If Labour put 10% as much effort into calling out Brexit as they do punching down at immigrants we'd already be negotiating to rejoin the EU.

Brexit only lacks importance for most voters because of the conspiracy of silence across politics and the media to not connect Brexit-related problems to it.

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch today launches her campaign for “Free Speech” in the UK, taking her lead from Musk.

A reminder that “Free Speech” is Right Wing code for the freedom to cause harm by saying racist, misogynistic or homophobic things in public without consequence.

1. Trump and his Death Eaters cannot tolerate any rival power. Europe, when united, is a major trading and diplomatic bloc. They see Russia (much less of a threat to US hegemony) as an excellent instrument for breaking up Europe, by threat or by force.🧵

Starmer cuts short Buckinghamshire visit after farmers stage noisy tractor protest

Yet again, if these were climate protestors, there'd have been multiple arrests, with some facing years in jail for "public nuisance". But farmers can block the road and drown out the Prime Minister and the police won't touch them.

Ofcom, stop GB News broadcasting hate *CW: Homophobia, hate speech GB News is no stranger to spouting hatred and toxic lies. They take pride in it, and pretend the rules don’t matter. But they do. And they must be enforced. On 22 January,...

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom :point_down: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

‘Brexit problem’: UK tap water safety at risk after testing labs shut down Exclusive: EU countries will share laboratory capacity but UK rules mean products cannot be tested abroad

“But UK rules mean products cannot be tested abroad; they have to be tested in the country in a certified lab of which there are now none.”

I mean… ffs…

Brexit never gets any less idiotic or ruinous, does it?

Jacob Rees-Mogg says there were 9 million economically inactive in 2010 and now in 2024 it is 9.25 million

So what he's saying is that the Conservative party who ran the country for 14 years were unable to make active the 9 odd million who are, for whatever reason, inactive

“It is beyond surreal that someone writes in a national newspaper that Liz Truss was a genius and Keir Starmer should walk the plank.”

@mrjamesob.bsky.social believes that Brexiteers are ‘still not ready to admit their mistake’ and so their response is to ‘overthrow the Government'.

Vauxhall-maker warns Brexit may force it to close UK factory Vauxhall-maker Stellantis is calling on the government to renegotiate some Brexit rules or risk losing electric

Sky news post: Badenoch “Does the PM stand by his promise to ban the sale of petrol cars even if more jobs will be lost?” Starmer: “The EV mandate was introduced by the last govt. She (Badenoch) was the business secretary that introduced it.”

We used to say, “There’s always a tweet…”
But nowadays it might be better to say,
“There’s always a Tory policy….”

Honest to god. Do these people have the faintest clue what they actually did in government? Because they’re certainly making complete tits of themselves in opposition.

Hello new friends 👋

Wait, let’s get this right Nigel Farage.

Farm inheritance tax (of 20%) for over £1m is planned to clear space for housing immigrants AND is retribution for Thatcher’s busting of the coal mining unions?

Are you ok Nigel?

We need to #rejoin the EU if we are ever going to be a significant player on the global stage again
