I was on a live panel last night and a Pakistani Muslim said I was a liar and a racist for mentioning the 250,000 white British girls raped predominantly by Muslim men. Even when I played him this clip he still denied it and said I was spreading misinformation.

Due to the Government’s insane pursuit of net zero, destruction of coal-fired power stations .., yesterday, our country blew 50 million quid just to balance the grid.
Imagine what that money could have bought.
The British people have been cruelly betrayed.
Yesterday, @neso_energy spent a record *£50m* in grid balancing costs….to keep the lights on.
In one day. A warm, sunny day.
This is unsustainable. What is going on at NESO? Why are their models so wrong?

Andy Burnham must get a grip of the real challenges facing our rural communities.
But stacking a new fertiliser tax on top of the SFI shambles, giving away our food laws to the EU and hammering hard-working families with vindictive death taxes isn’t a strategy, it’s pushing British farming to the brink.

Some of Labour's biggest names were conspicuously absent from today's Commons vote on plans to house 1,200 male asylum seekers near the tiny village of Piddington.
But one absence stands out above all others.
Shabana Mahmood.
The Home Secretary responsible for this entire mess failed to record a vote.
Other notable Labour MPs who failed to vote include:
Rachel Reeves.
Yvette Cooper.
Wes Streeting.
David Lammy.
Ed Miliband.
John Healey.
Jonathan Reynolds.
Peter Kyle.
Lucy Powell.
Louise Haigh.
These are some of the most powerful politicians in Britain, yet not one put their name to a recorded vote for or against this controversial proposal.
Meanwhile, women from Piddington travelled to Westminster to make their fears and concerns heard.
They deserved answers. They deserved accountability.
Instead, some of Labour's most senior figures were nowhere to be seen on the voting record.
Where were they? Why didn't they vote?
And most importantly, why did the Home Secretary herself fail to record a vote on a motion concerning her own department's plans?
If there are legitimate explanations, let's hear them.
You don't get to exercise power over people's communities and then escape scrutiny when it's time to be held accountable.
I find it absolutely disgusting that prominent women in the Labour Party, who have spent years talking about women's safety, have voted against scrapping plans to house around 1,200 male illegal migrants next to the tiny village of Piddington.
These women include:
Jess Phillips.
Liz Kendall.
Lisa Nandy.
Bridget Phillipson.
Angela Rayner.
Nadia Whittome.
All six have spoken publicly about the importance of women's safety. Yet today, despite hearing the concerns of women in Piddington who say they feel unsafe, every single one voted against the motion to scrap the plans.
Where is all that concern for women's safety now?
These women aren't asking for special treatment. They're asking to feel safe in their own homes, in their own community.
Labour politicians are perfectly happy to lecture the country about protecting women, but when women raise concerns about a decision their own Government is making, those concerns appear to count for very little.
Every single one of these MPs has let the women of Piddington down today.
Women's safety should never be a convenient political slogan. It should matter just as much when listening to women is politically uncomfortable.

She goes from strength to strength. And she has the courage of her convictions.
What a performance from Kemi Badenoch, absolutely destroys Andy Burnham and Labour’s never ending tax rises.
“I asked him about the budget. He said he was meeting President Zelensky. President Zelensky is not writing the budget, he is.”
“Labour’s last two budgets have been a disaster.”
Labour’s tax rises are killing businesses, damaging the economy, and making life more expensive for everyone. #PMQs

Replying to @BijanOmrani
@BijanOmrani and I are bringing a legal challenge to Project Spire, arguing that it is not part of the charitable purposes of the Church Commissioners to spend money on slavery reparations.
Dubious legality. Dubious morality. Dubious history.

Independent Office for Police Complaints has found that the @metpoliceuk handling of a complaint by the great Graham Linehan @Glinner was “not reasonable and proportionate”.
The police’s obsession with “hate crime” is a stain on our national life.

British farming is on the brink of total collapse, and I am utterly fed up of the champions league bullshitting we get from politicians and civil servants.
I outlined to the head of DEFRA exactly why SO many farmers are SO furious with how we are being treated.

Does this Government have no shame?
The whole process of drafting and implementing the official definition of “anti-Muslim hostility” stinks.
First, Angela Rayner appointed five people to the Working Group tasked with drafting the definition. All had previously expressed support for the need for a definition, and all had troubling links to Islamist organisations.
Second, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government said it had deleted all responses to the Working Group’s consultation. That appeared to contradict the Government’s own data policy and has only fuelled speculation that Islamist extremists may have had an opportunity to influence the process.
Third, the Ministry has now admitted that it did not delete the responses after all: they still exist on the department’s data system.
What on earth is going on? It is time for Angela Rayner to come clean with the British public.

Not one female Labour backbencher turned up to Parliament for the debate about dumping 1,200 illegal male migrants in an army camp in Piddington.
Labour have so far, refused to meet a single woman from Piddington.
Labour only care about women when it’s convenient for them.

This #bbcqt audience member (how did he get in?) absolutely nails it on Brexit.
“The Remainers never accepted the result.”
“The Brexit we voted for wasn’t delivered and left us in a half way house.”
“The EU is crumbling and our future doesn’t lie within it.”
A fine summary.

Three weeks to go until The Long Road Tour and, with tickets flying out, we thought it was about time we learnt a bunch of new songs!
Here’s a peek at The Winter Yards Band in rehearsal. Nothing like leaving things until last minute!
