It’s impressive to combine a complete misunderstanding of NHS funding, workforce dynamics and productivity economics with a casually misogynistic aside about women “not working”.

That’s a full bingo card of not knowing what you’re talking about.

Yes, money alone won’t fix the NHS.

But without money you don’t have beds, theatres, or staff - and without those, “productivity” collapses.

Calling that inefficiency just shows how spectacularly the Telegraph misunderstands the system.

Absolutely disgusting. That feral behaviour from British people! Why does everyone blame this shitty behaviour on immigrants? It’s not them it’s us. They walk amongst us. There was a situation some years ago in my hometown. A man raping kids who didn’t know better.
A white British father and son BOTH raped the same child and pled guilty to multiple counts of Sexual assault.

This has been in the press for 2 days.

The Mirror is the only National newspaper to report on it…

And THAT’s why people have such a skewed perception of the links between race and SA🤷🏼‍♀️

Said it before and I'll say it again, Emma is really good at this stuff.
Needless to say, the teacher was not banned *because* they told a Muslim child that Britain is a Christian country🙄

I mean that was *one* of the things he said

And he was banned *after* several incidences

So technically the headline is true, but that’s not the actual story!

Farage endorsed Enoch Powell’s rhetoric as recently as 2014 when aged 50 years. “I agree with the basic principle of what Enoch was saying.”
He even begged Powell to endorse and campaign for him when he stood as a UKIP candidate.

BP to scrap paid rest breaks and most bank holiday bonuses for forecourt staff.

Changes to employee benefits would cut take-home pay by at least 6.25%.

Would exec pay and dividends be cut? No chance.

Hard-won rights eroded as corporations rule without ever being elected.

Back to Victorian times.

Inexcusable. They need to be held to account.
Covid fraud under the Tories cost the UK taxpayer £10.9bn.

VIP lanes and crony contracts.

Lack of anti-fraud controls in Covid scheme.
Money handed out for non-existent employees
Newly formed companies got public money
No competitive tenders
Poor checks on quality.

How much would be recovered?
Covid fraud under the Tories cost the taxpayer £10.9 billion
The counter-fraud and error measures during the pandemic under the Conservative Government were accused of being 'so lax they may as well have left the door wide open'

A good point - my Truss-Catastrofuckup-Surcharge works out to £4,800 a year and I certainly didn’t have Mel Stride or Nigel Farage sprinting to my defence.
Nobody equates the £2,500 charge to the likely additional cost to the owner of a 2% increase in their mortgage repayments - y'know, what Liz Truss did with nary a peep from these householders.

Our news channel are failing to show his bias.
Exactly this 👇
Look, this French publication correctly labels Farage as the leader of a far right party (even if it’s technically a limited company).

Why does the British mainstream media seem to have a different definition?
He is simply called ‘the leader of Reform UK’, which makes him sound innocuous.
