🚨 Masks had "no statistical impact." So why are they being pushed again? 😷

📉 From the Government’s own data to the "gold standard" Cochrane review, the evidence is clear: community masking didn't change the infection curves. The ONS even found "no significant difference" in infection risk between those who always wore masks and those who never did.

🏥 Yet, mandates are quietly returning to the NHS—forcing staff into 12-hour shifts in PPE despite proven physical and cognitive strain.

🧠 We need to follow the evidence, not the "vibes."

The data says no, but the dogma says yes. Inside the quiet return of mask mandates in the NHS.

🚨 New: The £1.5bn Bribe: Why You Are Paying to Fix a Crisis the Government Created

🩼 They break your legs, hand you a crutch, and expect a round of applause.

💷 Ministers have just announced a £1.5 billion scheme to create 50,000 apprenticeships.

📉 But the official payroll data shows their own policies have already destroyed 77,000 youth jobs since the election.

🏗️ They are essentially using taxpayer money to try and clean up the mess caused by the 'Jobs Tax' and huge wage hikes.

⚖️ It’s not a strategy. It’s a partial refund on a policy disaster.

👇 See the full data breakdown here:

With 77,000 jobs lost and hiring costs soaring, the government’s £1.5bn scheme is a desperate attempt to buy back what they destroyed.

🚨 BREAKING: Afghan national charged with ra**ng two 14-year-old girls in Bolton.

Sultani Bakatash, 28, has been charged with two counts of r**e and sexual assault after allegedly meeting the victims online.

This is becoming too frequent a headline.

🚨 It’s been another week where the official narrative from the government has collided head-on with the cold, hard numbers.

In this week's Stat of the Nation, I’m breaking down three major stories where the data tells a very different truth to the spin we are being sold. 🔍

💷 First, the economic narrative is crumbling. The "black hole" they told you necessitated tax hikes on workers turns out to be largely a myth. I dig into the new OBR data that reveals where that money is really going—funding a massive welfare spending spree, not "fixing the foundations." 📉

⚖️ Second, while distracted by the Budget, David Lammy is taking aim at the justice system. He is dusting off failed policies from 1999 to scrap jury trials to "fix backlogs". The data shows he is fixing the wrong part of a broken machine. More importantly, they have zero democratic mandate to remove this vital check on state power—it was never mentioned before the election. ⚠️

📺 Finally, I joined Mike Graham on his new show. We dissected this growing "Blair 2.0" agenda—from ID cards to jury raids—and asked who is really running the show. (We also named a very deserving Plank of the Week 🪵).

Get the full data-driven breakdown of all three stories here:

Tearing apart the Budget, challenging Lammy's jury raid, and naming our Plank of the Week with Mike Graham.

📉 The most damaging part of last week's Budget isn't the tax - It's the deception.

🎭 Reeves manufactured a crisis.

🤔 If she’ll lie to take your money, why trust her to spend it.

👵 She scared pensioners into withdrawing savings.

💥 She panicked the markets.

Trust gone!

🚨| New - The Great British Betrayal: How a Fake Crisis Justified a Real Tax Raid

🏚️ For weeks, Reeves' told us the "cupboard was bare."
⚫ She told us the "black hole" left her no choice.

🤥 It was all a lie.

📂 New OBR files prove the books actually BALANCED before the Budget.

⚖️ Wage growth had already filled the gap. There was no crisis.

🤔 So why did Labour raise taxes by £26bn anyway?
💰 To fund a£32bn spending spree that has nothing to do with fixing the economy.

📉 Labour manufactured a crisis to take your money.

New OBR data reveals the "Fiscal Black Hole" was a myth used to justify record taxes, while British workers are raided to fund a welfare spending spree.

🚨 | New - Lammy Resurrects Blair’s Failed Plan: 12 Jurors vs The Opinion Of One

⚖️ The Government wants to speed up justice by removing your right to a jury trial for "mid-level" offences. They say it’s efficient.

But statistically, relying on a single judge creates a "single point of failure."

🚫 If that one judge is tired, distracted, or biased, there is no one to correct them.

Look at the case of Jamie Michael. 👇

He was charged with stirring up racial hatred for an angry Facebook video after the Southport murders.

👨‍⚖️ A judge, looking purely at the letter of the law, could easily have convicted him.

👥 A jury looked at the man—a grieving father venting frustration—and acquitted him in less than an hour.

That is the difference. A jury applies community standards. A judge applies a textbook.

David Lammy wants to remove that protection to solve a backlog caused by R**e and Murder cases—crimes that this reform won't even touch.

👇 https://www.statsjamie.co.uk/p/lammy-resurrects-blairs-failed-plan

Tony Blair tried and failed to limit jury trials in 1999. Now David Lammy is bringing the idea back. But new data proves he is fixing the wrong part of the system.

🚨 The Mike Graham Show is back — and Labour’s Budget falls apart under the numbers.

I joined Mike on the launch episode to break it all down:

💷 £92bn overspend in just two months
📉 170,000 jobs lost since the election
📉 Growth stalling and the public sector propping up GDP
🛂 54,000 asylum seekers are missing
🤦‍♂️ And yes — we chose our Plank of the Week

It’s great to see Mike back — and I’ll be appearing on the show regularly.

We break down why Labour’s Budget doesn’t add up, expose the chaos behind the numbers — and reveal our Plank of the Week.

🚨 New - Reeves ‘Lies’? Taxes Hit Record Highs — and 53,000 Illegal Migrants Vanish

This is what we have learned this week.

• 53,000 people unaccounted for
• Asylum hotel use is rising again
• Young Brits leaving the UK in record numbers
• Non-EU immigration continuing to rise

• OBR letters show Reeves had more headroom than she claimed
• Government revives trials without juries
• £1.8bn Digital ID rollout quietly announced
• COP30 ends with emissions up 60% since the first summit

A Government losing control of borders, public finances, and honesty.

🚨 New: 53,000 illegal migrants are missing — and net migration is STILL double the levels Britain saw in the 1980s & 1990s.

A leaked Home Office document shows tens of thousands have absconded from bail or detention. At the same time, 36,273 illegal migrants are now in hotels — hotel use is rising again, not falling.

And even though net migration has dropped, that fall is only because of visa rules brought in under the previous government. The system itself is not under control.

Meanwhile:
➡️ More Brits and EU nationals are leaving than arriving
⬅️ Non-EU migration continues to drive population growth
📈 Asylum-related immigration is up, not down

The headline “fall” in migration hides the real story: Britain’s border system is still failing on every front.

Full analysis 👇

Absconding, hotel dependence and non-EU inflows expose a system shifting pressure, not solving problems.

🚨 “If we had digital ID, would these 53,000 suddenly reappear? Of course not.”

🗨️ My interview with Julia Hartley-Brewer after 53,000 illegal migrants vanished.

💥 Digital ID doesn’t stop illegal work or illegal immigration.
Plenty of countries have it — the problem still happens.

✈️ Process offshore and deport on arrival.
It’s the only deterrent that actually works.
