@ClaireCoutinho To put in context - Most of the new oil and gas exploration is in the Barnet sea off the north of Norway. The smallest part of the 70 new oil fields are in the North Sea. Just summarises the North Sea stocks are diminishing.

Norway just announced 70 new blocks of oil and gas exploration, including in the North Sea. Meanwhile, just over the border on the British side of the North Sea, Ed Miliband tells us we’ve got nothing left so he HAS to ban new licences. Same basin. Same geology. Madness.

@PolitlcsUK Who gets a personal gift of £5 million pounds from a non family member and says nothing to see here it’s unconditional, non political just a personal gift. Honestly does that sound right to you

🚨 NEW: Nigel Farage claims he had no obligation to declare the £5m gift from billionaire Christopher Harborne "Believe you me, we've looked at this from every legal angle, there is no obligation to declare something that is an unconditional, non-political, personal gift"

@DavidDavisMP I This whole argument was obsolete as you found out as Brexit secretary the EU has far more market power than the UK. Want evidence just look at the poor Brexit deal negotiated which put a boarder up in the Irish Sea. Quite a feat for the Conservative and unionist party.

It is hard to believe that Labour is even considering paying £1bn a year to the EU. Has everyone forgotten that we buy more from them than they do from us, and have done ever since we joined the Common Market? If anything, they should be paying us! (Actually they shouldn’t. Free trade should be just that, free)And our exports to them post Covid are broadly on trend for pre-Brexit levels. The restraints on growth are down to appalling tax and regulatory policies, as well as some global headwinds. thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

@IsabelOakeshott @reformparty_uk Deflection politics to escape Nigel Farage £5 million personal donation he didn’t declare

🛑 TIME for hard ball on the migrant crisis. Radical @reformparty_uk plan to locate detention centres in Green Party constituencies is upsetting all the right people. They will get what they voted for!

@Jenny_1884 @cjlocky0709 Same was the case for the Borris Johnson in the 2019 election. In fact more people voted for parties campaigning for a second referendum than those who wanted to get Brexit done. However it’s our electoral system. You didn’t seem to mind the result in 2019 🤔

@cjlocky0709 The majority did not vote him in. The minority did & he still got in. Weird don’t you think 🤔

Have I missed something as I don’t remember being asked if we want closer ties with the EU. Has anyone else not been asked? It appears that Keir Starmer has a free reign & does whatever he wants & no questions are asked. This feels more like a dictatorship.

@TiceRichard I seem to remember for the Brexit referendum those living abroad for a period of time was denied a vote. This has now been changed after the Brexit vote. It makes you think if people living abroad couldn’t vote in the referendum why should they be allowed to donate.

“I’ll fight Starmer’s donor ban” Reform’s billionaire backer says Christopher is a real patriot. Thank you Tories, lefties & Establishment are terrified. Why they’re so desperate to smear us all at Reform Now attacking our need for safety & security telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

@SandyofSuffolk @AaronLoveman You’re deflecting.

@AaronLoveman You're clutching.

For those of you Reform bashers who are still having trouble with your critical thinking skills, this may help you put things into perspective. Those MPs who didn't vote yesterday: Labour 53 Lib Dem 16 Tory 12 SF 7 Ind 3 Reform 2 Hope that helps.

@PolitlcsUK @Telegraph It must not be looking good for reform in the local elections to bring this out a week before the local election. Let’s not forget the PM also had his home attack last year and other MPs have threats too they all still do local surgeries unlike Nigel Farage.

🚨 NEW: Nigel Farage has revealed his house was petrol-bombed in early 2025 [@Telegraph]

@ClaireCoutinho Perhaps you didn’t read the report but Lufthansa has cut short haul flights due to the price of jet fuel. As the very same report says currently UK airlines and the government is not having supply issues.The price of jet fuel has soared due to the war that your party supported.

Ed Miliband did a whole speech on energy security yesterday with not one mention of jet fuel. He needs to release the National Emergency Plan for Fuel now.

@TrumpDailyPosts To be honest it’s looking like a Kier Starmer time as PM may soon be at a end. After the local elections in May I think he will be gone after a few months. The Labour Party just don’t have a replacement at the moment.

𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗱 𝗝. 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗽 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝟭𝟭:𝟬𝟰 𝗣𝗠 𝗘𝗦𝗧 𝟬𝟰.𝟮𝟬.𝟮𝟲 Prime Minister Keir Starmer of the United Kingdom acknowledged that he “exercised wrong judgement” when he chose his Ambassador to Washington. I agree, he was a really bad pick. Plenty of time to recover, however! President DJT

@JamesCleverly I believe right now Labour MPs are looking at a way for Burnham to be an MP after the local elections. Once his an MP time will be up for Starmer

If Andy Burnham were an MP at the moment Starmer would be gone as PM.

@johnredwood @Daily_Ref @Telegraph Brexit has been anti business just go and ask the multiple of business owners saying how it’s made goods they buy more expensive and complicated supply chains. If your pro business you’ll want less barriers to trade with our biggest trading partner

I have written in @telegraph how the EU re set will damage our growth. It will bring even higher energy levies and prices, big tax bills to send money to the EU, more industrial closures, more anti business regulations.

@GoodwinMJ Brexit was a failure even admitted by your party leader Farage. Whenever there is an ounce of scurinty to reform or even Brexit you lot start moaning it’s not fair it’s a smear or project fear etc. we are starting to see through it all

What you are witnessing in Britain right now is the birth of Project Fear 2.0. The state, the establishment, the legacy media class is lining up against Reform. Remember Brexit? Remember how the establishment threw absolutely everything at trying to discredit the people’s vote? Well, that is happening all over again with Reform. Anybody and everybody associated with Reform will now come under constant attack. Constant smears. Constant criticism. Constant abuse. In many ways it will be even worse than Brexit. It will be Project Fear on steroids. Why? Because Reform is Number 1 in the polls. Because Reform won the local elections last year and will likely do so again this year. Because Reform is standing in 99.9% of available seats. Because Reform just walked into Greater Manchester, beat Labour & took 29% like it was nothing. Because according to all polls & MRPs Reform is firmly on course to win the next general election. The Establishment is scared. They are panicking. They are desperate. They know the real threat to their power is Reform, not the Greens. In the latest MRP the Greens get 22 seats; Reform get 324. They can sense their power is slipping and a new regime is on the rise. So they are lashing out. That is what is happening and will intensify between today and the next general election. What does that mean for the people who want to save this country? Hold steady. Hold firm. Do NOT sit at home and sit this one out. The next general election is the big one — it really matters. They cannot bully us into submission if we stand together. Get behind the only movement that has a chance of saving Britain. By ending mass migration. Leaving the ECHR. Slashing the cost of living. Reversing the Boriswave. Stopping the boats. Slashing foreign aid. Banning Muslim Brotherhood. Defending our Christian heritage. Putting the British people and British businesses first. Vote Reform on May 7th like your country depends on it. Because it does.

@TomTugendhat @lukerobertblack Biggest element of the welfare bill is pensions that the conservatives grow exponentially via the triple lock for 14 years. If you can’t admit your part at fault you won’t have the solutions.

@AJ78292 @SandyofSuffolk @thetimes @TiceRichard Wow the reform bot farm must be working overtime if you believe this.

@clt4646 @SandyofSuffolk @thetimes @TiceRichard You must have your head firmly in the sand if you can't see what is happening here. Those that have held onto power for generations are terrified at what is about to happen and thus their attack dogs are working overtime trying to prevent the inevitable.

The smear campaign by @thetimes against @TiceRichard shows how low this once great newspaper has fallen. They're just like the old News of the World now - trash stories for the intellectually challenged. Best avoided at all costs. Richard Tice started Reform. It's his policies that initially drew us all to Reform. This dirty rag and a handful of ill informed bigoted lefty journalists won't deter us. All they'll do is lose readers. Good. I hope they go out of business.

@BBCPolitics I take aim at your headline taking a political view. we have a lot to gain. I guess there is no hiding in the BBC biases anymore.

UK seeks closer EU ties in volatile times - but at what cost? bbc.in/3QfjELg

@LBC @lukerobertblack @Jeremy_Hunt The Conservative spent their 14 years in office blaming Labour for the financial crash & debt. The new government spends 2 years holding the Conservatives to account for their record and they start moaning stop attacking us. They really dont like being held to account do they

'They spend at least half of their speeches attacking the Conservatives.' After the Commons Speaker urged Keir Starmer to focus on Kemi Badenoch's questions, @Jeremy_Hunt rebukes Labour's 'partisan nonsense' at a time of 'international crisis'.

@johnredwood @facts4eu Stop gaslighting us. Comparing us to just two EU countries is not how you compare whether a country would have grown more or not.

I set out today @facts4eu how the 4% and 8% claims of GDP loss from Brexit are both lies. UK growth has been a little better than the main EU countries since the vote.

@MarkVipond @KemiBadenoch Funny how the conservatives only put in these plans just before they knew they weren’t going to be in office much longer. Helps them deflect from the fact they spent most of the 14 years in power reducing our defence capabilities.

@KemiBadenoch Kemi's right. Prior to Starmer taking charge, the Conservatives were putting in place plans to invest further in our defences. But Labour cancelled them, withdrew investment, concentrated more on benefits than defence.

Starmer will try to blame Conservatives for the defence mess he has created on his watch. Rubbish. In January 2024, Conservatives approved upgrades to Type 45 destroyers including HMS Dragon. In July 2024, Labour paused those upgrades. We led the world in the defence of Ukraine. Conservatives never had the humiliation of a warship stuck in port for weeks, then forced to turn back with faults. That's on Starmer. That's on Labour. And that's why they can't be trusted. Instead of blaming Conservatives he should approve the upgrades now.
