There's a point here that might have been missed. @ZiaYusufUK would *never* have a drink after QT with the political opposition on the panel. This throwaway comment reveals how it always worked: A panellist can appear on TV and go hammer & tongs for 45 minutes then have a laugh over a beer. Its the cosy consensus, the Uniparty putting on an act for our benefit. Zia is different. He's at war. He understands that Campbell and his associates are an existential threat to our way of life. They've turned our once prosperous society into a deindustrialised, tax crushing welfare obsessed basket case and the productive elements of society are heading for the door. Another decade of these people and its game over. Why would you have a beer with people like that?

For goodness sake will he just come out!

This is THE most satisfying clip I have ever seen. @ZiaYusufUK tears Alastair Campbell to SHREDS on BBCQT. "if there was ANY justice in this country you and your old boss Tony would be on trial" Then calls him a war criminal to his face. GLORIOUS🔥

More footage has emerged showing what happened at the top of the stairs between Caroline Voaden and Nigel Farage. Once again it completely contradicts her account. At no point does the footage show Nigel behind Caroline or trying to push her out of the way. What it does show is Caroline continuously badgering Nigel until he finally moves out of the way and lets her barge past him. Yesterday she said the incident occured before the footage showing her barging past him. Now a second clip has emerged showing what happened at the top of the stairs, she's now saying the incident happened before that clip as well. Ok Caroline. We can clearly see a long line of people queueing in single-file behind you in the new clip, did he push all of those people out of the way as well? Now all the usual left-wing suspects in the media and politics are accusing Nigel of being 'scared' of the Lib Dems. No, he just understands that after trying everything else to discredit him, they are now sinking even lower by trying to brand him as some kind of misogynistic bully and I don't blame him for not wanting to be anywhere near them. We see what they're doing and they're not happy that this time it has backfired massively. Imagine what would be happening now if none of this footage had emerged. Vote Reform.

Where is the outrage from the media and the City? Why is Burnham not being hounded out of office with ‘lettuce’ comparisons?

So, basically, 500 million Europeans expect 300 million Americans to protect them from 120 million Russians who can’t even defeat 40 million Ukrainians while those 500 million Europeans don’t even realize they are being conquered by 2 billion Muslims who claim they are being persecuted by 8 million Israelis. Is that about right? 1

I'm sticking to the prediction I made last year: GENERAL ELECTION — THURSDAY 6 MAY 2027. And I'm going further. I predict that this election will not be called voluntarily, but will be forced upon the Government by a financial and political crisis. Here's how I believe events will unfold. Britain's borrowing costs will continue to rise, economic growth will falter and the Government will find itself increasingly unable to finance its spending commitments without further damaging market confidence. By March or April 2027, I predict the Chancellor will be forced to deliver an emergency Budget containing spending cuts on a scale Labour has so far been unwilling to contemplate. Welfare expenditure will face substantial reductions. The Civil Service and wider public sector will face major restructuring, with thousands of jobs threatened. Public services will come under further pressure. The political consequences will be explosive. Trade unions will mobilise, demonstrations will spread and I predict that some protests will descend into serious civil disorder. Labour MPs, faced with implementing policies fundamentally opposed to their own political convictions, will rebel. The Government will find itself trapped between two irreconcilable pressures: financial markets demanding fiscal credibility and its own supporters demanding protection from austerity. Eventually, the Government's parliamentary authority will become unsustainable. Whether through a confidence crisis, internal rebellion or the Prime Minister's own calculation that the situation is beyond recovery, a general election will become unavoidable. My predicted polling day remains Thursday 6 May 2027, coinciding with the scheduled local elections. This isn't a prediction I'm making with the benefit of hindsight. I made it last year, and I'm putting the detail on record now. I may be wrong about the sequence of events, the severity of the crisis or even the date itself. But I believe Britain's economic and political pressures are converging towards a breaking point. Let's revisit this prediction on 7 May 2027.

Socialist governments don't like people working for themselves. The self-employed are harder to control than those who work for big corporations and in the public sector. Hence, the attacks on family farms, small business owners, and sole traders.

A great rant from a friend: “I don't know who's running the British newspapers at the moment, but I reckon somebody's accidentally given the editorial jobs to a bunch of fucking doomsday preppers. Have you seen the absolute state of the news lately? World War Three. Nuclear Armageddon. Russian cyberattacks. Chinese hackers. Emergency survival kits. How to prepare for the end of civilisation. Every bloody newspaper seems to be running the same story. You'd think Vladimir Putin had been spotted at Dover services with a tank and a packed lunch. And apparently, the most important thing we can do to prepare for all this is go shopping. Seriously. We're being advised to stockpile food, water, torches, batteries and enough toilet roll to survive the collapse of Western civilisation. Do they genuinely believe we're all going to read these articles, leap off the sofa and charge down to Asda like there's a fucking trolley dash on? I reckon somebody's looked at the Christmas retail figures and thought, "How can we get these bastards to spend another two hundred quid?" "Tell them the Russians are coming." "Brilliant. We'll shift those seventeen pallets of corned beef we've had sitting in the warehouse since Easter." And what exactly am I supposed to do with all these emergency supplies if there's a nuclear attack? Imagine it. You're sitting in your living room, minding your own business, when suddenly there's an enormous flash outside. The windows explode. The roof comes off. There's a nuclear shockwave tearing through the city, flattening everything in its path. And there you are, crawling across the kitchen floor, desperately trying to get the fucking tin opener out of the drawer. "QUICK! SOMEBODY GET THE BEANS!" What fucking difference are beans going to make? You're about to be vaporised at several thousand degrees. I don't think the nutritional benefits of baked beans are going to be particularly relevant. But the politicians are the funniest part of all this. Angela Rayner was asked what she'd be stockpiling. Sauvignon Blanc and mascara. Sauvignon Blanc and fucking mascara! I love that. The world's coming to an end, millions could die, civilisation might collapse, but Angela's making sure she's got a decent bottle of white and her eyelashes done. Then Andy Burnham comes along telling people not to stockpile alcohol because they need to keep a clear head. Well, thank Christ we've got that sorted. One politician's preparing for the apocalypse like she's going to an all-inclusive resort in Tenerife, and another's telling everybody to drink responsibly. And apparently Andy's emergency supplies include Twiglets. Fucking Twiglets. I mean, at what point did the national security discussion turn into everybody comparing what they've brought to a children's birthday party? We're supposedly facing the possibility of World War Three, and our political leaders are having a conversation that wouldn't sound out of place in the middle aisle of Aldi. And then there's the cyberattack warnings. Apparently, Russia or China could launch a massive cyberattack and bring down our communications, electricity supplies and essential services. Right. And what am I supposed to do about that? Unplug the kettle? Put the laptop in a biscuit tin? I can just imagine some highly trained Russian cyberwarfare specialist sitting in Moscow, surrounded by millions of pounds' worth of sophisticated computer equipment. "Comrade, we have penetrated the British national infrastructure." "Excellent. Shut down their electricity." "We cannot, sir." "Why not?" "Some bastard in Ellesmere Port has wrapped his Virgin Media router in fucking Bacofoil." It's a good job Churchill isn't around to witness this. "We shall fight them on the beaches. We shall fight in the fields and in the streets. We shall never surrender." "Unless we've run out of Pot Noodles, in which case we're absolutely fucked." What a fucking pantomime.”

Hidden away on page 111 of the Budget - 'The government is providing £150 million capital investment in 2027-28 to fund additional large sites to accommodate asylum seekers' A treasonous decision. Every penny of that should be directed towards a programme of mass deportations.

Charging people tax on money that they might earn Was always abusive and stupid. Labour have just ramped it up - it will destroy businesses.

House prices stall as record numbers of houses come on the market, as landlords sell up as its no longer worth it. Healey’s answer to the growing lack of rental properties. Put up the tax on landlords profits……🤪😜🤡

The hidden tax measure in the Budget is huge for people paying tax under self-assessment - sole traders, partners, landlords, retired investors. For 6th April 2028-29, you currently pay 50% of your income tax late in the tax year in question (in January 2029), 50% just after the year end (in July 2029) with any make-up payment in January 2030. Under the new proposals you will pay your tax perhaps monthly or quarterly (TBC) from April 2029 onwards. A rough analysis suggests the impact is to draw about 50% of your tax bill forward, a huge cashflow boost to HMRC and a significant funding issue for the self-employed. The Treasury recognises this, and expects to raise £1.3bn of additional tax in 29/30 as a result of this change. The cashflow impact of the accelerated charge will send some businesses to the wall.

Nothing highlights the fiscal failure of this government more starkly than the plight of Poundland. The chain's 600 stores and 12,000 workers sit on the verge of collapse, not because its customers have walked away - Poundland's sales grew by 6.7% in September - but because of this government's unaffordable tax rises, which makes it impossible to run a business that works on slim profit margins to keep its prices down for its customers. How ironic that a government preaching about helping the least well-off is forcing a company out of business that does just that.

Wanted to share this from a very talented writer called Mick Flaherty so funny. THANK YOU, CHANCELLOR. THANK YOU SO MUCH. 🇬🇧❤️ I’ve been reading today’s Budget and I’m considering cancelling my direct debits. Financial independence is finally within reach. 🥒 Cheaper gherkins, baked beans and chocolate. Potential savings of £21 a year - that’s 40p a week. I’ve already rewritten my will. My son gets the house, but the gherkin fortune is going into a trust fund. I’m not having the little bastard blow my life’s savings on cocaine and scratchcards. 🍬 Import tariffs scrapped on boiled sweets and toffees. Thank Christ. I’ve seen pensioners outside Aldi exchanging sexual favours for a bag of Werther’s Originals. 🍊 Cheaper marmalade. Excellent, ‘cos I’ve been spreading Vaseline on my toast since March. Paddington Bear’s probably knocking one out behind King’s Cross. 🧄 Cheaper garlic. Fantastic!! I’ve been buying it one clove at a time from a bloke behind Aldi. Last week he offered me three bulbs and a handjob for £20. 💷 Income Tax thresholds frozen until 2031. Absolutely beautiful. Earn a bit more, get dragged into paying more tax, then watch the Chancellor congratulate himself for helping working people. It’s the financial equivalent of being mugged, having your trousers stolen and being handed a 40p voucher for gherkins as compensation. 🍫 Cheaper chocolate-covered wafers. I’ve already ordered a reinforced safe, appointed three trustees and instructed my accountant to establish an offshore wafer portfolio in the Cayman Islands. Apparently, HMRC wants to know why I’ve declared a KitKat as a dependent. 🚌 Bus fares capped at £2. If my business ever collapses, I can now afford to travel to the Jobcentre and explain that I went bankrupt despite unprecedented savings on fucking marmalade. 💡 Gas standing charges being scrapped. Lovely news, until you find out the cost is being transferred to the price of the gas itself. That’s the financial equivalent of a burglar returning your television and charging you £45 to watch it. Anyhoo… the government calls some of these its FIVE EVERYDAY FIXES. I’ve calculated that if I save 40p every week, I could afford a second-hand Ford Fiesta in approximately 400 years…. Assuming nobody’s eaten the fucking gherkins. Thank you, Chancellor. You’ve saved the country. I’ll name my first jar of marmalade after you. 🇬🇧

"Who is bankrolling Nigel Farage's party?" asks Bridget Phillipson. "Labour will protect our democracy from foreign influence." Right. Same question back. Who is bankrolling Labour, and the machine around it? Gary Lubner. South African. Former Autoglass chief. Millions. Lord Alli. Buys the clothes, lends the flat. George Soros. Money into Best for Britain and Fair Vote, routed through a London outpost, which is how a foreign fortune gets round a ban on foreign donations. Pierre Omidyar. French-Iranian, eBay founder, funding the campaign groups. Bill Gates. In for the photo call. Swedish philanthropists. Bloomberg. And Verbatim, which made the Channel 4 sting she is riding, is itself funded from abroad. So the watchdog on foreign money is on foreign money. And those are off the top of my head. No research. Give me an afternoon and the list fills a page. So the party promising to protect democracy from foreign influence is up to its neck in it, legally, through the same door, and has proposed no cap that would inconvenience a single person in the room. They held a drinks party for them in Downing Street. The question is not who is bankrolling Farage. It is why Labour thinks the answer changes depending on whose name is on the cheque. "Protect our democracy from foreign influence." They would not know where to start.

Reform will raise the VAT threshold to £150,000 a year and scrap tax on overtime. Small businesses and grafters are the backbone of our economy. Labour are failing them. We will back them.

RT @SteveBakerFRSA: 🙄Fancy that.

Burnham. Wasn’t even an MP five months ago. Twenty five thousand votes to become PM from pro Brexit Makerfield. ‼️📌 And now he’s renegotiating Brexit. 👉🏻Zero mandate. His handlers must have him by the short and curly’s. This country will pay a very high price for Burnham’s ego. Unfortunately ambition in politics often outruns competence, skill & talent. 👇🏻

What changed, Andy?
