UXBRIDGE WAS A REFERENDUM ON ULEZ. Voters have spoken: they hate this punitive tax. This needs to be a wake-up call to Sadiq Khan and all eco-obsessed politicians nationally

Study shows "Greenland was ice-free 416,000 years ago when Earth warmed, causing global sea levels to rise 5-20 feet"
No cars, factories, industry. Perhaps the odd fire in caves. It's almost like the Earth's climate changes naturally over time 🤷♂️

As a dad, if my newborn baby had to get to hospital and Just Stop Oil wouldn’t move after being told that, I honestly think I’d drive through them
Slag me off all you like, but I’d put my child before myself, and certainly before these narcissistic, selfish imbeciles

Fair play to @jonsopel Like many anti-Brexit liberals, he was duped by inaccurate BBC reporting on the Coutts scandal. But at least he's had the guts to apologise to @nigel_farage for it
<div class="rsshub-quote">
Jon Sopel: @nigel_farage Dear Nigel,
Always believed when I get things wrong, I own up to it. I got it wrong. Sorry. That will teach me to trust reporting of my old employer 😉 If your political views were even part of the reason why account was suspended from #Coutts that is totally reprehensible

In a surprise to nobody, the Coutts boss who handled Nigel Farage’s bank account is a staunch Remainer. She’s also a climate change zealot who attended COP26. Self-appointed moral guardian! https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/07/19/coutts-bank-camilla-stowell-boss-remain-voter-nigel-farage/

Superb from @HowardCCox, who explains why successive governments have allowed motorists to be "fleeced" - because they rake in £billions from VAT on soaring pump prices

Here’s hoping Jeremy Corbyn runs for London mayor. He will split the Labour vote & we have a real chance of shaking off the most divisive, tax-addicted, virtue-signalling politician of our generation: Sadiq Khan
The contest would be wide open! https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/jeremy-corbyn-london-mayor-khan-b2377313.html

The Bibby Stockholm shames our nation. It’s tangible, ugly proof this government has utterly failed in its primary task: to take back control of our borders
It is a painful display of surrender. Every single politician of all colours should hang their heads in shame https://t.co/q3v52clTjR

Re NOBODY wants the Bibby Stockholm. It isn’t a “floating prison”. 500 men will be free to come ashore & roam the town every day. Even the “anti racists” don’t want it: they know it will overwhelm the NHS. Next, watch crime soar. It’s a horror show waiting to happen

Are the Tories heading for a by-election wipeout? We will find out on Friday… But will things be any better under Labour?
More of the same - more Net Zero, more immigration, more tax, more gender madness, more globalism - to me feels like: “Do you want to be hung, or shot?” https://t.co/nokweymc1D

Are Labour in bed with Just Stop Oil? They seem to share the same suicidal policy on banning North Sea Oil drilling - idiotically meaning we're more reliant on importing gas, as we can't rely un renewables that conk out when we need them most!

Your usual reminder that Sadiq Khan’s “free” schools meals aren’t free. He’s taxing London motorists £500million/year through ULEZ schemes to pay for them. Plus London’s neediest kids already get free school meals!
