Luke voted against a national inquiry into Pakistani rape gangs. MPs like him concern me for more than what Rob Kenyon said online last decade.

I've never noticed any of my friends lusting after their own daughters But perhaps this Islamic scholar comes from a culture where this happens

I wonder how much the Scottish press will now feel able to reveal without contempt of court threats hanging over them. Spectator ahead of the curve on this but lots could not be said then 👇

The girl who was raped by the traveller teens who avoided prison basically says what's the point in reporting rape when they just get let off? She is right, she put her through all this stress just to get told "yeah were letting them get away with raping you" What the hell is going on with our judges, these people are supposed to PUNISH criminals not let them get off. I'm sure I'm not the only one who is fed up of them giving criminals either light sentences or being let off completely with "community service"

What Ukraine is doing right now is working. I’ve been speaking to units recently and it seems the Russian southern front is in a dire situation. The main highway that supplies Kherson and Crimea has been totally cut. I’ve not seen it this bad for the Russians and it seems they literally have no way to stop this. Russian military bloggers are going nuts. Analysts have stated outright that logistics across Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts are completely disrupted. Ukrainian drones are striking rail junctions, fuel trains and supply convoys on a daily basis. Crimea is already facing fuel shortages and restrictions on basic goods. The land corridor Moscow spent years building is falling apart under sustained pressure. In Oleshky, Enerhodar and other occupied towns near the front, Ukrainian drones have been constantly destroying Russian drone teams. I’ve been shown videos of this today’s These are the same units that turned the killing of civilians into an open sport known as the human safari. They hunted people at bus stops, in markets and in farm fields with FPV drones fitted with explosives. Now they are being taken out at scale. At the same time Ukrainian long-range systems are striking the very military facilities Russian state media once showed off with pride. Oil storage sites, command posts and radar stations in occupied Crimea and the rear areas are burning. This level of sustained damage to Russian rear infrastructure has not been seen since the beginning of the full-scale invasion. Inside Russia the panic is obvious and spreading . Military bloggers are openly discussing the risk of a major Ukrainian breakthrough, possibly through the dried-out basin of the Kakhovka reservoir where the terrain has changed dramatically. They are warning that if Ukrainian forces exploit the gaps created by the logistics collapse, Russian positions could unravel quickly. Reinforcements would have to be rushed in under constant drone attack, and the routes are already compromised. If Ukraine continues this tactic, it’s going to be the worst year on record for Russia. They literally have no way to stop this.

And so, inevitably, the lavender husband throws himself under the bus as @NicolaSturgeon (me/me) avoids the whole corrupt affair being put before a court and the public. Scotland is run by charlatans - and you keep voting for them. You reap what you sow.

"We'll implement the law, but we'll behave like fucking toddlers while doing it."

Agree with David Davis. 👇 Has the justice system ever been more divorced from normal people? It’s as if anti-racism and progressive attitudes to youth crime now trump rape and murder. Everyone knows this is wrong. Apart from judges apparently and Labour politicians.

Crying 'Islamophobia' is a debating trick that seeks to prevent any criticism of Islam In Britain, we are free to criticise religions Remember the "Life of Brian"...

This guy had his bike stolen and traced it down to a house. The bike’s been there for over 12 hours, but listen to how the police acted and the attitude! They say they can’t do anything because the back gate is open and there’s no other evidence. He then argues with the man, who clearly just wants justice for his stolen bike. The British police are an absolute joke.

People of all religions can visit the Vatican. People of all religions can visit Jerusalem. Only Muslims can visit Mecca. Non-Muslims are considered too ‘dirty’ and inferior. This is apartheid!

After being a stay-at-home mum for 5 children I decided to retrain so that I could provide well for my family and have an income into later life. I now work as an employee and pay my taxes. I have a small business to supplement the family income, which is taxed so much I am beginning to wonder if it is worth all the hard work. My husband is unwell and unable to work, so it is just my income into the home. We have saved what we have been able to over the years and now Rachel Thieves wants a chunk of that as well. What was the point? Why do I bother? Why work hard so that I can pay for immigrants to be given what I can't afford, like private healthcare, private dentists, etc?

@eNeecie Every other day a new motorhome appears in my mother-in-law's drive and Neil hands me another bucket full of jewellery and cosmetics. I can only assume he's got himself a part time job I'm too busy to ask about.

The media accused Reform candidate Rob Kenyon of posting “foreign criminals are invading our country.” They accused him in the same week Afghan small boat migrants were charged with 40 child sex offences. Rob’s response: “Am I wrong?”

The economist Catherine McBride has done some arithmetic. Rejoining the Erasmus scheme (paying for student exchanges and EU propaganda) was refused by the Johnson government as too expensive, and less effective than our own Turing scheme. According to McBride’s calculations, the present Government has now signed up to pay twice as much to the EU – £810m annually from 2028 onwards. The same sum could fund free tuition for 84,900 needy UK university students.

@WorldByWolf Restore are going to do the exact opposite of 'restoring'. I was a fan, but now they are just on an ego trip.

🚨This is how things play out if Burnham wins Makerfield: He becomes PM and gets a poll bump. He immediately realises he has to either hike taxes or cut spending which will make him deeply unpopular so before he has to do anything unpopular he calls a snap election under the guise of needing a new Burnham plan mandate. He likely wins that election because Reform aren’t ready yet (Farage’s own words), Restore certainly aren’t ready, the Tories are still hated, and the Greens have plummeted recently. He uses that election win to move the country to the left, to rejoin the EU, and to indulge completely in the worst elements of the culture war to distract from the economic situation. Meanwhile Restore are blamed for all of it.

Polygamy has never been normal in Britain. And yet the Government has just committed to giving even more taxpayer money to people in polygamous marriages. If you come to this country, you should abide by our norms. You certainly shouldn't get paid extra for failing to do so.

The boy who would not bow 💪🔥

I posted this during the week but I'm doing it again because it's absolutely staggering. @AngelaRayner can claim £40,000 in direct office expenses and a further £240,000 for "staff costs" etc. She's also been gifted another quarter of a million quid from "supporters" to cover even more "office expenses". In total it comes to over £500,000 per year. Or £10,000 PER WEEK. FOR OFFICE EXPENSES. A UK pensioner is expected to survive on just £12,500 PER YEAR. That's just 9 days worth of Angela Rayners "office expenses". Are you OK with that?

The Campervan was listed in accounts as a £100,000 campaign asset. Not one SNP executive committee member asked where it was. Genuinely incredible. Their biggest depreciating asset that decade.
