Brexit has cost each and every one of us £3,700 a year.

But instead of solving the problem, Labour are using Brexit as an excuse to raise your taxes.

My message ahead of the Budget: Stop blaming Brexit and start fixing it!

Brexit: “The most dishonest campaign in our history said it would save us £350m a week, but Brexit actually cost us £250m a day in 2025. That is why we have the highest taxes ever, that is why we have sky-high bills, that is why we have a cost of living crisis” @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Donald Trump is gunning for the BBC, and Farage is cheering him on. Want to know why? Follow the money…

Donald Trump destroyed public service broadcasting in the US - it's little surprise Nigel Farage wants to do the same thing here.

Trump’s America, don’t let it become Farage’s Britain.

Rachel Reeves says we have a £25 billion black hole

Rachel Reeves knows Brexit makes us £40 billion poorer

Rejoining the EU would give us a £15 billion surplus

Why doesn't Labour want what's best for the UK?

Tax rises? That'll be Brexit

I miss this part of belonging to our continent more than most aspects. I used to live in Paris & commute to London by Eurostar every week. Now I’ll need to get a visa & cannot live in France or Italy.

So Starmer should help renew Britain by launching 2 public inquiries:

1. Russian interference in our politics
2. Leveson 2 & media ownership

Sorting out political interference & the media malpractices & mendacity would be a huge step in the right direction to renewal.

Keir Starmer's aides are reportedly telling him not to go to the COP30 climate conference, because Reform would attack him for it.
Yes, they might.
And he should wear it as a badge of honour.
Standing up for humanity, for science and a habitable planet.
Where's the hazard in that?

Oh, FGS - I switched on the BBC News when I got back in from shopping. I did think I might see Lib Dem leader as it’s their conference this week. What came on? A speech by Farage live.
I can understand why he would want to sabotage LD conference but does he pay BBC for this propaganda?

#Starmer gets off your arse - abolish #Ofcom, sack the #BBC Management, implement Leveson2+ and stop Russian interference in Social Media or the Country will most definitely fall to fascism.

It's that simple.

It's urgent. It's no time to be like a rabbit caught in the headlamps of #Farage

What on earth has possessed people to believe that Reform’s motley collection of our most abysmal, prejudiced and corrupt politicians - all with a proven track record of epic and piss-taking failure would be a remotely credible government? Seriously people… and media…
you’ve lost your goddam minds.

The BBC are constantly bending over backwards to please Reform.

I fear they're becoming a mouthpiece for Nigel Farage, a guy who wants to destroy them.

There is is no 'illegal immigration' to the UK.
That is gaslighting, it makes people fearful and angry.
It is not illegal to come to the UK to apply for asylum
Those arriving by irregular routes do so because there are no safe legal routes.
@mrjamesob.bsky.social is right.

Brexit promised to “take back control of our borders”
But it also created huge labour shortages
So, govt issued huge numbers of visas to fill the gaps.
It ended reciprocal asylum arrangements with the EU
So, crossings went up.

Govt response?
“Take back control of our borders”
Such a ruinous deceit.

There should be no left right centre now.
The choice is binary:
Progressive, Liberal Democracy & Human Rights
Vs.
Regressive, Autocracy, Kleptocracy, Theocracy & suppression of Human Rights.
That's the simple choice...there is no fence, no bridge between.

Roughly 17,000 councillors in the UK. Nearly 6500 Labour. Just over 5000 Tory. 3000 Lib Dem.

Reform have 799 and suddenly N.F. is being touted by the media as the next Prime Minister?

The Green Party have 850 councillors. Why aren't the Green Party being bigged-up by the press?

Seriously, why?
