Danny Tommo has been charged with criminal damage and will appear in court today - the speed of this process is absolutely astonishing. We're told it's in the 'public interest' to pursue criminal proceedings. All individuals are entitled to the same treatment before the law, regardless of what the establishment may think of said individual. The pace of incident to arrest to charge to court for Danny Tommo is rapid, to say the least. I will be watching very closely.

So you can help families with the cost of living, what about the 13.2 million old age pensions that are struggling with the cost of living as well? Once again you and your extreamly unpopular government have show your true colours.

Speaker Lindsay Hoyle told PM Boris Johnson off for bringing up Labour’s promises from the 2019 General Election rather than answer a question put forward by Keir Starmer amid lively exchange, now he’s allowing PM Keir Starmer to do exactly the same thing? youtube.com/watch?v=Kvb4RNYT…

There is a real contradiction in supporting greener steel production if it is to go into the third runway at Heathrow, which will significantly increase emissions. We cannot tackle the climate crisis while locking in higher carbon outputs. #Climate #Heathrow

So now there’s proof Peter Mandelson emailed Epstein with an early heads up of: 1) Gordon Brown’s resignation 2) the €500 billion bailout to save the Euro in 2010. Both before the public knew. This is open and shut stuff. Mandelson is going to jail.

Since Reform UK won in May, Kent County Council has reduced its debt by £16 million. This is a saving of £2,000 per day in interest payments alone.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Farage claims Reform UK cut Kent County Council debt by £16M since May. But official budget documents show this drop was pre-planned in Feb 2025 via scheduled loan repayments and treasury strategy—before Reform took office. It’s not due to new policy. kent.gov.uk/__data/assets/…

Russ served as a police officer for over 30 years. He says today he would fulfil his arrest quota by simply standing outside his local supermarket.

I would advise anybody interested in Ukraine / Russia to listen to Sir Alex Young.
Excellent summary by former head of MI6, Sir Alex Younger, of this new era in geopolitics…adapt or die

#WASPI @EmilyThornberry now repeating @KeirStarmer's lies that '90% of women knew' on @BBCAnyQuestions. The @PHSOmbudsman's report says 60% #1950s women DID NOT KNOW!!! Please share so that people are aware of the lies being spread. bit.ly/4gHH0B9

Met Lord Deben yesterday at an event. He was very clear that we have no chance of reaching our net-zero legal obligations if airports continue to expand; need to stop now. Very interested in our campaign and asked to continue the conversation after the election.

#Farnborough and #Aldershot are looking at a future with three major asylum housing projects: Pinehurst Hill Side, Potters Hotel, the Brewer's Fayre redevelopment. If I am elected as your MP we will be honest with the public and we will put local people first #ReformUK

Disappointing but not unexpected. London City Airport will appeal the planning decision that stops them stealing away peaceful enjoyment of Saturdays from thousands of overflown Londoners. london-post.co.uk/london-cit…

1. Reminder of what ‘net zero’ really means. This graphic from UK Govt FIRES project. Key points: all airports except Heathrow, Belfast & Glasgow to close by 2030. NO FLYING at all by 2050. No new petrol/diesel cars by 2030; by 2050 road use restricted to 60% of today’s level.

This is why we’re taking the UK govt to court. We won’t swallow their greenwash and we won’t accept their reckless ‘green aviation strategy’ that encourages more flights and bigger airports. Please support and share: tinyurl.com/2p8btr5c
