Brexit is dead but the body still lies rotting in our living rooms. Get rid of it. Death by 1000 Brexit ameliorations is still death.

Farmers welcome news that UK will align with EU food rules The UK government has today announced that, to cut red tape and costs for importing and exporting with the EU, the UK will align with EU Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) legislation.

How long will it take those imbeciles at the Mail and Torygraph to scream โ€œbetrayalโ€? Farmers on the other hand welcome news that UK will align with most EU Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) legislation to reduce crippling costs caused by Brexit

Two points:

1. Theyโ€™re not โ€œexpatsโ€ theyโ€™re โ€œmigrants.โ€

2. Them abandoning their pets will hopefully give each and every one of these people just a little bit of insight into the incredibly hard decisions refugees have to make when theyโ€™re fleeing war zones.

Further confirmation of what Trump keeps denying and what Hegseth won't admit to. It was the U.S. that struck that girlsโ€™ school.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Poland believes Epstein was being run as a Russian intelligence asset with the goal of acquiring Kompromat on important people in western countries. This is the heart of the matter. Putin has kompromat on Trump. Remember the look on Trumpโ€˜s face after the Helsinki meeting with Putin. Shellshocked
