The Doom Loop

@GBNEWS 20% of the 1.5 million target. Annualised, it’s running well below the ~300k/year pace needed. Some ramp up needed and lots of community green spaces taken for developers

'Last year we built more social homes than have been built in this country in 35 years, when records began.' Housing Secretary Steve Reed MP says he is proud of Labour's efforts to build new homes.

@ToryWipeout @EssexPoliceUK @metpoliceuk In other news, labour activist spends more time focused on Reform as it helps to get him more clicks and attention. Likes to use the C bomb and tells us housing illegal immigrants in his town is a direct threat to him. You couldn’t even make it up.

This man is threatening me depending on how my constituency votes @EssexPoliceUK @metpoliceuk

It’s not what comes natural, what nonsense. They have been taken their on a leads, the hare has probably been staked out of its burrow to give them something to chase and they have a drone set up on “follow”. They will be going home to their tinned dog food and treats - nothing natural about it. Let’s say it as it is, it’s a tiny Hare fighting for survival against 2 trained dogs, 4 to 5 humans and a drone.

@Rainmaker1973 They should kill the dogs and their owners because they lost.

@JoePorterUK @Conservatives Just remember people of Newchapel and Mow Cop, these are the people that produced “the plan” and voted for, 100s of new homes on our green spaces. It’s a Fact.

Blessed with the sunshine while out campaigning for Newcastle-under-Lyme @Conservatives in Newchapel & Mow Cop this afternoon. An amazing team effort! 💙☀️😎 #VoteConservative #ToryCanvass #TeamTory

@UB1UB2 Meanwhile, 1000s of taxpayers cannot get a doctors appointment due to lack of availability. I am sure there are those who genuinely need asylum, and we have to help.

A British-Asian NHS doctor used a chance meeting with Nigel Farage to speak up for the asylum seekers he treats - telling him: “I have to be compassionate.” Dr Priyesh Patel, who works in the NHS and has volunteered with asylum seekers in the UK and abroad - including saving lives at sea - shared with the Reform UK leader what frontline medical workers actually see: “I work with these people. I’ve been in the ocean and saved people’s lives. I’ve seen people cry their eyes out to me, people that have been tortured. I don’t think it’s fair to throw them under the bus.” Dr Patel told Farage that women and men he treats have shared experiences of r**e, attack, and torture - and that as doctors are required to show empathy, politicians should too. Farage responded: “We have to look after them as much as possible. It doesn’t matter if they’re British or not. We’ve been generous but we have to look after the country.” Doctors working with asylum seekers - through the NHS and charities like Doctors Without Borders - see the human reality behind political debate every day. 📍 London 🎥 @doctor.priyesh Got something to share?

@triffic_stuff_ He’s the manager? Can someone check his ID. 21?

WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK IS GOING ON IN BRITAIN?! 😡 A Wetherspoons manager in Braintree has just been caught on camera openly refusing to serve customers who support Reform UK. “I’m deciding that”, he smugly tells punters. Refusing service over politics?! In a bloody pub?! Reform UK is currently the biggest party in the country, leading the polls at 25-28%, favourites to win the next election. These aren’t some fringe weirdos, they’re ordinary, hard-working Brits. The exact salt-of-the-earth customers who pack out Wetherspoons every week, keep the pints flowing and the lights on. Without them, half these pubs would be broke. And some snotty little bar manager thinks he can play political gatekeeper? F*ck off! That’s not how Britain works. You don’t get to ban paying customers because of who they vote for. If you can’t handle serving people with different views, don’t work with the public. Simple as. Tim Martin, sort this out and fire him immediately. This is a disgrace.

@STREETFIGHTSTVS @grok was there any arrests after this video?

Shirtless dude wasn’t winning that one, so his buddy steps in with one clean sweep 👊🥊

@DannyBeales @SuperGrok can you provide the truth as to why waiting lists in the NHS have come down. Is it a result of a review of who is on those lists or a wonder policy that Labour introduced?

Pleased to see that under Labour, the number of patients waiting for treatment is down. After years of record waiting lists under the Tories, this is real progress and I look forward to seeing it continue.

@DannyBeales Not true,

@CorkGarden @VideosIrish It’s a great bar, no doubt

@VideosIrish Mulligans bar in Manchester about to have issues for the next coming months with the travelling community. Would be safe to say that an agreement will be made within 6 months or the bar will be declaring bankruptcy due to unsafe environment.

4 traveller lads went to mulligans bar in Manchester last week. Door men asked them if they were travellers, and they said yea, and they said they are not allowed to let travellers in. Today, travellers held a protest outside the pub

@PeterPaulGuy @SuperGrok did this perpetrator get caught and what was the consequences?

🇮🇪 Ireland - 20th April 2025 Foreign national Abdelilah Habbouly (36), has been arrested for elbowing a woman into the face, knocking her unconscious & breaking her orbital bone in Cork city on November 25th, 2025 ⚠️ He lives in Meadow Park, The Meadows, Hollyhill, Cork.

@DANNYUNFILTERED @metpoliceuk @MetCC Let the police do there job. Clearly they had seen something to specifically focus on one person.

So @metpoliceuk @MetCC …… is this the normal procedure? First went to the legs, then chest area of a female? No detain for female, straight in and feeling?

@BBCPolitics @BBCNews It is a huge stretch of anyone’s imagination to believe he didn’t know. And then get to this point, after all the attention. What else doesn’t he know and what else aren’t they telling him.

"It beggars belief that throughout the whole timeline of events, officials in the Foreign Office saw fit to withhold this information from the most senior ministers in our system in government," PM Keir Starmer says Follow live: bbc.in/4tSZdlO

@7why__ydm @SuperGrok what happened to the idiot who punched a child in this clip?

The father saw what happened and refused to let it slide. Good job dad!

@UKLabour Unbelievable- 2 Tier promised the world to get elected, just delivered U turns. The truth is, it’s fact you cannot trust Labour to run a bath. 14 years to prepare and this is the best they’ve got. All they do is focus on bad mouthing Reform and nothing about what they can do.

Don’t risk Reform running your council from May. You can’t trust a word they say.

@DartsWithMatt @SkySportsDarts He not bothered, most were there to see him play and they didn’t.

@SkySportsDarts “Not bothered” Plays shit and loses 6-4 with an average of 83. Definitely bothered

How Luke Littler reacts to being booed in Brighton! 🤷‍♂️

@david_hollas @Chequebookjerry The year on year is misleading, firstly we haven’t completed 2026 yet. Felt I needed to point that out to David. The 2025 numbers were shockingly high. So comparing with one of the worst years in the last decade is hardly a time to sit back and say we cracked it.

@Chequebookjerry good data, thanks — the year-on-year comparison makes the point even more clearly.

Lee Anderson posted "Enough is Enough" on Channel crossings this morning. Here is the actual GOV.UK data, updated yesterday. 30 March 2026: 0 arrivals. 0 boats. 31 March 2026: 0 arrivals. 0 boats. 1 April 2026: 325 arrivals. 5 boats. 2 April 2026: 0 arrivals. 0 boats. 3 April 2026: 0 arrivals. 0 boats. 4 April 2026: 0 arrivals. 0 boats. 5 April 2026: 0 arrivals. 0 boats. Source: GOV.UK — Small boat activity in the English Channel, updated 6 April 2026. For context, here is the annual picture from the House of Commons Library: 2022: 45,800 arrivals — the peak, under the Conservatives. 2023: 29,400 arrivals — under the Conservatives. 2024: 36,800 arrivals — under the Conservatives. 2025: 41,500 arrivals — first full year under Labour. 2026: Near zero in late March and early April. The Iran war has disrupted smuggling networks across the region. Crossings have effectively stopped. The "invasion" narrative Reform is running this morning is based on data that no longer reflects reality. "Enough is Enough" — agreed. Enough of politicians screaming about a crisis using figures that are days out of date. The receipts are on GOV.UK. They always are.

@grok so in summary David’s optimism is misplaced and what we are seeing is nothing out of the normal trends year on year, he is picking a “snapshot” to try and suggest everything is better and we no longer need to worry. Truth is it’s more down to weather and as the summer arrives we should expect normal levels to resume?

Yes, the official gov.uk "Small boat arrivals: last 7 days" data (updated 7 April 2026) matches David's figures exactly: 0 arrivals on 30-31 March and 2-6 April; 325 on 1 April. Latest available covers up to 6 April—no update yet for 7 April, but zero on the prior days. Jan 1 to 6 April 2026 total: 4,766 arrivals (Home Office data as of 2 April, unchanged since). Comparison (Jan to late April period): - 2025: over 10,000 - 2024: ~7,167 - 2023: ~5,745 2026 is running notably lower than the prior three years at this stage.

@grok @david_hollas @grok any particular reasons 2026 is lower, like policy, weather or better security in France?
