Brexit the Elephant is enjoying the New Years Eve fireworks in London.

“I hope they do that blue EU flag thing with the lights on the London Eye again”, he thought to himself mischievously.

“Let’s hope they notice me in 2026”

Brexit the Elephant wishes you all a fabulous Christmas and a Very Happy New Year.

“I wonder if 2026 will be the year we all rejoin the EU”, he wondered, hopefully.

Brexit the Elephant is exhausted and realises no one in Westminster actually wants to see him any more.

“They’re too busy making up excuses about why FOM is about small boats and why people don’t like immigrants”

“Perhaps they should actually ask people”, he lamented.

Brexit the Elephant decided to stand on the despatch box to see if Rachel Reeves would notice him as she read out her budget.

“I reckon she knows I’m here”.

“But they’re still pretending I’m not, though”, he lamented.

Brexit the Elephant had a fun day out in Oxford attending the @europeanmovement.co.uk AGM.

He wondered if he should apply to read PPE, Modern European Languages, or Banana Horticulture.

Thank you everyone who voted 🙏.

Brexit the Elephant thinks Lord Kinnock is probably right in his assessment.

“But I don’t live in the broom 🧹 cupboard”, he thought, also rather offended at being referred to as a ‘mammoth’. 😱

Brexit the Elephant is with Larry picking up a few ‘provisions’ for the Downing Street pantry.

“Food and living costs are so much more expensive since Brexit,” he reflected. 🍌 🐟 🍗 🥛

Larry sniffed suspiciously at the chicken because it was marked “Not for EU”.

Brexit the Elephant was having difficulty getting his paw to scan on the new EES machines at the airport.

“I wonder if it likes bananas,” he mused.

“After all, Brexit *is* bananas”, he reasoned, rather proud of his aptitude for logical reasoning.

Brexit the Elephant has been in the Palace of Westminster again this week to see if any British politician is able to see him yet.

“Doo-doo-doo… Come on and do the Conga” he hummed to himself. 🎵 🎶

Brexit the Elephant was wondering whether the new passport machine in Spain would accept his paw print 🐾.

And he was rather hoping that no one would ask him for an animal health certificate.

“Wouldn’t it have been much simpler to have stayed in the EU?”, he pondered.

“I wonder why, five years after Brexit, the British government still hasn’t tried to solve the 90-in-180-day problem”, wondered Brexit the Elephant

“Do you think they even notice the problems it causes?”

At the recent @therejoineuparty.com conference I was delighted to present on behalf of @savefom.bsky.social a keynote speech “Winning the Argument on Freedom of Movement”.

Delighted to see this now from @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Ending EU free movement a ‘disaster’ for Britain, says Green Party’s Zack Polanski The party’s new leader calls for the migration pact to be reinstated as he sets out his stall on Brexit.

Delighted to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social agrees with me and @savefom.bsky.social that restoring mutual Freedom of Movement of people should be a priority and a first stage in rebuilding relations with the EU.

Just fantastic. ♥️

As I took #BrexitTheElephant on a trip to Brussels I was thinking about the 90-in-180-day problem and how to help politicians understand it better.

At the end of the thread 🧵 below there are some ideas you could send to your MP if you want to help. (Or tag them).

Brexit the Elephant is very excited to be travelling to Brussels, capital of 🍺 Beer, Chips 🍟 and Chocolate 🍫 and of course one of the homes of the European Parliament 🇪🇺.

“I wonder if anyone will notice me in Brussels” he sighed.

…still feeling invisible in Westminster.
