Very concerning to see Labour MPs running around trying to protect their Islamist vote. After 14 years in opposition they are so desperate for power, they will do and say anything.

Richmond Park constituency has always been soft on crime and the need for policing in the Borough…

I support it (aged 51)….why? Because as a youngster I spent 5 years in the Army Cadets. Taught me discipline, integrity and allegiance to Queen & Country.
You self-entitled snowflakes can’t even get up in the morning and put your pants on the right way around.
@NReclining
@AllisonPearson
I’m more concerned about degradation of
#British
culture. I have personally seen the negative impact of multiculturalism in Australia, where c.50% of the population are foreign born. Many don’t speak English and choose to live in segregated communities.

@migrationCtrl
I don’t care about NI or Capital Gains cuts, war memorials for Muslims, child care or NHS Productivity Plans….
If we don’t have a functioning society, none of the above matters.
1. Immigration
2. Immigration
3. Immigration

Real wage growth and real GDP growth has outperformed the Eurozone…
Actual numbers will always hold more significance than a modelled outcome underpinned by false assumptions
@BEERG
We knew that being part of an undemocratic, failed EU project was not for us.
That’s why our economic growth is outpacing all European G7 economies.
@julianHjessop
Next big fall will come in April, as last year’s energy rises fall out the annual calculation.
I’m still thinking headline inflation will be back to target by Q2 2024.
@ChillaxBcn
We don't. I travelled from London to Glasgow only a couple of weeks ago for £44. Train left / arrived on time. Very clean and comfortable. Pleasant journey.
@GavinBarwell
Gavin, you can do better than that…
Yields on debt are higher now, than at the time of Truss’ budget.
Brexit impact was minimal.
Ukraine / Pandemic = 90%….

NHS have successfully managed to deliver less, with more.
Low levels of productivity across all areas of the public sector are well known.
They wouldn’t last 2 mins in the real world.
@CeeMacBee
Poor leadership combined with an impossible ask of trying to align member states interests and values.
EU knows this.
Which is why we see the only model on the table is ‘ever greater integration’
@janetrott50
@Telegraph
This fiasco? You’re probably not very financially literate, so let me explain. Mortgage rates went up everywhere - as central banks increased the Bank rate due to inflation. Yield on govt debt is higher now, than when Truss was in office (the same elsewhere)…
@cllr_aston
Nothing to do with the Pandemic or industrial strikes then?
NHS has more £ and employees than ever, but productivity is down 6.8% (ONS) pre-pandemic
@MrBrendanCox
@RishiSunak
Another ridiculous post.
Anderson made no reference to Muslims. What he did call out is Islamists, an extreme political ideology.
@ukhomeoffice
Too little, too late.
Trying to close the gap with
@reformparty_uk
when
@Conservatives
have consistently promised reductions since 2010…and failed to deliver.
Immigration is an existential threat to
#British
values, culture and peoples.
@Rob_Kimbell
It reflects the false narrative of the “Brussels effect” - we will impose our standards and regulations on you. No wonder Australia, India, Brazil have all said…no thanks!
@embournemouth
@BBCPolitics
Silly comments that show a lack of understanding of economic data. CPI has increased because of 1) war in Ukraine that pushed inflation up 3-4 pts and 2) post Covid supply chain constraints. The BoE has restricted monetary policy, nothing to do with Brexit..

Islam is not a race. It is a religion.
Islamism is the political ideology which seeks to enforce Islamic precepts and norms.
Nothing to do with race.
You can’t deny Islamic extremism is responsible for more U.K. based terror attacks than any other religion. Why?
@farhadesmaeili4
@AllisonPearson
That’s incorrect. The majority of studies shown students / immigrants have a net negative impact on the economy and the country.
@jockmcleod53
The reality is that
@theSNP
have made an almighty mess. The only thing that has kept them in power was the promise of independence. Now it has been well and truly established the SNP can’t deliver on that promise, support will fade away…until there is no-longer a party.
@grahambsi
@williamnhutton
Both Sunak and Starmer have said good relations with the EU is in everyone’s interest. Doesn’t mean we want to cede sovereignty to a federal political state that has failed.

@paul__johnson
As a taxi driver I wonder how much income tax he has paid and if it has covered the cost of his children and wife (school / NHS…)?
Net-Net negative?
@acgrayling
The majority? I think the majority made their mind up in 2016.
The undemocratic EU want
1) control over sovereign countries (the EU is a political construct and control is the only way it can sustain itself)
2) Budget so that unelected Commissioners can think up new laws
@HajajHiba
@metpoliceuk
I’m referring to our laws that are relevant to the protests in our country. People have a right to protest peacefully. Not with intimidation, or violence.
@JulienHoez
Even today, higher amount of G7 nominal GDP assigned to CPTPP than EU….only one direction of travel, particularly as other countries join the trans-pacific alliance…
@TerraOrBust
@HubertineAucler
Correct, UK would have to join the Euro…but we don’t need to compare the UK to the aggregate Eurozone, or EU…but individual constituents of the G7….ouch
@remain_central
‘Lost £850 per person in income’
Most informed people refer to that as GDP per capita..that will rise further when 2023 numbers published by ONS on 15 Feb.
@justinmadders
Get a grip. There are 3 issues:
1) Immigration - Starmer has no plan
2) Economy - Starmer has no real world experience
3) Health - Starmer might dabble at the edges, but no major overhaul
@RichardBurgon
I think most decent British people want Hamas, a terrorist organisation, to put down their weapons and release the remaining hostages.
Only then can we discuss a ceasefire.
@Dougmcg1
£1.99 a month will help elevate reading and numeracy standards in Scotland.
Please give generously so they can achieve the same standards as in England.
@julianHjessop
The bottom line is the U.K. could act nimbly - whilst the EU ‘agreement by committee’ slowed the decision-making. Proof is in the pudding. U.K. was able to get shots in the arm fasting than the EU circus.
@NileGardiner
They are only 8 years behind Brexit.
If the Conservatives had not messed up so very badly, Sunak would be riding a centre-right high tide in the GE
@BetckeTimo
A typical academic who has failed to grasp the key issue - mass immigration. Since 2000, when a number of Eastern European and former soviet countries joined the EU, our population has increased from 50m to 68m. It is not sustainable.
@outofunion
Ken, I think that is an unfair statement. People (including Scottish) criticise the SNP as they haven’t delivered the basics (health & education) for the Scottish people. It’s your devolved Government. You need to hold them to account.
@SayeedaWarsi
@SadiqKhan
Calling out extreme islamism is not racism. Islam is not a race.
The charge which should be put to Lee Anderson is ‘what evidence does he have that extreme Islamist ideology has influenced Khan’s political thinking’?

Yes, Italians live working in the UK as our open labour market operates on merit, not ‘who you know’.
Brits would find it very difficult to get a job in Italy….
@johnwhi20764601
Probably more to do with the simple facts; SNP running a 9% budget deficit; Not got to grips with Scotland’s drug & alcohol problems; education standards tanked; NHS terrible (but better than Wales 😉)..

Rishi summary:
- Unelected by voters
- Didn’t secure majority of Conservative party members
- Appointed by a small group of MPs
- Delivered 1/5 priorities
- Personal rating 20% behind opposition leader
- Polls suggest he will loose 200 seats at General Election
