BREAKING: The UK House of Lords has just voted to legalise ABORTION UP TO BIRTH. We are led by truly evil people. Unspeakably wicked. They have no place leading us. Reform, Restore, and the Tories MUST commit THIS WEEK to overturning this if they enter government.

Ridiculous statelets like Germany, the UK, or France refuse Trump’s request for help in the Strait of Hormuz. But luckily, there are the founding members of Trumps Board of Peace. The navies of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Hungary, Kosovo, et al. will step in. In together, out together.

@stuart_clegg @DPJHodges Dan was quite definitive in his correction of the original post. He’s using hearsay as evidence, which is not demonstrably true. I’m not correcting him, I’m criticising him.

@speakjava @DPJHodges Jon Craig also wasn’t at the meeting so presumable you don’t believe him either. And aren’t you correcting Dan without knowing the facts??

Does anybody else think that UK car insurance is a cartel-driven scam? How do last year's premiums double when the personal and vehicle details have not changed and inflation has been in single digits?

@WasAcop I'd rather have him than someone who would take us into a war that has no UN resolution, has no clear objectives and no plan for how to end it.

@AllisonPearson Once again, Allison proves just how incompetent a so-called "journalist" she is. Let me help you out: This. Is. Not. A. General. Election. Literally nobody could vote for Labour in May, and it would not *require* Starmer to resign.

Only 52 days. 52 days until the most hated PM in history, this strange soulless man, this nasal android is punched in the chops by Wales. Labour’s most humiliating defeat ever is coming! Starmer will be finished. 52 days! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 💥🔥

Working together with our allies, we are continuing our diplomatic response to the situation in the Middle East. This matters for Britain’s security, and the cost of living. Brilliant to see you today, @MarkJCarney - and happy birthday!

IDEA How about we set a legal, simplified tax rate. 15% for everyone on all their income. No personal allowance. Just a flat rate of 15%. Then… The government can only spend that much. No more. It has to live within its means. How about that? Maybe we can the. pay off the debt and then cut the 15% rate further. Sounds like a plan to ne.

@SeddSezz And yet, he is our democratically elected Prime Minister, with a large majority in the House of Commons. You, on the other hand, are a keyboard warrior whose opinion nobody could care less about.

🚨STARMER REFUSES TO SEND SHIPS TO HELP REOPEN STRAIT OF HORMUZ Oil prices are elevated and Britain’s oil and gas reserves are extraordinarily low. Starmer couldn’t care less about ordinary people’s pockets. He repeatedly spits in Trump’s face. He is a weak, pathetic prick who should be NOWHERE NEAR Downing Street!

Rumor: Tesla is going to build its own EUV lithography machines because ASML is “too slow.” to supply to the new chip plant. ASML currently produces <100 EUV machines per year. Apparently that’s not fast enough for Elon Musk. The new plan: • 1,000 EUV machines per week starting 2027 • 10,000 per week by 2028 And since HBM memory is also a bottleneck, Tesla will casually build 10 new memory fabs in the next two years producing 5× the rest of the industry combined. Meanwhile, Micron Technology, SK Hynix, and Samsung Electronics are panicking.

There was a feeling at the end of the last Tory government among some that it can’t get much worse. A Labour government would be bad, but not much different. Boy were they wrong. It got worse. Much, much worse. Labour has been catastrophic. Maybe irreparably so.

@CPhilpOfficial How is it you’re not able to write English? According to you, this poor woman’s daughter was in a small boat with an illegal immigrant when she was murdered. I’m certain that’s not what happened.

I met Siobhan, whose daughter Rhiannon was murdered by an illegal immigrant in a small boat She rightly blames the government for letting him into the country He arrived in late July 2024 and would have been eligible to be deported to Rwanda. If Labour had allowed the Rwanda scheme to start as planned, maybe Rhiannon would still be alive today

Let me dust off my crystal ball and explain what's going to happen here. Iran is going to lose this war. Their ability to terrorize the region will be over. This will usher in a new era of peace and prosperity in the Middle East. Hezbollah and Hamas will be eliminated. Once the war ends, which should be within the next month or so, gas prices will fall to their lowest levels in years. All of the recent stock market losses will recover and more. Once Hamas is gone, places like Gaza will be rebuilt to rival the beauty of Dubai. The Republicans will win the House and the Senate in the midterms. MAGA will dominate DC for a generation. And that's the way it is.
