@RamboTds @CarolineLucas Do you understand what the word "profit" means, Frank? Check yourself before calling people "spastic".

Such blatant profiteering from human misery is sickening. And here at home families struggle to pay bills as energy giants rake in higher profits & destroy the climate. Time for a further windfall tax now bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@politicsranter @AllForProgress_ @LindaNe10012033 Are we gonna reconsider this given the actual facts being released? Won't hold my breathe....

Such an articulated and intelligent post, but the left will insist on calling you a racist or bigot at the pure suggestion that there’s a very good chance that this wasn’t committed by white British men. But the police don’t have the bollocks to admit it. Shame on them. They are as bad as the perpetrators. Absolute vile disgusting establishment.

On Saturday morning, a woman in her twenties was raped outside Epsom Methodist Church on Ashley Road. She had left a nightclub; she was followed by a group of men; the attack took place between two and four in the morning, in the heart of a market town in Surrey that most of the country thinks of, if it thinks of it at all, as somewhere you go to see the horses run. The residents of Epsom have asked Surrey Police reasonable questions. "Who are the suspects? What do they look like? Is there CCTV?" Surrey Police has declined to answer. They have said they do not have "sufficient information" to release descriptions. They have urged the public "not to speculate," because speculation "may lead to additional tensions within local communities." Translated from the institutional dialect, this means: we know what you are likely to conclude from the descriptions, and we would rather you didn't. On Tuesday evening, hundreds of residents gathered in the town centre to ask the question again. The police response was to deploy public order units, riot shields, and helmets against people standing on the pavement of their own high street demanding to know what the men who raped a woman six doors down from them actually look like. The local Lib Dem MP - who represents these people and the town - told the protesters to "take it elsewhere." "Take it elsewhere." This is the settled posture of the modern British state toward its own citizens. When a town asks for the most basic information about a violent sexual offence committed on its streets - information that, thirty years ago, would have been on the front of every regional paper within hours - it is met first with bureaucratic evasion, then with riot police, then with a sitting member of parliament telling them to do one. Epsom is not an unruly place. It is not a place with a history of disorder. It is a comfortable commuter town in Surrey whose residents have been told, in the space of seventy-two hours, that the police will not tell them who is hunting women on their streets, that asking about it constitutes a threat to community cohesion, and that if they persist in asking they will be treated as a public order problem. There is a specific and ugly contempt encoded in this response. It is the contempt of an administrative class that has decided the British public cannot be trusted with the truth about anything happening to it, and that the job of the state is no longer to solve the crime but to manage the reaction to it, forcibly. The people of Epsom have not misbehaved. They have done the thing that citizens of a serious country are supposed to do when something terrible happens where they live: they have turned up and asked questions. And the answer they have received, delivered in riot gear, is that their questions are the problem.

@wearetherace New Liberty races are D & E. Sums it up. Terrible tracks.

Admin asked The Race team to rate each track on the 2026 calendar, and then turned those ratings into an F1 track tier list.. Here are the results:

@wearetherace But I thought Domenicali said there were no problems?

First hints of another #F1 engine rule change that could come as early as 2027: ➡️ the-race.com/formula-1/the-… the-race.com/formula-1/the-…

@RawlinJulia @BBCNews Cannabis should be legal. She shouldnt be in jail at all

@BBCNews out in 8 mths, shocking how is that punishment

@F1 Good! A proper race track unlike these dreadful street circuits.

BREAKING: The Turkish Grand Prix will return to the calendar from 2027 as part of a new five-year agreement 🇹🇷 #F1 #TurkishGP

@SkySports F1's new era is terrible. Horrible street tracks. Sportswashing in the Gulf. Pointless Sprints. Dreadful engine regs.

The new era of F1 continues

@fia Counterproposal: Put Sprints in the bin.

Following consultation with all stakeholders, it has been agreed that Free Practice 1 (FP1) at the Miami Grand Prix will be extended to 90 minutes. As a result, the session will now run from 12:00 to 13:30 local time. All other track sessions planned before FP1 will also move forward by 30 minutes. This decision has been taken in recognition of the gap since the last Grand Prix, the recently announced regulatory and technical adjustments, and the fact that as the Miami Grand Prix operates under the Sprint format which reduces the amount of practice time available over the course of the weekend. #FIA #F1 #MiamiGP

Miami Grand Prix Free Practice 1 extended to 90 mins 🇺🇸 #FIA #F1 #MiamiGP

@wearetherace @XPBImages He thinks we're stupid. I hate that more than the damage he's done to F1. He can't even be honest about it.

The Race challenged Stefano Domenicali on whether the agreed changes to the 2026 regulations will solve all of F1's problems. His response? There are no problems:

@wearetherace Much better from Ed this time. Actually pushed back on Domenicali's bullsh!t. Proper journalism.

"#F1 has not any problems" - says its boss Stefano Domenicali, as we grill him on the criticisms of the 2026 rules so far: ➡️ the-race.com/formula-1/f1-h… the-race.com/formula-1/f1-h…

@wearetherace Still no mention of how we got here. These regs didnt fall from the sky. They were designed with money in mind, NOT what is best for the sport.

Changes to the #F1 rules are coming, yes. But it remains the case that the erosion of the driver's contribution has never been as profound as at the start of this era ➡️ the-race.com/formula-1/f1-2… the-race.com/formula-1/f1-2…

@Motor_Sport Same as Domenicali. Insulting our intelligence with this rubbish.

Mercedes F1 boss Toto Wolff has called Oliver Bearman’s crash in the Japanese GP a “misjudgement of a situation” rather than a result of the 2026 power unit regulations. Wolff used Le Mans as an example of people loving the racing there despite the speed differences between the cars, but insisted driver safety must remain the priority.

@InternetH0F Same with high heels and make-up.

@MarcusFysh @DavidPBMaddox @jeromestarkey Totally delusional.

@DavidPBMaddox @jeromestarkey Most mendacious administration in history I think, anywhere in the world.

Just pointing out that I broke the story 7 months ago that Mandelson failed vetting from the security services and put it to Downing Street...so the idea that Downing Street only found out on Tuesday is complete nonsense. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

@AC96772343 @KonstantinKisin You're obviously angry. Ask yourself: Is this good for you?

Economic revival incoming 🤡

@leeco7575 Yeah I did have you down as an idiot tbf.

@KonstantinKisin They must think we’re all stupid or something

@Alexarmstrong @GoodwinMJ

Incredible how quickly riot police can be deployed when it’s white British people peacefully protesting.
