🚨 Starmer says Brexit made Britain poorer. But the GDP data tells a more awkward story. Since the Brexit vote: UK real GDP: +12.1% Germany real GDP: +6.0% Britain is not booming. Nobody serious should pretend it is. But Europe’s supposed economic engine has grown at barely half the UK’s rate. So why is Starmer’s big answer still more Europe? This wasn’t a reset. It was a relapse: more Brexit blame, more Brussels, more excuses. No wonder voters are walking away from Labour.

🚨 | Margaret Thatcher - ‘The state has no source of money other than the money that people earn themselves. There is no such thing as public money there is only taxpayers money’ 💥 1st female Prime Minister understood public finances, the 1st female Chancellor does not. 💷 Rachel Reeves is robbing the public blind through taxation. 💡 Remember there is no public sector without the tax from the private sector. 🧨 The Labour Party are doing their best to ruin the private sector.

Bridget Phillipson is reportedly looking at free childcare for people on benefits. At what point does support become an entitlement with no limit? 👇 Labour loves the word “free”. Free childcare. Free school meals. Free breakfast clubs. Nothing is free. The taxpayer always pays. Chat with Mike Graham 🇬🇧

🚨 The Government has wheeled out Darren Jones to promote Digital ID. But this guy LIED on Question Time — claiming most small boat arrivals were women & children. ❌ Latest data for 2025: 79% are adult men 82% are under 18-39 If he’ll lie on TV, why trust him on Digital ID?

Are the BBC “promoting the far right” by showing British flags at the Last Night of the Proms 🇬🇧? Or is it simply the far left who are embarrassed by Britain? Oh and singer has union jack dress. The majority and centre are proud of our country? #lastnightoftheproms

🚨 | Lisa Nandy tries to justify Labour’s Digital ID scheme — she couldn’t. Starmer is trying to deflect from his failures as Prime Minister ahead of conference. ❌ Digital ID won’t stop illegal working or the boats He’s simply trying to resurrect a failed Tony Blair idea.

🚨 | Keir Starmer - ‘Welsh Labour is the living proof of what Labour looks like in power. A blueprint for what Labour can do across the United Kingdom 🔸 NHS waiting lists worse than England 🔸 Educational outcomes worse than England 🔸 20mph speed limits - slowing the economy 🚂 Welsh Government took over the running of the railways - it operates Transport for Wales which has the worst customer satisfaction for train operators in the UK. ✈️ Welsh Government took over the running of Cardiff Airport. Despite relatively few flights, it was named among one of the worst for flight delays and the airport is now valued at around £15m - a third of what the Welsh Government paid. 💷 Analysis shows that the Welsh NHS may overspend by £800m by next spring and all health boards have been placed under higher levels of financial scrutiny. 🔐 During the pandemic, the blueprint for Welsh Labour lockdowns included telling shops to close certain aisles so customers visiting would feel safe. 🗳️ The Welsh Government now wants to increase the number of politicians in the Senedd by 60% despite a lack of public support. This is estimated to cost each year more than the free school meals the Government said they could no longer afford to provide to vulnerable children.

🗣️ Starmer at PMQs: Tories left a £22bn black hole 📈 But under his government, borrowing Aug–Mar £55bn higher than forecast 👷 That’s not filling the hole — it’s digging it twice as deep 📉 Starmer misleading: The OBR didn’t validate the £22bn & borrowing worse under him

🚨 | Devastating floods across the county I live in Rhondda Cynon Taf 😒 🌲 Chopping down thousands of hectares of trees, often to make way for wind farms exacerbates the flooding issue. ➡️ Fewer trees - water runs off mountain faster - causing rivers to overflow. 🤡 You won’t hear any politician mentioning this though. 🌊 In addition trees hold soil in place, so without them more erosion, which clogs up waterways. ❤️ Thoughts to all the families affected yet again by the flooding.

📺 | Dale Vince - gave £5 million to the Labour Party in one year & does not care what they did with it. 💷 Makes money from building wind and solar parks. 🗳️ Labour won then announced expansion of wind farms and solar parks. He will more than make the money back from either taxpayer or energy bills? Good interrogation by Mike Graham 🇬🇧.

🚨 Labour’s Transport Secretary doesn’t even own an electric car… 💸 But she wants your taxes to fund chargers and subsidies for those who do. 🚗 Many working families can’t afford an EV — yet they’re expected to pay for others to have one? ❌ Out of touch. Typical Labour.

🌍 BBC: “This summer takes us more closer to a dangerous world — because of climate change.” 🌡️ Temperatures above average - but the average is based on limited historical data. ☀️ For most, it was simply a sunny summer. Dangerous world? Or just sunshine being sold as crisis?

🚨 BBC: Channel migrants say Labour’s “one in, one out” won’t work — they have no ID But why is the BBC pushing the ID card excuse? 🤔 You don’t need documents to cross illegally The boats will keep coming — the UK is more generous than the EU BBC promoting ID cards?

🪪 Macron confirms UK Labour is planning digital ID cards — starting with migrants — to fight illegal work. But if someone’s already: ✅ Entered illegally ✅ Works off the books Will a digital ID really make them follow the rules? 🤨 Or is this step one to ID for all?

🚨 | Police out in force in Wales pulling over drivers doing 30mph. There was a time they would focus on catching hardened criminals or reckless drivers. But despite resources being limited they have time to catch people doing what is perfectly legal in other parts of the UK.
