These are the strongest comments yet from the EU on the topic, and it's great to hear that they are open to us rejoining the Customs Union. We hope that the Government takes action soon to repair our trade ties with Europe.

VERY telling and DEEPLY suspicious that none of the mainstream media/press are saying a dickie bird about this. Logical conclusion can only be that they're complicit in some way, benefiting in some way and have had promises made to them. What other possible reason can there be?

Another great investigative piece from @bylinetimes.bsky.social

Tommy Robinson was hired as a “goodwill ambassador” for an unregistered charity fronting a secretive Russian propaganda network that worked directly for Putin’s administration, & has ties to a sanctioned Russian state-linked oil giant

The difference between the president and I is that I was raised to be a decent human being, and my faith teaches me to have compassion.

He lacks both of those things.

The fact that Trump has given seats on his 'Board of Peace' to Netanyahu & Putin, both of whom have arrest warrants outstanding for crimes against humanity & war crimes, tells you everything you need to know.

Also, proving his disdain for democracy, Trump will remain the Chair until he dies

Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

For well over a decade, Nigel Farage criticised Davos and just two years ago criticised Starmer for going and calling him a

"full-on globalist, hanging out with his mates at the World Economic Forum."

So, question. Where do you think Nigel Farage is going today?

This meme is from 2016 yet it’s never been more apt.

It should now be blatantly obvious, even to those who voted for it; Brexit only benefited those who wish to see us weakened and divided.

Any resemblance to a genuine political recruitment advert is entirely coincidental, and deeply regrettable

The far right obsession with London is vital in their playbook. People who don’t live there are told constantly it’s a crime ridden hell hole with no go areas. It’s just not true on every measure - it’s a hugely successful and multicultural city, and that’s why they hate it.
Khan: "[London is] one of the safest.. cities in the world when it comes to homicide. We're safer than Paris, Milan, Rome, Brussels, Berlin.. two and half times safer than NY, 5 times safer than LA, 12 times safer than Chicago.. those that spread lies have a problem with London"

🔥🇪🇺 “Europeans enjoy more free time than Americans, a higher life expectancy and lower levels of inequality – all with roughly comparable productivity.

Whichever way you look at it, this is a significantly superior economic performance.”

There is a widespread view that, by comparison with the USA, Europe is in economic and social decline. But, Zucman argues, it's not true
