Let’s get this straight. @mrdanwalker is as good a person as you will ever find. Newspapers care not a jot what damage they do with their headlines. It’s all clickbait. Dan is a top man who has been put through a very difficult time.

@FootballCliches It’s an insane take. It’s almost as if the same word can have (shakes head) MORE than ONE meaning. I hope he’s never described a shot as an Exocet. Or said “the roof has lifted off this stadium”. Think of those poor hurricane hit countries, Mark!

Football reporters should never ever, ever, ever use the word ‘disaster’ in relation to giving a goal away. We’ve just marked the Hillsborough tragedy. Check your language. Do much better.

@VeryBrexitProbs The opinions of the British men who fought in WW2 were extensively surveyed, from this we can say with certainty that they were adamantly opposed to mass inward migration. However the State chose to impose it on the country anyway. That generation was betrayed.

Very Brexit Problems

8 lines every flag-shagging plastic “patriot” has in their playbook 1.“I want my country back” - From what? You voted for the party that ran it for 14 years. 2.“Our grandads didn’t fight for this” - Your grandads would be ashamed that you can’t find Normandy on a map. They fought with Poles, Sikhs, Gurkhas, and West Indians beside them. They’d have more in common with the immigrants you hate than plastic patriots sharing memes about them. 3.“This isn’t the Britain I grew up in” - Correct. It has lower crime, longer life expectancy, and better healthcare than the 1970s you’re romanticising. You just don’t remember the power cuts and three-day weeks. 4.“Britain is broken” - The most unpatriotic sentence in the English language, repeated daily by people say they love their country. 5. “We’re full” - The Netherlands has twice the population density and somehow manages. The UK is not full. It’s just had 14 years of no housebuilding and you need someone darker than you to blame for it. 6.“We look after our own first” - You vote for parties that cut disability benefits, froze nurses’ pay, gave tax breaks to the rich and closed Sure Start centres. You don’t look after anyone. 7.“Stop the boats” - The Tories spent £700 million on Rwanda to deport four people. Zero boats were stopped. You cheered anyway. 8.“Starmer is a traitor” - The man prosecuted terrorists, paedophile rings, and war criminals as DPP. You import American culture war propaganda from people who openly despise our allies, trash your own country 24/7, and follow convicted fraudsters who lied about where they were born. The only ones treacherously trashing Britain’s reputation daily are you.

I went on an online speed awareness driving course instead of taking three points. A condition of passing was actively participating, ie answering questions. A man who could not speak English was on the course and his son, who answered all the questions, was his interpreter. Surely if you cannot speak English you cannot pass this course and should be forced to take the points?!?!
BB_MEDIA@bb_media_uk

This video shows migrants being supported with free driving theory lessons raising serious questions about fairness. Why aren’t our own people given the same support? Why are young people here, including 17-year-olds trying to get on the road, expected to pay while others receive it for free? Why isn’t this kind of support being offered to our youth? 🎥 Credit: @HJB_News__

If you chuck a goalkeeper in the deep end, you have to be *absolutely* sure he will rise (not sink) to the occasion. Kinsky being thrown to the wolves was like Steve McClaren lobbing Scott Carson into England's Euro 2008 qualifier v Croatia in 2007. Terrible management #THFC

Please correct me if I’m wrong, and I’m sure plenty will try, but British women don’t particularly care about these boring template social media posts from politicians for ‘international women’s day’. We are all fed up of this meaningless bullshit that we constantly get from MPs. It means nothing. It achieves nothing. It changes nothing. Ever. It’s my view that British women would rather politicians put their efforts into make our communities safe again, secure again, welcoming again. Where women feel comfortable walking through town without a man alongside them, or free to enjoy a night out without foreign perverts and illegal migrants leering and grabbing at them. And yes, of course, there are British creeps and abusers. We all know that. Sadly, we can’t deport them, prison will have to suffice. But we can remove the foreign ones, and so we should. In the many, many, many thousands. Or maybe they’d prefer politicians stopped indulging these mad fantasies that a man can become a woman - so blatantly degrading what it even is to be a woman. Let’s go one further. MPs could vote to entirely ban biological men from women’s sports, spaces and prisons. I would certainly cast my vote in favour. Restore Britain would scrap the gender recognition act and impose strict legal protections for single-sex spaces. Action, not words. I suspect that’s something the vast majority of British women could get behind... What about creating an economy where women and their husbands feel financially secure enough to raise a family? Possibly have more children, if they choose? A country that feels safe enough to actually build that life? A complete restructuring of the childcare system that doesn’t bankrupt mothers if they wish to work as their children grown up. That’s what I want. That’s what Restore Britain wants. The Government could even act to stop the ongoing rape of Britain - where endless vulnerable girls have been raped by gangs of foreign men. Many being trafficked overseas where they still remain. Is that not important enough? Clearly, it isn't. And it makes me sick thinking about the lack of any appetite to tackle it from this Government. Furious doesn't cover it. Everything has to change. All of it. Not minor tinkering or reform. Absolute restoration is required. British women are every bit as patriotic as us men. They might not shout as much about it, but millions and millions and millions of British women want to restore our country to a nation they are proud to call home. So, please, politicians must now spare us these empty platitudes that are entirely pointless. It’s my view that British women now want action. No more talk. Action. Far-reaching, radical, ruthless action - to protect their interests, their safety, and their families. There is a political party now dedicated to doing all of this. Restore Britain. I am so proud that millions of women are putting their faith in us.

Just looking at the remaining fixtures for Spurs, West Ham and Forest, and Spurs are in big trouble. If (and I say if) we somehow won the league before we went to West Ham. I would happily see us field a reserve side so they can pick up the three points. No Arsenal fan has forgotten how Spurs fans celebrated losing to City and doing the Poznan. Karma could well come full circle for you, and it will be glorious.

Just heard from a taxi driver how @JeremyVineOn5 cycled up to his cab at a traffic light and filmed him with his camera and then reported him to police. Taxi driver got a 6 points and a 500 pound fine. What a nasty thing to do -taxi wasn’t moving and as soon as it moved he would have stopped talking Vine should start reporting cyclists rushing through red lights if he wants to play tell tale

Hannah Spencer said in her victory speech that ordinary people are now 'working to line the pockets of billionaires'. She says they are 'sick of our hard work making other people rich' ''Working hard used to get me something. 'It got you a house, a nice life, holidays, it got you somewhere. 'But now, working hard, what does that get you? 'Because life has changed. Instead of working for a nice life, we’re working to line the pockets of billionaires. We are being bled dry. 'People in their thousands told me, on the doorstep and at the ballot box, that what we are sick of is being let down and looked down on 'That we are sick of our hard work making other people rich'

@RupertLowe10 Hi Rupert thank you for this. Was actually just saying the other day how I’ll only vote for a party that lets me use pepper spray in an era of anarcho tyranny so this is refreshing to hear. Also do you know how I apply for one of the castles? Would love to be in with a shot. Xx

An Englishman's home is his castle, so I am particularly delighted to launch Restore Britain's newest policy paper - 'Retaking the English Castle'. Legalising pepper spray, implementing comprehensive legal protection for homeowners defending themselves from intruders, repealing Scotland’s Hate Crime and Public Order Act, preserving trial by jury in all criminal cases, especially those involving self-defence, and plenty more. This is a detailed set of policies restoring the right for proper self-defence to decent British men and women. We live in an increasingly unsafe country, through no fault of our own - both domestic and foreign criminals are threatening the lives of law-abiding British citizens. Our plans would allow them to defend themselves, without fear of the legal consequences. If you agree with what we are proposing? Join Restore Britain, support Restore Britain, vote Restore Britain. assets.nationbuilder.com/restorebritain…

I see TV chef Nadiya Hussain is bellyaching to the Guardian about racism in the TV world, claiming she was paid less than her white equivalents and that sponsors pulled out when she did a cookbook exclusively about Muslim dishes. The BBC have pulled the plug on her show as her ratings were poor, but I’d like to make a suggestion which will make her more money and not have to rely on us pesky whites. Start her own show on YouTube aimed at the Muslim world. There’s 4million in the UK alone. It’s an unserved audience. She will make good money - better in the long run than network TV. My advice to Nadiya; Stop complaining and get working.
