@BenGunnEx And that suspicious deaths are confirmed by autopsy, not by a long retired ‘expert witness’ with little to no credentials in neonatology, reading case notes and gainsaying the pathologists who carried out the autopsies.

Hang on... The Letby case was one of the most serious murder trials in UK history. A crime with no parallel. Yet it didn't occur to anyone that the Prosecutions main medical witness being a long retired doctor who didn't deal with neonates looked a bit desperate???

@JChimirie66677 @MalHay @Keir_Starmer Too much AI posting (although I agree with the sentiment). The giveaway is the (over)use of “This isn’t…it’s…”. As in: this isn’t repetitive, it’s tiresome!

@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."

Illegal migration is a business run by organised criminal gangs with no regard for human life. My number one priority is to put an end to this vile trade. Under our nationwide crackdown, raids and arrests are already up 50%. I won’t stop until we secure our borders.

Why did Scotland punch so far above its weight in the age of industrialisation and enlightenment? The usual answer is education. But I argue that this puts the cart before the horse, and that it was almost entirely down to capital: ageofinvention.xyz/p/age-of-inven…

@AttleeSarah80 Tice ‘avoided’ tax - which is perfectly legal and he would have been a fool not to. Rayner ‘evaded’ tax - which is illegal. This isn’t difficult.

The BBC's silence on Tice's tax scandal speaks volumes, they'll chase a Labour slip for weeks, but a Reform leader avoiding £600k? Rayner did it accidentally, Tice did it intentionally. Media silence. Funny how that works. #bbcbreakfast #bbcqt #r4today

@RaymondSnoddy This is idiocy on stilts. Try explaining to shareholders that you paid an easily avoidable, £600k tax bill out of political principle. The subsequent no confidence motion would attract far greater headlines.

Strange that neither the Daily Mail, Sun or the Times seems to have space today to cover the Sunday Times exclusive that Richard Tice has been using very aggressive tax protocols to avoid paying £600,000 in tax. If he had been a Labour MP ...
Dale Vince@DaleVince

.@TiceRichard makes a desperate attempt here to ‘clear himself’ - by trying to gaslight us all. Not unlike Reform at all..:) He claims, falsely, that this article and the media more generally are saying we should all pay as much tax as possible, more than we are legally required to - nobody says that. He specifically refers to income tax, but this story is about corporation tax, for his group of companies that operate ‘rare and complex arrangements’ and from a tax haven - this is a million miles away from being told he should pay more income tax than the rules say - as he desperately tries to claim. Do we want ’tax dodgers’ running Britain? theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/m…

@CheckCharlieB Yes, but if he hadn’t used legal accounting practices to avoid a £600k loss to his company, he could be judged financially incompetent & not suitable for government.

Reform spends every day telling voters the system is rigged by wealthy elites. Then their own MP avoids £600k in tax using the very structures ordinary people can’t access. That’s not rebellion that’s hypocrisy.

@DaleVince Why is it ‘unethical’? Given the damage governments do with it, as well as the olympic levels of waste & fraud in public spending, I would say that politicians should have as little of our money as possible. Tax avoidance & increasingly tax evasion are moral imperatives

Just to be clear, tax dodging is the common term for tax avoidance (legal but unethical) as opposed to tax evasion (illegal and unethical).   Avoiding tax is not a good look from someone who wants to run our country. Using rare and complex methods unavailable to normal people - takes away this lame attempt to re frame the issue as not paying more than you need to.

General Nick Carter is absolutely correct. NATO is a defensive alliance and was not created to assist an ally that enters a war of choice. Nor should NATO allow itself to morph into such a role. The matter of keeping the Straits of Hormuz, the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman open and free for navigation is another matter. Let us not conflate the two things. @realDonaldTrump

@ClarkeMicah @JMCDelingpole @exRAF_Al Nevertheless I think it’s a valid point. Trump always looks at the bottom line. This gives him an exit from the current war as well as an exit from the costs of guaranteeing European security. The future of Trident (totally reliant on the US) will be interesting…

.@exraf_al What a curious view for a patriot to take. Mr Trump has started a war of choice in the Middle East and now it has predictably backfired on him seeks to use a supposedly defensive alliance to drag others into it.
Rush@exRAF_Al

Trump is giving the Europeans rope to hang themselves with. Why should he bother staying in NATO or defending Europe, when Europe is quite happy to let US sailors be put in harms way simply to keep European oil prices down? telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…

@johnredwood T’was ever thus. I remember the first Gulf war (under the Conservatives). Every single Lynx helicopter in the AAC fleet was stripped of its engines to put 1 AAC regt in the field. It took 4 divisions - 3 in Germany, 1 in UK - to equip the 1 division in theatre.
