the media are going after Reeves and accusations of dishonesty in a way they didn't with Brexiters & Boris Johnson and it's so hard to work out why

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

Of course the Queen was Remain. You don’t sustain a hereditary monarchy by randomly pulling pins out of grenades for the lols at the urging of a cluster of snake oil chancers.

Rising wages, falling waiting lists: an unpopular take, but in a few ways, life in Britain has been (slowly) improving over the past year.
But it doesn’t feel that way — and that’s a problem for Labour

Nothing better sums up the threat to our democracy and country than this far right cosplaying champion of the working class lolling about in a Belgravia club and the Sunday Times giving him a megaphone to honk out his ruinous Trumpian populism to a public tired of govt failure (that he helped cause)

Because they're terrified of accusations they're betraying Brexit. It's the same in so many areas. They're hiding their successes and yelling about their weaknesses.
It is remarkable how little effort Starmer has put into making the case for his renegotiation. No “Bloomberg” speech, no policy papers. An interview three days before deal day is the first outing of substance. If his pro-EU coalition gives him no credit for it, it’s because hes asked for none.
Keir Starmer: Why I love Eurovision — and my EU trade deal
The Prime Minister has proposed a deal which will bring the UK closer to the EU than it has been since Brexit — and thinks the British public will back him up. Read the interview ⬇️

not sure I recall Nigel Farage being so criticised for his repeated absence from EU fisheries meetings when he was an MEP & could represent British interests, or how his Brexit passion project has sold out British farming & how he’d do it again for a US trade deal
British firms will be able to bid for the new €150bn EU defence fund after the UK makes concessions on fishing quotas

Absolutely brilliant result for Hunt’s #ReadingFC
They’ve got Bristol Rovers away next, before final game at home vs Barnsley.
Straight fight between RFC and Leyton Orient for 6th place.
Will be at SCL for the Barnsley game on Sat 3rd May.
Takoever and playoffs would be great for their fans.

Thank you, dear Keir Starmer, for hosting this important meeting.

First, we need a lasting peace in Ukraine.
But it can only be achieved through strength ↓
