We have a chance to improve our relationship + trading terms with the EU, give musicians + young people more freedom and make travel easier…
And Brexiters are howling about betrayal, fish, ‘holding all the cards’ and immigration.
Same lies. Same prejudice. And same failure if we don’t ignore them.

I've been in and around politics for 50 years. Let's just say I've experienced a lot — and it's worn me down. I used to be 6 foot 4.

My new memoir, "Coming Up Short,' explores what I've learned, where I failed, and how future generations can pick up the fight for a better world. Learn more:

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.

Oh…

So that guy from The Real World, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, rescheduled his wife’s flight out of Newark to LaGuardia?

If this guy doesn’t have the confidence in the FAA or the airport that’s under his control, then he shouldn’t be employed anymore.

🔥 Despite Reform’s surge, the overall swing in local elections in the East of England region was towards the broad left.

Don’t let the media noise fool you.

The right didn’t advance - it fragmented. Here’s how...
The right is not rising in the East
Reform may have seized the Conservatives’ mantle in the local elections, but this is not a rise of the right in the East

Did you know that more than £300,000 in donations to MPs came from companies already making money from providing services to the NHS?🚨🚨🚨

Target made its choice—and so have Black consumers.

The National Black Church Initiative isn’t playing PR games. No more performative marketing while treating Black communities like disposable income streams.

I have nothing to do with this org, but it is telling.
