Jonny Bairstow gives dithering cops a lesson by carrying eco-lout pitch-invader off Lords ground
Caught Bairstow
JONNY Bairstow won’t be short of work after his glittering cricket career.

Seeing him sweep up a Just Stop Oiler and deposit him over the Lords boundary without him touching the ground was as exhilarating as any of his sixes.
What a lesson from this no-nonsense Yorkshireman to our dithering cops.
For years they have pathetically enabled the eco cult’s road-blocking stunts, insisting they had too few powers to prevent them.
They now have those — but our capital still seems at the louts’ mercy.

What excuse do police have now? The public wants action, Bairstow-style.
Millions loathe the protesters’ sociopathic arrogance, their ignorance, their facile slogans and deranged exaggerations, their cowardly focus on UK emissions, their left-wing activism dressed up as environmental concern . . . not to mention the simple injustice of their criminality going largely unpunished.

WE’VE seen it all now: Hard-left union activists campaigning for £128,000-a-year hospital consultants to extract a huge pay rise from the NHS.
We thought they championed the poor, not doctors with million-pound homes.
One typical senior BMA figure claims Brexit was secretly orchestrated by Russia, that it “enabled racists” and that non-woke people are “pond life”.
This judgmental conspiracist crank is, God help us, an NHS surgeon.
Next month the public will mark the health service’s 75th birthday.
Just as the Corbynite union representing its best-paid medics gets busy sabotaging it by striking for even more money.
Killers clamp
FATHERS jailed for murdering their partners must lose any power over their children automatically.
They have robbed them of a mother.
Why should they retain control after that? Yet this is not clear-cut in law.
Which enables Russell Marsh, serving 25 years for knifing his ex Jade Ward, to thwart their kids’ passport applications.
The Government says it hopes to accelerate the process by which bereaved families apply to restrict murderers’ powers.

That’s not good enough.
