallying Against the Government
Tommy Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom march, which took place in the streets of London and reportedly drew a crowd of more than 100,000 people, clearly demonstrated the depth of public dissatisfaction with the current government’s policies.Andrew Feinstein: This Labour Party practice of...
This Labour Party practice of putting up stooge independents to split the vote is what I believe happened to me when I stood against Keir Starmer in the general election. They put up a stooge called Wais Islam to try & split the Muslim vote. To the credit of the local community he was identified as such & lost his deposit! In just 6 weeks our community campaign came 2nd, halving Starmer’s voteAdam Brooks: We have a senior Labour politician...
We have a senior Labour politician who threatened people online with baseball bats and pushing them onto train lines, and who until recently was the Health Secretary. But yeah, a Reform candidate going for a by-election is literally the devil for nothingburger tweets. You idiots.Martin Daubney: IMMIGRATION IS VOTER'S BIGGEST...
📈IMMIGRATION IS VOTER'S BIGGEST ISSUE📈 It's rocketed +9% in a month: A month when Reform hammered Labour in the Red Wall - and their response was "more EU & open borders" It's more important than the economy. Twice as important as the NHS. Three times more important than defenceLiz Webster: Channel 4 confronts Farage…
Channel 4 confronts Farage dodging the £5m donor questions outside Parliament. He literally jumps in his car and drives off … no answers. The “security” money doesn’t even buy him the courage to face basic scrutiny.The Right Are Turning on One Another
One of the most high-profile political scandals in recent months has emerged not from Labour, but from deep divisions within Britain’s right-wing camp. A controversial interview with Ben Habib, current leader of Advance UK, has triggered fierce debate across social media after he effectively suggested that Nigel Farage had been financially influenced during the 2019 general election.Diane Abbott: The British far right is being backed…
The British far right is being backed by American billionaires and encouraged by leading US politicians. They are promoting hate. JD Vance urges British anti-immigrant campaigners to 'keep on going'
Ben Judah: You will see Brexiteers cling to the argument…
▶️ You will see Brexiteers cling to the argument that because the 🇬🇧 grew recently at a similar rate to 🇫🇷 and 🇩🇪 there is no Brexit damage. ▶️ But economists at @GoldmanSachs , @nberpubs and others are not measuring the outcome but rather modelling what 🇬🇧 itself would have achieved had it not done Brexit: i.e. no new trade barriers and no new red tape with our larges market. ▶️ Every serious organisation that has modelled this has found a significant and growing Brexit drag on where the 🇬🇧 economy like have been otherwise. ▶️ What they are saying is we’ve weakened the 🇬🇧 economy to be like 🇫🇷 and 🇩🇪 when we should be growing much faster. ▶️ This is what @nberpubs found in its 2025 paper — “The Economic Impact of Brexit” by Bloom, Bunn, Mizen, Smietanka & Thwaites: 1️⃣ “By 2025, Brexit had reduced 🇬🇧 GDP by 6% to 8%, with the impact accumulating gradually over time” 2️⃣ “Investment was reduced by between 12% and 18%” 3️⃣ “Employment by 3% to 4% and productivity by 3% to 4%” 4️⃣ “These forecasts were accurate over a 5-year horizon, but they underestimated the impact over a decade” “These large negative impacts reflect a combination of elevated uncertainty, reduced demand, diverted management time, and increased misallocation of resources from a protracted Brexit process.” ▶️ How much has this cost us by these calculations? Some £180–240 billion.Liz Webster: @wself opens sore Brexit wounds…
🚨 @wself opens sore Brexit wounds with this piece and he’s right to do so. His reminder of how Brexit broke our constitution, replacing careful parliamentary sovereignty with raw plebiscitary politics cuts deep. That Brexit carbuncle has poisoned our system ever since, it’s indigestible!David Poulden: Vote left-wing... Labour, Lib Dems…
Vote left-wing... Labour, Lib Dems, Greens, the Tories, and this is what you get. Their open-door policies have flooded Britain with people who don't share our values. Young girls are paying the price. Every politician and NGO pushing mass migration needs to be held accountable for the lives they've endangered.Ben Judah: To summarise my point…
To summarise my point: Brexit has led to lower growth and higher inflation, thus a worse fiscal position, necessitating higher interest rates and creating more expensive gilts than we otherwise would have had worsening our gap compared to France since 2020. To summarise @afneil point: the worsening gap with France is purely Truss and Reeves and unlinked to Brexit. Make your own mind up!Luke McGee: There has been a bit of a shift lately…
There has been a bit of a shift lately: people who previously said the Brexit debate was over, so make the best of it, are now saying it's been a great success. Probably a coincidence, but it's coming at the same time as a rejoin debate in the Labour party becomes inevitable, as outlined by top colleague @joncstoneAlex Wickham: BREAKING: The IMF tells Britain…
BREAKING: The IMF tells Britain to stick to its fiscal plans and warns “domestic uncertainty” could hurt the economy It says the UK must continue to reduce borrowing and control welfare And that there is only limited space for tax rises Seems a clear warning to Andy BurnhamJune Slater: On the same day as The Unite The Kingdom Rally…
On the same day as The Unite The Kingdom Rally was the FA cup final . There were 22 arrests at the cup final ( crowd 84,000) There were 20 Arrests at The Unite The Kingdom Rally crowd estimated 300-500, thousands. Pro Pally rally 12 arrests from a crowd of approximately 15-20 thousand. In the last 12 months of the Pro Pally marches Over 3000 arrests have been made . Starmer, Lammy called The Unite The Kingdom Rally A hate march, he is still dividing his own country.Ashok Kumar: Let’s confront Green Party “scandals”…
Let’s confront Green Party “scandals” head-on One day Zack is “too rich” the next “too poor”. He spoke at the Red Cross, while Keir helped kill Gaza Red Cross aid workers. Zack worked for an MoJ agency, Keir’s MoJ illegally mass arrested anti-genocide activists The real scandal
Liz Webster: The desperate “betrayal” narrative from Brexiteers…
The desperate “betrayal” narrative from Brexiteers falls flat bc Brexit delivered the opposite of what it promised - quadrupled immigration, higher prices, red tape, economic underperformance, and political chaos. 59%+ now want to rejoin the EU. 🚨John Smith: The Labour Party as a political party…
The Labour Party as a political party for the people is dead. It will not return. You cant forgive a Party that brought you the Iraq War and thought so little of the innocent dead murdered in the conflict that they embraced Israel's genocide of Palestinians as if it were their own.Aaron Bastani: Labour really need to snap…
Labour really need to snap out of doom mongering and just using project fear against opponents - to their left and right. The central party tried this before May elections. It’s killing them! Just years of depressing people.Paul Joseph Watson: The dodgy vape shops…
The dodgy vape shops, Turkish barbers and American candy stores are fronts for cirminal people smuggling. That's why there's now so many of them in the UK. This was known for years, but the BBC is finally catching on.Dale Vince: Labour should act on this…
Labour should act on this, properly enforce licence conditions, squeeze these foreign owned entities until the pips squeak - they're polluting our country and enriching themselves - in the worst example of what privatisation has to offer. We don’t have to accept this status quo. https://thetimes.com/uk/environment/article/water-companies-worst-2025-pollution-ever-sewage-9dvkcpvtw?utm_source=chatgpt.comKathy Gyngell: This is MY first-hand account of the #UTK rally…
This is MY first-hand account of the #UTK rally: gospel singers, a barnstorming Welsh bishop, half a million plus demanding free speech and an end to uncontrolled mass immigration. The MSM pretended it wasn't happening. @elonmusk was right: you are the media! Thank you again @TRobinsonNewEraKathy Gyngell: David @DrDStarkeyCBE nailed it…
David @DrDStarkeyCBE nailed it: as Starmer's premiership collapses, he's using his last breath to uphold the two-tier system he built. Why is he so frightened of @TRobinsonNewEra and the #UTK rally?
