How did we let Brexit happen? 😳

🌍 One Earth. One Team. The UK and EU must work together to tackle climate change, reduce energy costs, and protect our environment. bsky.app/profile/euro...
Brexit is putting bills up and water quality down.

It's time for a UK-EU partnership on Energy, Climate and Environment.

One year ago, Liberal Democrats won 72 seats, our best result in 100 years.

Every day, we're pushing the Government to go further and faster in fixing the NHS and social care, and demanding a bolder plan to boost the economy.

Michelle Mone has admitted that she lied to the media over her links to a PPE firm. Enough is enough, it's time those in power put an end to this sordid affair. Sign the petition now and demand Mone is expelled from the House of Lords:

I wonder what would happen if we had another Brexit referendum?
50 years ago today, when Britain voted to remain in Europe (and not by a small majority but a large one), the Sun, Daily Mail, Telegraph, etc were not owned by three far-right Europhobes.

Cool 😎
Thursday 5 June, is the 50th anniversary of the UK voting overwhelmingly YES to remain in what was then the European Community which we had joined on 1 Jan 1973. It became the EU. 17.38mn (67.2%) voted YES and 8.47m (32.8%) voted NO.

Trump spent 75 minutes on the phone with Putin. He praised him, talked about teaming up on Iran, but apparently never called on him to stop targeting innocent civilians.

What a disgraceful way to treat our allies and the brave people of Ukraine.

The EU has approved its 17th sanctions package against Russia, targeting nearly 200 shadow fleet ships.

New measures also address hybrid threats and human rights.

More sanctions on Russia are in the works.

The longer Russia wages war, the tougher our response.

Parliament must get a vote on the government’s deal with the US.

Blocking MPs from having a vote would be Trumpian tactics, plain and simple.

A TRADE DEAL WITH TRUMP?

We need it to be examined thoroughly.
Trump will try to increase the divide between us and the EU. Starmer doesn’t care about that, WE DO!

We should be rejoining the SM & CU and getting rid of the £100bn Brexit is costing us.

EUROPE NOT TRUMP’S AMERICA!

What sort of trade deal is Starmer going to agree to? Shit loads of crap American food? Is he going to agree to Trump’s weird demands on free speech as a prerequisite? Is Trump going to lift tariffs? No.

We should be rejoining the SM & CU!!

As the IMF downgrades UK’s growth outlook, a reminder.

Outside the EU, Britain has to bear huge admin burdens to export to our largest market.

It’s like trying to run a marathon with a sack of potatoes on your back.

To regain Britain’s competitive edge we must be a full EU member.

Rejoin EU now.

This is what we all feared. The United States and Russia bullying brave President Zelensky into a terrible deal.

Time for the United Kingdom and Europe to stand up to Trump and seize the Russian assets so we can go it alone.

This will be Europe soon.

And then the UK will have to make a choice.

No more "bridges". No more fudges. Decision time is coming.
