I never thought I’d say these words but Tony Blair is 100% right here and @Ed_Miliband should be removed from his post.

A reminder, last year I obtained from the Met Office documents that showed a staggering 80% of UK temperature stations are classified as 'poor or unreliable'
No internal audits or reviews to assess how these poor-quality stations might be distorting national climate trends.

According to documents I have obtained from the Met Office shows that a staggering 80% of UK temperature stations are classified as 'poor or unreliable' by international standards (WMO Class 3–5). These classifications are used globally by the UN to assess climate data integrity. Despite this, these lower-grade stations are still being used, without correction, in national climate datasets like HadUK-Grid, which directly inform Net Zero policy, media narratives, and claims of “record-breaking” temperatures. Even more concerning, the Met Office admitted it has conducted no internal audits or reviews to assess how these poor-quality stations might be distorting national climate trends. Not in the past decade. Possibly never. The Net Zero narrative could potentially collapse completely once its underlying data is properly scrutinised.

🚨NEW: It's been revealed that Keir Starmer is giving Mauritius *MORE* taxpayer cash!
This is unacceptable. Mauritius shouldn't get a SINGLE penny, the British people should come first.
The man is not fit for office!
English
@WilliamJHague Spot on! It’s like Starmer’s pre-election claim that as DPP he dealt robustly with the drug gangs so defeating the gangs aiding illegal immigration won’t be a problem for him.

Whatever happens next, Andy Burnham is in for a shock.
Metro mayors have created the impression that they’re smaller versions of running the country.
The job of Prime Minister in 2026 is not just bigger than leading a city. It’s radically different 👇

@sammysangel @PeterStefanovi2 Here’s the surprise: we’re not the only ones on planet earth and what we are doing currently re net zero is bankrupting ourselves and making not a jot of difference to the world’s climate.

@PeterStefanovi2 Closer to one of the worst if not the worst U.S. Presidents will benefit us how?I
And as the country cooks he is another selfish deluded rich man that thinks actions don't have consequences and we can go on abusing the planet.

Tony Blair tells Starmer and rivals: abandon net zero and move closer to Trump
In highly unusual intervention, ex-PM says his party’s ‘almost infinite capacity for self-delusion’ makes it likely to lose next election

Sweden just banned cousin marriages and close relative unions: law kicks in July 1, 2026.
No more recognising them from abroad either.
Reason: protecting kids from genetic risks and tackling forced marriages in parallel communities.
Well done Sweden 👏🏻 UK next?

Sweden has proposed a ban on cousin marriage, and Muslims are reportedly already outraged and threatening to leave the country.
“Cousin marriage is part of our culture. Banning it is Islamophobia. We will be forced to leave the country!”
Should Sweden go through with it?

The UK faces a 'tidal wave of illegal immigrants' this summer.
Time to declare a national emergency and call this what it is - an invasion.
Reject, detain, deport.
