@wakenminds It kind of is Listed buildings etc

This should be illegal

@studaviesreform I suspect this is just lurid nonsense for clicks

There must be a super injunction in place. No MSM coverage of the fact our Prime Minister was targeted by these men. Will the motive be uncovered during the trial? 10days to go.

@independentssd @RandPaul Yeah but its not the printing money that the clip says

@Stuarty771 @RandPaul they do and they are begging china to buy them

We bring in $5 trillion. We spend $7 trillion. We borrow the difference. The Fed prints money to cover it. That's inflation. And inflation is making you poorer.

@Free_to_leave @BladeoftheS Neoliberalism? I agree she's overrated - she wasnt that popular at the time, but the opposition werent good enough Huge changes during her time in office

@BladeoftheS When Maggie came to power in 1979, there were no billionaires and no food banks in the UK. She sold off our assets and set us down the path of neoliberalism. By 2024, there were 165 billionaires and 2,900 food banks in the UK.

Before Margaret Thatcher the UK had much cheaper rail, much cheaper mail, some of the cheapest Energy and Fossil Fuel in Europe and the cheapest water in Europe. Because we owned it.

@BladeoftheS This is not true on any interpretation

@redpilldispensr No, but enjoy the roubles

This woman presents a far more significant danger to Europe than Putin ever could.

@ItsMR_Badger @OnDisasters It wouldnt be It was less advanced than Tornado We dont what kind of TSR2 would've entered service even if theyd carried on

@OnDisasters Those who know have said it would probably still be in service today!

"All aircraft have four dimensions: span, length, height and politics. TSR-2 simply got the first three right". Quote by aeronautical engineer and designer of the Hawker Hurricane, Sir Sydney Camm, on the cancellation of the type.

@BeechF33A @OnDisasters It is early to be calling that

@OnDisasters GCAP headed for same fate?

@OnDisasters @Rhaggie144450 If it 'worked fine' it wouldve entered service We got Tornado a few years later which did a similar job

@Rhaggie144450 It worked fine. Needed time to refine, but not unusual

@PaulinusOfTrier It means appealing to popularity with oversimplified solutions to complex problems that appeal to an electorates base instincts

Does anyone else struggle to understand what precisely is meant by a populist ? Surely the whole idea of democracy is that the people elect the leader they like who, by definition, is the most popular candidate of the moment. Does that make him populist ? If not, what does?

@DavidMo60253972 @ramonagusta @Sara78187546 Well now I've read this, that must all be true

@ramonagusta @Sara78187546 He wouldn’t past basic police vetting. Liar, communist, rent boy lovers, radical Islam lover, dodgy land deals and dodgy transfers of cash/aid to foreign despots

Has Starmer passed vetting? 🤔

@peanut_astro @76567_to24683 That is a widely held view, so he's not making it up

@76567_to24683 I wasn’t. Are you shilling for this corrupt regime? Making up bullshit? politico.eu/article/donald…

🚨🚨🇬🇧🇬🇧 The bigger question that no one is asking. Why was Starmer so determined to get Mandelson to Washington? He did everything possible. Even ignoring British and US security advice allegedly. WHY? This story goes much deeper.

@LowStudies @afshinrattansi It wasn't continuous Trump campaigned on no new wars So was Trump manipulated into something by the deep state

'Anybody who studies the so-called foreign policies of the US and its vassals...will know that an enemy is essential.’ -John Pilger (1939-2023) The need for there to always be an enemy in US foreign policy is to justify the perpetual expansion of the military-industrial complex and budget for the War Department. Peace cannot break out, because if it does, the profits of the military-industrial complex will contract. War is a business, Iran is just the latest on the long list of enemies the US has used to justify this business. So long as the military-industrial complex is left to be an out-of-control shadow government controlling US foreign policy, the risk of global animation through world war and nuclear war will not go away.

@independentssd @RandPaul I thought they issued bonds to cover the difference

@RandPaul no shit, but thats how the system was design3d, to fuck us and rob our wealth, its a fucking discrace

@trussliz You have got this story wrong - the civil servant just fired (in charge, eh?) was almost certainly trying to please a political master Your judgement is still as terrible as ever

I hope the media is beginning to get it. The British system is dysfunctional. The bureaucrats are in charge and withhold information all the time. I have no sympathy for Starmer - he is an inveterate liar and he and his mates Blair and Brown created the unaccountable albatross we have today.

@AllisonPearson Wow a tweet of yours I agree with

It’s perfectly clear, isn’t it? Starmer wanted Mandelson to be Ambassador to DC. Mandelson wanted Mandelson to be Ambassador. Any other concerns - of ethics, propriety, risk - were ignored to make that happen. They got what they wanted even though it was wrong.

@ofjmx @DanielJHannan @BobCrauford Peace for the UK is the norm post cold war Blair deployed British troops 5 times in wars that never really had anything to do with 'peace at home' This is about Putin isn't it

@DanielJHannan @BobCrauford Because our political class have spent the last thirty years believing peace is the normal state and not something that needs to be protected and enforced.

Britain’s most enduring interest, as an island nation and global trader, is in open sea lanes. We cannot rely on others to do our work for us. We need a Royal Navy capable of projecting global strength. Instead, we spend five times more on social security than on actual security.

@DanielJHannan Ok, but is that a lot different from historical norms, post cold war, or even during the cold war?

@DavidPBMaddox All those times Keir repeated that 'vetting had taken place', he never once thought to confirm 'I'm saying he passed this, right?' , rather than the absurd confusion of implying he'd passed just from having done it

Just pointing out that I broke the story 7 months ago that Mandelson failed vetting from the security services and put it to Downing Street...so the idea that Downing Street only found out on Tuesday is complete nonsense. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

@Matthew26320290 @steverichards14 The DV assesment presumably highlighted risky aspects in his background (amongst them Epstein), and it was a steer that would've helped Starmer had he taken it He seems to have assumed DV was an entirely separate/distinct hurdle that could be moved aside

@steverichards14 My view was always Madelson was a risk worth taking. In business I have taken risks that have worked and others that failed, my knowing that failure is possible. DV is more about informing how to manage risk rather than hire or not. V embarrassing for PM but not fatal

The question of whether Starmer should have sacked Robbins is a valid and important one…but in a different order to whether he deliberately misled parliament…which would have been obviously fatal…so obvious that it didn’t make sense to assume he would have lied so brazenly.
