@ExcellMetalSpin And then, when the government eventually orders five hundred vehicles to replace five thousand retired ones, it will be presented as a huge positive that ‘finally closes the decade-long capability gap’.

@DavidColby10 That is the real concern. A capability gap is bad enough, but if it also comes with more lost industrial capacity, then Britain is weakening itself twice. Replacement programmes should protect both defence readiness and British manufacturing.

@KerryBurgess They’re only bombing carpets because that’s where the mullahs pray.

The United Kingdom, the only country in Europe to embrace and assist in the carpet bombing of the Iranian people...

@SimonForrest11 Iranian children are grateful every time another mullah gets blown up.

Orwell's Airstrip One has come to pass. Bombers at RAF Fairford (UK), off to murder Iranian children at Israel's behest. I wonder if the Iranian children are grateful for the UK's role in these 'defensive strikes'? 🤔 Cruel Britannia...

@dontforgetchaos That’s a schoolboy comparison. better to look at the almost identical scenario when the UK and France tried to take the suez canal in 1956 and America stabbed them in the back.

Can’t remember the UK invading the Falklands. Must have missed that bit.

@thelefttake No politician that was very popular with 18-24 year olds has ever succeeded.

Zack Polanski is by far the most popular candidate for Prime Minister among Britain's 18-24 year olds. Over 3x more popular than Nigel Farage. 7x more popular than Rupert Lowe.

@scar2wavy ‘Your honour, I was just bone smashing’ 😂

CLAV shows ZERO signs of empathy and plans to SUE the ENTIRE FAMILY of the girl who slapped him 💀 “I am a vindictive son of a bitch” “I’m literally one of the worst people to do that kind of shit to because even if it costs me shit I will go to the ends of the earth to absolutely destroy someone for fucking me over”

@Gracie_Blue89 ‘Events’ and a call to prayer are entirely different things. He knows this.

Keir Starmer is unbelievable 😡 Trafalgar Square is a historical British landmark, celebrating our country And this pathetic excuse of a PM is standing in parliament saying he loves watching Muslims pray there I hate him. HATE HIM 😡😡😡

@TDieppe Tim, the president of Nigeria is married to a Christian.

King Charles: "Nigeria has long shown: that people of different faiths can, do, and must live alongside one another, in peace, in harmony and in shared purpose.” Does he have no idea of the level of persecution of Christians in Nigeria? gbnews.com/royal/king-cha…

@g_gosden Celebrations and calls to prayer are two entirely different things. You know this.

@Leonard73714140 Leonard, that’s a very weak analogy (mainly because the Falkland’s were invaded by Argentina). A better one would be when Britain and France tried to take the Suez Canal in 1956 and America stabbed them in the back.

@dave43law Yes, I can remember watching men bumping their heads on rugs all over my town growing up. 😂

This is the UK we know and love and most of us were raised in.

@VishalShar46456 @elonmusk Britain’s Colonial education system was excellent. It brought literacy to half the world that couldn’t read or write. Make sure to add that context.

The Actual Facts — before the outrage machine:📌 What the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust actually proposed — not demolishing anything, not erasing Shakespeare. Adding contextual interpretation alongside existing exhibits — acknowledging that his works have been used historically in colonial education systems to establish English cultural superiority.📌 This is a legitimate academic debate. Chinua Achebe wrote about it in 1975. Gayatri Spivak wrote about it in 1988. It's been discussed in postcolonial literature departments for 50 years. The Daily Mail discovered it in 2026 and called it breaking news.📌 Shakespeare himself — born 1564, died 1616

Madness

@Antunes1 She was just trying smash max his jaw.

Clavicular CALLED THE POLICE on a stupid girl who slapped him for no reason 👀😂

@Chrisviews43 @KemiBadenoch So her ‘porkies’ are juvenile but your ‘fucks’ and ‘fuckings’ aren’t?

Listen to how you speak. The Prime Minister is telling porkies. What the fuck are you in a serious government establishment or some schoolground gossip column? Do your fucking job. To be honest, have you noticed that you and the far right are the only ones banging on about whether he spoke to Mandelson or not, while you try to promote Trump, who appeared in the Epstein files more than anyone? You really look like a fool when you try to make a story out of nothing. The man apologised; he didn’t double down and try to defend him like we had with the Tories for how many years. Even a man in the Tories said he drove his car to check his eyesight, and you came out to defend him with your colleagues. Let’s be real here: you are not doing yourself any justice with these schoolyard bully tactics that now just make you look stupid. We know you are trying to shy away from the disastrous choice of following a paedophile into war, and yet look at the story you want us to run with. When someone on your front bench is being racist, a person of colour – who should really be the last to tolerate racism in any form – is sitting there trying to justify it. Do us a favour: look in the mirror and do some real soul-searching, because there is something seriously wrong with you, and it looks to me like you haven’t yet left kindergarten school of politics.

The Prime Minister is telling porkies🐷 The reason Keir Starmer didn’t answer the question is because it would have proved he didn’t tell the truth.

@BasilTheGreat A gay man supporting a homophobic, sexist group of men for votes. What a whore.

🚨LABOUR MP SAYS YOU SHOULD BE SACKED FOR CALLING MASS MUSLIM STREET PRAYER AN ACT OF DOMINANCE Nick Timothy told the truth Mass street prayers are an act of dominance Labour want to silence any criticism of Islam

@cabinetofficeuk If only it were actually earned by public service. Ironically, the hereditary peers were the most educated, most civically minded and least corrupted cohort in the HOL. Now they’re gone

This is the biggest reform to our Parliament in a generation. 🇬🇧 This morning, the 700-year-old system of hereditary membership in the House of Lords was abolished. Membership is now earned through public service and merit, not granted by an inheritance. ✅

@vitt2tsnoc It seems we have a closed shop of about a dozen comics on tv, none of whom are particularly funny.

Ahead of the return of Last One Laughing, here’s one of the funniest things to ever happen on television

@wave_hoppa @ModernNavy @DefenceHQ @RFAHeadquarters @RoyalNavy That’s even worse.

@DavidColby10 @ModernNavy @DefenceHQ @RFAHeadquarters @RoyalNavy Incorrect . Lyme wasn’t alongside in gib due to lack of personnel . Lyme was in gib to save Costs on operating . Cardigan and tiderace however were.

Latest figures show there are 1,733 personnel in the Royal Fleet Auxiliary. This is a significant reduction from earlier this century. There were approximately 2,300 personnel in 2010 @DefenceHQ @RFAHeadquarters @RoyalNavy @ModernNavy whatdotheyknow.com/request/royal_…
