A man builds an IED. He sets it off in a busy public street. Shrapnel flies about hitting cars, homes and a child's bedroom. It's a miracle nobody is injured. And Reform MP Sarah Pochin calls his imprisonment "disproportionate" and "two tier justice."
It does raise this point of two-tiered
justice..


Reform's Sarah Pochin believes the
sentence handed to the 64-year-old who
blew up a ULEZ camera was
disproportionate'.

Due to our growing number of members we have enough who can make a midweek to put on a coach for the Cup game against Newcastle. For those that may normally get the the train, getting home for this will be a nightmare, so why not jump on the coach with us? 😊

Now that Nigel Farage has had his demands answered in the RAF Fairford investigation can we all demand an update from the Parliamentary standards commission and Met police regarding their investigations into him and Reform.

Farage posted this at 12.38 today. It has been hopelessly overtaken by events and shown to be entirely wrong (British nationals involved and they've been released on bail - not very terrorist-like). And if you believe anything Trump says, you are a credulous moron.

Dear lord. Yet again England conceded 3+ goals when Pickford didn't start; something that has only happened once with Pickford in goal. And the media talk is of replacing him, and weirdly of 'Trafford's solid display'. There is no debate as to whether he is England's best keeper. None. At all.

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.
It's a disaster, and it can all be traced to
Labour ideology. Burnham has no mandate
from the people. He has no real ideas, and
no plan,

The real problem Britain faces is unlicensed fades - this is a true social crisis that must be stopped. Unlike, say, UNLICENSED CHILD SOCIAL CARE WHICH HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS AND IS BANKRUPTING COUNCILS AND DOING *THIS* TO VULNERABLE KIDS:
From the BBC article "Why illegal children's homes are being paid up to £2m per child by councils", May 2026: 

The bungalow doesn't look much like a children's home. A sheet of privacy film wrongly placed outside a window is peeling. Inside, the wallpaper is flaking, carpets are frayed and doors are broken. The children's home is unregistered and therefore illegal but the provider is charging a council elsewhere in the country £13,000 a week to care for a vulnerable teenage girl. She requires the support of three full-time members of staff. There are no books, toys or games.

Just a few miles away, another illegal children's home is being run from a council house. Its tenant is subletting the property to a company that is also charging a different local authority thousands of pounds a week.
