General UK politics VIII - The Last Tory

Sarah Pochin MP
@SarahForRuncorn
Yet another disgraceful performance from the Prime Minister today at PMQs.
 
Andrew Bridgen
@ABridgen
If Starmer feels the EU is better at making laws for the UK then he should resign and so should his MPs . This is not just betrayal it’s high treason

I know she's not the sharpest tool in the box. And that it says 'Bob the Builder Playset' on said box. But surely someone should have told her that Kemi Badenoch isn't the Prime Minister?
 
Was it £12.5 million you got from dual citizenship holder Christopher Harborne aka Chakrit Sakunkrit (thai name) the crypto currency billionaire who lives in Thailand who previously donated £10 million to the Brexit party & funds Farage's trips abroad?

That British Citizen?


Statement from a Shadow Chancellor

🚨 This is a dark day for Britain.

Reform receives a large, perfectly lawful donation from a British Citizen, and Labour responds by rushing through a new law to prohibit him from making such a donation again.

Rycroft even refers to British citizens as “malign actors” in his report.

This is how fast the machinery of government moves when it wants to protect itself.

When it comes to securing our borders?

Nothing can be done for years at all apparently.

This Starmer regime is authoritarian.

Cancelling elections, choking off legal funding for its main rival, surveilling speech.

Make no mistake, if Reform do not win the next general election, this country is toast.

I like toast. Good traditional British breakfast.
 
A Reform candidate has pulled out of standing in May's Senedd election and will quit the party, saying that the experience had broken his "belief in politics".

Andrew Barry's announcement came as party sources suggested that there was anger over "parachuting" people into seats from outside the area and the number of defections from the Conservatives.

BBC Wales has been told that Reform's position is that all candidates were selected according to the same scoring system.

It is understood that Reform's prospective candidates were contacted by the party on the weekend, with some then deciding to withdraw.

The BBC has been told that the withdrawals had delayed Reform's plans to unveil a list of candidates.

County council leaders are under fire for pulling March's full council meeting from the schedule.

Opposition councillors have criticised Durham County Council for deciding not to hold the meeting, where residents and members can openly question the local authority.

Reform, which runs the council, said it "won't have meetings for the sake of it" and council officers received no requests for questions from the public or opposition before the deadline last week.

A Shadow Chancellor issues a statement on Starmer's political persecution of opponents being a Chinese plot


Zia Yusuf
@ZiaYusufUK
Philip Rycroft, the man chosen by Starmer to persecute his political opponents and choke off perfectly legitimate funding for his opponents, has a disturbing past.

He worked for CK Hutchinson as a Special Advisor, run by Victor Li Tzar-kuoi, a member of the Standing Committee of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC).

Yep, that’s the Chinese Communist Party’s leading political advisory body.

The man Starmer chose to write a report on preventing foreign interference in British politics has literally been making money aiding the Chinese government.

CK Hutchison also co-owns a real estate joint venture with Aviation Industry Corporation of China, one of China’s largest defense companies.

AVIC's development of the J-20 stealth fighter has been repeatedly linked to stolen American technology.

Evidence emerged in 2016 when Su Bin, a Chinese national, pleaded guilty to conspiring with high-ranking Chinese military officials to steal over 630,000 files containing F-22 and F-35 blueprints.

All this while Starmer allows the Chinese to build a mega embassy right over national critical infrastructure.

Rycroft should expect his dealings with China to be thoroughly investigated by a Reform government.

They have trouble getting all eight of their MPs to walk out of PMQs together.

Show of strength by Reform MPs at PMQs turns into a cameo appearance | John Crace

A well-timed jibe by the prime minister at Nigel Farage’s side-hustle seemed to provoke the party leader into staging a mass walkout
www.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com

It’s possible that Honest Bob, Suella Braverman and Andrew Rossindell, who were seated farthest away from Nige, hadn’t heard their leader’s command. In which case they must have been wondering what the hell was going on when the other five walked past them. Or maybe they had their doubts about such a pathetic show of petulance, guaranteed to make them look like half-witted sulky teenagers.

If it had been a test of self-worth, then the not-so Fab Three failed abjectly. There again, Reform is more than ever a personality cult. None of his MPs dare to show any sign of original thought: total obedience is all that is required. Otherwise, the wilderness beckons. So, in a matter of seconds, they all beat a retreat. Honest Bob was the last to leave. Trying to retain what dignity he had left with what he hoped was a contemptuous hand gesture. He just looked childish. A five-year-old’s ego in the body of a sulky overgrown midlife crisis.

Which brings us nicely to Kemi Badenoch.

Suella Braverman
@SuellaBraverman
The government has announced plans to combat foreign interference in our democracy.

But there’s hardly any mention of the elephant in the room: Labour’s China problem.

I raised it today with the Minister.

Yet again: a non answer.
 
'Hidden' Halal!

Catherine Blaiklock
@blaiklockBP
I have evidence of a primary school in Essex. It is 0.6% Muslim. (2 Muslims / 300)

'Hidden' Halal is served to all the children.
The headmaster when asked by a parent said:
"What does it matter: others can eat it.'

Imagine saying that about serving meat to a vegetarian or pork to a Muslim or Jewish child.
 
John Cleese
@JohnCleese
The British cultural heritage is based on Christ's teaching

And Christ's teaching is NOT about acquiring power. Read the Beatitudes !

The Koran's teaching is ALL about acquiring power, killing 'infidels' and imposing Islam on everyone

That why the British tradition is vastly superior, and more respectful of human dignity.
