Kwasi Kwarteng says the welfare bill is “unsustainable”. This from the man whose mini-budget sent markets into panic and mortgage bills through the roof. Kevin Maguire points out that welfare spending is forecast at 10.6% of GDP, lower as a proportion than in much of Europe. And over half of it goes on pensioners. But here is the part politicians rarely mention: millions of Universal Credit claimants are already in work. Public finances are not simply supporting people without jobs. We are topping up low wages while companies such as Tesco and Sainsbury’s report billion-pound profits. So spare us the lectures about Britain’s “welfare dependency”. The scandal is an economy where working people cannot afford to live on their wages, while profitable corporations expect the public purse to bridge the gap. #welfare

Some notes on my work ethic: -I last voted in Parliament on 18 March, so I haven’t done my job for ten weeks. -I’ve never held any face-to-face constituency surgeries, despite apparently having £5 million to spend on security. -I refuse to do interviews or face press scrutiny of any sort. -when I was in the European Parliament I had the 4th worst attendance record out of 748 MEPs. -although I did manage to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation. -I was on the Fisheries Committee but I only turned up to ONE out of 42 meetings. -but I will of course be taking my £73,000 EU pension. Vote Reform, get lazy, grifting, self-serving sacks of shit.

Jeremy Vine using his 10 year old daughter to dodge tax. I'm pretty certain he doesn't want people to know about this. So be good! #Jeremyvine

🚩🚩🚩 Nigel Farage admits it: he does not want the NHS funded through general taxation. That means insurance. Bills. Credit cards at the hospital door. This is American 🇺🇸 healthcare by the back door and it’s why Trump, private insurers and US pharma love him. Farage isn’t anti-establishment, he’s here to finish off the NHS. Voters deserve honesty about what Farage’s Britain 🇬🇧 really looks like.

If the £5m, £1m & multiple house purchases were all legal and above board then Nigel Farage would be on every single channel, with all the necessary evidence, so that he could scream and shout about witch-hunts, the fact that he’s not, and is essentially hiding, says everything.

Look, it's perfectly simple. I wasn't going to become an MP, then I was given £5 million and I coincidentally decided to run for Parliament. I then bought a house for £1.4m cash after saying I was "skint" and my girlfriend bought a house for £885,000 with money she didn't have and which I originally said I had bought. The gift was totally unconditional, as well as being for security and then it was a reward for Brexit. Nobody should have known about it, but the Russians hacked my phone, according to 'counter-espionage experts' who don't exist. See?

Women of the UK If you’re thinking of voting Reform (or have in the past) take a minute to read the below Don’t throw away the rights that you take for granted - these matter

A rather warm early run 🥵

@PatrickMcSwain @SpotGlobals Israel is a state that commits genocide in open view..shame on all of us that it is still ongoing!!

Israel has not sworn to destroy the United States of America. Israel did not attack any of our embassies or take over one, or kidnap embassy staff. Israel has never used a WMD, Iran used poison gas. Israel has not shipped weapons to terrorists for free after training them. The list is very long. Iran continues to be an enemy to all nations of the middle east, and global threat as well.

Reporter 🇺🇸 : Is the war really about Iran’s nuclear program? CHINA 🇨🇳 : “No it's all about oil.” Reporter: Why so? CHINA: “A warmongering Israel has nuclear weapons, but Iran — the oldest civilization — can’t have them. That’s America’s biggest double standard.” A slap in the face of global hypocrisy: Israel possesses a nuclear arsenal without accountability or oversight, while Iran is forbidden even from dreaming of defending itself. This is the ugly face of Western policy.

Cuts or taxing the super rich who have avoided proper taxation for the past 40 years!

Meanwhile Farage gets 5 million for just being a nice bloke !!

Breaking: Huge protests erupted in Bilbao, northern Spain, against the Basque police assault on Sumud Flotilla supporters who returned yesterday through Bilbao Airport, after shocking footage of the attack spread widely online.

@RobertJenrick No thanks I would rather get a decent wage on 40 hrs and get off home thanks ..you massive bellend!!

A Reform government will scrap tax on overtime.

theguardian.com/politics/2026/… more bullshit!!

Bullshit!!

Anti-Zionism is NOT Antisemitism. Zionism is not Judaism. Israel is not the state of the Jews. Being anti-Zionist and anti-Israeli does not make you anti-Semitic.

And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇
