LDM: 14% (=)

Looks like hoovering up a series of deeply unpopular, disgraced former Conservative ministers isn't quite the massive vote winning strategy that was predicted

‘Open goal’: Why readers think Brexit should define the next election Readers say Sir Keir Starmer’s plan to make Brexit the central election issue gives Labour a huge opportunity – but only

🇬🇧 Brits want a deeper relationship with the UK. And so do British businesses.

Acting against X and Musk looks like the biggest open goal for Keir Starmer it's possible to imagine

How bad is it for Russia on the frontlines? They launched an attack on Dobropillia today, led by men on horseback, followed by motorbikes and quads. Ukraine’s 1st Azov Corps wiped them all out in 2 hours with artillery and drones, as well as a bunch of armoured vehicles.

It’s the horses I feel for.

On 13Nov2026, Voyager 1 will have travelled 1 light-day from Earth!

Launched in 1977, Voyager 1 has been travelling thru space for nearly 5 decades! It has passed the outer planets of our solar system, crossed the heliopause (look it up!) and is now travelling through interstellar space. On 13Nov2026, it will have travelled 1 light-day from Earth! #science #space

Every year, over a million students study abroad through Erasmus+. They gain world-class experience, new perspectives, and lifelong friendships while learning in another European country. Erasmus+ makes international study possible for all - not just the wealthy.

Rejoining Eramsus+ would be a vital step in retaining Britain’s standing in the world and upholding the world renown of our universities. This cultural exchange was essential for cooperation in an increasingly interconnected world. It's time to restore our membership.

Net zero is one of the many areas where commentators are out-of-touch with public opinion in Britain. There is still broad support for cutting carbon emissions - except from among Reform supporters, who are the outliers.

The irony is that Denmark is very much in the EU. So it seems that we are now trying to replicate a EU member state in terms of border control and immigration policy…

Plant importers say border delays in Kent could drive up prices and stop deliveries from EU Traders report long waits at Sevington inspection post and claim trees and shrubs are repeatedly being damaged

Labour’s reset with the EU may solve this boring, costly nightmare for British businesses.
But EU-phobic Farage and Tories say they would rip that agreement up again.
What an utterly childish response to the damage they’ve done.

Have to say.. very tired of this now. We all know Brexit is a shitshow. Nothing is better. No one is happier.
No one who really cared about our country or understood how anything actually worked would do this and then stand around scratching their heads at the mess.

Not least Brexit, we’re all paying the price for that.

More than 150 lawyers and refugee NGOs report being ‘pressured into silence’ by far-right protesters At least two groups supporting UK asylum seekers have closed their offices after credible threats to their safety

“We urgently call for an end to the media narrative that is stoking the flames of division. Journalists and media outlets have a duty to act responsibly and with integrity, especially when it comes to their reporting, headlines and social media output.”

That’s exactly my thought on this too.

We’ve been banned from Reform Party events for two years now. Why does Nigel Farage lie to Congress about this? @bylinetimes.bsky.social @josiah.writes.news

Good to see this

Starmer urged to stand up to EU over tough holiday checks on Brits Keir Starmer was challenged to 'stand up' for Britain and fight tough new checks for UK citizens travelling to the EU.

The folks who wanted to leave the EU and end free movement - include Farage himself - chose this outcome and are fully responsible for it. And the Mail article repeats the "travel insurance" and "return ticket" falsehoods from the Times article.
