People in Wales are not happy with Labour

Is this country even a country without abundant pubs? Beer at £7 a pint is a policy choice just like £2 a litre for fuel. And that choice is being made by puritanical cunts who fear people who can drive, and enjoy drinking. People like this cunt:

@jessicaelgot @JoshHalliday There is no safe Labour seat. The party is totally despised!

Burnham has several seats in contention and a replacement lined up for GM mayor. Read the full story - by @JoshHalliday and me. theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

EXC - Andy Burnham has a credible plan to return to Westminster “within weeks”, allies say. He is expected to use a byelection fight to set out an agenda for government. His allies will ask Starmer to set a timetable for departure - and to potentially stay as Foreign Secretary

@stuey_beef I have been selling my properties as tenants have left. There is no social housing in this area and people want to rent as getting a deposit for house purchase is astronomical. This just increases demand for a smaller and smaller pot. Total disaster.

Savills estimate around a quarter of a million rental homes have been put on the market in a single year, and landlord‑side analysis talks openly about an “increase in landlords selling or leaving the private rented sector” as Section 21 disappears. Legal firms are now advising that, once the Act is fully in force, landlords will be forced to rely on Section 8 and slow, defended court cases to deal with arrears and antisocial behaviour, in a court system that’s already “under significant strain.” That combination – weaker rights to regain possession, more legal jeopardy, higher compliance costs – is exactly why many rational small landlords look at their spreadsheet and conclude the only sensible option is to sell. Labour can call that “levelling up tenants’ rights”; renters will call it “no flats available and rents through the roof.”

Renewal letter lands through the door. You haven't crashed, you haven't moved, you haven't changed jobs, you haven't made a single claim. The car's a year older, so by any normal logic the premium should be coming down. It's gone up anyway. Decent jump on it too. You ring them. 'Yeah it's the market mate, premiums are up across the board, nothing we can do.' You try a comparison site. Cheapest quote anywhere is still well above what you paid last year. What you're actually paying for is other people's claims, fraud, theft, and garages charging stupid money to replace a wing mirror — none of which has anything to do with you. It's the only product in the country you're legally required to buy, where the seller can put the price up every year for reasons nobody will properly explain.

The UK in numbers. April 2026. 🇬🇧 💀 12,252 personal insolvencies in March alone 💀 460 businesses going bust every week 💀 £312 million spent on debt interest every single day 💀 Ambulance response times double the national target

The police wrote "misgendering" as a justification for arresting me. They also wrote "Mrs Farrow refuses to admit she has done anything wrong" on a failed application to silence me. I hadn't. The CPS agreed. Of course they take sides.

The great Sarah Vine. Best legal representation evah.

More “gender neutral” toilets in universities in the UK. You’d think students would know basic biology before getting to university as there is no such thing as “gender neutral” These toilets put biological females at risk, and it needs to stop!.. Wake up from woke bullshit!

Landlords are bailing out. New research shows that some 254,000 buy-to-let properties in Britain came on to the market in the year to the end of March. That's 700 a day & it's an increase of 28% over 2024. Taxing & regulating landlords out of the market will result in tenants paying higher rents. It's such an obvious point but many politicians refuse to understand it.

🚨 MEET ZOE ROGERS 🚨 22. Bristol, UK. She stood in court and claimed she “saved innocent lives.” Here’s what that looked like: August 6, 2024. 3AM. A van smashed through the gates of a weapons facility in Bristol. Drones and equipment smashed with sledgehammers. Red paint everywhere. Then police arrived. One of her comrades struck a female Sergeant in the back with a sledgehammer, fracturing her spine. That's the “activism” Zoe Rogers is proud of. Then she stood in court and congratulated herself. “I can say with absolute certainty that this is the best thing I’ve ever done…” “I’m proud…” No, Zoe. You are not a hero. You are not a freedom fighter. You’re standing on a woman’s fractured spine and calling it courage. Shameful.

Keir Starmer was asked a direct question in the wake of the stabbings on "Golders Green." Does your wife, from a Jewish family, fear living in this country? His answer: "I don't want to personalise it to my family." Let that sit for a moment. This is a man who has built an entire political persona on personalising everything. His dad the toolmaker. His mum the nurse. His mum the patient. His wife the NHS worker. His uncle the sailor. His sister the cleaner. The tale of a family sat around a table struggling to pay a telephone bill. Every speech, every pitch, every moment of manufactured connection anchored in the same family, rotated on cue. But when a journalist asks a plain, human question, one that tests whether any of that means anything, suddenly it's too personal. You can’t have it both ways. You don't get to trade on your family when it softens your image, then retreat behind abstraction when the question cuts too close. That's not dignity. It's not even discretion. It's the instinct of a man who has spent so long performing authenticity that he's forgotten what it actually requires. Authenticity, when it matters, costs something. And in that moment, when asked plainly, he stepped back from the very ground he’s spent years standing on. Happen, his handlers have not told him his position yet...

Terror threat level raised to severe. The UK borders:

The politics of a country in decline. Not a single word about wealth creation, without which none of this nonsense can be financed. It’s deeply pathetic. If people fall for this left-wing populist drivel we’ve ceased to be a serious country.

My tumble dryer works fine but it is old and mad Milliband is making vented tumble dryers illegal from July. My tumble dryer is in the shed and the new heat pump tumble dryers don’t work in sheds. So I’m going to buy a new vented dryer to protect myself from the state

GREEN PARTY IN MELTDOWN: Veteran Insider Blows the Whistle on Growing RevoltA respected longtime. Green Party member, @EliseDB active since the 1980s, former councillor, former mayor, and former International Coordinator has sent shockwaves through private messages:“Yes. I’m part of a growing group of members trying to reclaim our party.” Reclaim it from whom? From the extremists now running wild. From the hate preachers. From candidates who preach peace but scream “Death to England.” From Jews living in fear, the unchecked surge of hate, and the total collapse of candidate vetting. The Green Party is exploding. Many longtime members are openly declaring that their party is now fighting to remove the radicals who have taken over. Our page is helping them identify some of the unvetted people slipping through the cracks. And the numbers are growing fast every day more veterans are joining the rebellion. The once-proud party that fought for the environment and real peace has been hollowed out and hijacked by radicals who lecture the world on tolerance while tolerating the intolerable.The mask is off. The old guard is in open revolt. This is a desperate battle for the soul of the Green Party.#GreenPartyExposed

I feel like giving @UniofOxford a slow handclap. They've just shown the whole world, how to turn a prestigious, distinguished, esteemed, globally recognised university, into a clown show using only one man wearing plastic tits. 900 years. Down the toilet. Is this an experiment?

Dear UK Banks, Please stop with these savings accounts that pay an eyecatching interest rate for 12 months and then revert to 0.0000000000001% for the remainder of their life. It forces us to go through an annual rigmarole of reapplying for accounts - or else receive derisory interest at a time when inflation is devouring our savings. Just stop it, ok? It's one of the many reasons your customers hate you. Just pay a decent rate for all time. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It’s falling apart for Zack Polanski and the Green Party this week: • Crashed 6% in the polls — a brutal overnight drop that’s wiped out months of gains and left them reeling as voters abandon ship in key battlegrounds. • Councillors arrested over alleged antisemitism — multiple Green councillors now in custody facing serious allegations, piling fresh embarrassment on a party already under scrutiny. • Deputy Leader Mothin Ali urging members to sue his own party — in leaked comments to a ‘Greens for Palestine’ meeting, Ali told suspended candidates to get “serious legal advice” and “start with some class action,” openly putting the party on notice and exposing deep internal chaos. • Reports of a leadership fall-out... insiders say relations at the top have completely broken down, with Polanski’s inner circle fracturing and open briefings against each other leaking to the press. • Called out by the Met Police Chief... the Metropolitan Police Commissioner has publicly slammed the party’s handling of community tensions, warning their approach is making things worse. • Backlash over Jewish ‘perception of unsafety’ comments... Polanski’s remarks dismissing Jewish communities’ very real sense of insecurity as mere “perception” have triggered fury, with Jewish groups and MPs accusing the party of gaslighting. The wheels aren’t just wobbling they’re coming clean off. #TheFallOfTheGreens
