Ofgem have today revealed that Britain might not have enough gas in a worst case scenario this winter.
Burnham says that it's better to produce oil and gas in Britain than importing it. So why is he banning new licences?
Here’s the real reason we need to get Britain drilling👇

It’s time for @AndyBurnham to do the right thing, and Axe the Family Farm Tax. 🚜

🚨 Job vacancies have dropped to their lowest level in 12 years outside the pandemic.
Businesses can’t afford to hire, with 176,000 fewer jobs available than when Labour took office.
This is what happens when you attack employers, tax jobs, and put up red tape.

Wow - listen to what Czech PM Andrej Babiš says to Sky’s Alistair Bunkall when he’s asked ‘Will you support Britain re-joining the EU?’
"Yes, of course. We need more money.”

SHOCKING: Nigel Farage admits he would hand over the Chagos Islands.
@KemiBadenoch is clear: The Chagos Islands are British, the Falkland Islands are British. There can be no negotiation.
🚨Exc: Nigel Farage has said he would give the Chagos Islands to Donald Trump in return for silence about the Falklands
He told a podcast that, if he were PM, "I'd have gone in and said, ‘Right, you know what mate? Chagos, it's yours.
"Diego Garcia, in perpetuity, the most strategic American military base in the world... In return, just please stop talking about the Falkland Islands"

Andy Burnham wants to smash up our centuries-old voting traditions
People don't want this - they've already told us in referendums!

I’m building a new Conservative Party, with new policies and new people.

“Why would anyone set up a business in this country right now?”
It’s becoming impossible to take risks, hire and build in Britain.
No wonder people are thinking twice.
Before the Prime Minister scraps it, it may be worth considering if Brexit could be the only thing still actually keeping our economy afloat in spite of two catastrophic Budgets.

It’s reheated old Labour socialism with Burnham.
No plan to cut taxes.
No plan to cut welfare.
No plan to fund defence.
The Labour faithful may have been cheering. The markets were watching, and they know Labour won’t confront the grim reality of Britain’s economic peril.
In my last blog I referred to JD Vance’s speculation that the Anti-Christ may already be walking the Earth amongst us. I suggested he gets his boss to look in the mirror
There are other candidates though: Putin’s ‘holy war’ is nothing short of terrifying

Our New Forest does not want a Tourist Tax - that’s what families and businesses across our communities tell me every week.
Our hospitality sector is already on its knees, they don’t need even more to struggle with.
Last week, our Committee reported on the hazards of unchecked AI development and demanded proper regulatory and legislative safeguards
We risk creating an intelligence greater than our own, which we do not understand and which will not be able to control

Those who can work, should work.
That’s why the next Conservative Government will cut benefits for those who refuse to get back to work and introduce a “Back to Work” card restricting what they can spend benefits on, saving taxpayers £538 million a year.

We wouldn't give much weight to the OECD's new GDP forecasts, but still interesting that...
1⃣ "Brexit Britain" is expected to grow as fast or faster than the euro area again in both 2026 and 2027 (France has now replaced Germany as Europe's "sick man")
2⃣ the euro area is expected to grow about half as fast as the US - why should the UK want to realign more closely with a failing economic bloc? 🤷♂️

The top 1% in the UK earn 13% of all incomes but pay 28% of our income tax
In a competitive global market to attract high taxpayers we can’t afford to lose them
By trying our best to export ours, we are killing the Goose that lays the golden egg
