Trump: "The funding for New York, and for every place, comes through the White House. And I'm very generous, and I was always very generous with New York. But I wouldn't be generous to a communist that's gonna take the money and throw it out the window."

It’s funny how black people are expected to reach across the aisle to voters like these, while no one ever expects them to reach across the aisle to black people. Amazing who gets to be human, and who doesn’t.

Poor Tommy Robinson. What possible reason could the border police have had for stopping a known criminal who is being investigated by HMRC from taking £13,000 in cash abroad while driving a Bentley that wasn’t his and refusing to answer their questions? It’s an outrage!

Proud to speak in support of a fairer Scotland. 💛

From March 2026, the SNP Government will scrap the cruel two-child cap — supporting 43,000 children in its first year.

The UK Labour Government will allow the Welsh Labour Government to decide where the Welsh share of the so-called 'Shared Prosperity Fund' is spent. In contrast, the Scottish Government is bypassed. Spend in Scotland is dictated by Westminster.
