Guy Verhofstadt says "more Europe" is the route towards European competitiveness, security and protecting our freedoms and rights. I interviewed him for Bylines Scotland on his recent visit to Edinburgh.

“It might take our producer five minutes to find 60 economists who feared #Brexit and five hours to find a sole voice who espoused it.

But by the time we went on air we had one of each: we presented this unequal effort to our audience as balance.

It wasn’t.”

Saving the country from Nigel Farage is the urgent, patriotic duty of this government; it is vital that it prevents an extremist, racist, authoritarian takeover which would be against the will of the overwhelming majority of the people.Nothing else matters more.

More words and no actions. The genocide is done by IDF and all Israelis serve in the IDF. This is not only settlers/settlements. Hence we need to sanction Israel. As we do Russia for the same crimes. We need to treat Israel the same as Russia for the same crimes, if we support the rulesbased order.

What about EU exports to Israel?
If you really care about Gaza you have to walk the walk, not simply talk the talk.. and it is long past time that Israel should be properly sanctioned. It is clear to Israel it can (and does) act with impunity, without repercussions. Complete trade sanctions, now.

Only a full and comprehensive blockade and boycott of Israel will do. Arrest warrants for all Israel leaders responsible for the war crimes and genocide. Confiscation of all Israeli assets abroad.

What is happening in Gaza has shaken the conscience of the world.

Man-made famine can never be a weapon of war. This must stop.

EU aid to Gaza far outweighs that of any other partner.

But of course, Europe needs to do more.

Here are measures for a way forward ↓

Could we please stop pretending that the flags being hung from streetlamps or painted on roundabouts are innocent expressions of patriotic pride? This is the far right marking out its territory. It uses these flags to intimidate its traditional victims and opponents. 🧵1/3

So either Nigel Farage lied about buying a house in Clacton, when he wanted to pretend he gave a shit about the place, or he lied about it being his girlfriend's house, when he was caught avoiding stamp duty. Either way he's a lying chancer.

Norway’s Labor Party has secured a second term in power after a bloc of center-left parties won a narrow victory in the country’s general election.

The party of PM Støre and its allies on the left won 87 of the 169 seats in parliament.

We must keep fighting against the rise of the far right!

🚨Brexit promised to CUT red tape.
The Brexit reality?

❌ MORE red tape.
❌ Small businesses chained down.
❌ Higher costs, fewer opportunities.

Brexit isn’t freedom, it’s a ball and chain on Britain 🇬🇧
