A school that could survive Viking raiders, the Norman conquest, the Reformation, the Civil War, the Blitz cannot survive Labour’s vindictive VAT changes. Desperately sad.

Every other government: “You don’t want us to pay to educate your children? You’re offering to do it yourself? Thank you. How can we make it easier?” UK Labour: “Evil toffs! Count yourselves lucky we don’t close you down altogether!”

Hey @Morrisons I will never buy ONE thing from you ever again unless this guy, trying to stop shoplifting, is reinstated. RETWEET IF YOU AGREE

Explain this to me. Why is it that a gathering of mostly white working-class men protesting about a rape is met by a line of menacing riot cops, and yet a gathering of primarily non-white youths running riot on a high street is given the kid-glove treatment? Following the events in Epsom last night, this query should be on everyone’s lips. ✍️ Brendan O’Neill Article | spectator.com/article/epsom-…

DID YOU KNOW? The pollster Omnisis / WeThink has asked a representative sample of the British public over 50 times in the past two years, whether or not they would want to rejoin the EU if it meant accepting the Euro. A majority voted to stay out, in *100%* of the polls.

💯% I do! It’s pure evil & an awful way to treat animals! THIS IS A COUNTRY OF ANIMAL LOVERS always has been & always will be!!

Britain has been a Christian nation for over 1,400 years. Through wars, plagues, and countless kings, Easter has always been celebrated. Yet now, Cadbury won’t even use the word ‘Easter’ on their eggs. When did celebrating British traditions become controversial?

Britain should never be facing an energy and food security crisis. The fact that we are is due to the incompetence of successive governments. And Ed Miliband’s decision to ban new oil and gas licenses in the North Sea is an act of monumental stupidity - especially right now.

Monday’s Cobra economic crisis meeting needs to end the bans on UK oil and gas, cancel the autumn fuel duty increase , cut fuel duty and tax on domestic gas. This can be paid for by welfare reform, stopping the Chagos give away and no extra money for EU re set.

To those saying it will take years to get new oil & gas out the North Sea… It won’t. 👉 Jackdaw - can be producing gas in 3 months. 👉 Rosebank - can be producing oil in the autumn. Miliband just needs to approve them. Everyday he waits, the further away this supply gets.

Dear Cadbury, “From Cadbury this season.” What season? Go on, say it. It’s EASTER. You are selling EASTER eggs for the EASTER SEASON. How dare you profit off a Christian holiday while erasing its Christian origins. They are Easter eggs. It is Easter. Shame on you.

@MbarkCherguia @MichyUK Yes, in about 1968 we went to the park after church and I shot down the big slide in my pale pink Sunday best dress, landed spectacularly in the muddy puddle at the bottom and had to walk home across town dripping wet and very muddy

I actually do not remember this. Does anyone here? 🤔

This is something we are seeing echoed across Europe and here in the U.K. “Progressive” governments and institutions treating people who claim to be offended as marginalised victims requiring protection, and falling over themselves to either punish or override the rights of the so-called offenders. The example discussed here involved a woman wearing a maxi dress - something that reaches the ankles, but likely reveals bare arms and shoulders. The woman in question was shamed by the educational institution, given a written warning and warned not to wear that type of dress again - simply because someone complained that the dress offended their religious ideology. We are seeing an increase in women’s rights being overridden in western societies with regard to their personal safety, harassment from others and even freedom of speech - and it’s all done in the name of “inclusivity”. Now an institution has told a young woman not to wear clothing because someone found it offensive?? This sets a dangerous precedent, and has to stop.

“More than 6500 rapes and sexual assaults - some against children under 13 - have been committed in hospitals in England and Wales over nearly four years   Only 265 people (4.1 per cent) are known to have been charged for these offences.  Despite the fact that hospitals are closely monitored by CCTV and wards often have secure entry systems, only 4.1 per cent are known to have resulted in a charge or summons. Five forces – City of London, Durham, Devon and Cornwall, Northamptonshire and North Yorkshire – did not issue a single summons or charge a single suspect for any of the 334 sexual assaults in their areas.” womensrights.network/hospital-report

@MichelleDewbs @sharrond62 One million pounds between 9 forces!? They'll waste more than having meetings to decide how to spend it!

So let me get this straight… ▪️You allow men from cultures which disregard women’s rights left/right/centre to illegally enter the country. You put them in communities often not far from schools etc. ▪️You know some of these men are multiple times more likely to commit sexual attacks than Brits. ▪️You know there have already been multiple sexual attacks, rapes, assaults and even murder committed by some of these men against women/girls. The lives of multiple women and girls ruined as a result. ▪️You know that some classrooms have grown men in them, mixing daily with teenagers, whilst pretending to be one. ▪️You know that many women and girls feel unsafe in their own homes towns now, because of your policies. ▪️You know that you refuse full data transparency on much of this stuff, so we don’t even really know how bad this all is. ▪️And you know that you take tax from women in this country to fund hotels and lifestyles for these men. Yet now… You’ve decided to redirect a few hours worth of hotel spend, back onto women, in order to protect us and our children from risks that we should never have been exposed to in the first place. ….And you expect us to be grateful?! Hang your heads in shame. How dare you. 😡

An extremely grim sight to watch Labour MPs vote to remove trial by jury because the whips told them to, after a debate in which expertise& learning were laughed at. This form of governance, the ill-intentioned leading the ill-informed, is sadly our future spectator.com/article/david-…
