John Major, "Our links to Europe and America may be loser now than once they were and that is a loss"
"The loss of trade with Europe alone costs us £100 billion of lost trade every year"
"That's a tax yield of £40 billion"

They lie about the ECHR.
Just like they lied about Brexit. Claiming if we just got rid of that ‘European’ thing, we’d be free, we’d have control, all our problems solved…
It’s NOT TRUE.
We’d inflict more chaos on ourselves and torch our own human rights framework for NOTHING.
For liars.
Again.

Libraries in Reform UK run Staffordshire are being forced to close.
They are refusing to hire much needed staff and refusing over time or paying for staff to be covered. This is resulting in libraries closing because of too few staff, despite there being available staff to cover.

Quite so. The right question is, has she done anything morally or ethically wrong? And, for the two reasons I explain here and your post overlaps with my first, it's really quite hard to see on the apparent facts that she has. bsky.app/profile/good...
What much of this analysis misses - sometimes willfully and sometimes from ignorance - is that you only ask a tax specialist for advice if you know you have a tax question. Otherwise, with a relatively low value transaction, you just do what the conveyancer says. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This'll be very telling when he comes to speak. If Farage uses his appearance in front of that committee to encourage a foreign state to bully his own country, he'll have crossed a very specific line.
Politico: "The Sun has seen evidence to [a US] committee submitted by Nigel Farage in which he suggests the White House should use “diplomacy and trade” in the free speech battle, which sounds like calling for Britain to be bullied into a law change."
Is Farage calling for sanctions AGAINST the UK?
