OPINION: Prime Minister's Questions is more than a Punch and Judy When I knock on people’s doors, I sometimes hear the following refrain.

"In some areas, First Past the Post could mean MPs getting elected on as little as 25% or 30% of the vote.

That is not sustainable for British politics, and it is time for Proportional Representation." 💯💯💯

Do your duty! Watch an hour of GB News We need Ofcom to act against a TV channel out of control. Here’s how you can help

I’m committed to checking the output of GBNews, that it complies with OFCOM guidelines. Financing this TV station might amount to covert donations to Reform UK – without restrictions otherwise imposed on political parties. app.thenewworld.co.uk/story/153028...

Driver jailed over Birmingham Eid crash that killed girl, four Javonnie Tavener is sentenced over the crash that killed Mayar Yahia in April 2024.

In England a driver can be speeding, using cannabis and a phone, overtake another vehicle, mount the pavement outside a school playground and kill a 4-year-old girl while uninsured — and receive just 3 years 10 months for causing death by careless driving.

Yes Reform. It's absolutely fine that utility and grocery bills have skyrocketed in recent years but most of us haven't had a pay rise in that time. We can all make up that huge gap. We are just exaggerating. Or maybe you think we can't do maths so we will take your word for it?

NEW: since last year, a pair of "highly trained" feds have been involved in an array of incidents attacking crowds with chemical weapons.

Bondi letter to Walz requests access to Minnesota voting and welfare records, repeal of 'sanctuary' policies A letter from Attorney General Bondi was sent to Gov. Walz requesting access to state records and for "sanctuary policies" to be repealed.

"Give us all your data or we'll kill more of your people"

All the racist repression is all a cover to create and protect their authoritarian mafia state.

"One child bleeding from an eye injury wasn’t seen by medical staff for two days. Another child’s foot was broken when a member of the staff dropped a volleyball net pole."

Murder victim Alex Pretti about 45 seconds before his death.

Murder victim Alex Pretti about 45 seconds before his death.

DHS Sec Kristi Noem said Pretti attacked officers, & CPB Commander Bovino said Alex wanted to do “maximum damage & massacre law enforcement.” In posts on X, Trump’s deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller called Pretti "a would-be assassin.”

If this same clip was in the UK, the whole US conservative political-media complex would freak out and saying it's proof that Britain is worse than North Korea, a society of woke censorship and fear that needs to be torn down. Podcasts would cover it for weeks. Vance would do a long sarcastic tweet.

All of these new rulings don’t just affect today, they rewrite precedent. Trump still has three years left, and whatever expanded powers the Court hands him now will automatically pass to the next president as well.
