Miserable old git, happily married, live in Leicestershire, worry about the environment, despise the Tories and that arsehole Farage.
Nothing says Christmas more than loads of adverts for gambling and bingo sites at 7 in the morning. It's what Jesus would have wanted.

🇪🇺 “In the long term, we need to rejoin the European Union.” 👉@ZackPolanski 👏

Finally, someone in politics saying what most young people already know: Britain’s future lies back in Europe.

Rejoin the customs union. Rebuild Erasmus. Restore freedom 👏 👏 👏

If Brexit is the reason for Rachel Reeves' tax rises and attacks on pensions, she can fix it by applying to #RejoinEU rather than continuing the #Brexit carnage. I will not support Labour a second time, even if it means handing Britain to NF.

Out tomorrow, Reboot Britain : Brexit RIP.

In case you missed it ...
Starmer and Blue Labour had plenty of warning about what would happen if they kept on pandering to Farage voters. So its no surprise they're now losing support to Greens and LibDems. Here's John Curtice in 2023 explaining how anti-Brexit and pro-EU Labour voters are ...

Reeves considers adding 1p to basic rate or raising higher or additional tax rates.

There must be no tax rise for the bottom 50%.

Must tax dividends & capital gains at same rate as wages, restrict tax relief on pension contributions to basic rate only.

HMRC hasn't collected over £500bn since 2010
Reeves considers breaking manifesto pledge with income tax rise to fill £30bn gap
Exclusive: Treasury discussions include possibly adding 1p to basic rate or raising higher or additional tax rates

When I was a teenager there was a bus direct from my hometown in Germany to London - we had a British army base, and this direct bus connection was one of the benefits of that. One summer I went on that bus to go volunteer in an old people's home in Southend-on-Sea. I had just turned 18 and was... 🧵

It would be better if Keir Starmer was more Billy Bragg and less Farage.

Ed Davey, "I'm afraid Nigel Farage should be apologising for helping cause this problem in the first place"

"Before Brexit we didn't have a small boats problem because we had 27 return agreements with EU countries and we could return people"

🔥 A song about Trump’s visit to the UK.

Very few songs are genius. This one is. Those lyrics are killer.

This is how you go about reaching people. It's not a difficult argument to make - we just need politicians to make it.
We all need to be having these conversations.

‘If I felt Zuckerberg and Sandberg were monsters, I wouldn’t have worked at Meta’: Nick Clegg on tech bros, AI and Starmer’s half measures
When Britain’s former deputy PM took a job at Meta, nothing could have prepared him for the ‘cloying conformity’ of the tech world. So why does he still think social media is a force for good?
