🚨 WOW. The Iranian Islamic regime just publicly hanged 19-year-old champion wrestler Saleh Mohammadi as part of the crackdown on protests "His execution was a blatant political m*rder." Iranians who rise up are on the right side. Rest in peace 🙏🏻

@Artemisfornow I have learned that avoiding the morning rage involves not watching or reading any news until after lunch.

It’s not even 7am and I’m surrounded by incompetence. ▪️insane Net zero policy has destroyed traditional “virgin” steelmaking in the UK. ▪️The replacement electric arc furnace isn’t ready and that still depends on our massively expensive energy. (stop laughing at the back) The government’s BRILLIANT idea (this is sarcasm) is tariffs of 50% on imported steel. Making it more expensive. Er … The government is one of the biggest buyers of steel in the country. This policy simply increases the costs of taxpayer funded projects. And increases the price to businesses which will er … push prices up, raising inflation. It’s too early for this bollocks 🤡

@AngusBMacNeil @LauraBe36550188 Far better system than it just ending up on the cost of the air fare. At least it can be avoided if you are prepared to put up with some inconvenience.

@CraigMurrayOrg The reality is every flight requires diplomatic approval from every nation they intend to fly over and then integrated into the ATC network. On covert missions, much safer and easier just to avoid.

Rachel Reeves wants to get her hands on YOUR savings. £400 billion of auto-enrolment pension funds. So do Reform. It’s a power that no government should have. Conservatives will vote to stop them tomorrow. This is your money, not the Government’s.

Nick Timothy MP@NJ_Timothy·
The wilful misunderstanding in this post says everything about the people behind the “Islamophobia” definition. The point is not that Sikhs have danced on Trafalgar Square. Or that the Passion Play has been hosted there. Neither is the point that Muslims gathered on Trafalgar Square. The point is that mass ritual prayer in public - in this case next to a church - is an act of domination. So is the public call of the Adhan, which explicitly denies other religions including Christianity. That is the difference. And yet neither Dominic - nor the Labour MPs who were instructed by No10 to attack me last night - will engage with the substance. Instead he claims he knows my personal views when we haven’t talked, and incorrectly describes me as a spokesman for the Free Speech Union. People like Dominic can’t work out why the ideological world they built is falling apart. They never pause to wonder if perhaps they might have got things very badly wrong.
Dominic Grieve@dominicgrieve_

This is a very odd post from a Conservative who says he believes in freedom of expression under law and is a principal spokesman of the Free Speech Union. I appreciate that he does not like Islam and there is no reason why he should. As a Christian it is not my faith. But the use of Trafalgar Square ( with permission) for religious events Christian and other goes back a long way. There have been prayers and hymns, chants and religious events performed there in the past. If such an event 'shouldn't happen again' it raises the question of whether this is to apply to all religious events or just to Muslim ones. If to all, then we are moving like France to imposing secularism as a norm and it is contrary to our national tradition and does not seem to have helped develop social cohesion there.If just to Muslims then it is an act of discrimination against them without any lawful basis. To achieve it you would have to enact discriminatory legislation targeted at Muslims. Is this what Nick Timothy is advocating ?

Also the most backward. It assumes we must more closely align with the EU again because it remains a great economic success story when the reality is it’s a bloc in long-term, systemic and increasing decline. A mid-tech backwater which is nowhere in AI or any other major development of the digital economy (in which the UK is doing rather well). Labour’s strange, nostalgic, outdated obsession with Europe is reminiscent of the Old Tory Colonel Blimps and their longing to recreate the British Empire.
George Eaton@georgeeaton

Reeves says in her Mais lecture that “Brexit did deep damage” and that “our fate as a country is inescapably bound with that of Europe”, vowing to make the case for closer alignment. This is the most pro-European speech a cabinet minister has given since 2016.

Rachel Reeves says that Brexit did 'deep damage' to the UK's economy, equivalent to an 8 per cent hit to GDP She says it has led to higher costs for businesses, higher prices in shops and shrinking markets for exporters 'Brexit did deep damage. Recent independent studies indicate its GDP impact could be as much as 8 per cent. It has meant higher costs for businesses, and therefore higher costs in our shops. It has meant shrinking markets for UK exporters and our strategic industries exposed as protectionist barriers rise worldwide. 'Deals with India, the US and other allies are extremely welcome and beneficial but no trade deal with any individual nation can outweigh the importance of our relationship with a bloc with which we share a land border, with which our supply chains are closely intertwined and that accounts for almost half our trade. There is also a strategic imperative for deeper integration between the UK and the EU. Where it is in our national interest to align with further EU regulation we should be prepared to do so'

So if Reeves’s claim that Brexit cost us 8% of GDP is correct it would mean we’d have grown four times more than Japan/Germany and almost twice France/Italy. Up there with Canada/US. If you believe that I have a bridge to sell you. In reality, even with Brexit, we were fastest growing European economy in G7. Just a tad more than France (with no Frexit).

And here's headline GDP on the same basis (similar points apply)... 🤔

Say what you like about 'Ed Miliband's obsession with renewables'. But wind and solar power continue to provide Britain with electricity regardless of Donald Trump's Middle East policy.
