Clear Blue Thinking

This is completely mad. Britain has no history of polygamy. It's been illegal to enter into a polygamous marriage in England since 1604. When people come to this country, they should abide by our norms. Allowing them not to and then giving them taxpayer money for it is mental.

But this is what Starmer wants us to get closer to.

Starmer told Cabinet not to discuss leadership at the meeting but to come speak to him privately. He then ran away after Cabinet and no one could go to speak to him. Wes Streeting spent numerous minutes trying to talk to Starmer but was turned away, according to POLITICO.

Gonna need another reset.

65% Of Starmer’s “Reset” Speech Was Recycled From Conference Address order-order.com/2026/05/11/65-…

The problem the cabinet has now is that for this to happen in any sort of orderly fashion, Starmer has to accept the stone cold political reality that he is done. But if he had any feel for politics he wouldn’t be in this mess to start with

🚨NEWS: Norway has begun RE-OPENING North Sea Oil sites to meet growing demand from the UK In case you weren't aware of just how stupid the UK Government is, they are BLOCKING permits to drill while PAYING Norway to drill oil from the North Sea instead We are led by clowns

Good luck to everyone standing in the Pakistani elections, which are taking place right across Britain today.

It's not 'racist' you silly man It's culturalist Some cultures are kinder and more humane than others For example, cultures that do not allow female genital mutilation, child marriage, stoning and beating of women and themurder of people who disagree with them...are superior to cultures that allow these barbaric behaviours

People don't realize how absurd this view actually is. A camera. On a robot. On Mars. Built by humans on a planet 140 million miles away, launched on a rocket, landed using a sky crane, and now driving across an alien desert taking pictures so detailed you can count the rocks. 100 years ago, your great-grandparents thought airplanes were a miracle. You are scrolling past Mars on your phone.

How dare you. I grew up in Telford and was sexually abused for over a decade under a Labour council. Countless little girls like me were failed by Labour politicians like you. If you want to know how Labour REALLY treats abuse survivors, here’s my story: As many other girls in Telford have also testified, I was made to feel as though I was to blame. The system criminalised the victims, rather than going after the perpetrators. I remember being asked by a detective whether I “consented” at any point to sexual activity, and told by a social worker that “my actions had led me to where I was today”. All the while, the Labour-led council tried to block an independent inquiry into CSE for years and their Council Leader (now the MP for Telford), along with 10 other powerful local men, even wrote a letter to the Home Secretary saying they felt an inquiry would unnecessary. Little girls in Telford were branded child prostitutes and p*ki shaggers… …by West Mercia Police and local Labour councillors, no less. In Rotherham, Rochdale, Banbury and elsewhere — all Labour-led areas — victims were continually swept aside by those in positions of power, as if they chose this lifestyle. The attitudes that social workers, local services, authorities had towards children was so skewed, and so deeply unprofessional. My abuse continued for years, at the hands of multiple different men throughout my childhood and teen years. Eventually, I confided in a social worker and filed a police report detailing the years of abuse that I had experienced. And my case, like 96.5 per cent of all sex crime cases in the UK, never resulted in prosecution. I was told that there was an unrealistic prospect of conviction against any of my abusers, due to the historic nature of my case. I spent years in silence because I thought I would somehow be judged or penalised for the abuse I had suffered. Because I had been conditioned to feel like I was somehow responsible for my own victimisation. The Telford scandal made headlines when it broke in 2015, then again when the Crowther Report was released in 2022. Yet, the news cycle moved on. And Labour tried their best to ignore it. You voted against a national enquiry into CSE. You gutted the local enquires model. You promoted key figures in the scandal to MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT. You called victims “far-Right bandwagon jumpers” and grooming gangs a “dog whistle.” You failed. Deliberately. On every level. These are not crimes of the past. Kids are still being exploited, groomed, raped and even murdered in Labour-led areas like mine. It isn’t enough to have empty words and hollow promises. I even went on national TV to discuss Pakistani grooming gangs in Telford and the continued risk of abuse faced by little girls in my hometown. The next day, officers banged on my door, demanding I speak to them about my interview. They ignored victims for decades, but tried to intimidate me for speaking about their failings on live TV. CSE is a national epidemic. But Labour continues to treat it like a localised issue, choosing to believe that the extent of the abuse is contained to a few bad towns and pockets of bad apples. That couldn’t be further from the truth. Politicians like you, Bridget, refuse to address that fact for fear of being forced to confront your decades-long failure to protect young girls from abuse. It’s easier to ignore victims, especially when they come from communities, social classes or demographics that are already disenfranchised in Britain. And for those who do speak out, it feels like you are screaming at a brick wall that would rather label you as the problem than take you seriously. It was Labour councils. Labour politicians. Labour police forces. Labour MPs. You all knew. You were all complicit. How DARE you pretend to care about us now. You are a disgrace, Bridget.

An LBC caller asked Badenoch how a Muslim could trust the Conservative Party after Shadow Justice Secretary Nick Timothy criticized mass Ramadan public prayer in Trafalgar Square as “an act of domination.” Badenoch did not duck.

The right to criticize ANY religion — Christianity, Islam, all of them — is a non-negotiable feature of a free society, not a privilege the majority granted to the minority. This is the Western mainstream conservative position. Badenoch — daughter of Nigerian immigrants, raised Christian, lived among Muslims her whole childhood — said it on national radio without hedging, without apologizing, and without softening it for the audience.

Keir Starmer performed sincerity today with the flawless choreography of a man who has spent years rehearsing his own innocence in front of a mirror. He wheeled out his sister, his brother, his family like prized exhibits in a museum of borrowed humanity, then spoke of “working people” with the tender concern of a chef describing the lamb he is about to carve. The central lie arrived right on cue, wrapped in the warmest possible packaging: “No matter the global uncertainty, this government is on the side of working people.” How touching. How very convenient. He claims to stand with them while imposing the highest tax burden in seventy years. He claims to protect them while presiding over the most expensive energy prices in the developed world. He claims compassion while quietly removing the Winter Fuel Payment from millions who can no longer afford to keep their own blood warm. He claims to lift children from poverty by scrapping the two-child cap, a policy that politely rewards those who breed beyond their means while punishing the responsible families who actually did the maths. He boasts of “the biggest upgrade to workers’ rights in a generation.” What he is truly offering is a future in which small businesses stop hiring, young people stop being hired, and ambition is quietly criminalised. He calls it protection. One must admire the artistry of the lie. All of it delivered from behind the soft, emotional shield of family photographs and childhood anecdotes. A man who cannot win on facts must win on feelings. It is the oldest, most cynical trick in the politician’s well-thumbed playbook. The truth, however, requires no orchestra and no family album: Keir Starmer is not on the side of working people. He is the reason they are poorer, more heavily taxed, and more insecure than they have been in decades. He won an election on carefully rehearsed empathy and has spent every day since proving he possesses none. He is not leading Britain. He is managing its decline with the serene, professional smile of a man who has already decided which parts of the carcass he intends to keep for himself. The British people are beginning to smell the difference between the perfume and the rot. They always do, eventually. Britain First. No Surrender.🦁🇬🇧

NEW: Astronaut Reid Wiseman shares a video of ‘Earthset’ that was taken with his iPhone “This is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye…” Wiseman said. This has to be the greatest iPhone video of all time.
