Trump: “The UK, our once great ally…we don’t need people that join wars after we’ve already won”

@DavidDack I’m still running at 71. London marathon GFA in April. Full Spine ultramarathon in June. And long term plans to keep enjoying my running. And cycling, swimming and S&C work.
English
My goal is to be a lifelong runner. I want to be the old guy who still shows up to the local 5K.
Not to win. Not to prove anything. Just to still be in the game when everyone else has “back issues” and excuses.

@EstherMcVey1 @sharrond62 Perhaps the contracts were set up be the previous government @Conservatives
English
We are all being taken for a ride.
Latest government figures show just one taxi company received nearly £350,000 a month for 6,000 journeys for migrants to travel to the doctors/ dentists /accommodation.
What a kick in the teeth to pensioners who are losing their Winter Fuel Allowance

@KemiBadenoch @DamianHinds @Conservatives @Telegraph I think you will find Brexit is identified as the main cause!
English
Britain now faces the WORST inflation in the G7. Why? Labour’s tax hikes & spending sprees have pushed up prices & killed growth.
@Conservatives will restore discipline: cut waste, balance the books, bring inflation down & get Britain growing again.
My piece in the @Telegraph👇

@afneil It’s how we chose to afford the welfare state. Many political choices made in recent decades that have made it seem unaffordable.

Europe can't afford its welfare state, what hope is there for Britain mol.im/a/15048083

@sharrond62 Read the judgement and you will see it is not political in itself even if it has a political impact. Just like your statement here.
English
A politicised judiciary is a slippery slope in the direction of the USA add a politicised civil service - and we’re in real trouble.

BREAKING‼️ The Home Office has WON the High Court battle over Epping’s Bell Hotel - thanks to the three Labour-voting judges: 🟥Justice Bean, from Society of Labour Lawyers 🟥Nicola Davies, a Labour-voting feminist 🟥Justice Cobb (R), who wanted to undo Brexit

@BBCBreakfast There should be no interest charge on student fees as the current system is regressive favouring the wealthy and higher earnings
English
'Why are they charged 9%?'
Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson told #BBCBreakfast 'we are looking at the student finance system' as she was questioned about the interest rate charged on tuition fees in England and Wales

@zoeharcombe @ProfTimNoakes Perhaps he read about it, wrote about it and did the maths… at school and at home.
English
Had some visitors yesterday - one was 7 yrs old.
I asked if he fancied some (dark) chocolate.
He asked me if it was Fair Trade!
He then started telling me about melting ice.
WTF happened to reading, writing and math?!

@RupertLowe10 You can still look at the content you just have to age verify. Nothing unusual here
English
A testimony given by a rape gang survivor to our inquiry has been censored.
Disgraceful.

@Councillorsuzie Having lived through many conservative governments going back to the 1960s I know who has most damaged this country and it is not Labour. They have had to pick up your pieces every time
English
Those of us that have lived through real socialist governments knew it would be bad with Labour in control but I doubt anyone would have dreamt that they would have damaged our country so badly in just on year. I dread the next year let alone another 4.

200 years of history wrecked by one year of Labour 🥀 Ideological and nasty. Very sad - lots of sympathy for the affected children, their parents and of course their teachers.

@BBCWorld About time. The majority of the population have been appalled for many months about what is happening in Gaza and the HMG response

@Conservatives Just need employers to pay a real wage and not expect low wages to be subsidised by the state. Simple solution
English
Britain is becoming a welfare system with an economy attached.
It can’t go on. Something has to change.
English
@KemiBadenoch @Conservatives Let’s just increase the minimum wage and pay higher wages. Just think more tax revenues, more spending in the high street, an economic recovery from austerity…
English
By next year, it’ll be possible to earn more on sickness benefits than working full-time on minimum wage. This has to stop.
Only @Conservatives have the courage to deal with this. I’ll share more at lunchtime. Don’t miss it.

🛑 Instead of rolling out the red carpet for Macron, we should have turned him back at the border. Show the French how it’s done…

What Starmerism forgets is that giving your money to BlackRock, Amazon and Palantir is taking money OUT of the economy.
Giving it to nurses, teachers and doctors is putting it INTO the economy.
It's not nurses who use tax havens!

@GuidoFawkes I’m sure there are some competent reporters out there who fact check before posting silly articles

@SaulStaniforth I think here briefing was heavily influenced by Israeli lobbyists. No logical explanation otherwise
English
This afternoon Lisa Nandy claimed: "chanting death to the IDF is equivalent to calling for the death of every single Israeli Jew"
People don't like genocide, and no amount of spin, lies or smears is going to change that.

@Keir_Starmer A silly statement that ignores many years of tension and aggression in the Middle East. The role of Israel in this escalation of escalations must not be ignored. A sad day.
English
Iran’s nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security. Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon and the US has taken action to alleviate that threat.
The situation in the Middle East remains volatile and stability in the region is a priority. We call on Iran to return to the negotiating table and reach a diplomatic solution to end this crisis.
