I want a government that protects the 67M citizens who are not billionaires from the 177 citizens who are.

I went through all 72 Directives that HMG opposed but still got passed xitter.cf/mac_puck/status/108736… and the 89 CJEU judgements against HMG xitter.cf/mac_puck/status/109315… TLDR: I discovered that WE were the bad guys in EVERY SINGLE case.
I recently looked at "all them rules" that the EC imposed on the UK against our will. The Brexiters also like to bewail the tyranny of the ECJ, but usually cannot cite a single judgement. So here are all 89 judgements against HMG over the last 30 years (3 per year😱). Enjoy...

But that's just a snapshot; how about cumulative real GDP growth since the referendum? Double-oops! 22nd out of 32. 2/3

But wait; the "Boris wave" flung our borders open to a flood of immigration from Africa and Asia 3 times greater than anything seen before - GDP growth just by population increase. What about per cumulative real GDP growth since 2016, per Capita? Oh dear. 3/3

This you?
The country is going down the pan and our Prime Minister is faffing around tweaking parking tickets. What is the point in Burnham if he refuses to touch the big issues like the ballooning benefits bill?

I note that people who support Russia are the scum of the earth.

In 1979 taxpayers paid £1.24Bn in housing benefit. ( £8.14Bn in 2026 £'s) In 2025 we paid £38.4 Bn. People look at the UK fiscal position and feel hopeless, but I feel incedibly hopeFUL; we just need to methodically reverse every single thing Thatcher ever did.

Electricity sector profit margins: UK 23% - 38% Spain 11% - 13% Germany 9 - 11% France 6 - 9% But, apparently, the reason UK electricity is most expensive is Net Zero.

In 1979-80 the cost of local authority elderly residential care was £63 per week, which was 58% of an average wage. In 2026 it is £1298, or 184% of an average wage. Privatisation of care is basically a letter of marque. Licence for the depraved to prey on the desperate.

A 1979 water and sewerage bill, is £131 in 2026 pounds. Today we pay £639. A privatised monopoly is a licence to rob and rape a country. Basically what Diwani was in 18th Century Bengal, Thatcher created in 20th Century Britain.

Electricity bill is up £5 per month Car fuel £60 Kerosene heating £100 The fossil lobby keeps you focused and talking about the smallest one.

British public opinion moves relentlessly in favour of rejoining the EU. Brexit has failed Britain.

My point is, those who are saying that changing the triple lock to a double lock will not fund a national care service are missing the massive savings - approximately 2/3rds - that the data suggest re-nationalising care can generate.

My point is, everyone who is saying that changing the triple lock to a double lock will not be enough to fund care, is missing the vast potential savings re-nationalisation can bring. Roughly 2/3rds, would be what the data suggest.

US Senate report finds Tether is a "significant financial lifeline" for Iran and a tool for funding terror abroad. reuters.com/technology/tethe… Christopher Harborne owns 12% of Tether. Farage blames small boat illegals for Fairfield, instead of Iran-funded Brits; I wonder why?
