Keir Starmer has a new "Adviser on Women and Girls". She's already offered a seat in the House of Lords to a Labour councillor who tried to block a grooming gang inquiry in Oldham. How can victims, and the public, have any confidence in a government that behaves like this?

HS2 will now cost up to £102.7 BILLION, taking 26 years to build. In China it would cost £4.25 BILLION and take around ONE year to build. Gross incompetence and corruption?

This is a lie. Gas in Britain currently costs 124.46p per therm. In the USA it currently costs 25p per therm. Electricity prices are not "set by global gas rates" because THERE ARE NO GLOBAL GAS RATES. Labour are just lying to you because they think you're too stupid to check it yourself.
Darren Jones MP@darrenpjones

Inflation is down today, in part thanks to action we've taken on energy bills. But the price of electricity is still set by global gas rates, despite half of our electricity coming from renewables. So we're taking steps to fix that too. Let me explain 👇

Since Labour came to power in July 2024, the energy price cap has increased multiple times. And it’s now being reported that energy bills will surge by £209 in July. Keir Starmer promised this wouldn’t happen. He promised a price freeze on energy bills. Another lie.

"Billionaire Trump donor in line to make millions from Thames Water bid." Meet who is now the de facto owner of Thames Water. It's a tragedy in 3 acts and it does not end well. 👇👇👇 theguardian.com/business/2026/…

Overnight the Government has sneaked out an announcement that they have lifted sanctions on Russian diesel and aviation fuel if processed in a third country. They’re also now permitting Liquified National Gas to come to the UK direct from Russia. Incredible that for all their rhetoric about the war in Ukraine Labour is now allowing Russia to benefit from oil revenue, undoing sanctions that go all the way back to the invasion of Crimea in 2014. I never had them pegged as Putin appeasers. This Government is a disgrace.

Literally just funding Russia at this point, all while we fund Ukraine. They’ll do anything to avoid drilling in the North Sea, even fund an enemies war. Total disaster.

You might have heard of Maggie Oliver. She's a former Greater Manchester detective who, in 2012, was ordered to abandon her investigation into the systematic rape of children in Rochdale, and decided she would rather resign her warrant card rather than do so. Maggie, as that would imply, is one of the good ones. I constantly ask how our police can consider themselves worthy of the badge if they are not willing to return the badge rather than commit injustice in its name. Maggie did just that; she was asked to cover for criminals, so she told the shirts to stuff themselves and handed back her commission. She won a small but consequential victory in the High Court on Friday. Mr Justice Kimblin granted her foundation a full judicial review of whether the British state has actually done anything about the recommendations it accepted, in 2022, at the end of a seven-year inquiry into the institutional cover-up of decades of child sexual abuse. Maggie Oliver is one woman. She has no political party behind her and no standing in Whitehall. She has no peerage, no chambers, no billionaire foundation footing her bills. She was ordered, by senior officers, to drop her investigation into a network of men who were raping children in industrial quantities in her city, because of the demographics to which those men belong made the whole thing a bit awkward. Fourteen years on, she has done what nobody else in this country has been able to. She has hauled the British state into open court to answer for the choice it made, over four years and under two governments, to hold a seven-year, £200 million inquiry into the institutional cover-up of child abuse and implement, deliberately, none of that inquiry's recommendations. The Home Office accepted those recommendations in 2022. So did the Department for Education, the police inspectorates and the Crown Prosecution Service. And then nothing happened. The recommendations sat. The departments restructured. Ministers rotated. The girls and women who had given evidence aged. More such operations continued around the country, while the men who had run the previous set of them either walked free, left the country, or drew their own pensions. The state, in the manner of every institution Tony Blair ever built, had decided that the writing of the report was the action, and the doing of the report could be handed off to history. That is what Maggie Oliver has now forced into court. And the political class knows what that means. The Home Secretary has not commented. The Prime Minister has not commented. The candidates jockeying through the post-Starmer Labour succession have, at the time of writing, failed even to speak her name, as though they know that, if they do, lightning will flash in the sky and they'll be turned into a pillar of Tesco's-own-brand dishwasher salt. They are silent because they recognise, accurately, that the answers a judicial review will produce - to the question of why their inquiry's findings were treated as ornamental - will, should, must end the careers of every official who was supposed to act on them and did not. That councillors and councils, mayors, indeed entire political parties, will be caught under ultraviolet light and shown for their guilt. It's time a government did what the British state has spent twenty years declining to do. Take on institutional failure. Name the institutions that failed, in public, on the record. Name the officers and officials who covered it up, and the officers and officials who pressed for the cover-up too. Prosecute them under the standards that any other employee of a public organisation defrauding the public would expect to face. The recommendations the inquiry produced must be implemented in full, alongside whatever further measures a second look at the evidence then demands. There will not be another inquiry into the inquiries. There will be the verdicts. Maggie Oliver is one of the bravest people in Britain. She has earned, by her own resignation and by fourteen years and a foundation and a court case carried on her back, the right to expect from a future British government the simple thing that ought to have happened in 2014, in 2016, in 2018, in 2022 and in every other year of this national disgrace. She has not yet been given it; we have not yet been given it. But it will be given, and soon.

Meet Dr Keith Wolverton, a genial British GP working in urgent care. During a consultation at a walk-in centre in Staffordshire, he asked a Muslim woman to remove her niqab because he had difficulty hearing her explain her young daughter’s symptoms. He cited issues with her English and the need to see her mouth movements for clear communication and proper diagnosis. She initially refused on religious grounds but eventually complied. After her daughter received treatment and recovered, the thankless woman filed a complained that she felt “victimised and racially discriminated against.” CONSEQUENCES: A Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service hearing found the doctor guilty of misconduct. He was initially suspended for 9 months. In 2026, Dr Wolverton was struck off the medical register (effectively sacked/banned from practising). All because he was concerned about the health of a child.

"Thames Water investors say temporary nationalisation would slow its recovery." Thames Water still trying to bully tax payers and bill payers I see. Govt should hang up and tell them to clear off, there is no "market solution" to this mess. theguardian.com/business/2026/…

Blame immigration. Blame those on benefits. But never blame those that have screwed the country to the tune of £Mns. Lord Bamford. Michelle Mone and Doug Barrowman. All guilty of taking the piss. When are these flagrant con artists going to be held accountable. #Taxes #Benefits

Wait, WHAT?! Am I getting this right? Britain-Keir Starmer is pushing ahead with giving away the Chagos Islands—DOUBLING the payout to Mauritius to £18 BILLION and letting them veto our lease extension. Utterly INSANE and completely unnecessary.
