@mentalist1708 @KemiBadenoch @Conservatives Half a freddo? Have to admit I haven’t checked the going rate in 2026.

@KemiBadenoch @Conservatives The "Daily Grind" Breakdown If we take that £200 and spread it across a standard 365-day year, here is what that looks like: Yearly Savings: £200.00 Monthly Savings: £16.67 Weekly Savings: £3.85 Daily Savings: £0.55 What can you actually do with £0.55 a day?

Labour want an energy bailout for Benefits Street, paid for by working people. The @Conservatives want to get drilling our own oil and gas, scrap Ed Miliband’s green taxes, and abolish VAT on energy bills. This would save EVERYONE £200 and get Britain working again.

@KemiBadenoch @Conservatives Imagine holding up the daily express to support any point other than the erosion of journalistic standards. You’re a joke, Kemberley.

@JustEatUK Hey. Will do. For clarity I cancelled the order because the ETA just kept going up so I killed it after 2 hours of waiting. The food was probably never even cooked.

@longlostpal_ Hey👋️We definitely don't expect orders to arrive late and to be cancelled. Drop us a DM with your order number and any additional information and we will take a look into this for you.

@JustEatUK no food after 2 hours, still no drivers apparently. Cancelled the order, received an email saying “if you have been charged there will be no refund for this order” Please explain?

@KemiBadenoch Oh hush Kemberley. You wanted us in the war right up Trump’s arse. Don’t try and climb down now. We all saw it.

Keir Starmer is once again throwing someone he appointed under the bus, instead of taking responsibility. The conflict in the Middle East is having a huge impact on our food costs, mortgages and energy prices. But Downing Street is distracted, and has now started a briefing war with the Chief of the Defence Staff - a man appointed by the Prime Minister less than a year ago. Starmer’s advisers are telling journalists that the CDS has "failed" and "lost the confidence" of the No10. With this Prime Minister it's ALWAYS someone else's fault. The Mandelson vetting, his Chief of Staff, the former Cabinet Secretary…Keir Starmer will knife anyone before he accept's responsibility for his own failures and his own terrible judgement.

@GoodwinMJ TL:DR you’re a muppet and an embarrassment.

The removal of historical figures such as Winston Churchill from English banknotes may appear trivial to some. But it isn’t. It matters far more than many people realise. Because what we are witnessing is not an isolated decision about banknote design. It is part of something much larger: a slow but relentless erosion of our national culture, identity, and collective memory. As Professor Frank Furedi has observed, we are living through what he calls “the War Against the Past.” Across the Western world, an assortment of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion bureaucrats, radical activists, and increasingly compliant public institutions are engaged in a cultural project that seeks to delegitimise our national histories and strip away the symbols that once anchored our collective identity and memory. The pattern is now familiar. Statues are toppled. Historical figures are reframed as morally suspect or “divisive”. Public institutions rename buildings, spaces, Tube lines. School and university reading lists are “decolonised”. The past itself is rewritten to emphasise only its sins while ignoring its achievements. Even the quiet symbolism of everyday life — the images on our currency, the names of our streets, the monuments in our squares — is steadily edited and sanitised. What replaces these symbols is rarely anything meaningful. Instead of historically significant figures who helped shape the nation, we are offered neutral, universal imagery that stands for almost nothing at all — landscapes, wildlife, abstractions. On the surface this seems harmless. But symbolism matters. For centuries, historical figures served as cultural signposts, reminders of the history, struggles and achievements that shaped the nation and its people. Remove those signposts, and something subtle but important begins to change. The past becomes distant. Then contested. And then disposable. Gradually, the story of a nation — its triumphs, failures, and defining moments — is hollowed out. In its place emerges a new idea of national identity that is deliberately thin: one that defines Britain not through its history or traditions but through the abstract celebration of diversity itself. In other words, the only thing that is meant to define us is that we have no defining identity at all. The endpoint of this cultural project is not inclusion but historical amnesia, or cultural erasure. A society that is detached from its past, uncertain of its traditions, and unsure of what binds it together. This is what Sir Roger Scruton meant when he wrote: “A society that loses its memory loses its identity.” And that loss happens gradually, through thousands of seemingly small decisions — a statue removed here, a curriculum altered there, a historical figure quietly replaced on a banknote. Each individual change may appear insignificant. But taken together they represent something far more profound: the slow disconnection of a people from their own history and collective memory. A people who no longer really know who “we” are. I doubt the bureaucrats who made this decision at the Bank of England fully grasp the cultural significance of what they are doing. But intention is not the point. The effect is what matters. When we remove the symbols of our past, we further weaken the very foundations of our identity. Or Orwell warned: “The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history.” This is what is happening and accelerating around us. This is what Furedi meant by the “War Against Our Past”. And this is why it really matters. Not because of one banknote. But because of the much larger cultural story it represents.

@phat_cntrllrs Plus how many times did we just cough up the ball. You can’t give it up all over the pitch, and still expect to win. Even against Scotland.

Scotland the better team in this match. Trust them to suddenly turn up against England! 😅 England didn’t help themselves. Two tries ‘gifted’ a bit, but still second best. #SCOvENG

@allTxs Really? Didn’t think they were always coming back hard after Italy, against an England team who really didn’t get tested last week? It always looked like a perfect storm for another England choke in the Calcutta cup

Big win from Scotland, I’d have written them off pre-game to be honest. Fair play. #SCOvENG

Lucky we didn’t manage a comeback really, state of us today we’d have ended up dropping the fucking cup #SCOvENG

@SeanOR7 He didn’t make us drop the egg as much as we did to be fair.

Congratulations to Nika Hamish Amashukeli for his outstanding performance in Scotland’s win. A fine game from the Scotsman. 👏🏻👏🏻 #SCOvENG

@grumpyoldmanjp @siwalton_ Are we ignoring the amount of handling errors we made then? Absolutely shocking. We’re our own worst enemies.

@siwalton_ Scotland won fair and square - just the better team today and by a distance. No one handed it to them ….they took it.

England handed this to Scotland. Pathetic performance #scoveng

@siwalton_ I mean SCO did turn up (no surprise,we know they always do against us…) but yeh, we made them look mint.

There you go then, we can’t skip training for the week just because we beat Wales. If we didn’t skip it, then we certainly looked like we did. Absolutely woeful. SCO played well but we made them look unstoppable #SCOvENG

@johnredwood They aren’t imported laws if you’re in the club that makes them are they you giant sausage.

Since we left the EU our worldwide trade has grown well and our economy has done a bit better than France and Germany. The UK cannot afford to send large sums of money to the EU. We do not need more imported laws and regulations to thwart enterprise and destroy more jobs.

@ITV needs to bore off with these adverts at the scrum. People who understand the game want to hear analysis, or see a replay or hear what players are talking to the ref about in the little breaks in play. This isn’t America. Stop it.

@Suffragent_ NPC Pete’s arse just be freezing the amount of times he has his pants pulled down over bullshit fake news posts!

75% of England's Mayors are muslim. What's going on?

@PatrickChristys If that’s your idea of militant then you must find big army men really scary.

You don’t have to be on the side of Nigel Farage to be against these aggressive, far-left, militant thugs

@LeeAndersonMP_ He was in and out of loads of parties. Does that ring any bells as a life situation, Lee?

Oswald Mosley? Wasn't he a Labour MP?

@_HenryBolton Raise you one Boris Johnson.

Keir Starmer can’t even wear a suit properly. You never do the bottom button up and the sleeves are too long. When did he last wash his hair? He’s an absolute horror. I yearn for the day a British Prime Minister is once again the most impressive person on the international stage, rather than one of the least.

@RobertJenrick Bore off Bob.

After I resigned from the last Government I could finally speak my mind publicly. I called for the aid budget to be cut and the money given to defence. I was told by the Conservative Party that “there is a really special place in hell for me”. These people can’t fix Britain.
