Good news!

Labour has prioritised higher welfare spending over defence of the realm and our armed forces are paying the price. telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/01/0…

Labour are postponing FOUR key mayoral elections until 2028. Keir Starmer is running scared. Let the people vote.

Peregrines on Colchester Town Hall, with a mythological companion - then chasing feral pigeons.

Cancelling elections is like asking for 45 more minutes after the final whistle. It’s cheating, plain and simple. Along with Digital ID and moves to end Trial by Jury, this government is taking Britain down a dangerous path. I want nothing to do with it. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7472…

#DigitalID not sure the government have a mandate for it...

I won’t. Repost if you agree.

A castle on your doorstep? Right here at Essex! Join us for a wander through Colchester Castle, built on the site of a Roman Temple and a place that has witnessed over 2,000 years of history, right in the heart of Britain’s oldest recorded town.

Our countryside has been shaped over generations - by farming families, small communities, and local traditions. It’s not just beautiful; it’s lived-in, loved, and hard-won. We must stand up and fight to protect it. 📽️ Video: youtu.be/OYDpk0VtFzo?si… #EastAnglia #NoToPylons

Our landscape matters and with the looming threat of the Family Farm Tax, Ed Miliband, and his so-called "green" friends - we have a real battle on our hands (Video): youtu.be/ilwh5efAOCk?si…

P𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 @NickyAACampbell 𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬. Today’s hot topic? The rising scourge of inflatable dolphin litter. Yes, really. Like the annual reminder to freshers to use condoms - some things you think go without saying... and yet, here we are.
