🚨 JUST IN: President Trump says the US will be withdrawing "A LOT" more troops from Germany than the 5,000 announced yesterday FINALLY. Bring our troops home! We don't need NATO — NATO needs US! "We're going to cut WAY down and we're cutting a lot further than 5,000" 🇺🇸

@DouglasCarswell It's strange that you'd post this when you must know perfectly well that he's actually got a long history of advocating stricter controls on immigration. Why not say what you really mean?

@ColinBrazierTV Labour did it with grammar schools. It is a Soviet policy. They are still in a Russian revolution frame of mind.

No other major European country imposes VAT on education. More than 100 independent schools have now gone under in Britain since Labour decided it would do so. Ideological vandalism.

“It is with great sadness that Malvern St James is proposing to close at the end of this academic year. Nationally, the introduction of VAT on private school fees & increased employment costs have placed considerable pressure on the independent sector.” malverngazette.co.uk/news/26045586.…

“For reasons which they could not comprehend, and in pursuance of a decision by default, on which they were never consulted, they found themselves made strangers in their own country. They found their wives unable to obtain hospital beds in childbirth, their children unable to obtain school places, their homes and neighbourhoods changed beyond recognition, their plans and prospects for the future defeated; at work they found that employers hesitated to apply to the immigrant worker the standards of discipline and competence required of the native-born worker; they began to hear, as time went by, more and more voices which told them that they were now the unwanted. On top of this, they now learn that a one-way privilege is to be established by Act of Parliament; a law which cannot, and is not intended to, operate to protect them or redress their grievances, is to be enacted to give the stranger, the disgruntled and the agent provocateur the power to pillory them for their private actions.” #OTD 1968

Not good enough. Why did you believe it? Why did you not check it out before you posted it? What do you think it says about you??

@RealJamesWoods This is just bullshit. I expect better from you. Much better. We are NOT "standing on the edge of the Islamist abyss". If you were really concerned about keeping power in the hands of the people, you would not have elected Trump.

Our friends, the Brits, went from relinquishing their right to bear arms in 1997 to standing on the edge of the Islamist abyss today. Our Second Amendment is not about the right to go duck hunting, folks. It’s about keeping power in the hands of The People.

@JohnHann04 @mazst Because a ‘message’ isn’t needed unless you want to cause division - just go to church and behave like a Christian

What the hell are King Charles and Buckingham Palace doing. Have they got zero sense of how to handle public relations and what the public mood is. It’s true that they don’t issue an Easter message every single year. But to NOT do it this year, only weeks after issuing a Ramadan message comes across as a deliberate snub and total hypocrisy. Even if Charles is unwell, get William to do it. Simply to refuse to issue a message to the Christian church and its people of which you are the head, after doing one for Islam is guaranteed to cause uproar and at the very least is just plain stupid.

Why does the BBC always think it appropriate to invite a left-leaning actor ( in this case Eddie Marsan) onto a current affairs show to spout ritual criticism of Trump & plug Labour & Starmer? I couldn’t give a rats arse for Marsan’s views on anything. Stick to acting.

Holy Week is about to begin. Growing up, these posters were a common sight in windows. England needs a return to an unapologetic, everyday, commonplace Christianity.

"Starmer says government will step in if fuel companies rip off customers." This government is anti-business to its soul. It seemingly cannot see business as anything other than predatory or at the very least, undesirable. I despair.

Trump’s little ambassadors. All day long. Standing up for the draft dodger who said our forces avoided the front line. Campaigning on grooming gangs while ignoring the rape claims against Trump. Taking top dollar to slag off the UK at every turn. If that is patriotism I’d love to know what treason looks like.
Nile Gardiner@NileGardiner

Nigel Farage, the front runner to be the next British Prime Minister, is meeting with President Trump today. Time to sink Keir Starmer’s ghastly Chagos surrender deal for good. @Nigel_Farage

Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.
