Save Scotland from SNP / Greens & Labour.. UK politicians are literally destroying the North Sea oil & gas industry – and for what? Every £1m of wind turnover creates just 1 job. Oil & gas created 14.2 jobs per £1m (STUC report, Oct 2025). That’s 15 highly skilled, high-paid jobs lost for every 1 subsidised wind job – often built with Chinese turbines and zero in-house UK engineering. We’re throwing away billions in tax revenue, world-class expertise, energy security and competitiveness. Full lifecycle carbon footprint? Aggregate UK imports (Norway pipeline + US/Qatar LNG etc.) have a similar or higher footprint than our own domestic production. We’re not saving the planet – we’re offshoring emissions while gutting a strategic industry. Every other country with oil & gas is doubling down to keep energy cheap, protect jobs and stay competitive in manufacturing. This CO2 ideology is madness. Atmospheric levels today are two or three times lower than where they’ve been for much of our planet’s history – and life thrived. We’re sacrificing real British jobs, tax take and security on the altar of green virtue-signalling. Insane. Time to reverse this before it’s too late. #NorthSea #EnergySecurity #StopTheMadness

🚨NEVER EVER FORGET: This is what Keir Starmer said after Axel Rudakabana SLAUGHTERED 3 young girls in Southport. He didn't condemn the attack, no - He condemned us!! I thought I’d speed him up a bit .. as he’s so slow

There are Home Office staff facilitating the invasion of Britain. This is the man the Tories allowed to oversee their ‘deportation program’. A man who openly advocates for open borders. He, and others like him, will be escorted from the building the moment Reform wins power.

Ben Graham@BenGrahamUK·
Already under heavy scrutiny, Keir Starmer signs off on parachuting his niece into a “safe” seat in Croydon, after sidelining two respected local councillors. What message does that send? Not merit. Not fairness. Not democracy. At a time when trust in politics is already thin, this looks like pure entitlement. Is this really what “clean politics” looks like?

Very, very rarely political views can be used as a protected characteristic if they also align with philosophical belief which in turn can then indirectly come under religious belief which is definitely a protected characteristic. However it would take a brave and fearless judge to prosecute for discrimination on such an indirect relationship to a protected characteristic. Note for the hard of reading I AM SPECIFCALLY discussing the Weatherspoons incident and none other. Personally, I hope the Reform voters do try and prosecute. I think the naive young boy was very much in the wrong.

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer’s allies say he won’t resign after the local elections on May 7 “He’ll accept no deals, no pacts, no timetables [to resign]… a leader with a public exit date has no power… it’s surprising if a politician as experienced as Angela didn’t realise this” [@BBCNews]

🚨Labour’s Renters Rights Act backfires spectacularly — landlords are dumping properties due to the avalanche of red tape, tightening the rental market and pushing rent higher. Classic socialist thinking with zero awareness of the consequences.

There are now some disgruntled local Labour activists in Croydon after Keir Starmer’s niece was parachuted into one of the safest wards in London. Two longstanding Labour councillors were deselected for Keir Starmer’s niece. Remember when Labour claimed to be against nepotism?

Oil giant BP is threatening to quit the North Sea entirely with a £2 billion sale of its UK assets, new boss Meg O'Neill who took over just a month ago is now reviewing a full exit after Ed Miliband's latest tax raid and refusal to issue any new drilling licences, the energy secretary has already extended the windfall tax to a punishing 78 per cent on North Sea profits while branding BP's earnings "morally and economically wrong", BP's chief warned that any fresh tax raid would be "a highly flawed response to the situation", this would be another massive blow to Britain's energy security at a time when Middle East chaos from the Iran war is already pushing up bills, thousands of jobs and billions in investment are now at risk as Labour's Net Zero obsession drives major operators out,

Hey @AngelaRayner Is it true that on Monday, when you got so bladdered you screamed “I am a socialist” stormed off & crashed into a door, that you also called Labour Voters “thick racists” Asking for the 9.7 million people who voted Labour at the last election.

John Swinney etc are putting candidates at risk. I believe the Thomas Kerr/Reform attack is being underplayed by the media and was far more dangerous than being reported.

Can anybody in the Green Party see the problem with adding at least 18% to the minimum cost of employing an adult and at least 38% to the minimum cost of employing an 18 to 20-year-old? In just one year? Anybody?? 🤔 ft.com/content/431a16…

SHOCKING: A man who arrived in Britain by small boat JUST 16 days earlier has been found guilty of preparing a knife attack at the Israeli Embassy London. We’ve now had 20 foiled Iranian linked terror plots in the UK this year alone. At what point do we join the dots? Hostile states don’t just operate through embassies and cyber warfare they EXPLOIT weak borders. Sleeper cells don’t always arrive with fanfare. Sometimes they come quietly, across the Channel, undocumented, unvetted, and ready and this is how the hostile states operate. This is now a national security crisis.

The Herald reports that Team SNP can't even get Scottish Government civil servants to turn up for work Government offices around the country lie empty - at great public expense - while 9 out of ten staff work from home! What a waste of public money! heraldscotland.com/news/26068536.…
