Britain does not need another Prime Minister. It needs a completely different political philosophy. The government borrowed £23.3 billion in May and the political class still thinks the answer is more borrowing, more tax and more state control. Just read that again, in one month, the Labour government borrowed... show more

🚨 There was a £23.3 BILLION black hole in government finances in May. Since coming to power in July 2024, the government has now borrowed roughly £268.1 BILLION. Breakdown: 💰 Jul 2024 to Mar 2025: £90.5bn 💰 Apr 2025 to Mar 2026: £129.0bn 💰 Apr 2026 to May 2026: £47.6bn So I’m not quite sure why ministers keep claiming borrowing is “falling”… …because the numbers show the opposite. Labour are lying again.

Starmer is on the brink. Burnham is knocking on the door of No.10. But Britain is not being offered change. It is being offered the same failed Labour poison in a different bottle: higher taxes, more welfare, more regulation and another assault on wealth creation. Britain does not need more socialism. It needs national renewal.

When the 🇵🇰 Shahbaz Government came to power in July 2022, Pakistan’s debt was Rs 49,000 billion. That is, Pakistan had borrowed a total of Rs 49,000 billion in the last 70 to 75 years. 🚨 In the last four years, Pakistan has borrowed an additional Rs 34,000 billion. This means that about 68 percent of the debt taken in the last 75 years was increased in these four years alone! -Miftah Ismail.

💰 The Government has signed off £2.08 billion… …to refurbish the High Commissioner’s residence in Ottawa. Meanwhile, back in Britain: ❌ Highest tax burden in living memory ❌ Over £280bn borrowed in the last two years ❌ Still running a £50bn deficit And we’re spending £2 billion refurbishing an overseas residence. At what point do we start getting our own house in order?

Victoria Derbyshire, "Labour say the tax rises are because of 14 years of broken services by the Conservative government" David Cameron's sister-in-law, Emily Sheffield, "Labour are going to keep blaming the Conservative government for as long as they like.. It's such a boring argument by Labour" Victoria Derbyshire, "Boring?" David Cameron's sister-in-law, Emily Sheffield, "Labour are in power, they made up a £22 billion hole.. It wasn't £22 billion" Nicholas Watt, "We discussed that last time.. It includes rises that the previous Conservative government did not factor in" David Cameron's sister-in-law, Emily Sheffield, "It's not £22 billion.. It's not £22 billion.. These are Labour's choices" Alex Sobel, "First of all, early this year, the Conservative government was blaming the last Labour government in 2010" David Cameron's sister-in-law, Emily Sheffield, "Maybe just answer my question" Alex Sobel, "I'm responding to your point. It's a bit rich now to say that we're literally three months into government and Labour are still blaming the last Conservative government that were in power this year"

Never forget: the Tories crashed the economy and left a £22 billion black hole in the public finances. This Labour government is restoring economic stability, investing in Britain, and putting more money in people’s pockets.

Our national debt is the greatest threat to our national security. The Iran war costs $1-2 billion a day. Farmers need billions to offset tariff losses. Storm damage needs billions more. None of it is paid for. All of it is borrowed. And Washington just keeps spending.

Britain should not fight for Israel. How does it benefit Britain? The political class never ask themselves this question as they send our armed forces to fight in yet another foreign conflict. Britain is not a charity, we must protect, defend and elevate our own interests.

Beyond staggering! Watch Trevor Tombe do the math on Carney deficits and future the economic reality "So just more than 200 billion more borrowed dollars over the coming four years." "And when as staggering as that may sound, when we look ahead and we think about what's the next decade have in store for us..." "...And if we were to balance over a 10 year horizon, so imagine balancing only in 2035, we'd have to cut something on the order of nearly 2/3 of all of the non transfer, non interest, non military spending of the federal government, which I think is not feasible" "Maybe we do need to talk about increasing the age of eligibility for old age security." Trevor Tombe Senator Pamela Wallin

When you know the freedom Britain gave India in 1947 was actually a getaway plan to escape the biggest unpaid loan in history, the entire narrative of generous colonial departure falls apart completely. Britain did not give India independence. Britain gave India independence because it could not afford to keep India. Here is what actually happened. During the Second World War Britain ran a blank cheque on India's resources. Soldiers. Grain. Raw materials. Labour. All of it extracted and deployed for Britain's war effort. In exchange Britain did not pay cash. It deposited IOUs into the Reserve Bank in the form of pound sterling credits called Sterling Balances. By 1945 Britain owed India approximately £1.3 billion. At today's value that is over £350 billion. More than 35 lakh crore rupees. Post-war Britain was completely broke. The war had hollowed out its economy, destroyed its manufacturing base and buried it in debt on multiple fronts simultaneously. There was simply no mechanism through which Britain could repay what it owed India without triggering the collapse of its own economy. So Britain did what any clever debtor does when the invoice is too large to pay. It changed the subject entirely. Independence became the story. Freedom became the narrative. The magnanimous colonial power graciously returning sovereignty to the subcontinent became the history that got written and taught and celebrated. The £1.3 billion invoice quietly disappeared into the complexity of partition, new governments, new priorities and the chaos of building two nations simultaneously. Britain did not grant India freedom out of moral evolution or political enlightenment. Britain executed a masterclass in financial escape. It walked away from the largest unpaid debt in its imperial history and got celebrated for doing it. The question that Indian children have never been taught to ask in school is a simple one. Where did the money go?

Watch the full interview and share please: “I have not borrowed a dime since the day I became Governor. We have increased the minimum wage from ₦7,000 to ₦70,000, cleared 11 years of withheld pensions and gratuities, built roads, renovated schools, and settled outstanding WAEC and NECO fees that had been withheld for years. Apart from the FAAC allocations we receive from the Federal Government, which are our statutory entitlement as a state and after deducting ₦1.5 billion and now ₦1.2 billion monthly for debt servicing on loans incurred by the previous administration in Zamfara, we have not received a single kobo in palliatives. I know of states that have received over ₦500 billion from the Federal Government as palliatives. In my view, I believe this is because I am not a member of the APC,” says Dauda Lawal, Governor of Zamfara State.

ANOTHER BOMBSHELL FROM AN ANGRY NIGERIAN YOUTH O!!! What Tinubu has borrowed in less than 2 years in office is far more than what 3 PDP presidents borrowed in 16 years. What is paining Nigerians is that nothing to show for these incessant loans, they borrowed it for frivolities. How can a govt crying that there is no money awarded a contract of 15trillion to the company linked to the 1st family? You can't be ruling the country as a personal entity and expect us to keep quiet.

For the first time in the history of Nigeria, the 2025 budget was not implemented by the APC government. Yet, they have borrowed about nine times since they removed the fuel subsidy. The Ministry of Health was budgeted ₦218 billion, but they were only given ₦36 billion for the entire year. Since I was growing up, there has never been a year when the budget was not implemented. What we used to do with ₦7,000 now costs ₦30,000. This is the most destructive government in the history of Nigeria. — A cry from an elder statesman.

President William Ruto lied to the poor that he was a hustler. He wore borrowed pain, spoke borrowed struggles, and harvested desperate votes. The moment he won, the mask fell. The hustler vanished. What remained was a tribal king protecting his throne. Today, this is not a national government. It’s a Kalenjin presidency disguised as leadership. Appointments, protection, favors, money they flow in one direction. The rest of Kenya is told to tighten belts, pay more taxes, and shut up.
