@prodnose Danny - Mrs Thatcher built more public housing than any subsequent Government. - More manufacturing jobs lost under Blair/Brown - Economic performance better than any subsequent Government - Lower taxes - Higher Growth - Less Growth - Great in Great Britain actually meant

@KevinPascoe Hi Kevin Why is it nonsense? The man earned the medals and he is entitled to wear them. If you disagree that he should wear his medals you also devalue them for every other soldier who earned them.

Another excellent article from ⁦ @AllisonPearson ⁩ on the catastrophe that is our #NHS . Given the way ⁦ @UKLabour ⁩ go on you would think politicians run services not the 100’s of well paid senior managers who are actually in charge.

@AllisonPearson Alison what is more worry is that the liberal elite have taken so long to realise that multiculturalism has failed and that there really is no plan to tackle the high levels of unsustainable immigration.

@RishiSunak is a high tax politician. You can’t say your a low tax advocate when you have continuously increased taxes. We need a policy of sound money and that means public sector restraint and cutting taxes. Trust citizens to spend and save their own hard earned money.
