The UK borrowed another £24.3 billion in April, above the £20.9 billion forecast by the Office for Budget Responsibility.  The ONS said the debt interest bill rose to £10.3 billion last month – the highest on record for April, which marks the start of the new financial year. The government is paying more than £100 billion a year to service its debts. Yet a cacophony of Labour and Green pols think we should borrow even more.

@Tyler7Smith @olibroom It’s his injury record that’s the real concern. Not worth high wages imo.

@olibroom Bishop i’m ok with. Output wasnt great but typically played the deepest of the 3 with read further ahead, which was reflected in his goals!

Very little surprise for me here. Macey will split opinion Given a top 3 earner, I think you can get someone to a similar standard, for around half the price. With wages being used elsewhere Payne, Anderson & Bishop is great news💪 Make a few ‘in discussions’ perm! #colu x.com/colu_official/…

@fashion_nfl Got to give it to the Raiders. TBF, the logo is all they’ve got going for them.

Approaching the halfway point. We've got ourselves a doozy for all the marbles.

@PaulChr30748044 @BiffTheBastard @I_amMukhtar

@BiffTheBastard @I_amMukhtar And how would Mr Habib know that considering he is not in Parliament nor is he a meme bear of the Conservative Party

Ben Habib is singing like a canary. He’s claiming that Christopher Harborne gave £1M each to Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage to help Boris get elected & persuade Nigel to stand down in 2019. He’s also claiming that he gave £14M to the Brexit Party & tried to break electoral law.

@riversorare @THunter_141 @Heccles94 Where is the bridge?

@THunter_141 @Heccles94 And I have a bridge to sell you…simply no way they will raise enoigh via wealth taxes.

Highlights of the Zack Polanski tax case: - Dan Neidle admits boat tax is complicated and that not a single resident in the Marina got it right - Upon being made aware Zack apologised and paid his tax Can we move onto Farage now?

@Parody_PM @DarylSting Yeah, and they were definitely the ones I would have kept.

Yeah – no more Tories! Other than Danny Kruger, Suella Braverman, Lee Anderson, Robert Jenrick, Nadine Dories, Sarah Pochin, Andrea Jenkyns, Jonathan Gullis, Jake Berry, Andrew Rosindell, Peter Bone…

One from the archives. Lab MP @lukejcr last year defending welfare changes that would have meant people who can't use the toilet on their own & who can't dress themselves wouldn't qualify for PIP Careful if you retweet it. When I posted it he blocked me.

@ColU_Official @CTFCofficial It must be the first time he hasn’t scored against us.

A minute applause for Neil Grayson 🔴⚫️ @CTFCofficial #ColU | #WeAreUnited

@PeterMcCormack It’s capitalism that’s running down your cafe. Potential customers can’t afford to patronise you as they don’t earn enough.

A minimum wage of £15 would end my coffee shop, it would have to close, as would many other businesses. I’ll explain for the economically illiterate. Staff costs are currently half our costs, a £15 minimum wage is actually more than £15 an hour for the company, because you have to add: - 12.07% holiday - Sick pay - Maternity pay if and when required - National insurance - Pension contributions These costs would mean the shop loses money because remember, energy costs are up, rates are up, regulations are up. Now you can pass these costs onto the consumer - that would mean charging a lot more for coffee, people won’t pay it. The likes of Starbucks and Costa can, because they have economies of scale. The independent doesn’t. Now the little socialist will say well this is your fault, if you can’t run a business that can afford to pay its staff properly, but the little socialist has never run a business and does not understand the dynamics. Now I could pay some staff off and fill those hours myself or reduce us to one staff member during certain periods - but this proves the point that a minimum wage costs jobs. There was a time when these jobs were done by kids, perhaps on the weekend, paid a lower wage, no holiday and no silly employment rights. Perhaps they were even paid cash. The dynamic worked and small businesses like this could operate. It was also a great first job. Sadly now it isn’t worth employing entitlement youngsters at this level of pay. So alas, I don’t need the stress, the business would close, a number of jobs would be lost. Economics is about understanding these dynamics, no vibes. The cost of living is not solved through passing on inflation to the business, it is solved by ending high inflation and creating prosperity. This is what socialists don’t understand, they can’t create prosperity, they can only destroy it.

🚨 BREAKING: Zarah Sultana uses parliamentary privilege to bypass court reporting restrictions and expose details of the Filton 24 re-trial. UK media has been banned from reporting key information. Zarah Sultana: “If convicted, they and 18 others will be sentenced as terrorists, but the jury will not be told that.” An MP going into Parliament to reveal what the press legally can’t report is rare - and explosive. This raises serious questions about transparency, justice, and what juries are - and aren’t - being told.

@NathanRef96 Cowling doesn’t own the stadium. Events are a joint venture between the club and the council.

@base13jokes So basically Terry wouldn’t own stadium or training ground 🤣

Thought cowling wanted alot more than 14 million for the club ?? So surly he’s gonna reject it no ? #Colu

@Beerdri01118796 @nick_affleck @Eyeswideopen69 So far. The best is yet to come.

@base13jokes @nick_affleck @Eyeswideopen69 There are three of them?

Guess who was the Cabinet Minister tasked with solving the welfare bill, and who designed the hopelessly inadequate Universal Credit system… Ian Smith. Note the name-spelling before he changed his name to seem more posh. A fraud — professionally and politically.

@nick_affleck @Eyeswideopen69 @Beerdri01118796 Gordon.

@Eyeswideopen69 @Beerdri01118796 George isn’t he?

@Handre Cuba’s average wage is still $30 as it has no inflation.

Socialism dies the moment you understand basic economics. Every socialist experiment—from the Soviet Union's 66 million deaths to Venezuela's 2,000% inflation—fails because central planners cannot calculate prices without markets. Ludwig von Mises proved this in 1920: without private property and voluntary exchange, rational economic calculation becomes impossible. You cannot allocate scarce resources efficiently when bureaucrats replace market signals. Cuba's average monthly wage remains $30 while North Koreans starve. Meanwhile, Hong Kong transformed from fishing village to financial powerhouse through free markets. Property rights create prosperity. Central planning creates poverty. The choice stays yours.

@BobbyHillzr7r @Two_Stinky @GogOnMuhGog @khrachvik And Musk?

@Two_Stinky @GogOnMuhGog @khrachvik Trudeau made it impossible to jail Violent offenders so our crime has spiralled out of control. Trudeau opened the borders and it’s made it difficult to get healthcare. He ran insane deficits and fucked our currency. Etc etc

Spoken like someone who’s never actually had a job. The retarded children of slave owners are not “highly competent.” Elon musk is not “highly competent.” He is a leech consistently taking credit for the competence of better men. - had a rich daddy, who owned emerald mines and basically used slave labor - leeched off the brilliant man who had the idea for and created PayPal - leeched off the brilliant minds that created Tesla vehicles - leeches off the brilliant minds at SpaceX - leeches off of over 300 million Americans, whose tax dollars he receives He portrays himself as Tony stark but he’s a soft, silver spoon sucking vampire that would be homeless in the gutter without daddy’s money Capitalism always rewarded the biggest parasites, but at least back in the day there were exceptions. Now, there are none. It’s us vs them, and anyone peddling this nonsense at you just wants to empower the Epstein class.

@ckone1976 High A night like this Friday I’m in love Only picking 3 or I won’t have time to get to the bar and back.

#TheCure #Summer2026 #live Can you name five songs that The Cure will definitely play on their summer tour, but which you wouldn’t mind if they didn’t?

@jfazli @allrockmusic Do yourself a favour and keep it that way.

@allrockmusic The Smiths 100% This Year's Model is a good album though. I prefer the Bunnymen's first two albums. Don't know the Nick Lowe one.

Which of these 4 albums would you choose?

@TheCruncher76 @KewDogWalkies The statement was weak and dishonest.

@KewDogWalkies They have already released a statement, move on

Lets move move and concentrate on the football and the remaining 8 games and trying to secure 2nd spot, this has consumed enough air time, social media posts now imo

@Fluguy2 @secondtierpod Errr, Hitler was a mainstream politician at the time. Let’s not go back there.

@secondtierpod … and? He’s a mainstream politician not Adolf Hitler
