The most basic duty of the armed forces is to kill the King's enemies. I will ensure that those who serve their country are never unjustly prosecuted.

Young Bob just got jumped by a group of violent leftists. If you are right wing stop going to debate left wingers unless you are willing or able to physically defend yourself. At least bring security. There’s no point in just allowing leftists to bash you

The revelations about how Henry Nowak’s family were treated are just horrific. The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary initially falsely suggested to them that Henry was the aggressor - rather than his murderer, Vickrum. They also told the family that officers immediately administered first aid to Henry. They only later admitted Henry was first handcuffed and arrested. Perhaps most appallingly, the IOPC told the family in April there were "no concerns identified" about how officers acted that night. I have spoken to medics who say handcuffing Henry behind his back would have worsened the bleeding. This family has been put through hell. My thoughts remain firmly with them.

Only 18% of those who responded to Labour’s consultation on immigration were even British! No wonder they wanted open borders. And Labour agreed with them! What a farce.

For the racist little pricks who apparently need this explained: Kemi Badenoch was born in LONDON. She grew up abroad and returned to Britain at 16. She is now 46, married and a mother of three Disagree with her policies. Challenge her arguments. That’s politics. Treating her skin colour or Nigerian heritage as grounds to question whether she belongs here is racism. Have the backbone to own what you’re doing instead of dressing it up as patriotism. Britishness is not a whites-only club, and you miserable bigots are not its membership committee. And any politician who panders to that poison deserves contempt, whatever party badge they wear. She belongs here. Your racism belongs in the fucking gutter.

🚨 NEW: Tory MP calls Robert Jenrick a "Neanderthal" for backing cuts to £6 Billion spent on foreign aid. • Tory MP Andrew Mitchell has described Jenrick as a “Neanderthal” in the House of Commons over his support for reducing the UK’s foreign aid budget. • The response came following a question from Jenrick to Labour's Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband. "How would he justify to working people and pensioners spending £6 billion on foreign aid whilst freezing the tax-free person allowance and cutting the state pension?" • Miliband backed up the Tory, by replying with "I would say to him, I think the answer came from the person who used to be in his party, the party he used to be in, which is that the money we spend on foreign aid is absolutely about preventing the problems from elsewhere in the world coming here."

There is nothing socialist about a system of free movement that is used by multi-nationals to undermine wages. WATCH my Brexit speech today.

FYI, talking about Brexit yesterday, Angela Rayner claimed that... “The evidence is really clear in terms of 20% down in exports to the EU, 16,000 businesses no longer exporting to the EU, it has been the red tape on the EU deal we got, has been damaging to the economy”. But if this is indeed the evidence, it really is not clear! Let's unpick it... 🧵

I want to tell you about one of the people ITV psychologically damaged, who does not appear in any documentary. He is a Reform member in Portsmouth. He served as a Royal Marine in Afghanistan and Iraq, with distinction. One of ITV's undercover reporters told him they shared the same military background. That was a lie. The Marine, believing him, took him for a drink. They spent hours talking about their 'shared' service. He shared deeply personal stories from the front line. He thought he was talking to a friend who had been through the same things. He has since learned that the man across the table was an actor with a hidden camera, sent by a television company to damage the party he volunteers for. Violated. That's the word he used, and I'm not going to soften it. A man who put his life on the line for this country had his most private memories extracted by deception for a TV programme. ITV should be ashamed.

One SAS soldier "forfeited his lifelong savings to pay for legal support after the Ministry of Defence capped its support to legal aid and a handout of no more than £500". This makes me feel sick.
Meet Sir Gwyn Jenkins who threw the SAS troopers under the bus. @UKLabour then rewarded him with First Sea Lord…

I went on @BBCNewsnight and enraged all the usual radical-left loons stating these simple facts: ~1.85m foreign nationals claim £23 billion in welfare each year in Britain ~ 1.3m foreign nationals claim £11.9billion of Universal Credit Britain must put the British people first **Britains tax burden is the highest it’s been since the War (1948 to be exact)** If you want to lift people up, you have to create wealth. You have to incentivise work. Which means tax them less. Anyone who runs a business knows this. Since then, far-left X has launched a series of ad-hominem attacks. Some even saying these ideas are “extreme far-right” None of them have addressed the substance of my arguments. Instead they are trying to shame me for being in one of the most successful bands of last 20 years, whilst ignoring that I have one of the biggest independent politics podcasts in Britain. And ignoring that I’ve generated 10s of £millions in wealth and taxes for the economy, created 1000s of jobs, and built several successful companies. Likewise they think that I might be anything but immensely proud to be associated with my own dad, one of the most successful businessmen and generous individuals this country has produced since the War, and his association with GB News, officially the most viewed and trusted news channel in the country. He’s a hero. Thanks to Newsnight for having me!

If you're going to attempt to persuade citizens to fight for their nation, you must first ensure that you have established among them a shared national story and the highest levels of social solidarity, trust and cohesion. If you've spent several decades eroding those things, you'll find you're left with a citizenry which feels it has little to fight for. That's basically the difference between Britain in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Never forget that under the Tories, international ‘students’ would bring over their entire extended families for their ‘studies’ and their current leader would lobby for infinity student visas
☀️Good Morning🇬🇧 Sponsored Study dependant visa applications have fallen almost 90%. Home Office figures show 115,900 applications from January to September 2023, compared with 11,800 in the same period of 2026. That is a fall of 104,100.

BREAKING The mother of Henry Nowak’s murderer is set be to released early this December thanks to Labour. That would be 1/3rd the way through her sentence. This is an insult to decency. She disposed of the murder weapon. She should serve her sentence in full and then be deported.
