We lost because the @UKLabour Peers were on a 3 line whip .. and teamed up with the @LibDems .. and @TheGreenParty We @Conservatives tabled the amendments to stop 🛑 it .. More than 100 of us fought the fight last night .. But remember this began in the @HouseofCommons when @ keir Starmer railroaded this into the Crime and Policing Bill with no debate then sent to us.. We cannot beat them in numbers with their huge majority .. but we certainly gave it our best !

@jfoster2019 @jemmm85517813 @cabinetofficeuk @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour Spot on!

You mean .. now it is all by ‘patronage’ by political leaders .. Since the election @Keir_Starmer has appointed nearly .. 100 new @UKLabour Peers .. despite moaning about the overall size of the House ! 3 of them @UKLabour have been unable to take their seats for various reasons 🤔 So whoever posted this has absolutely no understanding of the roles the Hereditary Peers played over the centuries … A vindictive decision by the ‘left’ but predictable.. Still fighting the 70’s Class War .. Discriminated against because of who their father was … and already agreed that once they retired that none of their sons would ever follow suit !!

This is the biggest reform to our Parliament in a generation. 🇬🇧 This morning, the 700-year-old system of hereditary membership in the House of Lords was abolished. Membership is now earned through public service and merit, not granted by an inheritance. ✅

I lived in the United Arab Emirates for 12 years and never saw anything like this. Why was it necessary in Trafalgar Square? What was it trying to prove?

Oh, dear! 🤭

😔🙏

And let's be clear, the Adhān is a declaration of spiritual authority over the space where it is proclaimed. In Islamic tradition, the public recitation of the Adhān signals that the area is under Islamic rule. It’s a proclamation of God’s greatness and the call to submit to His will as revealed in Islam. In other words, Khan and his ilk hate you.

The disgraceful attacks on @NJ_Timothy - from the Prime Minister down - for having raised concerns about mass Islamic outdoor public prayer shows the scale of the disaster we face in the UK. Islamists have convinced many that a very uncommon act in this country - which public outdoor prayer is, regardless of who initiates it - is somehow Islamophobic to criticise. It isn’t. We have a very limited tradition of public outdoor prayer here, with religion customarily being seen as a private matter and confined to places of worship except on days of national significance (eg Remembrance Sunday). It is not remotely extreme to suggest that the Trafalgar Square incident serves the agenda of Islamists who see it as an essential part of their goal to change this country’s mores and behaviours to suit their agenda. And for the avoidance of any doubt, there is no issue with a religious celebration taking place in public (eg an iftar gathering). This is specifically about normalising the statutory prayers of a religion in the public space, which is a provocative practice that Nick has been right to call out.

Listen & weep. 😔

The official definition of Islamophobia — now repackaged as “anti-Muslim hostility” — will be used to suppress legitimate criticism of Islam and its practices. We are already seeing this play out. Less than a week after the Communities Secretary, Steve Reed, published the definition — assuring the public it would not stifle legitimate criticism of Islam — Nick Timothy is facing calls to resign after criticising mass ritual prayer by Muslims in Trafalgar Square. He has been accused of “anti-Muslim hostility” by a Labour MP and reported to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. This is a Muslim blasphemy law by the back door. Today, the Free Speech Union has sent a pre-action letter to Steve Reed, threatening judicial review if the definition and guidance are not withdrawn immediately. This is one of the biggest fights we’ve taken on in our six-year history. Help us stop the Government’s de facto Muslim blasphemy law 👇

Oops! 🤭

@EYakoby And all the West including @Keir_Starmer @EmmanuelMacron @MarkJCarney ? Silent. Well done. Slow handclap 👏

Today, the Islamic Republic hanged multiple Iranian civilians, some of whom were just teenagers. Amnesty International? Silent. The UN? Silent. Human Rights Council? Silent. The Red Cross? Silent.

These are the 2 Labour MPs who pushed through the change to Abortion Law. They also voted AGAINST the Rape Gang Inquiry! Stella Creasy MP - Walthamstow and Tonia Antoniazzi MP for Gower ! Both are MOTHERS !!!!! @pinkladies_uk @RestoreBritain_

Firstly, GB News was the only channel that covered your spring conference. Secondly, another sub postmaster died yesterday awaiting compensation, perhaps you should use PMQs to highlight these issues.

Here's hoping this is genuine. 🙏

I’m sorry Saleh 💔😔 I’m really sorry. I tried so hard to save your life, but I couldn’t. I’m so sorry 😭 Today, the Iranian regime hanged Saleh Mohammadi, a 19-year-old wrestling champion. Despite the war and the killing of many of its leaders, the Iranian regime remains in power. So much so that it continues to execute our nation’s brightest talents. 💔 #saleh_mohammadi

What’s the point of the Speaker of the House if he doesn’t make @Keir_Starmer answer the bloody questions on Mandelson? It’s a pantomime.

Brilliant Press conference between Donald Trump and the Prime Minister of Japan❗️ A Japanese journalist asked “If Japan and America are such good friends, why did you not tell us in advance about the attack on Iran?” Trump answered “You’ve gotta do these things secretly. I mean, you didn’t tell us that you were gonna bomb Pearl Harbour, did you? You guys are the experts about doing things in secret!”

Will you join me in making this pledge? They cannot scrap juries unless we as a profession are complicit. We have the right to say no. Barristers, solicitors, paralegals and caseworkers up and down the land. Without us they have no Lammy Diplock Courts. Make your voice heard.

BREAKING: The Iranian women’s national soccer team has returned to Iran. They are now all veiled and look terrified. UN Women did not once say a word about them.

@NJ_Timothy 💯 One could write a book on Afzal Khan’s misdemeanours but here’s a few in this thread… x.com/sirwg202110/st…
