By Joe Mellor, Deputy Editor In 2015 there were 44,722,000 registered to vote down from 45,325,100 the previous year. The Office for National Statistics has shown that 603,000 less people are now able to vote in elections. This drastic reduction has led to claims that the Conservative party is trying to “rig the system.” The 1.3 per cent fall has come after a change in the way voters put themselves on the electoral register. Supporters of the shake-up have argued...

VIDEO – “Put on a proper suit!” PM Chooses to Abuse Corbyn at PMQs

By Ben Ramanauskas                                          Islamic State, the jihadist group which has attempted to establish an islamic caliphate in the Middle East, is undoubtedly one of the most disgusting and disturbing groups ever to exist.

Heathrow and Europe: Boris Johnson’s Career Ending Moves

This summer could well be the end of Boris Johnson. If Britain votes to stay in the EU and plans for Heathrow expansion get the go-ahead from the PM, there is arguably no way back for the Uxbridge and South Ruislip MP who has spent a large chunk of his political career campaigning against both issues.
