BREXIT. NUMBER CRUNCHING 0.08% Expected growth by 2038 from 'Brexit win' of Trans-Pacific CPTPP trade deal 0.08% Expected growth by 2035 from Australia trade deal 0.07% Expected growth by 2035 from CEPA trade deal with Japan 0.03% Expected growth by 2035 from New Zealand trade deal -4% Long-term loss of growth caused by the Brexit that enabled these 'wins'

This is nonsense in relation to Beatrice and Eugenie. He insisted they be princesses. Princess Annes children are not Princes or Princesses nor are Edwards. Just further evidence of Andrews entitlement. B and E should also have their titles stripped.

It is interesting that Jeremy Corbyn has been an MP for 42 years and led the opposition for 5 years.
He's been on Question Time once.
Nigel Farage, 44 times.
Our Media is corrupt, corrupt to the core.
SHOCK POLL: NIGEL FARAGE WILL BE PM TOMORROW IN an amazing poll conducted by The Pointless Polling Company, it was revealed that voters' intentions may well change over the next three and a half years and at present it's 100 percent impossible to guess what the next government might look like. However, 99 percent of journalists agree that it would be much more fun if we had an election tomorrow and everybody resigned and everything was chaos and Farage had a go at being PM, just for the hell of it, because it was so much fun when Brexit happened and then the government kept falling every five minutes and we could write endless pieces about (cont. p94)
Private Eye offers up an excellently scornful commentary on the relentless polling. Itโs become ridiculous and has oversimplified our politics to dangerous levels of stupid and irresponsible.

Governor Tim Walz, "If youโve ever wondered how democracy dies, youโre witnessing it. This is North Korea style stuff"
"And itโs being done because this is a weak, thin-skinned man whoโs failing as a president"
"All of the things he promised are not happening"
"This is exactly what dictators do"
In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

Our response to Donald Trump is our response to the global rise of authoritarianism, fuelled by racism & money from US billionaires.
The silenced majority in Britain stands against Trump - now we stand UP!
Yesterday, the largest far-right protest in UK history marched through London, led by racist Tommy Robinson.
Today, we say: They donโt speak for us โ and they wonโt have the last word.
This Wednesday we come together against Trump and for a better future. Do everything to be there.
Wednesday's march in London against Trump's state visit is the opportunity to rally against right-wing extremism.
2pm Portland Place
5pm Parliament Square
Trump, MAGA, Musk, and their attacks on human rights, accountability, and the rule of law, aren't welcome here!
