Wouldn't it be in UK's best interests to become part of the EU, or at least the customs union, again?
It does seem as if people are noticing there are no Brexit Benefits: only problems, and polls show a majority to rejoin.
2/12 There is a reason why Putin, Musk, Trump, Vance, Thiel, and Xi all spend fortunes to attack Brussels.

They do not hate the EU because it fails.

They hate it because of its potential.

Our unity is their nightmare

Femi’s final point that “ if you don’t get involved in politics these are the people who will be running your life” ( referring to the Farage supporter) should be a call to action for any decent tolerant person.

It seems odd to me that a Labour government should be be squeezing their potential core voters.
The Government is raising taxes on median earners (and low earners) by continuing the Tory freeze on tax thresholds. Such people should be paying less, not more tax!
Raising taxes on median earners would not only be a 'tough choice,' it would be an extremely bad one.

My only similar joke is "What's the trouble with Political Jokes? They get elected"
Q. How many Labour MPs does it take to change a light bulb?
A. 80, but they can’t find a spare bulb.

I think this is quite correct: what I hear on the street is "why can't the politicians work to solve our problems: not just fight each other". Hopefully a more proportionate voting system would help. MakeVotesMatter.

one option some elder people with money are doing is going to live in care villages in Thailand or Philippines. Their £ buys them better care and nicer weather. I don’t think it is a mass solution, but it needs to be considered. Rwanda might take OAPs for £: not sure how many would go,.

There is however,a danger of having too much of a good thing, or changing too fast for people adjust to.

Yeah, but, you know, “tough choices”.
The key part here is how cozy they all are with the wealthy and the press magnates. Would be awkward to upset them when it’s time for dinner in town.
Tough Choices!
