Note the indecision, lack of balance, the pratfall and the general absence of skill and awareness. Sums up his performance cosplaying the role of Prime Minister.
Prime Minister Andy Burnham took a tumble playing cricket in Antigua and Barbuda. The PM is in the Caribbean for the Commonwealth heads of government meeting. Watch more: trib.al/wiCWt7r

The government’s grandest plane, an A321 jet, took off from Stansted at 6.05 a.m. this morning. Burnham wasn't on it. It flew 34 minutes to Manchester to collect the PM, then set off for the Commonwealth summit in Antigua. Guido estimates the detour cost around £20,000 of taxpayer cash. Avanti not good enough for him? Flight tracking data shows the jet landed in Manchester at 6.39 a.m. and left again at 8.06 a.m., heading for a refuelling stop in Newfoundland before the Caribbean. The government eventually publishes what every trip on the plane costs. Starmer’s same-day trip to Paris on in April came to £39,756 at roughly £20,000 a leg. Stansted to Manchester is shorter than Paris, but every additional leg brings its own landing and handling fees. About £18,000-20,000’s worth according to Guido’s fag packet maths… The whole jaunt, there and back, comes to about 21 hours of flying. Based on Starmer’s £121,239 trip to Yerevan in May and Yvette Cooper’s £148,700 trip to Washington in December, long-haul flying on the plane costs between £9,500 and £12,400 an hour. That puts Burnham's full trip at about £250,000. Burnham took the same government jet from Glasgow to Manchester in July to open No10 North, despite a choice of trains. When Liz Truss used the same plane to fly to Australia, @AngelaRayner called it a “ridiculous waste of half a million pounds on a private jet trip”. Thoughts on this one, Ange?

Does anyone else find Romesh Ranganathan just not funny? I don't get all the love for him. Never have, never will. He's not a comedian, he's a lecture with a laugh track smug, preachy, and about as funny as a tax return.

Love this. Bob Gelder, a Wolves fan since the age of 10, is now 101 years old. He enlisted in the Royal Navy in the second world war and served on the Arctic and African convoys. Today he was welcomed as a special guest at Molineux.
Bob's moment 🧡

🐺 First ever ‘champions of the world’ at club level, long before the likes of #LFC #mufc and #mcfc 🐺 The reason for European football starting 🐺’Champions of the world, you’ll never sing that’ 🐺 Kids of today don’t realise just how huge we are #wwfc #wolves
Football History in Colour 🎨 Billy Wright and Ferenc Puskas lead out Wolves and Honved at Molineux. The match, played under floodlights, was massive for football history with Wolves proclaimed by the press as ‘champions of the world’ after a 3-2 win! Colourised: @Garswoodlatic

Sledge Hammer! (1986) is pure absurd comedy — reckless, ridiculous, and still one of the funniest police satires ever made.

Labour has added £500 BILLION to our national debt in just two years-and their only solution is RAISING our taxes to fund it. Billions wasted on overseas aid, benefits, and foreign policy, while the UK hits £2.3 trillion in total debt. We are now burning through £110 billion every year just paying the interest. Unbelievable economic mismanagement📉 🇬🇧

🚨BREAKING: Jeremy Clarkson is facing fresh calls from the left to be CANCELED after he weighed in on the Muslim grooming gangs scandal and said it is not racist to investigate a rapist. His exact words: “It’s not racist to investigate a rapist! We need to remove the shackles of political correctness from the police.” In his column, Clarkson argued that police must be freed from the fear of being labeled racist if they pursue these cases. He wrote that a young girl could report being raped by a gang of Pakistani men only to be dismissed because officers know they risk cancellation for reporting it. Clarkson said another public inquiry is unnecessary because the problem is already clear, and the real obstacle has been the refusal to confront the ethnicity of the perpetrators without being accused of bigotry. The comments have drawn sharp criticism online from activists who claim he is stoking racism, with some calling for advertisers and platforms to drop him. This is the same pattern that has followed Clarkson for years whenever he says something "politically incorrect".

This chart has been made using data from The Office for National Statistics. Bear in mind that they are an official body and collect data for the government. What this shows is that the only people who contribute to British society are white people. Everyone else takes. Proof yet again that diversity is not our strength. It’s our burden.

The cope is dead. “We contribute.” The chart is right there. White households are the only ones in surplus. Everyone else is a net fiscal drain. That’s not a debate. That’s the ONS. You take more than you put in. The numbers shut the claim down. “We built Britain.” No. The English did. Centuries of continuous settlement, law, industry and institutions on these islands before you arrived. A passport or a birth certificate doesn’t rewrite that. You didn’t build it. You turned up later and started consuming it. “If all the immigrants left the economy would collapse.” The opposite. Remove the net recipients and the people who still fund the system are better off. The infrastructure, the NHS, the welfare, paid for by the historic population that remains the only group in credit. You are not the engine. You are the cost. You’re staring at the government’s own data and still running the same script.

Why aren't more people in the UK looking at Poland and thinking, " We could have this." Low crime. Growth. Love of country. Secure borders. It can be done. You just have to love your country enough to make it happen.

BREAKING NEWS! Almost 2,000 Illegal Economic Migrants have arrived on British shores in the past 4 days in 16 boats; when a GOVT whatever political persuasion cannot protect it’s borders or it’s people it’s one that should never be in power; what fucking mess Britain is in👇🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️
🚨 INVASION UPDATE 🚨 In The Last Three Days 1,193 Migrants In 16 Small-Boats Have Illegally Crossed The Channel Into England Where Will Thes People Go? To the Prime Minister @andyburnham and the Department for Housing: @mhclg Our housing infrastructure is in crisis, and the public deserves a transparent explanation Look at the official data: • 1.34 million British families are stuck on council housing waiting lists, some facing delays of up to a decade for a secure home • Over 382,000 of our own people are legally homeless, including an unprecedented 175,000+ children living in temporary accommodation • Rough sleeping on our streets has surged to a record high of 4,793 people on any given night—and 79% of them are UK nationals At the exact same time, the Home Office is supporting roughly 89,000 asylum seekers nationwide while trying to close down migrant hotels The mathematical reality is undeniable. If hotels are closing, council houses are completely full, and the private rental sector has a multi-year waiting list, where are these thousands of arrivals from the Channel crossings supposed to go? Every placement adds immediate, secondary pressure to local council resources, schools, and health authorities that are already at a literal breaking point It is entirely unsustainable to ask local communities to manage a cross-border migration crisis when we cannot even fulfill our basic obligations to the citizens who live here Stop side-stepping the infrastructure reality. Put our own struggling families first and tell the public exactly how this system is supposed to cope

Almost 1,200 migrants have arrived illegally by small boat in the past three days. Despite all the promises over many years by government ministers (of all political stripes) to fix the problem, it shows no sign of abating. Make no mistake, this is state failure on a seismic scale. The longer it goes on, the greater the implications for the integrity of our democracy and the cohesion of our society.

🚨 10,000 illegal migrants have broken into Britain by boat since Andy Burnham became PM. More on the way. His idea of a response is laying on police escorts for the invaders. Britain needs Reform.

Tomorrow Labour’s Home Secretary will announce she is conceding defeat to Angela Rayner. And the mad Labour backbench MPs. She will U-turn on her promise to stop the Boriswave settling and getting British passports. Burnham is betraying the people of Makerfield again. He promised not to water down Mahmood’s settlement reforms. The cost of this betrayal will be hundreds of billions added to Britain’s debt. British people again being betrayed in service of foreign nationals. We cannot go on like this. Reform will fight this betrayal with everything we have.
