Make the Boomers do it for their state pension. Getting out would improve their physical and mental health. Which would also save the NHS money…

@cleanupbritain Most households on UC are in work. Do these people now have to do a second job picking litter too?

Of course it does! Who wouldn't? It has just seen the UK needlessly hand out enough billions of dollars to literally allow an entire country to abolish income tax. The leaders in Nicosia aren't stupid: they will pursue exactly the same process. Who wouldn't? Now, because of our foolishness, egged on by a small number of human rights lawyers from Matrix Chambers, we are going to have to -- at the very least -- use diplomatic capital to put out these fires. The EU will support Cyprus, magnifying its power by many times. Gibraltar next, folks.

Our political class is insane. A war in Iran is escalating and threatening serious damage to the global economy, while the Channel migrant crisis carries on unchecked. And what are the talking heads in SW1 focused on? Kanye West. It’s absurd.
Keir Starmer@Keir_Starmer

Kanye West should never have been invited to headline Wireless. This government stands firmly with the Jewish community, and we will not stop in our fight to confront and defeat the poison of antisemitism. We will always take the action necessary to protect the public and uphold our values.

Energy isn't the only thing we should worry about when thinking about the war in Iran. We import 3/4 of our medicine, and NHS medicine shipments also have to navigate through the Strait of Hormuz... New piece from me in the @Telegraph👇

We could use this money to defend our country and secure our future prosperity by increasing defence spending, investing in R&D, or developing a space programme. Instead we waste it on bungs for boomers. Time to abolish the Triple Lock.
Department for Work and Pensions@DWPgovuk

Five years on, the Batley teacher who showed a cartoon in a free speech lesson is still in hiding – cleared of any wrongdoing, but abandoned, traumatised and with his life in pieces. dailysceptic.org/2026/04/05/wha…
