It’s time for Starmer et al to grow a pair and tell the 🍊💩🦍 to f@ck off. Ban twitter, facebook, amazon, Mcdonalds, Starbucks etc etc and see how he likes them apples. Give a bully your lunch money and he comes back for more every time. Enough is enough, time to start pushing back.
US puts £31bn tech ‘prosperity deal’ with Britain on ice.

Trump doesn't honour agreements. It's about dominance.

Demands that UK ends digital services tax on US tech companies and it's food safety rules which bar certain US agricultural products.

Say NO to Trump slavery. Better off joining the EU

Is it any wonder that Right wingers are voting Reform UK Ltd when the alternative is Gulper and Bad Enoch? Maggie must be spinning in her grave.
Lewis Goodall had gulping Tory MP Philp on and absolutely skewered him. The Tories want to ditch a Boris Johnson era EV policy, now whining it is “killing jobs”. Goodal pointed out the obvious flaw: they bloody introduced it. Own goal, again. #ukpolitics

I love how we have a media frenzy for weeks on end when a labour politician accepts concert tickets or a suit or spectacles. However when some slippery bastard accepts £9m from a dodgy geezer in Thailand - crickets 🦗

The UK’s laziest Councillor?

Reform UK’s Councillor Shaun Knowles in Northumberland has been paid £9340.67 since becoming a councillor.

An FOI has shown he’s sent 2, TWO emails since May!

He’s attended just 1 meeting (in Sept) since elected.

Reform UK wasting tax payer money.

Failed Former Tory MPs. Couldn’t have put it better myself. Not often I agree with Muhammad Ziauddin Yusuf. Hope that comment doesn’t come back to bite you in the arse. (Yes I do) #FarageGasThemAll
Zia Yusuf is busy patting Reform’s grassroots on the head, insisting there’s no need to panic about Tory MPs parachuting in — they’ll still get first dibs on the candidate list, honest.
The only thing is, the soothing bedtime story is being told by a former Tory. 🤨👇

The idea that I would ever work with Tories is absurd. If you don't believe me just ask Lee Anderson, Nadine Dorries, Danny Kruger, Andrea Jenkyns, Jonathan Gullis, Sarah Pochin, Jake Berry, Marco Longhi, Peter Bone...

BREAKING: “The idea that leaving the EU was the answer to all our cares and concerns has clearly been proved wrong."

Keir Starmer says that "wild promises were made" about Brexit.

He adds: "The same argument is now being made about the European Convention on Human Rights"

I’m very pleased that Jonathan Gullis has joined Reform – we need more conviction politicians with strongly held principles. In other news, here he is explaining why there is absolutely no chance he would ever defect to Reform.

GMB this morning interviewing the guy Farage racially bullied in school with a corroborating witness. Funnily enough mein fuhrer has gone missing, after weeks of not being able to keep him off the TV. I doubt this story will run as long as Rayner / Reeves though. #FarageGasThemAll
Is Farage still facing scrutiny over his partner’s £885k Frinton home.

Is it aggressive tax avoidance? Has he misled voters? Where’s the transparency? What’s happening?

Just asking questions.

When the likes of Beth Rigby starts a question to the PM with “a cabinet minister told me” he should ask which one. If they don’t name them, the PM’s response should be “next question”. Put up or shut up. It would either stop minister’s briefing against their own party or this line of questioning.

BBC still going on about Budget “lies” 5 days later. More coverage in 5 days over a Labour budget than in 9 years of Brexit lies. Coverage of Russian involvement, Farage’s house, Uncle Nigel’s schoolboy fascism, all dropped fairly sharpish with no answers /resolution. Why do I pay my license fee? 🤷🏻‍♂️
December 1, 2025 at 1:12 PM
What, our media ran by billionaires who don’t want a Labour government because they might have to pay a bit more tax? Can’t see the correlation myself. The best thing Starmer can do is wholesale clean out of BBC and make them educate with facts not vox pop opinions from people informed by Daily Mail
You have to question what is happening in our media.

Yields decreased, with the UK bond market being a top performer compared to other global markets in the last week of November 2025.

I really can’t see why anyone living in the Eastern side of the country would be upset about a mansion tax, its almost never going to affect you. Don’t join in the media hysteria.

Still punching 😛 Happy Anniversary!
Twenty years ago yesterday, I first met the woman who is now my wife, and my best friend. Even better they’re both the same person.

She hasn’t changed a bit (except she’s now married to an old fella).

Happy 20 year meet-aversary Lara

Any unusual betting on Paqueta getting a red card for West Ham today? Looked like he talked himself into that 2nd yellow card despite team mates doing their best to get him to shut up. 🤫 Just asking the question! Liability for WHU.

The irony of Tories calling for resignation over alleged “lying” by Labour chancellor is off the scale. Badenoch decrying two budgets that barely moved the bond market needle whilst Kamikaze Truss budget broke the dial. Badenoch admits to cybercrime but has the temerity to ask someone to resign.

Which is exactly where Farage will be when he’s finished fkng the country up - in his French chateau with his French girlfriend. Who knows he might even buy it himself! Pin this post, you know I’m right. I just hope the country wakes up in time.

Victoria Derbyshire rinsed Baldwin - a washed-up Shadow Business hack from the 14-years-of-chaos Tory circus - after she moaned about Labour’s Budget. Derbyshire hit back: everything they whine about now is what they did while trashing the country. Fourteen years of ruin and they act brand new.

Just seen a video of 30p Lee calling the Chancellor of the exchequer “Rachel from accounts” prior to the budget today. Does he call his boss “ Nigel from the SS” - just asking the question.

“Increasing the minimum wage will put jobs at risk, employers can’t afford the extra wages”. This is all I am hearing from the media. If the businesses can’t afford to pay their staff a living wage then they are running an unsustainable one. RPI in August was 4.6% I thought slavery was abolished?
