Common Sense

@MatthewStadlen Nothing to do with culture or ethnicity. You live in a metropolitan shit-hole and pay handsomely for it!

Two unpleasant experiences today. 1 Big man in his 20s/30s suddenly started threatening a young man who was with a female friend on the train I was travelling on. I went to sit next to the victim to protect him and his friend and called the police. 2 Drunk man in his 50s/60s at local store on the south coast throwing his weight around while waiting for the bus. Both white English men. Presumably those obsessed with cultural and ethnic identity will tell me I should be worried about white English culture after these two threatening encounters within the space of four hours?

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos Nope. If someone is renting out their deliveroo account the immigrant is still making black market money. I'm British mate, I don't know about you. A tradie is an informal term, primarily used in Australia and New Zealand, for a tradesperson. Jog on!

You’re conflating so many things that just shows you don’t have a clue You’re now talking about illegal immigrants in holding centres or hotels, before you were talking about immigrants So no illegals don’t get benefits either they get food and lodging while their claim is processed. Those aren’t ‘benefits’. I have a ton of issues with how all that’s done and we should be much tougher etc but it’s not the topic A tradie is anyone with a trade, have you lived in mars your whole life So your original point on untaxed deliveroo earnings was wrong, illegals claiming benefits wrong, immigrants conflated with asylum seekers, you’ve never heard the term tradie, arent bright enough to work it out and don’t care at all about the £10-15bn tax lost to their cash in hand work but do care about the much smaller immigrant number Other than that you’re bang on mate lol

Boomer pensioners have taken £1.20 out of the welfare state for ever £1 they've paid in.

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos So you don't call a hotel, 3 meals a day, £50 p/w, etc, costing the taxpayer £4.2billion, benefits? Clearly you went to the Ken Dodd school of accountancy. And WTF is a "tradie"? Clearly someone speaking from an ivory tower. 😁

Undocumented migrants and those without valid visas can’t claim benefits Which is why they work illegally cash in hand Deliveroo is zero cash so all the cash is tracked. Even if 5 people use 1 account tax will need to be paid on the account as if 1 person earned it Yeah mate who ever heard of a tradie working cash in hand? Ha ha and you’re the one calling other people a clown

@TheHughAnthony Reminder. In 1960, UK average weekly earnings for adult male manual workers were roughly £14 2s 1d for about 48 hours! Working 6 days a week! £5 on benefits. No free childcare, no maternity pay We can go back to the 60's, if you like. 😂😂😂

Reminder that 1/4 of pensioners live in houses worth over a 1 million pounds. The average age for being able to buy a house in the 60s was 23 to 24 years old, with house prices on average being around £2.5k. It is now 33-34 years old with average house prices being £268k.

@dave43law It's not £36billion, those pensioners immediately pay 40% of it back in tax. Don't vote Dave for chancellor! 😂😂😂

The time has come for 'state pension' to be means tested Removal of those 3 million from the equation at the very least would free £36billion to fund others

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos 😂😂😂 All the while claiming benefits they're not entitled to, and getting back handed cash. Hardly your gotcha moment - when you're making out they're just poor, regular deliveroo drivers paying their way. As for tradesmen, you have no evidence to substantiate your claim. 🤡

@CommonSense1978 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos That’s not the same thing Deliveroo declares the earnings of the driver to HMRC, so the driver must pay the tax Maybe multiple use the account, so yes you could have 5/6 people all under the same earnings but the total tax is being paid Yours is a different point, thanks fool

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos Fool. Immigrants without work authorisation often work for Deliveroo by renting or borrowing existing, verified accounts from legal residents. This "account substitution" loophole allows them to work under someone else's identity, with thousands of accounts potentially being used

@CommonSense1978 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos Deliveroo declares driver income to HMRC so that’s not true Tons of tradies out there living on £12,570 and claiming benefits. Guess you’re just as angry about them?

@ReemAmirIbrahim @DeBarsham Prove it! You know that refers to pensioner households and not individuals, so it's a lie. You're not even British, why do you think you have a right to an opinion on this?

@DeBarsham 25% of pensioners are millionaires. Many are not living on the state pension. The state pension is a nice top-up that they spend on an extra holiday lol.

State pension: £146 billion Asylum seeker hotels: £2.1 billion

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos Those deliveroo drivers don't declare their income, don't pay tax and are claiming benefits as well.

@sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos Ah the magic money tree of the nutters, the immigrants We’d all be quadrillionaires if only we stopped the boats and kicked out deliveroo drivers That will pay for the triple lock, loads more NHS, more warships, potholes and everything else on the wish list Crackers

@BladeoftheS I think Mick Lynch is a useless cnut, in fact I know he's a cnut!

Mick Lynch "Nigel Farage is a racist." RT if Mick is right.

@PatrickChristys I'm sure I saw him gyrating on stage!

It’s happening…the Greens are going to have to choose between LGBT and the hardline Muslim vote

@ChrisNineham Oh right. It’s in your civil liberties to intimidate Jews. Get a life.

@ChrisNineham May the 16th, to coincide with The Unite The Kingdom Rally. What a surprise!

So, Ben Jamal and I have been convicted for organising a peaceful protest against genocide in a bizarre decision by one judge. This is a big attack on civil liberties. We will appeal. We call for a massive mobilisation in support of the Palestinian people for Nakba on 16 May.

@linmeitalks Nice try! According to the 2021 Census, Hull's population is 91.8% White (83.9% White British), with a growing ethnic minority population representing 16.1% (43,051) of residents, up from 10.3% in 2011.

This is Hull in England which is 91.8% white. There are other, predominantly white areas which look similar. While I do agree London, Birmingham plus other ethnic minority dominated areas have huge issue with cleanliness, fly tipping etc…. This is a generational, class issue. Asians black and whites decades ago took pride in their areas… human behaviour in general has gotten worse and is not specific to race or religion in the U.K. Ps call me a fool again or any other name and I’ll block you. Your behaviour is similar to the people who fly tip. Unmannered and uncouth.

@SaverBible @ZackPolanski Dick! Eid Al-Fitr 2026 Regulations: For Eid Al-Fitr 1447 AH (March/April 2026), authorities announced that prayers will be held only inside approved mosques across Qatar.

@ZackPolanski I find it hilarious that people are scared of Muslims 😆😆😆. Is the boogy man gonna finish his prayer and jump out from under your bed?

Not only was what he said racist - he's also a hypocrite. metro.co.uk/2026/03/31/tor…

@MarinaHyde My God! Is this the level of journalism we've been reduced to? I thought the Guardian was a serious newspaper. This would be more suitable for the now defunct Jeremy Kyle Show.

My column on the reality of the book charts (feat Matt Goodwin) theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@ReemAmirIbrahim This 25% are millionaires nonsense again! You have zero credibility when you keep spouting this factually inaccurate bullshit!

The state pension costs working-age Brits over £150 billion a year. Is it fair for young people to pay the highest tax burden in British history to fund every single pensioner? Especially when 25% are millionaires?

@PaulEmbery We're being culturally enriched - we should be celebrating!

A second night of mayhem in Clapham. These are not angry young people making a political statement. They are thugs, pure and simple. There should be mass arrests.

@ucu @DrJoGrady How pathetic! So anytime, anywhere in the world, there is a conflict in the world the UK has to throw the doors open and welcome thousands of refugees? I don't remember voting for it.

“Small boats didn’t crash the economy. Liz Truss did. Wars create refugees. Trump’s “war on Iran” will create more. The question isn’t how to stop people fleeing. It’s how to stop creating the conditions that force them to.”@DrJoGrady

@Martin_Abrams @NicaraguaVisit Ageist arsehole! Never mind "sorry", you're only sorry you let your virtue-signaling, identity politics halo slip! This pensioner says; fu#k off!!!

@NicaraguaVisit Sorry Louise, I didn't say all over 65s. We need to unite all ages, demographics and backgrounds to best Reform

Reform UK is the reanimated corpse of the Conservative Party that is predominantly appealing to over 65s. This is a party stuck in the past not a party for the future of Britain and our future generations. Vote Green in May 💚
