As Starmer bleats in public he's trying to get a "deal" with the EU he's stabbing us in the back.
He's folding to US pharmaceuticals as badly as he folded to the social media monopolies.
The man is a coward and a cheat rubbing our noses in shit.

1๏ธโฃ The pharma deal is beginning of a much larger U.S. takeover of UK standards.
Trump officials explicitly say pharma is:
โthe first dominoโ, โproof UK will move quickly to align with U.S. regulatory normsโ
That alone is devastating.

Farageโs Glasgow Dog Whistle
Reform UKโs attack on the children of Glasgow may at first seem an oddity, a bizarre lurch even for them. But, in fact, it has direct continuity with some of their most extreme views, many ofโฆ
Following revelations that he racially tormented ethnic-minority pupils at school in the 1970s, Nigel Farage is now making racist dogwhistles about Glasgow schoolchildren. @bellacaledonia.bsky.social

Why Donโt Norwegians Hate Tesla Like the Rest of Europe Does?
Novemberโs Tesla registrations were down in France, Sweden, Denmark, and Germany. Norway, however, is bucking the trendโthanks to a tax incentive system that will soon be rolled back.

Text of graphic in Shabana Mahmood's tweet:
NEW POWERS TO TACKLE ILLEGAL MIGRATION
Illegal migrants to have their phones seized and mouths searched for SIM cards to help secure intel and arrest smugglers
Ban on deadly makeshift and modified vehicle compartments used to smuggle migrants into the UK
Up to five year prison sentences for those who view, access or download material on building small boats, sourcing engine parts or obtaining documents to plan illegal migrant journeys
The UK has gone quite, quite mad.
It's ridiculous that we (just about) survived 14 years of the Tories, only for Labour to allow the madness to take hold and spread.
Some of the stuff in those bullets is just breath-takingly evil.
And it's not winning Labour ANY votes. Just helping Reform.

UK mulls ban on crypto cash in politics โ putting Farage in firing line
Nigel Farageโs Reform UK was the first U.K. political party to accept donations in cryptocurrency โ and now the government is considering a ban.

I wish I was surprised. Buried in this Budget is a plan to slash the Digital Services Tax, giving a multi-billion tax cut to US tech giants and the likes of Elon Musk.
That's right, cutting taxes for the world's richest man while hiking them for millions of hard-working Brits.

PM slams Brexit 'wild promises' and takes swipe at Reform's 'corrosive' attitude
In his annual foreign policy address in the City of London, Keir Starmer said the UKโs place on the world stage had been restored under the Labour government
Starmer: โBrexit vote was a fair, democratic expression, and I .. respect that .. But how it was sold and delivered was simply wrong. Wild promises were madeโ
If the result was obtained by misselling, then it was not an informed decision and hence not democratic.
