Why is the PM involving himself in a local policing issue?
Itβs purely a policing issue designed to protect British residents from well-known hooligans who have been banned elsewhere in Europe.
This is wild. The PM is putting Israeli hooligans before Britsβ safety and the law.

Kier Starmer and this entire rotten government deserve the ritual humiliation and decimation of their political careers that is coming soon, they deserve all of it and more, genuinely the most mendacious bunch of runts to ever set foot in parliament, and that's saying something.

There are less than 200 constituencies across the entire UK in which the right cannot win. The only way to beat them is to vote tactically. In most parts of England, if you do not vote for your sitting Labour MP you will be making it easier for Reform to take power. That's just a simple fact.

Bar graphs showing support for the main parties and Reform in each of England, Wales and Scotland.
Democracy in Scotland? Looking at this opinion poll, Reform would form the WM gov't. But support for the SNP in Scotland is HIGHER than Reform's in the UK. Reform get a mandate to do what they will across the UK whilst the SNP doesn't in Scotland. If we want to flourish then we need indy now.

It costs ~$70 to produce a yearβs supply of insulin.
Yet, the average annual cost of insulin went from $2,864 in 2012 to $5,705 in 2016 to $18,000 in 2025. A 25,714% markup. That isnβt inflation or supply chainβItβs corporate greed.
