Oakeshott was the political editor of The Sunday Times and is the co-author, with Michael Ashcroft, of an unauthorised biography of former British prime minister David Cameron, Call Me Dave, and of various other non-fiction titles, including White Flag? An examination of the UK’s defence capability, also written with Ashcroft, Farmageddon, co-written with Philip Lymbery, and Pandemic Diaries, co-written with Matt Hancock, which provides an account of Hancock’s tenure as the UK’s Health Secretary during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Gender-fluid Eddie Izzard has announced she/he has a new feminine name, and from now on is going by “Suzy Eddie”. Appearing on Matt Forde’s Political Party podcast last night, the comedian-turned-wannabe politician revealed:
“I prefer to see she/her, I don’t mind he/him … I’m Eddie. There’s another name I’m going to add in as well, which is Suzy, which I wanted to be since I was 10. I’m going to be Suzy Eddie Izzard.”
Suzy Eddie also vowed to continue hunting for a seat “until I get in”, and even scoffed at the idea of being a mere backbencher, adding “do I have to be backbench?”. No, although it helps to at least get selected first…
Twitter really didn’t pay much attention to the Panorama prog

Most tweets were against it
“Why did the BBC’ misinformation reporter not report on the scandal of massive, systemic misinformation and cancellation of Free Speech reported in #twitterfiles carried out by Twitter during the pre-Musk era?”
========================
😂 #BBC hates free speech on Twitter.
BBC never cared about all the censorship, nor the Twitter Files revelations because the BBC is an Orwellian institution.

The award-winning series returns to investigate the divisive story of Shamima Begum.
Britain’s power system operator has, for the first time ever, ordered two of five emergency coal-fired generators to produce electricity to help prevent the lights going out.
National Grid ESO made the announcement hours after it activated contingency plans as a precaution over fears supplies may struggle to keep up with demand during the current cold snap.
Two coal powered stations in West Burton in Lincolnshire began feeding into the national grid on Tuesday afternoon.
The Mail carries a story of a lady being arrested for silently praying outside a clinic where babies are killed .
She has apparently already been arrested and aquitted for a similar incident .
If ever a story was likely to up my blood pressure this is it . Im sure this will never hit the BBC . I will pray for the lady and pray that the plod doesnt burn in hell …
EG
OFCOM deserves a degree of individual examination . They seem to be unaccountable- with all culture ministers appointed to just fill a gap and be ‘ in the tent’ .
My Steyn should do individual career bio s of each member … only fair since they wield so much power
2 old coal-fired power stations have been brought back into service to help deal with the cold snap….
No attempt to dig into the reasons why the UK has had to fall back on these at all, such as the over confidence in the useless wind turbines and the closing down of gas and fracking sites due to looney pressure groups.
In fact this quite revealing bit of information is not deemed to be in the slightest newsworthy as the BBC would rather it stayed almost invisible to appease their phantom army of woke viewers.
It’s lucky that blue labour green loon who sobs when ever he demolishes a coal powered station didn’t get his hands on those mothballed sites.
Really cannot believe the madness which comes with false green crap ….
Future generations who ‘do real science ‘ and will have more understanding of how the climate works – will look back at the early 21st century and say – with deep profundity – WTF ? ( assuming of course putin hadn’t killed us all ) ….
The Russian Antarctic base ‘Vostok’ has just recorded a temperature of minus 68.1C ! The previous record is minus 64.7C bear in mind that the Antarctic is opposite to our weather and they are in the equivalent of early September.
I doubt this degree of cold will even make it to the UK MSM but there do appear to be a huge number of cold weather records being broken and snow in places where it is very unusual.
No doubt we will be told once again it’s getting colder because it’s getting warmer or some other nonsense !
You and me both. The women in our house cried for over a week after the election. Just suddenly burst into tears while cooking dinner or taking a shower. It was rough… and justified.

Boo hoo, the BBC’s Disinformation Correspondent says Elon Musk is responsible for not censoring people angry about BBC propaganda and censorship. People should not use Free Speech on Twitter to complain about BBC Correspondents in rude ways.
The BBC believes that prior to the pandemic, mad people have never believed mad things and acted them out in public. The BBC reporter Marianna Spring knows all things, and can determine what is and what is not Disinformation. Disinformation is information from scientists not yet authorised by the 77th Brigade. Most disinformation comes from Peter Hitchens, Cardiologists, NHS Doctors and the Reichsbürger.
Marianna Spring and the BBC, s Trusted News Initiative are determined to support Big Pharma and the authorities in their fight against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. virologists, cardiologists and anyone else who says the mRNA jab is not at all “Safe and Effective.
Of course, the BBC exemplifies a world with nearly no hate, except for Leavers, Tories, heterosexuals, the countryside, unionists, old people, white people, anti-maskers, motorists. https://t.co/u3P4PRHlRP

I don’t know the detail – but I do know that careful property taxes controlled housing bubbles and local speculation for decades. Flip a house in < 1 year and you were scalped for most of the profit by the state, with a sliding scale thereafter.

Can you tell me why people have to “Suck It Up” regards immigration when your party leaders have said the following:
1978 … “Every country can take some small minorities and in many ways they add to the richness and variety of this country. The moment the minority threatens to become a big one, people get frightened.” – Margaret Thatcher 1978
2012 … “Two and a half years ago, the coalition governme nt was formed, and we made a clear promise to the British public. After thirteen years of uncontrolled mass immigration, this government would reduce and control immigration.” – Theresa May 2012
2015 … “Because when immigration is too high (no figure given), when the pace of change is too fast, it’s impossible to build a cohesive society…. And we know that for people in low-paid jobs, wages are forced down even further while some people are forced out of work altogether. … So there is no case, in the national interest, for immigration of the scale we have experienced over the last decade.” – Theresa May 2015
Yours sincerely
