Here's what's happening ...
1. Starmer's hopes of a cherry-picked reset have collapsed under EU demands.
2. The EU is taking us to court to make us fulfil our obligations in the Brexit deal.
3. Some obligations, like border checks on EU food, can NEVER be introduced by us because then we'd starve!

That’s good. But what about those of us who have learnt (ie. Went to uni and got degrees) but are not earning. Some of us don’t even have a job in our industry.

And there it is.

Netanyahu's govt has put sanctions on the Israeli newspaper Haaretz for its criticisms of Israel's behaviour.

Sanctions include prohibiting all public institutions from communicating with the paper.

This profoundly undermines democracy.
