The country is going down the pan and our Prime Minister is faffing around tweaking parking tickets.
What is the point in Burnham if he refuses to touch the big issues like the ballooning benefits bill?
🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham has announced changes to car parking fines
- Drivers will have a 5-minute grace period to decide whether to park and 10 minutes to leave after a parking session ends
- A £20 maximum charge on appeal for minor mistakes, such as entering the wrong number plate or not displaying a permit
- Charges will also be cancelled on appeal for breakdowns, medical emergencies or broken ticket machines
- The £100 cap on charges will remain
- The rules will come into force as soon as possible and operators that break them will lose access to DVLA data

An Iraqi who stood guard at ISIS mass executions crossed the Channel on a small boat.
Served six months. Got spotted at the Co-op by Windsor Castle. Got recalled for breaching his conditions. Deported? Don't be daft. He might be mistreated in Iraq.
Five SAS men sent to hunt ISIS in Syria? Arrested for murder. Homes searched. Questioned, then sent straight back into combat with a life sentence hanging over them. Three years in limbo.
So the jihadi gets human rights. The men who hunt jihadis get handcuffs.
The lawyer who hounded our troops with bogus war crimes claims got struck off, convicted of fraud, and walked out with a suspended sentence. The barrister who worked those cases with him was Attorney General until July.
The Tories built this machine. Labour oiled it. Kemi's found her outrage just in time for the clip.
Reform will scrap the HRA, leave the ECHR, and stand by the men who stand between us and the killers. Not for a news cycle. For good.

Everything over the last two decades has been building towards this. Andy Burnham was inevitable.

So basically, you can accept any rent a landlord asks for and then retrospectively claim you were desperate, and a tribunal will change your rent because some properties that aren't the same size or even in the same building are being advertised at a lower price.
The long march towards Total Judicial Communism continues. We have devolved price setting to a couple of former solicitors scrolling Zoopla. Madness. telegraph.co.uk/money/proper…

Andy Burnham has announced "big changes" to welfare to get one million NEETs back into work – but only once he's "rebuilt the education system". Sounds expensive, says Mary Gilleece. It’s clearly never going to happen. dailysceptic.org/2026/10/19/…

Today’s court reveals that the reasoning for stopping for the parade was the threat of nationalist violence. This fundamentally undermines the whole suggestion this was some peaceful resident’s gathering. It was not. It was a mob.

A cost-of-living crunch is looming this winter, especially fuel bills.
He still hasn’t told us how or when defence spending will reach 3% GDP.
Inflation is rising once more, as are interest rates.
Russian forces are threatening our infrastructure, especially undersea data and energy links.
The Strait of Hormuz remains closed, our Gulf allies are under attack.
And PM Burnham drivels about this!!
It’s like the opening sketch from Saturday Night Live.

A reportedly drunk & possibly insane man attacked a member of parliament in Australia with his car. And so, naturally, a few vile politicians are exploiting the tragedy to demand mass online censorship. Decades of scientific evidence & common sense demolish their lies. THREAD

I’m well aware of that. But he used the words in a perfunctory manner. He threw them away. No force, no emotion, no anger, no dwelling on the issue. Just reading a script, poorly.
By the way when I was a big cheese at The Economist the Paris bureau chief was not allowed to moonlight as the President’s spin doctor. When did that change?

Labour announced changes to ILR in November 2025. These changes were meant to be implemented in April 2026, then August 2026, then it was "in autumn" and now some briefs are saying it will be the first quarter of 2027.
The Boriswave are settling under Labour; we will see massive numbers settle in 2027 and 2028.

FOUR out of every FIVE jobs created in Britain between 2014 and 2025 went to foreign nationals.
Millions of Brits are unemployed and yet the Tories filled hundreds of thousands of British jobs with cheap foreign national labour.
Since 2020:
In London: Brits lost 26,500 payrolled jobs while non-EU foreign nationals gained 465,200.
Scotland: Brits lost 53,000, non-EU foreign nationals gained 130,200.
Midlands: Brits lost 55,100, non-EU foreign nationals gained 375,700.
All because the Tories let over 11 million people come here, despite repeatedly promising to cut immigration.
Many British people’s futures have been ruined as a result.
Reform will end the mass immigration scam for good and put British workers first.

Every single sentence in your post is untrue.
Labour’s 2002 ‘deal’ had very little long-term impact on migrants trying to sneak into the UK by lorry/container/vehicles. It simply moved from Sangette to other routes.
Between 2014-2019 55,000 came in that way — an underestimate since many came in undetected and disappeared into society. Unlike boat people, nearly all of whom are counted.
So it’s an obvious nonsense to say people weren’t being sent back because nobody was arriving. Tens of thousands were arriving.
They switched to small boats when major advances in technology, perimeter defence of lorry/container parks and detection made lorries etc too risky to take.
That’s why, from 2018 onwards, the small boat numbers grew fast.
Nothing to do with EU, Brexit, Dublin rules, fairy dust etc. Why do you peddle such falsehoods?

🚨 IDF ELIMINATES HAMAS CELL COMMANDER, TWO OTHER OPERATIVES IN GAZA
The IDF says it eliminated three Hamas military-wing terrorists in separate strikes over the weekend after they worked to rebuild the group’s military capabilities and advance attacks against Israeli troops and civilians in violation of the ceasefire.
Among those killed:
• Majed Ahmed Mustafa Sabbagh — Hamas cell commander, eliminated in Tuffah.
• Abdullah Mohammed Khamis Jaber — involved in weapons production and efforts to rehabilitate Hamas’ production infrastructure.
• Amer Bashir Mohammed Khourani — member of Hamas’ engineering battalion, eliminated in Jabalia.
The IDF says the strikes were carried out to remove an immediate threat, with precision munitions and aerial surveillance used to reduce civilian harm.
Southern Command forces remain deployed in Gaza under the agreement and will continue operating against identified threats.

🔴 ELIMINATED: 3 Hamas terrorists - a Hamas cell commander and 2 terrorists from Hamas’ military wing.
Recently, the terrorists advanced terror attacks against Israeli civilians & IDF troops and operated to restore Hamas’ capabilities, in systematic violation of the ceasefire. The terrorists were eliminated in order to remove the threat they posed.

Remember about 15 years ago when they filmed this guy and laughed at him for being inarticulate in a working class accent when he was saying that Muslim rape gangs were real and then it turned out later that actually he was 100% right and the police had been covering it up and participating and it was worse than anyone could have possibly imagined and the rape gangs became a massive public scandal?
