Breaking: a long line of failed national law enforcement agencies previously called Britain's FBI completely unable to take on crime will be replaced with another such agecy! (Look up the org histories for each—it's not a joke) It's time for actual change.

My grandmother used to say about a certain part of the political spectrum that their entire worldview could be boiled down to “if it feels good, do it”. At the time, it seemed too cliche to be true but I see evidence of this all the time. Without rules or traditions or codes of

“Postponing” elections, abrogating jury rights, and banning anonymity online (because VPN will now likely require ID for adults). We are seeing censorship and surveillance at the lowest, fundamental layers of the tech stack.

I would like to propose a new Chatham House Rule whereby Chatham House is not allowed to say anything.

Chatham House The use of 'obliged here' is straightforwardly factually incorrect, as advisory judgements do not impose obligations. Best delete.

In an otherwise good segment on the Today Programme, Nick Robinson repeated the lie that the Government wants to give the Chagos *back* to Mauritius when Mauritius never owned the islands. It's very basic, very sloppy stuff for people who claim to be concerned abt disinformation

🚨NEW: Shabana Mahmood says the £200 limit on shoplifting is to be removed, allowing police to go after all shop thefts [LBC]

It’s very rich for LBC to bleat on about monetising hate while they continue to employ James O’Brien.

We raised the issue in one of our reports last year for Policy Exchange; Stephen Kinnock told Parliament it didn't matter and just trust us bro...

英国の威厳低下を嘆く声多数。スターマー首相の訪中の様子。まるで、里親候補の家に連れてこられたトライアル初日の保護犬みたい。不安そうにキョロキョロし、高齢犬のようにヨボヨボ歩いている。

I think Theresa May gets off remarkably lightly. She was by far the worst Prime Minister of 2010-24 in my book: - Rammed Net Zero through with barely any Parliamentary scrutiny or cost assessment. - Botched Brexit and ceded Northern Ireland's regulatory sovereignty to the EU on

There is something so utterly malevolent about a Government that cannot resource the Navy properly but can waste its time micromanaging the fun out of the lives of its sailors and officers.

Watch how this judge smiles then tries to hide his obvious glee while the victim pleads with him to properly punish the man who tried to rape and kill her.

Is this the image the UK 🇬🇧 would like to spread in the Indo-Pacific? Perhaps this PM doesn't care about maintaining a great Britain. What is more serious is such weak & meek behavior undermines deterrence, emboldening the authoritarians and inviting their adventurism.

Nigel Farage's lobbying to prevent Starmer giving away the Chagos islands, and paying tens of billions for the privilege, is causing "anger inside the Foreign Office, the Ministry of Defence and beyond". The Foreign Office, more than the Home Office, is the most captured

Abolish the disgusting lanyards immediately. Other legislatures don’t do this. (The U.S. Congress has elegant pins, for instance). Their imposition is a bureaucratic insult to the House, most especially on the Lord Speaker. The fight against lanyardism must start at the top!

One of London’s bridges has been closed to traffic for 7 years due to structural faults, and a public body responsible for maintaining bridges has donated nearly a billion over 30 years to charities tackling “inequality and injustice”.

Labour wants to amend the Tories' opposition day motion to rule out sharing any documents about Mandelson that may 'damage international relations'. I don't remember Labour being so concerned about British foreign policy when forcing the release of the Yellowhammer Brexit plans

I literally do not believe these figures or dates. Something is catastrophically wrong with every aspect of this procurement policy.
