Well done to all. A great achievement

This past week, on a test bed in Britain, a Rolls-Royce jet engine ran at full take-off power on pure hydrogen, putting out water vapour instead of carbon. Nobody on Earth had managed it before. It is the sort of thing that ought to stop the country in its tracks, and it will be forgotten by the weekend. Leave aside the recent paroxysms of renewed net-zero insanity from Derelict Ed and the pervasive atmosphere of offended envy that greets much homegrown achievement nowadays in Britain. This engineering is a wonder, and it's British to the bone. We gave the world the jet engine in the first place - Frank Whittle, a Coventry man and an RAF officer, patented it in 1930 while the Air Ministry assured him it was a curiosity. Rolls-Royce is today one of perhaps three firms anywhere that can build a large aero engine at the outer edge of the possible, and it has just done what most of the industry swore was twenty years away. As usual, you marvel at how little the people who govern us had to do with it. The engineers in Derby are world-class; the stewardship above them is third-rate. They pulled off a global first while paying the most expensive industrial electricity in the developed world to keep the power on over the bench - a weight no German, American or Gulf rival has to carry. We produce frontier brilliance on the shop floor and fritter it away at the despatch box, and we have done for two generations. That is the maddening shape of modern Britain: brilliance from below, sub- (or, indeed, ultra-) mediocrity from above. The people here who actually make things are still among the best in the world; the state that is meant to back them treats a firm like Rolls-Royce as a photocall today and a takeover target tomorrow, and prices its energy as though it would prefer the next plant were built in Texas. Progress starts from the other end. Give these people what every rival government gives its champions and we beg ours to do without: the cheap, abundant power their competitors already enjoy, a supply chain built around them, and a state that guards a national asset rather than auctioning it. The hard part of a British revival - the talent, the nerve, the engineering - is already done, and was done again this week, by people who deserve a far better country than the one currently sitting above them. We just taught an engine to breathe fire and exhale water. The least we owe the men and women who managed it is a government and a state as brilliant as they are.

To be soft on crime is to betray the law-abiding citizen. And to make excuses for the criminal is to offer incentives to dishonesty and violence. Crime flourishes in a culture of excuses. We Conservatives know, even if many sociologists don't, that crime is not a sickness to be cured—it is a temptation to be resisted, a threat to be deterred, and an evil to be punished.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit 👍🏻

Translation: what’s this politician doing speaking common sense and telling the general public the truth. This simply won’t do. Must ring kier to send the social media police round and silence her immediately 🙄

🚨 BLAIR BOMBSHELL: SCRAP NET ZERO NOW! “THERE’S NO LOGIC TO IT!” 🔥 Tony Blair Demands Starmer Scrap Milibands Mad Expensive Green Agenda Immediately‼️ Blair has just shredded mad Miliband and the entire net zero agenda. There’s zero logic to it! Asked directly for total clarity: “For total clarity, are you advising Keir Starmer to rip up Ed Milibands green energy targets?” Blair bluntly replied: “Yes I am!” He explained that the 3 biggest emitters in the world today are China, America and India. Together they “account for just over 50% of global emissions.” All are pursuing cheap energy. They still do renewable energy. “China for example builds more renewable energy than the rest of the world put together.” “It just means that the lens from which they judge policy is cheap energy.” He rightly points out Britain’s emissions are “under 1% of global emissions” so we can’t solve climate change. And says he “doesnt understand the logic behind” imposing costs on businesses and consumers to pursue net zero when the rest of the world is not doing so. He says again he doesnt understand why we’re shutting down North Sea oil and gas industry in circumstances where no other country in the world is doing that if “they’ve still got a requirement to import energy from oil and gas”. It costs way too much and “is not the right priority!” Net zero is not saving the planet. It is economic self-harm. Blair has just blown the entire agenda apart.

The numbers Lam laid out are not a typo. Four wives: £𝟕𝟖,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐚 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 in UK benefits. Eleven wives: 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐨 £𝟏𝟕𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐚 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫. Lam didn't dodge: “𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘺𝘨𝘢𝘮𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘭 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘩𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴.

Taxpayers — people working forty-hour weeks — are funding the legally-impossible household structure of new arrivals, at six-figure rates per household. “𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨.” 𝐈𝐟 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐲𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐚𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐭.

No wonder we are disenchanted with all current politicians. Does he seriously think if he comes on social media and slags another politician off, that we will want to vote for him 🤷🏼‍♂️. Does the lack of them telling us what they would do differently suggest they don’t have a clue

Very proud of these lads. Great to see them not only getting on in their football career but also to see the fine young men they are growing in to. We wish them all the very best 💙🖤

New Labour in its shrivelled heart is embarrassed by our history, scornful of our achievement, oblivious of our legacy. They think they can remove Britain's sovereignty just as they put up Britain's taxes—by stealth. They are wrong but they are too arrogant and too remote to know it.

🚨 Breaking - 210,000 jobs gone — is this what happens when Labour taxes jobs? The latest payroll data shows Britain has 210,000 fewer payrolled employees than a year ago. That’s not a recovery. That’s jobs disappearing under Labour. 📉 The state expands. 📉 The real economy shrinks. 📉 Workers pay the price. How many more jobs have to vanish before Rachel Reeves admits her jobs tax is hammering the labour market?

🚨 Starmer says Brexit made Britain poorer. But the GDP data tells a more awkward story. Since the Brexit vote: UK real GDP: 12.1% Germany real GDP: 6.0% Britain is not booming. Nobody serious should pretend it is. But Europe’s supposed economic engine has grown at barely half the UK’s rate. So why is Starmer’s big answer still more Europe? This wasn’t a reset. It was a relapse: more Brexit blame, more Brussels, more excuses. No wonder voters are walking away from Labour.

You are solely responsible for causing business higher costs and hence the lower tax returns and higher unemployment. You are as delusional as your boss. You lot are starting to believe you’re own lies 🙄

Josh is unbelievable as mentioned previously. Jack is playing and captaining the team like he’s found his spiritual footballing home here @SelstonFC. Been with us some time now and we love having him. Bleeds and sweats black and blue and epitomises what the club is about. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
