    Today's Tories have handled the economy badly. At least we can claim they're acting against type.

    But Labour's ideology guarantees bad stewardship.

    Did he advise Brown… to not only dump all of our gold on the market in one day, but tell everyone when he was going to dump it?

    I just don't trust Labour to run the economy and am beginning to question the wisdom of the Conservatives Net-Zero policy, which having made British goods super expensive will have China pick-up the slack with their coal powered factories.

    'Political Economy', now there's a subject to fill the shelves of one's library with utterly pointless drivel. Oh! The 'professor', an ex advisor of the dreadful so-called 'labour' people thinks they have good ideas. He's entitled to his opinion, but so am I – I would rather listen to a passer by on their way to the chippy, at least they had a purpose in where they were going.

    Labour are genetically incapable of effective economic policy until they identify as Conservative. What we really need is the Conservatives to stop identifying as Labour.

    for academics like him ANY plan that ensures they continue to retain their funding is "sensible"🤣

    If Labour controlled the economy they'd have to write a 'No money left' note after six months. Don't let them near it!

    The economy that Labour want to put in place is not made up of businesses. Labour will crush businesses so that everyone is made to depend on their handouts. Sit down, shut up or you won't get today's beetroot soup.

    Former Labour economic adviser endorses Labour's economic plan. No bias there then.

Andy Burnham reacts to DEVASTATING Stourbridge fires as homes GUTTED: “Never seen anything like it”

Published

on

By



Andy Burnham has visited families in Stourbridge after seeing the scenes of houses devastated by fires.

The Prime Minister outlined his plans to support those affected by the destruction, as he issued a temporary ban on the sale of disposable barbecue.

The ban comes into force today.

Speaking about the fires in Stourbridge, he said: “I’ve never seen anything like it. I mean, I dealt with wildfires in Greater Manchester, but nothing on this scale. I’ve never seen scenes like this in Britain, where you just see a whole house gutted, smouldering.

“And I met one of the families whose house had gone up in that in that way, so you can imagine how distressing that is for for them, and you feel for them and their kids, and not to go elsewhere.

“You know, it’s just unbelievably devastating for people in this in this position. So that’s why I’m here. I just wanted to show that, you know, we’re on the ground.

“We understand how difficult this is for everybody, and we will put in place the support to help people get back to where they should be as soon as possible.”

We now live in GASLIT BRITAIN

Published

on

By



Mark Littlewood says “we now live in gaslit Britain” after it emerged the Home Office published a guide for illegal migrants on how “not to rape women”.

It is just one of the resources available in a collection titled: “Understanding behaviours and expectations in the UK: a guide for asylum seekers”.

Posters and information on rape, the age of consent and child abuse are among the guides to help asylum seekers “understand what is expected when living in the UK”.

The guidance highlights child rape is illegal “even if they look older” or if “it is allowed in another country”.

Speaking to Patrick Christys on GB News, political commentator Mark Littlewood said: “This pamphlet is extraordinary. And the reason I find it so extraordinary and disturbing is if you need that pamphlet, I don’t want you anywhere near my country.”

A Home Office spokesperson told GB News: “We expect everyone who comes to the UK to abide by our laws.

“If they do not, they will face consequences, including the refusal of their asylum claim and removal from the UK.

“Returns of failed asylum seekers have reached their highest level since 2010 under this Government.”
