The BMA Resident Doctors Committee has announced a delay to its planned strike action, which had been scheduled to take place from 15-19 June 2026. This would have followed the three rounds of five-day strike action that took place in 2025 (25-30 July, 14-19 October and 17-22 December 2025). In total, the BMA has spearheaded 16 rounds of walkouts since 2023, in protest against what they perceive as long-term pay erosion, and substandard working conditions. The government has

This country has a long tradition of policing by consent. The police are expected to act proportionately, they are expected to assume that people are innocent until proven guilty. They are not permitted to take sides in a dispute, and they are certainly not there to handcuff people who pose no physical threat and are not resisting arrest. The police are trained to use controlled and reasonable force. There is no expectation that police should manhandle and handcuff an individ

Angela Rayner has been accused of "openly lying", and of promoting partisan political views to schoolchildren, in contravention of The Education Act 1996. In a clip shared by Rayner on her social media (which she has since deleted following the backlash it received), when addressing a group of schoolchildren about Nigel Farage and Reform UK, the former deputy prime minister is seen telling the youngsters that Mr Farage would make people pay for the NHS, despite the fact that

The second "Unite the Kingdom" rally took place on Saturday, May 16, 2026, in central London. Organised by activist Tommy Robinson, official estimates of attendance at the march were approximately 50,000-60,000, although many in attendance on the day have suggested that official estimates understated the real figure, with some speculating this to be a deliberate attempt by authorities and left-wing media groups to undermine the impact and significance of the event, in order t

On May 7th 2026, Approximately 1/3 of eligible voters had the opportunity to take to the polls in the latest local government elections, and have their voices heard. The results were predictable, but no less damning for this deeply unpopular Labour government, that has seen it’s 20 months in office marred by scandal, hypocrisy and an unprecedented fall in public opinion since winning it’s “loveless landslide” in July 2024. In England, Reform won 1,372 new council seats, takin

The Green Party has won the Gorton and Denton by-election, with Hannah Spencer taking the seat from Labour in the Greens' first ever Westminster by-election victory. Labour, which took the Greater Manchester seat with more than 50% of the vote in 2024, was pushed into third place behind Reform UK - a result which will increase the pressure on Sir Keir Starmer's leadership. This is the second by-election since Labour's general election victory in 2024 and the party's second lo

With the Autumn budget looming in the near distance, and fear abounding over the inevitable threat of yet more tax rises being imposed by this banal and clueless Labour government, postulations are rife amongst commentators regarding exactly which areas will be hit the hardest. Ideas floated by Treasury thinktanks include changes to Capital Gains Tax, ISAs, pensions, and even the possibility of raising Income Tax or National Insurance, in what would represent a clear breach o
