    chaos and fibs along with no concern to local public services...........................

    Lincolnshire Police faces a severe financial crisis after Labour "broke their promise" over funding for an RAF base which has turned into an asylum seeker centre.
    The force must now scavenge for £14million in savings for the 2025/26 financial year while receiving just £136,000 of a promised £4million for policing RAF Scampton.
    Police and Crime Commissioner Marc Jones described the situation as "dire straits" - far beyond the usual difficult circumstances.
    The RAF Scampton funding shortfall emerged in a Home Office letter received on Friday, the same day the force held crucial meetings about its financial predicament.

    The asylum seeker centre plans for RAF Scampton were scrapped by the new Labour Government in September last year.
    Now, the force continues to face difficult staffing decisions, with around 60 officers typically leaving each year through retirement or career changes.
    As officers cannot be made redundant, the force may implement a three-year recruitment freeze to achieve the required reductions through natural attrition.
    This freeze would work alongside cuts to civilian staff positions to meet the financial targets.

    Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner has said there are "no excuses" to not build the 1.5 million new homes Labour promised in its election manifesto.
    The government has said it will meet the house-building target in England by 2029, before the next general election.
    BBC analysis shows the number of new homes in England continued to fall during the first six months Labour was in power.

    the bigger picture of course there is one!

    with projects still seeking finalized Planning permission some 100,000 houses still being built or given final Labour can jump on this band wagon! however in the first 6 month's the finished articles were all tory ones so already AR is some 300,000 behind schedule... but they will spin it... we did all that!!!!!!

    Boss of M&S says this Government are raiding retailers just like a Piggy Bank

    Writing in the Sunday Times, Stuart Machin said retailers were facing a series of headwinds, including the increase in National Insurance Contributions (NICs) paid by firms and higher packaging levies.

    A Treasury spokesperson said measures introduced in last year's Budget aimed to deliver stability to businesses and create the conditions for growth.

    Promote growth ?? Deliver stability ??

    It’s having the exact opposite effect you total morons, but what did you expect ?

    This isn’t the way to promote growth, a 5 year old could tell you that !
    Hammer the private sector (with yet more taxes) who could probably give you growth, but now can’t while the bloated and often useless public sector get above inflation pay rises and final pensions
    Instead the private sector will shrink, firms are firing not hiring and it’s all going to have a negative effect on businesses

    Good to see that despite the hype that Starmer had eradicated anti Semitism in the Labour Party it’s still going strong with Gwynne and his group !

    how does 2 tier granny Harmer ..........SHIELD HIS KIDS FROM HAT THEY MUST GO THROUGH AT SCHOOL? ... ... "the lies, the deceit, the massive loss of popularity, losing the plot and having songs written about him and his in effectiveness? " they are being raised after the Jewish faith. BANNED from eating meat till they were 10 then told to make up their own minds if they should eat meat.

    In an interview during the 2024 general election campaign, Starmer said that his biggest fear about becoming prime minister was how it may impact on his children, due to their "difficult ages" and how it would be easier if they were younger or older. During the 2024 general election campaign Starmer said in an interview that he would try to avoid working after 6 p.m. on Fridays in order to observe Shabbat dinners and spend time with his family. Harmer is an atheist, and has chosen to take a "solemn affirmation" (rather than an oath) of allegiance to the monarch, and not eating red? meat you can maybe see his non attachment to farmers.

    People smuggling gangs "have been allowed to take hold", Home Secretary Yvette Cooper told the Commons during a debate on border security.
    She accused the last Conservative government of failing to strengthen border enforcement as fast as European countries and focussing on "failed gimmicks".
    MPs are debating Labour's Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill, which unpicks the Tory Rwanda plan and gives greater powers to police and border enforcement to crack down on smuggling gangs.
    Conservative shadow home secretary Chris Philp described the new plans as a "border surrender Bill" and claimed it creates a path to citizenship for illegal migrants
    . .... WELL WELL WELL ..............

    HARD TO BELIEVE IT REALLY ... YC blames the tory .gov for the increase in boat crossings! WHAT part of "there has been a massively big increase in the number of illegals crossing since ...

    a) cancelled the deterrent Rwanda
    b) you YC stated they would fast track x number 000's to get the que waiting to be processed down
    c) not actually done anything other than collect them from half way and deliver here to cushy hotels and a gift package worth £900 for their first week...........
    d) in 7 month's you have welcomed almost 39,000 to our shores mostly men who are between 18 -30 years of age circa 28,000! total cost for these per annum is around £2,000,000,000

    PS less than 100 in the house... out of 650

    Two Labour MPs have delivered a savage jab at Nigel Farage's Reform UK - suggesting they had "too many jobs" to be in the Commons for a crunch immigration debate.
    Kenneth Stevenson accused Reform of being focussed on "pitting working people against one another" and leaving many who have lived in the UK for decades "frightened". As he delivered his speech, Dover MP Mike Tapp stood up to point out that no Reform MPs were in the Commons at that point in the debate on the Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill.
    Pointing to their absense, Mr Tapp asked: "Does my honourable friend (Mr Stevenson) agree that perhaps the reason Reform aren't here tonight is because they've got so many other jobs to attend to?"

    a real pointer to what Labour is about! have a jibe at a party with what 5 mps's With camera shots of the debate one might ask where is the missing 356 labour ones SNP HAS 2? libdems have 6?

    Labour and the Tories both realise that there is a genuine momentum behind Reform, but that’s because the public are sick and tired of the 2 mainstream parties who have left this country in the state we see today
    Only Reform offer any hope of turning things around and showing common sense over many policies that have failed at the expense of British citizens

    Doesn’t it mean he’s now an independent MP?

    It’s also just 8 months into a 5 year stint, you may be right, but often people protest vote at these times, but revert back when it really matters, ie a general election

    I believe his membership of the Labour Party has been cancelled but good luck to him standing as an independent with views like the ones he obviously holds

    People won't forget the ruinous and suicidal first 6 months of this Government, even in 4.5 years time. They are already toast in my humble opinion and too much self inflicted damage has already been done.
    They are everything that they said they weren't, and more

    there is a local party rule that they can in certain circumstances force him to resign as an MP????
    IT WOULD LIKELYY BE IN HIS FINANCIAL INTERESTS TO HANG ON the last minute or at least till 1 year served? I dont know the pro's and cons completely of "financial aspects" but applying "general rules" ...!

    he was elected as a labour MP on the Labour platform, which we all now know was lies and smoke and mirrors and without a clue what to do !
    It is getting to be seen that the "blackhole was a figment of the imagination" by screwing up as they go along they do seem to be in control of making a "hole" in the fiscal budget which is maybe the only clear planned bit of smoke and mirrors they were in control of
    viz............. invent a £22bn blackhole to cover the need to raise an emergency finance flow as they knew they were up s*** creek!

    As I said you may be right, time will tell. I personally can’t see reform winning though, most won’t vote for them when push cones to shove.

    Nothing strange about my comment. Historically polls show a trend of protest votes between elections that usually fade away during a general election. I did concede however that may not be the case though. A perfectly sensible answer, nothing strange about it.
