US mid-terms: she predicts Republicans will keep the Senate (as I did several months ago).
She says 51-49. Even 50-50 would do it, as Vance has the casting vote.
Superb from @RafHM Shades of of Omar Sharif and Peter O'Toole in Lawrence of Arabia.
The slavery reparations brigade won’t be happy with warm words from King Charles.
Britain didn’t invent slavery, but we did play the major global role in abolishing it.
Slavery existed for over 5,000 years.
Every major civilisation accepted it.
For most of history, nobody seriously tried to stop it at scale.
Then Britain did something different.
It didn’t just pass a law.
👇
In 1807, Britain abolished the slave trade.
Then it enforced it.
For 60 years, the Royal Navy hunted slave ships.
1,600 ships captured.
Around 150,000 people freed.
And it cost lives.
Around 2,000 British sailors died doing it.
Then in 1833:
Britain abolished slavery across its empire.
800,000 people set free.
It paid £20 million to do it. Around 40 percent of government spending.
This wasn’t quick.
This wasn’t easy.
And it didn’t start with politicians.
It started with ordinary people.
Women boycotted sugar.
Hundreds of thousands of them.
Thomas Clarkson rode 35,000 miles to gather evidence.
A movement that took decades.
This is part of British history.
Not perfect.

Labour MP for Grimsby openly questions Burnhams EU ‘reset’
Lost seat to Tories in 2019, now has Reform breathing down her neck. Dozens are like her.
Under EU ‘returns agreement’ which Burnham quotes & Mahmood dismisses, we never managed to return more than 400 & every year ⬇️ the EU sent more back to us!

Add lack of reservoir capacity to long-list of decades old UK problems, planning rules need major rethink to get stuff built:
£ House-building behind target
£ 3rd runway at Heathrow- when, if ever
£ HS2 way behind time & over budget
£ No new Nuclear station for 30 years
Exc: Ministers have been secretly warned that some English reservoirs are at risk of running dry, hitting water supplies to homes in the run-up to Christmas.
The government’s emergency committee, known as Cobra, is meeting up to twice a week to discuss the situation in the southwest of England and Sussex.
A secret “reasonable worst-case scenario” was drawn up, anticipating that several reservoirs’ water stocks could fall to 0 per cent — dubbed “day zero” — within weeks.
Officials warned that without action, supplies to some homes could be affected, along with disruption to the construction of a nuclear power station and operations at a prison.
Steps have been taken by ministers and water companies to try to mitigate the risks, which insiders stressed were already starting to push back the “day zero” dates.
Experts on the government’s Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) have also been brought in to help review water companies’ modelling for protecting stocks for the weeks ahead.
Heatwaves over the summer left half of England in drought. Sussex and the southwest were the most severely affected.
Wimbleball reservoir, which supplies more than 400,000 people in Somerset, has 13 per cent of its capacity, while Ardingly, which serves 280,000 customers across West Sussex, is at 17 per cent, figures from yesterday show.
Reasonable worst-case scenario plans were drawn up by the government, setting out a “day zero” envisaging Wimbleball and Ardingly reservoirs’ stocks being completely depleted by December.
Subsequently, the government privately said it was told by South West Water that it did not anticipate Wimbleball running dry due to measures it had put in place. South East Water is also taking action that has shifted Whitehall “day zero” forecasts at Ardingly into next year. Even if the reservoirs did run completely dry, water companies would probably be able to transfer supplies from elsewhere.
However, significant concerns remain in government about water disruption to properties supplied by Devon’s Venford reservoir in early November. “Day zero” risk monitoring has also started for Cornwall’s Stithians and Drift reservoirs.
Water companies were asked to model the impact of water-saving measures, which have been scrutinised by members of Sage. Ministers were told that shortages could affect daily operations at HMP Exeter and the construction of Hinkley Point C, a nuclear power station being built in Somerset.
Normal levels of rainfall over autumn and winter will not be enough to counteract the effects of the drought, which was extended to cover Yorkshire this month. Officials have calculated there will need to be 120 per cent of long-term average rainfall over the next six months for a nationwide recovery.
Socialism would be the ruin of any country, the USA 🇺🇸would not have become the free, leading and prosperous country it is under socialism!
Always like Pence, a thoughtful & Christian guy, especially when he came over as VP to tell us the US Govt supported Brexit.

Higher tax rates will reduce revenue, boosting avoidance and the black market, especially on tobacco. Click on below ⬇️ in S. Express from us
Ahead of the Budget, we warn that another tobacco tax raid will be a further bonanza for criminal gangs selling illegal smokes & vapes. Higher taxes in general can lead to reduced receipts, as people alter their behaviour.
Legal cigarette packs cost £15 to £20, fake 'under the counter' ones can often be bought for £5.
