There’s a pile of evidence that the wealth tax will hurt growth, jobs and investment. There are many tax reforms that would tax wealth more effectively without these downsides. Please rethink this. taxpolicy.org.uk/2025/07/22/uk-…
This is a disgracefully short sentence for a sexual assault on an extremely vulnerable woman. I have written to appeal the sentence. He must be properly punished and deported. As I have said for years, the UK must treat small boats as a national security emergency.

This would be the final nail in the coffin for many pubs, bars and restaurants. The Prime Minister and Chancellor need to stop pretending that business confidence is high and explain to the rest of the cabinet the consequences of their Jobs Tax and the job-killing red tape…
Let’s not forget that most of what we’re now borrowing is spent on meeting the cost of previous borrowing. The OBR reckons we’ll borrow £143 billion this financial year 2025/26 (it will be more than that). It also estimates we’ll spend £111 billion paying interest on existing…
BREAKING NEWS: More pressure on Chancellor Reeves to raise taxes/repair public finances/‘fix the foundations’ (still a work in progress, contrary to ministerial claims): UK government borrowing rose to almost £21 billion last month, £6.6bn higher than June 2024 and the…
Capitalism, small government, fiscal responsibility …
🚨 Breaking: Extreme poverty in Argentina 🇦🇷 drops another 18% during the past year, to a new low of 7.4% Real wage growth is now outpacing inflation. @JMilei's miracle is unstoppable!
At today’s Liaison Committee @Keir_Starmer was asked where he was going to put illegals once they’re moved from hotels. The Prime Minister told the Committee there was “lots of housing” that could be used. Tell that to the record number of under 35’s living with their parents.
Would be one of the most expensive sales ever in the UK. It’ll be interesting to see if and for how much it finally sells. It has no comparables. It’s not on the market yet so this is very effective way to test of the waters to gauge interest. uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/billionai…
"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…
Some people argued that the rape rates in the UK, Sweden and France in a different stratosphere than in Poland are due to different counting methods. Folks, are robbery rates also counted differently?
Rapes per 100,000 inhabitants 🇵🇱 Poland - 1,48 🇧🇪 Belgium - 34,9 🇩🇰 Denmark - 45,4 🇫🇷 France - 52,5 🇸🇪 Sweden - 90 🇬🇧 UK - 109 What is different in Poland than in all these countries? And please don’t tell me that it’s different counting methods.

A month on from the Commons vote on assisted suicide, it’s clear that quite a few MPs were confused about the bill or influenced by misinformation. Here are 10 examples:
Today, UK wholesale electricity prices are down to levels of late 2018 and early 2019, driven by gas. But our electricity bills are much higher than 2018. Renewables are driving our electricity bills higher.
It’s not only the amount of land, imagine how many resources like concrete and steel are needed for all these wind turbines. How can they be better for climate than nuclear?
You glad we left yet? The UK pre-Brexit covered around 12.5% of the budget. The EU proposed a €2,000 Billion budget for 7 years. So the UK would've been footing around €35 Billion a year - around £30 Billion a year. Around triple what it was when we voted to leave.
Good Morning from #Germany, which has rejected the EU’s proposed €2tn budget. The objection isn’t just about the size – Germany would cover about a quarter of the total – but also about the plan to introduce a corporate substance tax, which Berlin argues would do little to boost…
BREAKING - Council boss at Labour-run Birmingham City Council received £469k, and tripled the number of staff on more than £100k, in the year before the authority went bust (via @Telegraph) telegraph.co.uk/politics/2025/…
Untruth piled upon untruth. The so-called green energy strategy is NOT cutting bills Very few new jobs are being created, more are being destroyed by high energy costs — and the few new jobs are NOT ‘across the country.’ This morning wind accounts for only 15% of electricity…
Our plan to become a green energy superpower is cutting bills and creating jobs right across the country. Reform UK would destroy those jobs and hurt hardworking families in every community.
