The Jackdaw gas field to go ahead.
The correct decision, but how many times were we lied to when we were continually told by government it would take years to bring online?
Years have now changed to the end of this month or next.
@grok can we have the names of labour mps who said it would take years to bring online

Is that the same unemployment rate that was at 4.3% in July 2024?

So just to be clear, you think the British Prime Minister should ignore British drivers and consumers being ripped off. And instead go to COBRA and prepare anti-riot measures because people are rioting in France. That's what a Reform government would be doing.
At last Dan gets it. A Reform government would be dealing with the important things that scare people and leave dealing with parking fines to a delegated person.
I asked in the Lords why the government leaves out the costs of extra grid, backup gas power costs, and payments to windfarms not to produce sometimes, when talking about the cost of renewables. No answer.
April 1974, and British workers at Shakespeare Cliff in Dover are working on the site of the newly agreed Channel Tunnel project. In January 1975, British Prime Minister Harold Wilson would bring the project to an end, due to financial reasons.
This inquiry into Farage and the supposed big bung? All the lefty journo types were saying it was being released last week and Farage was toast. Where is it?
The woke inept police have left the committee in a quandary as they dismissed a firebomb attack as an attempted burglary & ignored CCTV which could have prevented the death of Ann Widdecombe , is my guess.
Imagine the fallout over money for his own protection.

Maybe they're waiting for a quiet news day
Narinder Kaur, Matthew Stadlen, Marina Purkiss, Terry Christian, Richard Bacon, Gary Lineker, James O’Brien, Carole Vordermann, and many, many others.
I want every single one of them to repost a video of the French riots and say, “Yes. I still support multiculturalism.”

None of those people has the slightest clue about who is rioting in France.
They get their new from the BBC, C4, Sky News etc and refuse to consider any alternative viewpoints.
Restore running in Burnley only helps Labour.
We will end up with another Labour government especially with Restore taking some votes away from @reformparty_uk in the red wall.

Don is a fantastic local councillor, a retired police officer and former dog handler. He’s from Burnley, loves the town. How many in Reform were previously in another party? I voted Labour once nearly 30 years ago. Does that make me Labour for life?
"More than 50,000 attempts to cross the Channel have been prevented since July 2024, French operational data shows."
Say that 1 in 3 days (on average) is not safe to cross, 50,000 works out as 100 attempts per 'crossable day' - foiled. Rubbish!
Zelensky is the single biggest obstacle to achieving peace in the Ukraine. Once everyone realizes that, this war will end and people of that region of the world can start rebuilding their lives.

Reform has a women problem.
It stems from the top.
Women, do what I did. Turn your back on a party which just wants to weaponise you and make you a tick box exercise and join the Conservative Party where the sky's the limit.

Warning: Offensive language
Reform UK MP for Runcorn and Helsby Sarah Pochin has said her party ‘excludes you if you’re a woman’ and that Reform has a ‘male issue’.
The comments were made as part of an undercover investigation inside Reform UK’s political operation that has found senior party officials saying they have to “defend the indefensible”, with Nigel Farage told he was “protecting” one Reform candidate from being sacked for allegedly racist views.
ITV Exposure gained unprecedented access to Reform’s Westminster headquarters, sending in an undercover reporter inside the party in January 2026, where she worked as a press officer. She secretly recorded conversations between Reform officials as they dealt with multiple accusations of racism by Reform councillors and candidates.
Sarah Pochin did not respond to our request for a comment.

Thrilled to have viral pneumonia via influenza.
Also woke up with one eye shut so conjunctivitis too.
Tamiflu and Chloramphenicol now in system.
I look like a bedraggled pirate. All limbs present and correct, so far.

EXCLUSIVE: Leaked Home Office documents identify 5Pillars as one of the 'higher-profile Islamist extremist groups' operating on X.
Counter-terrorism unit RICU accused the outlet of downplaying an arson attack on Jewish ambulances and "stoking grievance narratives".
This year, the 5Pillars interviewed Scotland’s First Minister and senior Green Party politicians.
My investigation:

£3 trillion in debt, £120bn fiscal deficit, highest energy costs in world, grid at max capacity, not enough gas for winter, growth in economy less than borrowing %, rapey third worlders walking streets, crime soaring, housing market dead, Iranians almost attacking air bases, Burnham telling porkies by the day...
... and these two muppets are on jolly.
We vote Labour out soon or we collapse as a nation.
