The chief Constable of Essex Police must resign
🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨 This video proves @EssexPoliceUK transported left-wing protestors to The Bell hotel in Epping. There is no way Chief Constable BJ Harrington can stay in position.
Agreed. #Ukraine should not be going in this direction. It will lose support. Mistake.
It’s no exaggeration that Ukrainian public opinion is in an absolute firestorm after the parliament today approved a law essentially dismantling independent anti-corruption agencies, just days after SBU raided key investigators. The law isn’t enacted until Zelensky signs it — and…
There is. ▶️Emergency holding centres, ex-army bases, tents if need be. ▶️Arrest everyone coming illegally, up in special courts the next morning, sentenced, held until they are expelled, lifetime bans from the UK. ▶️Withdraw from treaties that stop this.
"There simply isn't really a sensible alternative." Former Home Office minister Laura Farris on how the government addresses local dissatisfaction over asylum hotels, after protests in Epping and Diss. #Newsnight
I’m sick of middle class lefty ‘charity’ workers helping illegal immigrants break into Britain. Today I confronted them at a huge migrant camp in Calais. You can see the footage 9-11pm @GBNEWS
I would say incredible, but then again, in this climate, probably not. Good reporting, @sophiealichurch.
EXCL: More than 6,000 asylum seekers have used taxpayer-funded payment cards to gamble since July last year My FOI to government revealed asylum seekers have attempted to and successfully gambled every week since election politicshome.com/news/article/a…
▶️I used to think anyone who questioned if this @UKLabour Gov't, dire as it is, would last the course was unhinged, given their majority. ▶️Yet so bad have they been, and so serious the problems they are now making markedly worse, and I genuinely wonder if they won't fall apart.

It's a good point.
British police will tell pro Israel supporters that it’s too dangerous to stand near pro Palestine protests. However, British police will escort far-left agitators right next to a protest with concerned parents.
Dear @EssexPoliceUK, me and a few mates are planning on going to a demonstration at the weekend. Can you please send a van round to take us there..?

It's clear that under @RachelReevesMP and @Keir_Starmer, this country is currently heading for a severe financial and economic crisis. Thanks to @LiamHalligan for his work explaining how and why. Only question now is when ...
"Inflation rise takes the UK closer to debt-crisis cliff edge" – my latest @Telegraph column Britain is heading for a very serious fiscal crisis – not unlike the 1976 fiasco which saw this country go "cap in hand" to the International Monetary Fund for a bail-out. Government…
The worst thing about this is that the @UKLabour Gov't probably doesn't really care as they stand to gain electorally. Great investigation by @Telegraph. telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…
I still can’t believe that Peter Mandelson is our man in Washington. The *only* Labour peer to vote against his party whip to block efforts to stop the #Uyghur genocide (2021). And…erm…not the best judge of character?
Thank you for reading. Agreed. Bob
@IoWBobSeely challenging reading, Bob. Thanks for this. I lived in Russia 91-96. Seeds were sown from 1990

She's got a point.
Why are young people so angry? Perhaps a better question to ask is why older people are so complacent. Me in the Telegraph:
I agree. I do not understand why we do not arrest, detain, charge and try, and put into camps all who come here illegally.
It’s astonishing that Britain doesn’t detain illegal immigrants while it processes their asylum claims. Australia has been doing this since the Keating Labor government in 1992. One of the reasons (together with boat turnbacks and offshore processing) that the boats stopped.
