A TIPPING POINT FOR THE WEST POSOBIEC: “It's people standing up and fighting for the preservation of our societies and Western civilization, because Henry Nowak was murdered by a migrant…When the police showed up, they took the side of the stabber”

Muslims want to censor the works of white European men in British schools. Anti white hatred in UK is unprecedented.

Andy Burnham's business rates proposals would lead to significant food price inflation. Here's why: He has proposed abolishing business rates entirely for shops, cafes, & hairdressers; increasing the business rates exemption from £12k to £18k tapering to £21k, & implementing a 20% rates cut for pubs, clubs & music venues This would cost respectively £6.5bn, £800m & £120m. He claims the money can be recouped from higher taxes on large e-commerce warehouses / tech giants’ warehouses. This is pure fantasy. The government says its high-value multiplier will make 1,900 distribution warehouses pay about £90m more a year. To cover the cost of Burnham's rate reduction elsewhere, their bill would have to go up by £7.4 billion a year, i.e. many multiples higher Amazon's warehouses have a rateable value of some £60-£70m. The biggest operators of distribution warehouses are in fact supermarkets, notably Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda, Aldi, Lidl, M&S, John Lewis & Ocado. Even if Burnham waters down his unworkable £7.4bn scheme to say only £1bn that additional cost is going to be passed straight through to consumers. Amazon will also pass on the increased costs to its 30m British customers. People won't be happy. It's sad that Burnham won't countenance the only real solution, which is to reduce public spending.
