“Put bluntly, net migration fell because 400,000 fewer foreigners arrived, and 200,000 more foreigners left the UK. This is precisely what Reform, the Mail, and the new, nastier Tory Party have claimed – again and again – they wanted to happen. And now that it has, they have ignored it entirely.”
The crazy right will never be satisfied about migration
Keir Starmer slashed net migration as the Mail and Farage demanded - and still got hammered for it

1. The European Parliament’s attempt to ban plant-based foods from being sold as “sausages”, “burgers” etc is a direct response to livestock industry lobbying. This is a short thread on how utterly bleeding ridiculous it is. 🧵1/6

The UK can't let go of the US like a drug addict can't let go of crack cocaine or heroine. The UK is fatally addicted. It will end up in a coma and on life support one day.

🚨The governments controversial plan to scrap jury trials for crimes with sentences of less than 3 years is a huge mistake, will make little or no difference to the backlog and will undermine and restrict one of the fundamental cornerstones of our democracy

We are ruled by an out of touch political class who have turned their backs on our country.
Reform is the alternative”

Farage rarely turned up to vote when he was an MEP.
But, he did turn up to vote against the EU’s anti-Russia interference motion.
He said it was a “hoax”.
He voted against strengthening Europe’s defences against foreign interference.
