@DavidDavisMP Yeah, cos dont we have all the cards ?

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…

@RossKempsell You working today like our PM ? Or just spouting crap on here ?

Car radio: “Prime Minister Keir Starmer is in Armenia today” Lmao PM why are you in Armenia on bank holiday Monday! Get out and see some hospitals or police stations - this guy spends NO time in the country he is supposed to run - no wonder he has no idea what’s going on!

@AaronSwney @JeromeDavies1 @LondonEconomic @Labour_Douglas You can tell all of that from Spain ?

@JeromeDavies1 @LondonEconomic @Labour_Douglas Based on what? Business closures? Crime? Unemployment? Taxes? Wealth exodus? Record welfare bills? Rape gang cover ups? England didn't get to the rape capital or Europe by accident

Small boat crossings down 42% NHS waiting lists at lowest level in 3 years Government borrowing at a 3-year low Unemployment falling UK back as the world’s 5th largest economy (IMF) While Reform shouts at cricket bats, Labour is quietly fixing the country thelondoneconomic.com/opinion/while-…

@AaronSwney @LondonEconomic @Labour_Douglas Give over. Employment has been on a down tre d since covid and even at 4.9, based on historical numbers is still very low. Nhs waiting lists and small boats are down, those numbers dont lie

@LondonEconomic @Labour_Douglas Who are you trying to fool!? Unemployment up since Labour took over, 4.2 to 4.9% Small boat crossings too NHS cancellations and rescheduling does not count Just constant stream of lies like we can't read data

@CrookRanald @PippaCrerar @peterwalker99 Nhs waiting lists are down, small boats are way down (so far this year), they have been transparent on all issues with this gov. And finally, recognising the Palestinian state and sanctioning members of the Knesset is not blind support. It might not be all you want but...

@PippaCrerar @peterwalker99 Not true. Prior to the election Starmer ridiculed the Tories over, among other things, Illegal Immigration; NHS waiting lists; lack of growth: the need to clean up Parliament with "transparent" government. "Change" was the word. What did we get? Blind support of Israel.

NEW: Labour MPs are calling for end to “endless drama” of leadership speculation, with some warning that repeated briefings about toppling Keir Starmer are putting off voters, @peterwalker99 reports. “All people want is a government which works, and not the endless drama. We are in a very tricky global situation, and to have this never-ending conversation about who might have a certain number of supporters feels extremely self-indulgent,” says one MP. Worries are shared even among some who strongly believe Starmer should be replaced. “You can both think the PM isn’t the right man to lead us into the next election and that now isn’t the right time to replace him." theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

@stuey_beef If you gave a private firm the same amount of money you pay in national insurance you would get about 20-30% each year of what the state pension pays. Noone is defrauding, its just not affordable, and ordinary tax money (not NI) is paying for it.

The state pension is not a random government favour, it’s the back end of a 35–40 year compulsory “contract” where people are forced to hand over National Insurance on the clear promise of a basic pension at the end. Politicians and think tanks helped design an unfunded, pay‑as‑you‑go system where today’s workers pay today’s pensioners, then have the gall to call it “unsustainable” as if the public dreamt it up. If a private firm sold you a retirement product on fixed terms, took your money for four decades, then announced at 66 that you “didn’t really need it” and would henceforth be means‑tested or frozen, they would be in court for mis‑selling and fraud. The crisis here is not pensioners “leeching off the young”, it’s a political class that built a Ponzi‑style NI system, diverted the proceeds for other spending, and now wants to default on the people who kept their side of the bargain. You do not blame the victims of a defective product for believing the brochure; you go after the people who wrote it.

@RachelD1892 Hey Rachel, dry your eyes.

In the latest crushing bad news for the UK, Prime Minister Keir Starmer insists he's staying put whatever the local election results. He will redefine his 'vision' for the country and insists he is the best person for the job. Looks like he'll have to be prised out, screaming.

@StonelawLtd @KathrynPorter26 @UKLabour Last Tory government tripled the national debt, managed to some how keep productivity at the lowest level in the G7, and embarked upon the most economically damaging project since the war. Sit down..

@KathrynPorter26 @UKLabour Same shit different era !

The highest tax burden since the 1940s and record government borrowing still isn't enough apparently Time for @UKLabour to stop spending other people's money and get a grip on spending And de-regulate. The country is being strangled by red tape. Just look at the new Thames crossing... More than £1 billion spent and they haven't broken ground yet Cut regulation. Return to principles based regulation and stop trying to control every aspect of our lives

@iwaslabour @SaulStaniforth @ZackPolanski Absolute nonsense

@SaulStaniforth @ZackPolanski So 88% of Labour MPs are Tories - factually making life WORSE for the poorest than the last Tory government. Labour / Tories / Reform - they are 3 parts of the same Corporate / Billionaires / Bankers team. Time for a genuine left wing party. theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

.@ZackPolanski: "The 50 wealthiest families in this country own more wealth than 34 million people. That's unsustainable. The govt say there is no money left. There's plenty of money. It needs to be in our communities, both for the environment & for the people we serve"

@BarthorpeNigel @SaulStaniforth @ZackPolanski And through inheritance tax (and the loop holes labour has closed) that gets recycled into society

@SaulStaniforth @ZackPolanski The government will always protect the rich & their interests. But they always go after the sick & poor to fund things & leave the rich alone. If that's not being divisive, I don't know what is. Billionnaires have so much money they'll never use.

@SaulStaniforth @ZackPolanski Zac is really bad at maths

@davepl1968 Thing of bueaty

My 12k mile 1970 Continental Mark III

@NetZeroWatch @Ella_M_Whelan This is hysterical nonsense

"Despite the fact that heat-pump models are more expensive, run colder (and therefore take longer to dry), can be louder and take up more space, the Government has decided this is the only option households should be allowed," says @Ella_M_Whelan, concluding "Ed Miliband hates women. He must do. Why else would Labour’s green dictator go to war on a mother’s most prized possession: her tumble dryer?" #CostOfNetZero

@GBNEWS Another old tory fossil who fcked things up for years

Labour have ‘crippled’ the economy says Jeff Banks in devastating assessment of nation’s finances gbnews.com/news/video-eco…

@suespensley How are they going to make your life better ?

I'm not a racist or a fascist I am a mum and grandma who has worked from 15years until my retirement I have always loved my country but am so disillusioned with the present and past governments who have let the country down in many ways That's why I am voting for Reform 🩵🩵🩵

@BenGrahamUK Effective political operator who shared a video of soldiers at bloody sunday arguing they should recieve an amnesty? The bar is clearly so so low for Tories these days

In the last 6 months, Kemi Badenoch has become one of the most effective operators in British politics. She has consistently held Keir Starmer to account, dismantled weak arguments, and used data to pin him down. Clear, composed, and increasingly hard to ignore with her tough stance on crime.

@SorchaEastwood Of course, money just falls from the sky

As I wake up this morning to news of yet another fantastic local cafe closing, you bet these Labour Budgets have been disastrous. With boots firmly on the necks of small businesses, the increased NICS, highest VAT rates for hospitality in Europe, clobbering farmers & disabled people. They chose to balance the books on the backs of hard workers and the vulnerable. They are different ways of doing things. The ramifications of these budgets are hitting communities hard and I won't be quiet about it!

@kezia_noble This easy, its because you are a racist

Why do I have a strange feeling that these new rules on renting won’t help ordinary renters. But will somehow help to house illegal migrants? Let’s see 🔮👀

@BBCNews Because he was allowed

How did Banksy put up a statue in central London? bbc.in/4tDGACG

@BBCBreakfast Just Tories continuing to demonstrate how tone deaf and ill informed they are over NI and continue, as they always did, to use it as a political point scoring football

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has been criticised for posting a social media video opposing reforms to the Legacy Act that featured footage of soldiers on Bloody Sunday. Thirteen people were shot dead when the Army opened fire on civil rights demonstrator. The Tories said the video was removed "as soon as we were made aware of the footage". bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
