Comment was taken out of context. The older parties must really be desperate as May elections loom.

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has been criticised by rival parties for describing Welsh people as "foreign speakers" in a paid-for video message

Farage made the comment in a recorded greeting where he said he was "gutted" to be unable to attend a wedding because half of the number of guests were Welsh

Labour, Plaid Cymru, the Conservatives and other parties criticised Farage's video, which was supplied via the Cameo video platform through which celebrities record messages for a fee

A spokesperson for Farage said the videos "should not be treated as political statements or campaign activity"

Labour Party of scandals, lack of moral compass.

Palantir was a client of Global Counsel while Mandelson was heavily involved with the firm. The firm reportedly aimed to help Palantir secure UK government contracts.

The Washington Visit (2025): While acting as the UK’s ambassador to the US, Mandelson facilitated a visit by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer to Palantir’s Washington D.C. offices in February 2025. This meeting was not fully recorded in official registers🤪, raising transparency concerns, particularly as it occurred while Palantir was still a client of Global Counsel.

Public Contracts: Palantir has won substantial UK government contracts, including a £240 million Ministry of Defence (MoD) contract in late 2025 (awarded without a competitive tender) and a major role in the NHS Federated Data Platform.

Conflict of Interest Concerns: Did Mandelson use his position as ambassador to aid his lobbying client, Palantir, in securing these deals?

The Epstein Connection: The scandal erupted alongside revelations of Mandelson’s past, close connections to Jeffrey Epstein, which led to a police investigation and scrutiny of his suitability for the ambassador role.

Just to remind us Starmer is worried about our energy bills.
What is ‘working class’ Keir Starmer’s net worth these days?

Removing fuel duty and VAT would immediately reduce the cost of fuel at the pump for families. Such move would remove up to 11p per litre in tax-on-tax charges, with potential savings of £250 plus, per year per driver. Yeah families are very worried but Starmer talked and talked about …..😑

🚨 Has actually taken nearly 2 years

In May 2024, Jennifer Melle, 41, from south London, who is being supported by the Christian Legal Centre, was removed from her ward, disciplined, and threatened with dismissal after reporting that she had been repeatedly racially abused and physically threatened by a convicted male pa******le patient who wanted to identify as a woman.

Despite being the victim of the incident, Jennifer found herself treated as though she was the criminal and was reported to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) as a ‘potential risk’ to the public for not using the pa******le’s preferred gender identity.

After taking legal action and speaking to the media in March 2025 about what had happened to her, Jennifer was suspended and marched out of St Helier hospital in tears for an alleged ‘data breach, which saw her reported to the NMC for a second time😕.

Following an internal investigation, Jennifer was summoned to a disciplinary hearing in December 2025 where it was expected she would be dismissed.

After intense media scrutiny and a dramatic political intervention from the Shadow Equalities Minister, Rt. Hon Claire Coutinho, the Trust postponed the hearing due to ‘unforeseen circumstances’.

As well as pressure on St Helier and Epsom University Hospitals NHS Trust, Jennifer’s case was raised on the floor of the House of Commons and Women and Equalities Minister, Bridget Phillipson, agreed to meet Jennifer.

The Trust re-scheduled the disciplinary hearing for the new year and a cross-party petition calling for Jennifer to not be sacked was launched.

On 20 January, in a dramatic reversal, following the disciplinary hearing, the Trust dropped the data‑breach allegation against her, conclude she had done nothing wrong and confirmed she could return to work.

Nevertheless, the Trust has still not apologised to Jennifer for the distress caused.

Despite her return to work, her case is far from over. Supported by the Christian Legal Centre, she will continue to pursue her claims at a full employment tribunal scheduled for April 2026 in Croydon, where she alleges harassment, discrimination, victimisation, and breaches of freedom of thought, conscience, and religion.

She also continues to face two active NMC fitness‑to‑practise investigations, one relating to the alleged “misgendering,” and the other to her speaking publicly about her experience.

Earlier this month, she met with the Women and Equalities Minister and Health Minister, Karin Smyth, in Parliament. During the meeting, the ministers confirmed that no nurse in the NHS should be compelled to use someone’s preferred pronouns, adding further weight to the national significance of her case.

Is the UK slipping away?

According to the NHS, correct pronouns is a fundamental sign of respect and essential for supporting the mental health of transgender and non-binary individuals. On the face of it, is this an over correction or merely evolving to be more inclusive?
