More borrowing. More taxes. More welfare over work. More handouts for those who don’t contribute at the expense of British workers who do. Benefits Burnham just kicked the difficult stuff into the long grass hoping you’ll be gaslit by cheap bus fares. They think you’re stupid.

.@PaulBrandITV and his usual “gotcha journalism” on the air against Reform this morning. Clueless as to why @GMB want him anywhere near their morning programme… 🤡

What sort of country gives loads of its people's money to other countries, then pleads poverty to its people and taxes them into oblivion? This one 🇬🇧

10 billion for them, 100 quid for us…

The minimum wage will have increased by over 50% since 2020. There is almost zero incentive now for young people to go to university and attempt to get a more specialised/corporate job in Britain. The pay simply doesn’t justify it. They’re better off working for minimum wage.
🚨 NEW: John Healey will increase the minimum wage for over 21s from £12.71 to around £13.20

The clowns are running the show from this point 🤡
It's time to raise taxes on harmful gambling machines. Today, 90 Labour MPs have written to the Chancellor, calling for an increase in Machine Games Duty for harmful high-stakes gambling machines.

Countless examples of the right-wing split, in very winnable council seats. Both the right-wing public and parties seem willing to doom the country rather than hold their nose.

Why is Andy Burnham rushing to scrap photo ID checks for voting? Disgraceful.

Translation; we gave the election to the greens.
Good news to finish the week. Restore Britain has just achieved our best election result ever outside of Norfolk - 10.8% in Amber Valley with the superb Edward Oakenfull. A team effort - a big thanks to those who contributed and to the residents who backed us. Progress.

I think ‘hitting the nail on head’ is the phrase here…
The Holborn and St Pancras by-election is basically just a competition to see which left wing party can hoover up as many ethnic minority votes as possible by promising them more benefits and saying they care the most about Gaza, which is 2,200 miles away.

This guy takes us for fools. He fails to mention 46% of the price at pump is tax.
I know people are worried about fuel prices. And I get it. You get to the pump, watch the numbers climb, and wonder why it's costing so much more than it used to.   The reality is that global events are pushing up costs, and families here at home are feeling the impact.   But I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help.   That's why from today, you'll be able to see petrol and diesel prices on Google Maps, compare nearby stations and find the cheapest option before you fill up.   It's a small change, but if there's a practical way to help people keep more money in their pocket, I'll do it.

With @KemiBadenoch it’s most likely a case of the right leader for the wrong times… #CPC26

Hamas on the payroll at Reuters as well it seems.

Why can't you see a doctor quickly? Why endless waitlists for housing? Why are class sizes growing? Clue... it's not funding. "France’s expenditure on upper secondary education is 28% higher than the OECD average" - source: The Guardian of all places. France is not alone:

This was Burnham’s “promise” not to reopen Brexit on 18 May 2026. Why? Because he had to win the Makerfield by-election, where two-thirds of his constituents voted to leave. Utterly shameless and wrong. BBC report here: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx21…

Replacing triple lock with a system that ensures state pension rises with earnings over time, but never rises by less than inflation, makes a lot of sense. Good. The idea this will pay for free social care any time soon, though, is for the birds. That will mean higher taxes.

The cock of the North is pissing into the face of his voters. Makerfield was fooled.
🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham has refused to rule out a manifesto pledge for the UK to rejoin the EU, Customs Union or Single Market at the next general election It comes after he said "Brexit has done more harm than good" in his conference speech
