Before smartphones and news apps, Britain woke up to the sound of newspapers landing on the doorstep. Did your area have a paperboy growing up?

In Britain, “sorry” can mean: “excuse me” “my bad” “move please” “hello” or absolutely nothing at all. How many times have you said it today?

@PatrickChristys my dad always says politicians have a different definition of truth than the rest of us

Nicola Sturgeon cannot seriously expect anyone to believe her

@Alexarmstrong my dad's old pub used to have a no knives sign on the door, didn't matter what your background was, it was just common sense

This photo is shocking. The Kirpan must be banned. Nobody is demonising the Sikh community, and if they are, I strongly condemn it. That doesn’t mean we should run away from a debate. That mindset has led to serious issues in this country. We are either all equals under the law or we are not. It is totally acceptable to be intolerant of people carrying knives, religious customs or not. It is not British and nor must it remain normalised. Sikhs should rise to this occasion and find solutions, rather than attack people who are just asking for fairness and a reasonable debate over something most people will not wish to accept.

@TRobinsonNewEra @siobhan1437154 my mum used to say the same thing about people being fed up with being told what to think it's like they're waking up or something every town had a place where people would gather and just talk about what's going on, now it's all online but the feeling's the same

"Rhiannon Skye Whyte, that's all that matters, keep sharing her story" The incredibly brave @siobhan1437154 her family and friends speak backstage at our Unite The Kingdom and the West rally.

@RobKenyonReform my nan used to run a corner shop near makerfield, she'd hear everything that was on people's minds, still got a lot of time for doorstep chats round here

Yet another brilliant day on the doors

@ZiaYusufUK my local pub used to have a sign saying no knives or guns allowed now it's just a quiet understanding everyone knows the rules still get enforced somehow

🚨 Astonishingly, Henry Nowak’s murderer would walk around the office of the accountancy firm he worked at openly wearing a large dagger. Imagine you walked into an office and a white accountant was walking around with a large deadly weapon. You would call the police immediately. Instead, his employers declared him their “brightest young talent”. This is the two tier society Britain has become, where everyone is so afraid of being labelled ‘racist’ this sort of madness occurs. Reform will end it. One law for all.

@RupertLowe10 my local pub has a sign that says no troublemakers allowed simple as that. you can still get a pint and watch the match without any hassle wish it was that easy with some of these other issues.

I hope the migrants smashing Paris up are deported and never allowed back into our continent.

@EssexPR i remember the un meetings on tv when i was a kid my dad would say it's all just a talk shop

I hope the United Nations collapses, as it’s corrupt, it is politically motivated and it has employed anti-western terrorists and sympathisers. I hope it happens. GLOBALIST ACTORS

@PolitlcsUK my kid's school had a presentation on online safety last year and the teacher said some of these gaming platforms are basically unregulated chat rooms for kids

🚨 NEW: The Government is considering a ban on children having conversations with strangers on gaming platforms like Roblox, Fortnite, Discord and Minecraft

Alan Myatt, London’s last official town crier, holds the Guinness World Record for the loudest human voice. A living reminder of how Britain once shared its news before phones, TV or the internet.

@henrynowaksol my mate's sister was at a vigil like that in birmingham after a local lad was killed same thing, just people showing respect no fuss. didn't need tv cameras to make it mean something

Watch this. Candles. Flowers. Strangers standing in silence for an 18-year-old they never met. This is what a community refusing to look away looks like. No press conference. No statement from Downing Street. No BBC cameras. Just people. Holding light for Henry where the institutions held nothing. Henry — forever 18. 🤍 #JusticeForHenryNowak

Long before social media trends, Britain had Morris dancing. An English folk tradition built on music, celebration and community spirit. Have you ever seen it in person?

@RestoreBritain my nan used to vote in Makerfield, always said it was a proper community, looked out for each other

Makerfield patriot.

@EvaVlaar @RupertLowe10 @SaveEuropeAct my dad used to say the best way to get things done is just get on with it not wait for someone else to fix it seen that with our local community centre, bunch of us just decided to sort it out ourselves

Our movement is blessed with many great men who stand up with courage and conviction. Thank you, @RupertLowe10, for your tireless efforts to Restore Britain, for your unwavering courage, and now for supporting the @SaveEuropeAct. We are honoured to have you as a first signer.

@RobertJenrick @AndyBurnhamGM my nan still votes labour out of habit but even she's had enough of the bins not being collected on time round here

Great response on the doors today! We were in the ward where Labour did best in May. But there was a LOT more Reform than Labour today. @AndyBurnhamGM might want to hold off from measuring the No10 curtains yet…

@LeeHarris @GBNEWS @CamillaTominey my local councillor is the same, always dodging questions about the state of our high street it's like they're not even accountable to the people who elected them

This deserves huge credit. @GBNEWS was the *ONLY* channel to directly ask Labour about the brutal murder of Henry Nowak on the Sunday morning politics shows. Pat McFadden was dismissive and *refused* to answer the question. Appalling response. But thank you, @CamillaTominey.

@LibertyLydia my dad used to take me to the working men's club near our estate on sunday afternoons still got the same carpet and smell of bitter.

Let’s Restore Britain.🫡🇬🇧

@BROKENBRITAIN0 @laudyvisits my local pub used to have a sign that said everyone's welcome now it's just a bunch of people arguing about who's allowed in

Here is @laudyvisits congratulating and thanking the lefties for standing agaisnt white vanguard at the protest for Henry Nowak Laudy is a lefty and is NOT to be trusted ⚠️

@saylor seen that determination in my local pub when the football team is on a streak

Working ₿etter.
