Putin wants us to be distracted. We won’t let that happen. Russia and Iran have been working together - sharing tactics, training, and tech. We will not take our eye off the Russian threat, and we will continue to stand with Ukraine.

@Keir_Starmer Cut the theatre. You talk about "crackdowns" and "securing borders" as though a few raids and headline arrests will change anything. But the boats keep coming, the hotels keep filling, and the demographic transformation of Britain rolls on. This isn't about criminal gangs. It's about a political class that opened the doors, keeps them open, and dresses it up as compassion while dismantling the very nation it claims to serve. Illegal migration isn't an accident. It isn't simply the work of gangs. It is the sharp edge of deliberate demographic engineering - the same pattern we see from Canada to France, from Germany to Australia. The boats keep coming because your government waves them in. They are housed because councils are ordered to take them. They are kept here because the courts, the NGOs, and the "human rights" industry you protect make deportation all but impossible. This isn't a failure of the system. It is the system, working exactly as designed. And what does that system deliver? A native population made to feel like strangers in their own land. British families priced out of housing while hotels are filled with migrants. Schools where the children of taxpayers are sidelined, while parallel societies entrench themselves with state blessing. A country where the most common boy's name is Muhammad, while white, Christian birth rates collapse. This isn't mismanagement. It's replacement. And you know it. You boast of raids and arrests. We see them for what they are: token gestures to pacify public anger while the real pipeline stays wide open. You can throw around percentages, but the boats still land, the hotels still fill, and the demographics still shift. It's theatre, not border security. And here's the truth: you are not loyal to Britain or the British. You are loyal to the coalition that sustains you - the Leftist–Islamist pact in the cities, the NGOs, the courts, the supranational machine in Brussels and Davos. That machine does not want borders. It does not want nations. It does not want a people confident in their own heritage. It wants a fragmented, divided population: easy to manage, impossible to unite. So no, you won't secure the borders. You'll keep importing the electorate you want, while gaslighting the people who built this country into thinking resistance is "racism." That is the real business being run here - and it is far viler than any gang in Calais. Until Britain recognises this for what it is - deliberate demographic sabotage - no slogan, no crackdown, no "priority" of yours will change a thing. Because the truth is simple: the government isn't failing to stop the boats. It is choosing not to. "A country where the most common boy's name is Muhammad, while white, Christian birth rates collapse. This isn't mismanagement. It's replacement."

Basra, 2005. I was there when the SAS were compromised by corrupt Iraqi police and taken to the Al Jameat station. While the politicians in Westminster panicked and debated, British commanders on the ground and the Coldstream Guards—the Queen's Guards—didn't hesitate. They sent in Warriors and tanks, breached the walls, and rescued their men. This is the kind of uncompromising British resolve and loyalty that I am fiercely proud of. We do not leave our men behind. We do not apologize. This is who we are. 🇬🇧⚔️

I’m absolutely livid. @Nigel_Farage and his @reformparty_uk MPs just walked out during my question to the PM about keeping snooker in Sheffield and getting a tram-train extension to Stocksbridge. Farage and Reform don’t care about constituencies or communities like mine.

🚨And there you have it. Lindsay Hoyle misled the house by omitting the fact that he has the power to pause proceedings and ask the prime minister to answer the question. He was quite happy to do this with Boris, but he REFUSES to do it with Keir Starmer. Absolute disgrace.
Lee Harris@LeeHarris

🚨Father of the House Sir Edward Leigh raises a point of order about Keir Starmer NEVER answering questions at PMQs. Lindsay Hoyle says there is nothing he can do. NONSENSE! He can pause proceedings and ask Keir Starmer to answer, but he *never* does. ABSOLUTELY USELESS!

This is treason from Julia, but of course, she is a Zionist who hates the democratic vote in a democracy. Julia and her Zionist friends love to bring democracy in bombing campaigns, democracy at the tip of a missile, that's Zionist Julia's type of democracy. We vote to leave you, pair of twats

This whole Morgan McSweeney Govt phone theft is turning into another massive embarrassment to Starmer, No10 security would have known and chasing the police 24x7 to find it, which suggest to me this is a smoke screen to cover-up more Mandelson mess.

EXCLUSIVE: I’ve spoken to MPs, Labour Party whistleblowers, and a former frontbencher with DIRECT knowledge of Morgan McSweeney. We are now witnessing the start of a blatant government cover-up. Is McSweeney lying about the “stolen” phone? Here’s what we know so far:🧵

Just popped in #Waitrose. In the queue, over 70s with their trolleys each with a copy of either the Daily Mail or the Telegraph. This is one reason why Reform has done well. 2 tabloids that aggressively promote the far-right. Depressing.

They Never Accepted Brexit. Now They're Reversing It In her interview with The Economist, Rachel Reeves said: "If we could go back in time I would have voted again to Remain. I wish we had voted to Remain." She is not a minister reluctantly implementing a democratic result she inherited. She is a minister who never accepted it and is now in a position to reverse it. Everything she has said this week flows from that position: the claim of economic damage, the insistence that Brexit is the exception rather than the norm, the promise of gains through closer alignment. This is not dispassionate analysis. It is a settled conviction finally given power. Starmer will use the King's Speech in May to introduce legislation bringing 76 EU directives back onto the UK statute book. The government calls this technical alignment. Lord Frost, who negotiated Britain's departure, calls it what it is: subordination. The bill will make EU laws applicable in Britain without Parliament having any meaningful say in shaping them. The scope is wide; food standards, pesticides, animal health, and the regulatory framework governing genetically modified organisms. That last area cuts straight through one of the few clear gains ministers themselves once claimed for Brexit: the freedom to set our own approach to gene editing. Bringing those rules back under EU alignment contradicts that position directly, and no one in government has explained why. Peter Kyle made the position plain. The government's red lines on the single market and customs union apply to "the moment we're in". Not permanent. Not binding. A holding position. Chris Bryant went further, calling the 2016 referendum a pack of lies and refusing to rule out a rejoin pledge. Sadiq Khan has already called for Labour to fight the next election on a commitment to full membership. Within Labour, the direction of travel is not debated. It is assumed. Downing Street rejected Khan's demand. But it's worth looking at what that rejection actually said. The Prime Minister's spokesman confirmed the red lines stand for now, while also stating that where alignment serves the national interest it will be pursued and that the prize is considerable. The denial and the programme sit side by side, delivered in the same breath. That is not a government holding a line. That is a government managing a timetable. The Cabinet Office is already reviewing automotive and chemicals for the next wave of EU law adoption. The agrifood bill is described as the first in a series of sector-wide deals. The summit planned for the tenth anniversary of the Brexit vote in June is the intended moment for the food and agriculture agreement to be concluded. Sector by sector, law by law, the architecture is being rebuilt. The only question left is pace. Labour's 2024 manifesto was explicit. No return to the single market. No return to the customs union. No freedom of movement. That promise has now been exposed for what it was: not a commitment but a lie, used to neutralise opposition long enough to win the election. Kyle has said the red lines are temporary. Bryant has said the referendum cannot be trusted. Reeves has said she wishes it had gone the other way. The intent is no longer hidden. It is stated plainly, on the record. If the government has stopped pretending, the question is simple. When does the opposition stop pretending too? "Chris Bryant went further, calling the 2016 referendum a pack of lies and refusing to rule out a rejoin pledge."

Worth noting that despite the level of hatred he receives from many media and commentators, Starmer's handling of Iran over the last month has been very good.
