London ‘not safe’, claims Reform UK’s Nadhim Zahawi after he’s 'forced to cross street from man who hadn't slept' | LBC
Mr Zahawi suggested that if he were Home Secretary, he'd be offering to send the army in.

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country?
Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

Was it me? To be fair, if I saw this tax-dodging careerist shitehawk on the street at 8am, the glare he’d get off me would indeed make him run into traffic.
Nadhim Zahawi thinks London is now unsafe, because the other day a tired-looking man walked past him during the morning rush hour.

This was a stupid piece to publish 20 years ago. It is incredible that a once-sensible national newspaper saw fit to publish this in 2026. We’re being so badly let down by our print media.

Cruel and unusual punishment.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Starmer is copying Green Party policy and then attacking the Greens on a policy stance that doesn’t exist. Classic Starmer.
He sounds like a Tory who’s fabricating another sound bite. When elected Labour promised “change”. Yet it’s just more of the same nonsense.

So basically Starmer is attacking the Greens and then repeating exactly what Zack's been saying?
(The difference being whether an alliance without the US is still called NATO or not).

FT: "Sir Tony Blair’s think-tank has called on the UK government to reverse its ban on new North Sea exploration licences and scrap the windfall tax on the oil and gas sector".
Since his institute is now effectively owned by Trump cheerleader and donor Larry Ellison, this is unsurprising.
