I wonder what Jesus would say about choosing to plunge 250,000+ disabled people into poverty rather than making billionaires pay tax 🤔
Do Kier Starmer's words mean anything to anyone? I think not! He is a snake saying one thing one day and the opposite the next. Persecuted Christians in Jerusalem and Gaza especially the Al Alhi Baptist Hospital, bombed by Israel at the start of the war and again over the past days. Christ taught us to love one another but our Government together with those despicable idiots in the States have only been spreading persecution and war in order for their friends to get rich selling weapons of war.
Fantastic to welcome James Murray, Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, to Coalville yesterday and to showcase our proud industrial heritage.
A huge thank you to our former miners for taking the time to meet with James before we headed out to speak to local residents with our brilliant candidate Rebecca Pawley for Coalville North!
