@Angl0Phil @lewis_goodall Curious about your source for this stabbing incident. Can you proceed.

Enrique Tarrio is not unusual. Many of those I spoke to at CPAC entirely agree with him (the former chairman of a far right organisation). The belief that Britain and Europe have “fallen” and that the US is the last bastion of Western civilisation is ubiquitous.

“If you want to call me bigoted, that’s fine. Islamaphobic? Yes! I own it.” @lewis_goodall challenges former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio on what he calls the “immigration problem” in the UK.

@AaronBastani Captain subversive at it again pretending that Blair and Brown wouldn't have emptied a sovereign wealth fund on day 1 and spent it on a new town called 'Diversity'.
English
Counter-argument:
She spunked North Sea oil and Goldilocks demographics.
Britain should have had a TGV, plus Norwegian style sovereign wealth fund.
Today a publicly owned air carrier in BA, with an ad campaign featuring Henry Cavill, should be a political aspiration.

Thatcher inherited a Britain where the state owned everything from steel mills to telephone lines. Unemployment hit 11.9% in 1984, inflation ran at 18% when she took office, and strikes paralyzed entire industries for months (the three-day work week wasn't a lifestyle choice). She privatized British Telecom in 1984, British Gas in 1986, and rolled back union power that had strangled productivity for decades. The results speak louder than any economic theory: Britain's GDP per capita rose from $10,000 in 1980 to $19,000 by 1990. Critics still blame her for "inequality" - missing the point entirely. You can't redistribute wealth that doesn't exist first. The alternative wasn't some egalitarian paradise... it was Argentina.

@ItsTaz1989 Based on what evidence?
Nick Timothy was Chief of Staff to Theresa May?! The wokest politician we have had in decades who did unmeasurable damage to this country (net zero, modern slavery etc).
His career should have ended in 2017. He's a clown.
English
This is an interesting observation. A Nick Timothy Tory Party would be more conservative than a Zia Yusuf Reform Party. That's almost certainly true. The irony is, Kemi Badenoch is probably closer to Zia Yusuf than she is Nick Timothy. Both are economic liberals, Timothy is Tory.
S. I. Rubinstein@si_rubinstein
@johnkroencke Train of thought sparked by this recent shift. A Zia Yusuf Reform Party would probably be a lot more economically liberal than a Nick Timothy Tory Party... ft.com/content/be4b6c…

@maxtempers The best thing about the meme is he still pushes this tripe. He is utterly convinced he's right.

I am increasingly drifting into the opinion that this is fine. Not good, but fine. We can import our salt instead. Sodium substitutes are available. Unami-rich alternatives are imported. And we add value at the high end where sodium content doesn't matter.
Joe Weisenthal@TheStalwart
For the first time in history, the UK could become a net importer of salt. spiked-online.com/2026/03/26/the…

@WonderingHero0 @lewis_goodall America is leading the AI revolution. They are decades ahead with electrical cars, self driving vehicle and space travel.
All the biggest companies in the world are American.
Your post is totally false, it's pure cope.
English
@lewis_goodall Americans have always been and always will be deluded.
It’s why their country hasn’t changed much in 50 years despite the economic success

@AcademicAgent_X Either you're wrong or every single poll is.
Reform are going to crush this election.
The legacy parties are zombies. They are already dead, they just don't know it.

Reform will underperform in May and Starmer will still be there in 2029

‘The voters can deliver a decisive blow that would mean Starmer would be out of office by the end of May!’ Reform UK Leader Nigel Farage MP gives a devastating prediction of the impact of the local elections on the Prime Minister's premiership.

NOW - Dame Sarah Mullally is officially "enthroned" as the Archbishop of Canterbury, head of the Church of England, becoming the first woman to take the role in 1,400 years.

@albieamankona @estherckrakue We invented a term for our shared culture centuries ago. It is BRITISH.
English refers to a group of people with English DNA.
The only people who fail to understand this are not English and want to be, but can't.
English
People are arguing against a position that no one is actually making.
No one is saying a woman of Ghanaian heritage born in England is ethnically English.
The argument is this: you can be civically English without being ethnically English.
Take @estherckrakue and me.
We both have Ghanaian surnames and neither of us are white. She is fully ethnically Ghanaian. I am half ethnically Ghanaian and half ethnically English.
So I am ethnically and civically English. She is not ethnically English, but she is still civically English.
That is the entire point people keep dodging.
We both live here. We have both integrated. That makes us both English in a civic sense.
The real disagreement is this:
Some people want “English” to be ethnic only, and push everyone else into “British”.
But the public does not think that way.
Polling shows most people are comfortable calling black and brown Brits English in a civic sense.
So what is this really about?
Why are some people so determined to pretend civic English identity doesn’t exist?

@trevgoes4th Another win for the wealthy boomers.
Triple lock mogged again. Sad.

@L3Mve1 Why can't we have pubs were smoking is allowed and some where it isn't?
Why do people have to ban things for everyone?
English
Crazy. Farage has forgotten the likes of Roy Castle, and that, actually, the ban protects the freedom of others to enter spaces without choking on other people’s decision to smoke. The smoker’s freedom is not a genuine liberty when it causes harm to others.

@albieamankona @montie @reformparty_uk @RobertJenrick @danny__kruger @SuellaBraverman An endorsement from you proves Matts point lol
English
What has @montie done for @reformparty_uk? @RobertJenrick @danny__kruger @SuellaBraverman et al. would not have defected to Reform were it not for Tim.
What has Matt Goodwin done for Reform? Lost a by-election to the Greens and then published a book so poorly put together that it has tarnished his reputation and Reform's.
Well done.
Matt Goodwin@GoodwinMJ
What Reform should do is stop taking Tory Wets like you. I've responded to my critics here (x.com/GoodwinMJ/stat…). All you do is criticise Reform & our campaigns. I have no idea why you are even in Reform unless it is to try and weaken it?
English
@ButlersRanger @anglofuturist Yes we do, which is why we don't need anymore via a Canadian backdoor.

@Angl0Phil @anglofuturist The irony of a Brit moaning about migration. You’ve got it much worse

CANZUK is one of the most 2019-2020 concepts I can think of. A brief moment of optimism before all of the countries involved got crushed by post-Covid migration. It wouldn't work in the modern world, especially not how it was imagined back then.
Andrew Griffith MP@griffitha
As the world becomes more challenging, it's time to strengthen our oldest ties. CANZUK would be a £8 Trillion alliance of 140 million of the most educated, like-minded, and ambitious peoples. As Trade Secretary making CANZUK a reality would be a top priority.

Biggest weirdo on X.
Mid 50's with a shit perm haircut, sat in his room clapping like a seal to videos of Nick Fuentes.
Kind of bloke you would catch playing video games with 5 year olds online.
Total 🔔end.

Imagine rocking up with that haircut and expecting people to take you seriously. The absolute state of it.

@XaviercMiller The NBA is more popular than ever lol? Its a truly global game with far wider appeal than baseball, NFL or Hockey. Which are all shite.
English
I said 2 years ago the NBA will be irrelevant in America within 15 years. People laughed. But this is how it starts.
First ratings decline, then fan interest declines, then local media revenue declines.
You don’t lose cultural dominance overnight, you slowly become less relevant until it finally shows up in the business side all at once.
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The NBA has informed teams that the league is projecting a $165 million salary cap for 2026-27 -- $1M lower than previous outlooks due to a reduction in local media revenue, sources tell ESPN. Minimum salary $149M, tax level $201M, first apron $209M, second apron $222M also $1M lower each.
English
@resfoundation You clowns seriously think that our economy would have matched the growth of the US during the AI revolution? But didn't because of Brexit lol? You are morons and should not be taken seriously.
English
Brexit has likely done more economic damage than feared.
Recent evidence suggests the economic cost of Brexit may be approaching twice the 4% impact assumed by the OBR.
The Chancellor has signalled a shift in approach to EU trade, but the effect will depend on how far the govt goes on alignement.
