Last week the commander of border security could not give any examples of Brexit helping secure our borders and the DG of the B of E said that Brexit would have a negative effect for the foreseeable future. 🤦‍♂️

It’s time to undo the damage for a better future.

New figures by the Bank of England demonstrate how much of a negative impact Brexit has had on the UK economy. Trade weakness combined with uncertainty has decreased our GDP, Investment, Employment, and Productivity, resulting in a negative decline for the UK compared to our European neighbours.

Sewage was dumped into the Mersey 1,900 times in 2024. Since leaving the EU, the UK has slipped on water and air standards while Europe pushes ahead with tougher protections.

Exactly what I'm talking about. Starmer should be hanging Farage out to dry, telling him the delays and checks are down to his Brexit.
Go after Farage. Let him defend Britons being exposed to EES and Etias.

Brilliant street stall in Twickenham yesterday. Over and over, people said that #Brexit was a disaster.

So inspiring to see young people showing strong support for the EU at the High Tide Festival in Twickenham.
They never chose #Brexit, but they’re choosing hope, unity, and a better future. 🇪🇺

No one born this century voted for Brexit. Time to listen to the future. #RejoinEU

A clear target of leading the UK into a new customs union with the EU by 2030 could be truly transformative. There’s no doubt the public will is there to make it happen. The question is: will Keir Starmer seize the moment and deliver it?
