We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

That's how it should be done. No room for misinterpretation here.

Kinnock tells Starmer to consider rejoining the EU to tackle small boats crisis Lord Kinnock says he understand it would not be easy but ‘if we really want sustained economic growth, we have to be part of a body of the single market with our nearest neighbours’

👏👏 Former Labour leader Neil Kinnock has told Sir Keir Starmer it is “time to look at rejoining” the EU to ease the country’s economic woes and get a grip on small boat crisis.

Kinnock, led Labour 1983 to 1992, said UK could no longer afford the “huge self-inflicted losses” created by leaving EU

I don't think Peter Mandelson is PM's biggest problem. The biggest problem is not standing up to the literal violent racism on our streets, supercharged by the richest man in the world, and threatening the very fabric of our society. If he and so many commentators can't see this, we're truly lost.

This is the story of the summer... and apparently autumn too. 🙄

Quite.

Yep. No hesitation here. 👍🏻

Excellent. I was there earlier in the year. They're deeply European but with a British twist. Few in the UK understand or care about them, so it's best they 'take back control' of their own destiny. Good luck Gibraltar. 👍🏻
#Spanglish

Exactly this. 👍🏻

Meanwhile, our PM has allowed the far right to operate barely challenged. BBC reporting has normalised the hate. Get a grip Keir, show some leadership.

This obnoxious weirdo can absolutely do one with his poisonous little take on what the British people think.
He lost the right to appropriate our opinions when he foisted his prejudiced and dishonest Brexit shitshow on us and told us that’s what we wanted.
Reform is the grim hangover of that failure

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell.

Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass.

That, right there, is the problem.

Exactly this.

Hitler was popular... and voted in.

🙄🙄🙄

I'm astonished Frog face rarely gets this level of obvious challenge in the UK. The last person you do it was James O'Brien some years ago, I guess Farage avoids him now? 😆 Prior to that it was Tony Blair 20 years ago. The rest of the media just fawn over him.

Quite. They'd rather rip Angela Rayner to bits for something actually quite minor.
BBC news toes the right wing line always.

Nigel Farage and US congressman clash on freedom of speech The Reform UK leader has appeared before the US House Judiciary Committee to discuss freedom of speech and online safety laws.

Finally, the BBC have covered it. Quietly of course... www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Trump’s anti-press tactics are bad enough in the US. Now Reform is importing them to the Midlands | Jon Allsop Nottinghamshire council has borrowed the US president’s playbook – but may soon find that it needs the media more than it thought, says journalist Jon Allsop

Farage claims to defend 'free speech' and is heading to the US to discuss the matter with Team MAGA, but back home, Nottinghamshire’s Reform-led council is imposing a ban on the Nottingham Post because they don't like what they are saying. Hypocrisy off the scale, straight out of Trump's playbook.

Exactly that! 😆👍🏻

Fine, leave the flags in place. Now put up EU, Pride, CND etc next to them. Freedom of speech and expression! Oh? They don't like that? Too bad...😉😆

Kind of hoping the first PMQs makes lots of references to the far-right activity that's taken place over the summer, and inviting a certain party leader to condemn it -oh, he's not here? Is he helping another exponentially of the far-right?

Yes, I'm with you here, it's an odd thing to cheer, but so glad Reform didn't get it.

Incredible to think you can win an election based on 28% of a vote where only 35% bothered to turn out. Circa 10% of the eligible population choosing a leader*.

(*It's not at all unusual)

Excellent show Ed. Beautifully balanced with varying opinions.

Personally, I'm cool with your non-attendance at the banquet the reasons stated. Attending would achieve nothing aside mild acquiescence. Staying away brings Gaza into the national conversation, 👍🏻 mission already accomplished via #LBC

Absolutely this!

Excellent. 👍🏻

Reform council’s Nottingham Post ban a ‘massive attack on local democracy’ Nottinghamshire council’s administration says it will no longer deal with local paper, in unprecedented move

Ahh transparent governance and all that guff... 🙄 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

In Melton Mowbray, they're so daft they sprayed red paint on red road humps 😆

Not somewhere I'd choose to live.

Reform UK says Notts Live ban is 'one for local group to explain' The unprecedented ban means we are banned from speaking to the county council leader and any of his party colleagues

Run away! Run away!

Excellent, I turned off this morning as soon as I twigged it was Cleverly. Not interested.

Looking forward to hearing you Ed.

Please could the Brexit disaster be discussed? It's the key to growing the economy.

I see Lee Anderson is being a charmer again. 🙄

The Nottingham Post, linked with the online version Nott'm Live, is the paper for the City, -has been for a century. Reform doesn't want a free press or scrutiny.
Hoping for the Streisand effect and the council is scrutinised mercilessly.

Voting for Nigel Farage would be like asking the captain of the Titanic to reverse back over the iceberg because it hasn’t done quite enough damage yet.
