Yeah I suddenly walked into a TV presenting job with the click of a finger… I worked in Sainsbury’s, for EDF Energy, the water board, call centres, all from age 17, just to get money. I didn’t care what job I did, I just needed to support myself. I said yes to everything, trusting that I’d one day get there and everything would work itself out. I didn’t turn down jobs because it wasn’t my field or what I wanted or dreamed of right that minute or think I was above anything or anyone. I had no money. I never went to uni. I saved hard for a £5,000 journalism course, I then worked like a dog at local newspapers (still on minimum wage) and at a bookmaker at the same time doing 20 hour days for years just to keep grinding. I spent more hard years commuting to London and back, doing graveyard shifts at papers then waiting at Blackfriars station at 3 in the morning to get home to Sussex and start my other job at 9am. It nearly killed me. For years. 16 years it took me to get here. And you know what? I loved it all. I loved the journey, I loved the dark moments asking myself if it was all worth it. I loved the wins. I loved the hard lessons. And I love what I’m doing now. Yes I have the best job in the world (for me) and I’m incredibly grateful. And I’m still grinding. I’ve just done 14 days straight, travelling to Texas, Florida, then DC. Doing a three hour show every night. But I recognise how fortunate I am. I always have, even when I was stacking shelves. I didn’t just turn up at a studio and start presenting. Most importantly I never played the victim.

What nonsense you write. These aren’t facts. We’re entitled to “think” what we like. It’s our perception as are people who live there. I used to live in Tower Hamlets but I wouldn’t go anywhere near it now nor anywhere else in London unless I have to pass through it. It was bad enough for me there 10 years ago. Are you seriously telling me I’m not allowed to have a point of view anymore?

85% of Reform UK voters think London is unsafe. 63% of people who actually live here say it is safe. That gap was created deliberately. The dystopia is a lie. #London #ReformUK #Farage #Politics

My parents lived through the extreme depression poverty of the 1930s, a major world war, the Blitz, several epidemics, post-war need and want, not able to own their own house until their mid-30s - and my Mum at 95 isn't whining and whingeing like a loser. The 'boomers' that you berate lived with 15 - 17 per cent interest rates, Spanish flu, three day weeks, the 1973 oil shock, frequent power shortages, dreadful public transport, endless strikes, high taxes and the bloody Osmonds.

While we’re all being encouraged to argue over the state pension and who “deserves” it, here’s a nice little statutory instrument from 2013: The Pensions Increase (Pension Scheme for Keir Starmer QC) Regulations 2013 — quietly tucking the former DPP’s scheme into the official up-rating rules so it rises nicely with inflation, protected and looked after. That’s the reality. Governments of all stripes raid the NI pot that ordinary workers paid into under one set of promises, break the earnings link when it suits, lecture everyone else about “affordability,” and make sure their own arrangements (and those of senior officials) get the gentle treatment. Direct the ire where it belongs: at the broken system and the endless grift. Not at today’s pensioners who paid their stamps in good faith. My grandparents got shafted too. My parents did as well. Now the same machine is pitting the next generation against them while the money disappears into the general slush fund. Round and round we go — unless we stop falling for the distraction.

For the first time ever, the true cost of the Chagos Islands Deal is now in legal writing UK taxpayers would pay at least £50bn to give away the Chagos Islands and rent back our own territory of Diego Garcia Not Starmer's £3bn Not £36bn Not £46bn But £50bn+ Let that sink in

Might be an idea to go und out more about legal procedure before you blindly condemn various actions 👇👇👇 Last year when I saw Nigel announce a grooming gang inquiry . I rang Maggie Oliver to tell her. I assumed it was good news. She enlightened me . She said we don't need another inquiry , if it has no statutory powers it cannot summon the wrong doers to court . All the evidence has been gathered it's all in the Alexis Jay Inquiry which took 7 years of harrowing interviews and cost £186.6 million pounds. So I suggested Nigel spoke to Maggie and find out more. He did and he stood down from the idea . Many survivors , huge numbers don't want it taking up again. They've moved on, had families and find the whole thing disturbing . Others are willing to be more public. The problem is this . The government did not act on any of the seven pillars that were promised . So Maggie Oliver was pushing forward with trying to get a Judicial Review which will have statutory powers. In early March 3026 Maggie after 12 months hard work was granted a hearing and secured a Judicial Review. Nigel had her on GB News she was also on Talk Radio and Nigel promoted her crowd funder on his social media . The work continues. Maggie's experience and careful handling have proved invaluable over the last 20 years as government after government have ignored these crimes against children

BREAKING: Britain has fewer than 50 Storm Shadow cruise missiles left. The stockpile that once exceeded 200 was drained over two years of transfers to Ukraine to help Kyiv strike Russian targets deep behind the front line. The missiles worked. They hit command posts and ammunition depots and naval headquarters across occupied Ukraine and Crimea. They helped Ukraine survive. And now Britain has almost none left for itself, during a war being launched from its own airfields against a country that just hit a British oil facility with drones. Brimstone anti-armour missiles sit at 25 to 35 percent of pre-war stocks. Paveway IV precision-guided bombs, the same weapon the RAF used over Libya and Syria, are at 30 to 40 percent. The National Audit Office estimates that Britain can sustain high-intensity combat operations for three to six weeks before requiring American resupply. Three to six weeks. The Iran war is already in its fifth week. If Britain were fighting it rather than hosting it, the cupboard would already be empty. The Army is 10,000 soldiers below target. Type 45 destroyers suffer chronic propulsion failures requiring six to twelve months of repair. The F-35 and Typhoon fleet operates at 60 to 70 percent availability. The industrial base that would replenish stocks runs on rare-earth magnets manufactured in China, the same China that controls 90 percent of the permanent magnets in every guided missile Britain would need to fire and is currently being asked to broker the peace. Any direct involvement beyond basing would require 8 to 15 billion pounds in emergency supplemental spending. National debt exceeds 100 percent of GDP. There is no majority in Parliament for funding a war the Prime Minister says is not Britain’s, fought with weapons Britain does not have, replenished by supply chains controlled by a country Britain needs to broker the ceasefire. This is why Starmer says “not our war.” Not because of principle. Not because of legality, although his own advisors have told him the strikes are legally questionable. Not because of Iraq, although the ghost of Blair hangs over every press conference. Because of arithmetic. Britain gave its missiles to Ukraine. It gave its bases to America. It gave its diplomatic capital to a 35-nation meeting about reopening Hormuz “after the fighting stops.” And it has nothing left to give except words, which cost nothing and accomplish less. Trump knows this. He mocked the Royal Navy in the Telegraph interview. He dismissed Starmer’s windmills. He called NATO a “paper tiger” because the paper is literal: Britain’s defence capability exists on paper. On the tarmac and in the magazines and in the recruitment offices, the numbers tell a different story. The story says that one of the six largest economies on earth, the country that once ruled a quarter of the planet, cannot sustain a shooting war for longer than six weeks without calling Washington for resupply. The bases are full. The aircraft are American. The missiles are gone. The debt is real. And the Prime Minister stands at the podium and says this is not our war while the war takes off from our runways carrying weapons we could not replace if we tried. Britain is not refusing to fight. Britain cannot fight. The doctrine is not a choice. It is an inventory report. And the inventory says zero. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

Mr Starmer, The world is watching. And for once, I’m not here to play nice or balance both sides. This is the one shot I get to say what millions already know in their bones. You are not Britain’s Prime Minister. You are a man who won an election and immediately began dismantling the very things the British people voted for in 2016. You are squatting in Downing Street while steering the country back into the arms of the institution it explicitly rejected. If you will not stand down, the British people will make you. Here is every claim you made today, stripped bare, no spin, no mercy: 1. “The Middle East conflict has now entered its second month.” Thank you for the calendar update. While you counted months, the IRGC a group formally designated as terrorists by the United States, Canada, and others, continued running its London operations from 16 Prince’s Gate, Knightsbridge. You did nothing. 2. “The UK is working at pace for de-escalation and peace.” Translation: we issued strongly worded statements. Results: zero. Your “pace” is the speed of a snail on tranquillisers. 3. “The war will affect the future of our country, energy and cost of living.” It already is. Your green ideology and EU realignment have left Britain with some of the highest energy prices in the developed world. Pensioners choose between heating and eating. That’s not “the war.” That’s policy. 4. “We are well-placed with a long-term plan to emerge stronger and more secure.” Record taxes. 7.5 million people on NHS waiting lists. Record small-boat crossings. Energy bills that could bankrupt households. If this is your definition of “stronger and more secure,” the English language just filed for divorce. 5. “I held meetings with business leaders…” Photo opportunities. They warned you. You smiled for the cameras and carried on regardless. 6. “Energy bills will be cut today and fixed until July.” A £117 cap that your own NI increases and green levies have already vaporised. It’s not relief. It’s an insult dressed up as compassion. 7. “The most effective way to support the cost of living is to push for reopening the Strait of Hormuz.” Then why did you help shut down North Sea production and make us dependent on foreign energy? The hypocrisy is so thick you could spread it on toast. 8. “The UK is taking back control of our energy security by investing in clean British energy.” Britain now pays the highest industrial electricity prices in Europe. Blackouts are on the menu. This is not “taking back control.” This is self-sabotage with better PR. 9. “Because the world is volatile, Britain’s long-term national interest now requires closer partnership with the EU.” Let’s be honest for once: you are using a foreign crisis as cover to hand sovereignty, money, and decision-making back to Brussels without asking the British people. That is not statesmanship. That is betrayal by stealth. 10. “I will announce a new summit with the EU later this year…” Re-joining by the back door while an Iranian terror-linked operation sits in one of London’s most expensive postcodes. The sheer gall is almost impressive. You stood at the podium today and spoke of “British interests” while actively working against them. You swore you wouldn’t rejoin the EU. You are doing it anyway. You talk of security while leaving a designated terror network untouched in central London. You lecture about the cost of living while your policies make it worse. The mask is not slipping, Keir. It has fallen off and shattered on the floor. The British people see you clearly now: a politician who values international approval and Brussels goodwill more than the nation that elected him. You are not leading Britain. You are managing its managed decline. The clock is ticking. Not in secret. Not in silence. Out loud, in broad daylight, across every pub, every kitchen table, every X feed and every street in this country. History does not forgive those who sell their own people’s sovereignty for applause. Britain did not vote for this. Britain does not want this. And Britain will not tolerate this forever. The reckoning is coming. And it will not be kind. Britain First. No Surrender. 🦁🇬🇧

Mr Starmer, On this day, 31 March 2026, history will record your actions with clinical precision. There you stood in Downing Street, warmly shaking the hand of Ahmed al-Sharaa, the former commander of al-Qaeda’s Syrian franchise, architect of jihad, suicide bombings and the slaughter of innocents. The cameras captured every second of Britain’s latest act of surrender while you grinned like a gracious host receiving an honoured guest. Only weeks earlier, you declared Muslims the new face of England and allowed a known Palestinian terrorist to lean in and whisper instructions in your ear while you nodded obediently like the spineless puppet you are. You have destroyed relations with our greatest ally, Donald J. Trump. You have betrayed every oath you ever swore. You have handed this nation over to its enemies piece by piece while rewarding traitors like Sadiq Khan with peerages. You are not a Prime Minister. You are a traitor who has deliberately dismantled Britain from within. Your name will be remembered with nothing but contempt. Britain First. No Surrender. 🦁🇬🇧

Not much leaves me gasping for air… I think this has done it. Starmer’s new economic plan is: “We’ve spent everything, now you have to help me, pleeeeeeeease.” After funnelling taxpayers’ cash into green energy, welfare hikes, MPs’ pay rises, a 26% boost for junior doctors, £ millions to the EU, £ billions to Ukraine, and £ billions more to foreign climate aid projects… He now expects UK businesses, already crushed by their stupid net zero, tax increases and new regulations…. to drop their prices? There’s nothing left. He is utterly deranged 🤡
