A typical English woman expressing a mainstream and sensible opinion. No migrant hotels next to schools.
"We don't know where they've come from... I sound so right-wing but I'm not, I just find it wrong." @vicderbyshire speaks to Epping residents about the protests outside a local asylum hotel. #Newsnight
One other thing. Russia cut gas to Ukraine in 2005. China blocked rare earths in 2010. Putin annexed Crimea in 2014. China launched Made in China 2025 in 2015. By 2019, it was fairly obvious that Britain enshrining Net Zero in law did not make strategic sense!
Extraordinary from @JamesCleverly. Here he admits the Tories planned for a linear world where nothing goes wrong. No war, no shocks, no need for resilience. These are the same people who thought history had ended. Now they want you to trust them to survive its return.
Abolishing the Sentencing Council could stop the establishment pretending political decisions are actually technical ones, writes @AmarjeetJohal thecritic.co.uk/the-establishm…
The UN has decided that Fiduciary duty must incorporate ESG. One of the reasons is that it is an ‘investment norm.’ They believe that because something is so, it must be so. This contradicts of all investing wisdom. Groupthink is the enemy of growth.
Last night I attended a Lambeth safer neighbourhood meeting. There were two police officers and a Chairwoman on a panel and a room of community 'representatives.' It was obvious that the police have little concern regarding the causes of crime. I was mobbed by the room when I…
We can have control over how we cut the state pension, or we can accept the IMF terms when we need to be bailed out.
Read this and note. It would mean massive cuts to the state pension. The biggest losers in Argentina have been pensioners.
The country which spent decades providing safe haven to the worst IRA terrorists now takes issue with young women who simply want to play basketball and happen to be Israeli/Jewish.
The ESG movement will continue their media smear campaign of BP. They will pretend that this is not what shareholders want and will pretend to speak on their behalf. Shareholders want profit and cheap and abundant energy for the country in which they live. Well done BP.
BP has abandoned its renewable growth targets and will now prioritize increasing oil and gas output by 2030, appointing a new chair to oversee the shift back to fossil fuels. BP is going back to oil and gas. #CostOfNetZero
🫡Congratulations to @Prosperity_Inst, @SuellaBraverman and @dampierguy on an excellent proposal for leaving the ECHR which finally gives proper consideration to Northern Ireland. 🙁The necessity of leaving should be a matter of profound regret – but necessary it is. Alas.
1️⃣ Six problems caused by the ECHR as detailed in the report by @dampierguy and @suellabraverman No. 1. Asylum
"Why do ministers struggle to get anything done? Because policies have to go through a sausage machine of legal duties: the ECHR, the Equality Act, the Environment Act, the Civil Service code and the Attorney General's rules." @AmarjeetJohal on the Sceptic. Full episode👇
This is basically true of every ‘market failure.’ Capitalism isn’t the problem, cronyism and corporatism is.
£85Billion!!! Stolen. It emerges that the British people handed over their water companies to private equity firms who then extracted £85Billion from these utilities. Meanwhile the rivers were polluted, infrastructure left to decay and bills went higher. Disgusting. This…
There are roughly 37.4 million taxpayers in Britain. That means that last month, Rachel Reeves spent £2,700 per taxpayer. That’s your money. Do you think she spent that money better than you would have?
The government spent £100bn last month. £100,000,000,000 Feel like you got your money’s worth?
"While the world fixates on Donald Trump’s populist cocktail of reciprocal tariffs and big, beautiful deficits, @JMilei is delivering a man-made miracle that should gladden the heart of every classical economist and quicken the pulse of all political libertarians." 1/5
