UK will surely rejoin customer union/single market in some form - and the whole Brexit thing will just have been throwing away special status in the EU, massively damaging their own economy - and inflicting a big dumb waste of everybody's time.
This is wake-up call for Labour MPs. 👋
Vote for our EU customs union bill on Tuesday so we can start to undo the damage done by Brexit.

Remember - if you're financially in a position to do so, skip the #BlackFriday deals online from big companies and shop instead from small and local businesses.
The big guns don't need your money, but for small traders it can be what keeps them going into 2026, so support your community instead.

If there's ice on the roads and you don't have winter tires, don't drive. The rubber compound in tires sold in Ireland gets hard in the cold, reducing the grip to near nothing - no matter how good a driver you think you are, your tires aren't suitable for this weather.
The Road Safety Authority has urged road users to make sure their vehicles are as safe as possible before driving in the current icy conditions.
