This is one measure of the growing effectiveness of the Ukrainian military over the past year. That Ukraine has also almost halted Russian ground advances, and imposed a 1.4:1 killed:wounded ratio on the Russians shows that Ukraine may have developed the most effective, lethal military force in modern history. This is why Putin needs Trump, Kushner and Witkoff to help him. What does this mean? 1/12 🇺🇦 🧵

The return of Labour’s old foe?
Andy Burnham has instructed the Labour party to “re-arm” to fight the Conservatives at the next election amid concern inside government that they must take the prospect of a Kemi Badenoch-led recovery seriously.
Downing Street sources said the PM wanted Labour HQ to refocus on the Tories as an electoral threat after more than two years of prioritising Reform and, on their left flank, the Greens.
“Andy is well aware of how volatile electoral support is. Just because the Tories are trailing in the polls now, their trajectory is upwards and they could bounce back ahead of the election. We can’t be complacent about our old foe,” one said.

There is a reason why Malawi's acknowledgment of British's to save their people for Arab slavery is particularly satisfying.
It is a corrective to one of London Mayor Sadiq Khan's most despicable acts.
In 2022 he gave the go-ahead for the erection on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square of a statue to celebrate Malawian Joseph Chilembwe, who had his followers behead a white farmer in front of his wife and children (who were sprayed with his blood) and then preached the following Sunday with the severed head next to him on the pulpit.
Khan cleared this in spite of the fact that, as he must have known or at least guessed if he had actually cared about them, the victim's grandchildren, for whom this was an awful part of their family history, were STILL ALIVE and living in the UK.
It remained up for 2 years.
Can you imagine how they must have felt?
I spoke to one grandchild and they told me how distant their aunt, a little girl at the time of the murder, always seemed to be. No surprise, poor kid, poor woman living with that all her life.

Sixty-nine offences. Sixteen burglaries. Sexual activity with a child.
He takes over a family’s flat, changes the locks and STILL avoids prison.
And he gets so much in benefits … he donates to the Labour Party.

Thank you to our local members for readopting me as the Conservative candidate for Richmond and Northallerton.
They don’t call Yorkshire God’s own country for nothing, and it’s an honour to represent this corner of it.

Through its department of museums, Malawi will also celebrate the British Empire by conserving its ruined forts

I’m deeply disappointed that Labour will reaffirm their agreement to allow EU fishing vessels into British waters until 2038.
I wrote to the Government to emphasise the betrayal fishermen feel.

Local Piddington residents not happy about the way Zia Yusuf took cheap political shots instead of supporting them
Poor Zia needs to learn to read the room
The Conservatives are the only party with a serious plan - the BORDERS plan - to fix this

Kemi calls Zia Yousef an arse and I'm totally here for it frankly.
The real Shadow Home Secretary won that exchange and the applause. The fake one went along to score cheap points but made an arse of himself instead.
Reform MPs Jenrick and Braverman (currently spending her time handcuffed to Katie Price) were part of the failure. They are not a serious party and have no serious plans for government. They are noisy time-wasters who are merely standing in the way of us removing this Labour government.
Conservatives are different from Reform. We acknowledge mistakes we made and work to rebuild trust. We are now the only party with an actual plan to leave the ECHR and solve the small boats crisis for good.

I warned the SNP Government about the crisis facing NHS Grampian over a year ago.
They didn't listen and have been asleep at the wheel ever since.
The SNP must take urgent action to avert a winter emergency.
