Two decades together.
With the enlargement of 2004, we became a bigger and stronger political, economic and cultural Union – creating more opportunities for citizens across the EU.
This wasn’t just the birth of a larger Union; it was the birth of a new era.

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear.

This man sows hate, lies and division.

He is a grifter and a conman.

He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

Repost if you agree

P.s. multiculturalism is great.

New Christmas lights just went up in Clacton.

(Farage is still the MP who makes most money from second jobs. By a long way.)

Here's Emma Dabiri making exactly this point. The Tory pattern is "cuts creating problems" then "division to mask problems". It is relevant, because it is STILL their strategy. But god forbid a guest links two subjects with a theme. The interruptions from FB took longer than the point. ~AA #BBCQT

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says the public want to leave the ECHR

Let him know he’s wrong by sharing this widely
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says

“We need to leave the ECHR so we can deport people that come illegally & take back control of our borders & that’s what the public wants”

Share if you disagree with his populist boll**** the UK should join Russia & Belarus outside the ECHR

Please retweet if you want the Labour government to do its utmost to restore the Freedom of Movement that was robbed from us by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.

Beth Rigby, very indignantly "You think Wealthy Landowners need to pay more tax."

How privatisation works (and Thames Water is just the latest example).
1. A government takes a national asset built up with taxpayers' money and the work of public servants over many years, and hands it, for a fraction of its value, to a private company.
2. In doing so, it creates a monopoly.
