Reeves: Brexit has not been good — we should align more with the EU. The Times, 13 March.
The damage to our economy, our lives, and our country over the past decade speaks for itself, and it's positive to hear Government ministers admitting that leaving the EU was a mistake. However, we must look to the future rather than the past; aligning isn't enough.
Tяump failed, to be a decent human being and President, full stop.
Sick Trump appears to think a victory parade is in order!
Will he call it 'Trump's Golden War Victory', or something equally sick?
Meanwhile, reputable news outlets are reminding us that the finish line is still a ways off, and there are plenty of stumbling blocks along the route.

You talk a lot of sense, Ed. On this, defence & other things.
Unfortunately, people haven't forgotten the Libdems propped up the Tories (who decimated defence; public sector and social responsibility spending!)
Nick Clegg is still popping up on news reports still spouting 'I'm sorry' rubbish.
“Elon Musk’s Tesla given go-ahead to supply electricity in Great Britain.” A subheading underneath says: “Ofgem licence means firm can replicate Texas setup of powering homes, businesses and EVs.”
Ed Miliband must step in and bar Tesla from holding an energy licence.
Elon Musk is a threat to our national security and clearly not a fit person to operate in our energy industry.
We can’t have the lights go out because he’s having a strop on X.
As the White House appears to turn the war on Iran into some kind of sporting win, our US Editor Anushka Asthana examines whether we are now seeing the real Trump, unleashed.

Dave Allen died on 10th March 2005, aged just 68. Comedian, satirist, actor, one of the funniest men of all time. His TV shows were incredibly funny. Saw him live once. Loved by millions; We all miss the great man. R.I.P. Dave Allen. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 #DaveAllen
Reform are just another bunch of Tories, clearly.
Tories were quick to shout loudly when petrol prices increased under Gordon Brown (which was out of Govmt control).
They even insidiously put out a rallying call to fake lorry drivers to protest. A tactic they've recently revisited with anyone who can drive a tractor and proclaim to be a farmer!
Just suppose this was a Tory plan. Or imagine that Margaret Thatcher had come up with the notion at the time of the miner's strike.
But it's now a *Labour* government that proposes to abolish an 800 year old human right.
We mustn't sleepwalk into this...

Scrapping jury trials is an affront to the very foundations of our democracy.
From the moment this government was elected, it has come after the civil liberties we all hold dear.
This is yet another outrageous assault on our fundamental freedoms. I will be voting against it.
...and can't believe I still have this:
Seen him at The Leeds Folk Festival 1983 - fantastic!

Europe needs homegrown, low-carbon energy sources.
Nuclear & renewables together have a key role to play.
Nuclear energy is available around the clock, providing electricity all year.
Europe has been a pioneer in nuclear technology.
And can lead again

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
"Jews don't belong in American society."
Imagine a sitting member of Congress tweeting that. You can't. Thankfully, it'd never happen. And *if* it did, it'd be the end of their career and the biggest story in America.
But Ogles can say this about Muslims without any censure.
Good, they shouldn't be loaned to ungrateful, and disrespectful, Trump in his efforts to stay out of the Epstein searchlight anyway.
Yes, all very good. Now, sort out existing shared-equity govmt-backed flat leaseholders who were miss-sold. Govmt were supposed to be overseers.
Freeholder (housing associations) have veto rights, not explained at point of sale.
Labour should allow a option for leaseholderd, a buyback.
Good. Now sort out leasehold reform so leaseholders are not being fleeced by freeholders/management companies #leaseholdreform #leasehold #freehold #freeholders #angelarayner
At this point, you have to be delusional to think Trump is gonna leave office willingly. He’s drunk on power. He’s basically immune from criminal prosecution. He already got away with one insurrection. He’s using the military in brazen & illegal ways.
It’s time to face reality.
This is an absolutely huge jump in oil prices.
It's also why Europe needs to get off fossil fuels asap (beyond climate change impact). We can't be beholden to this.

“The showdown between the Pentagon and Anthropic is a window into how unprepared we are for the questions we are already facing,” our columnist Ezra Klein writes.
I think he would have said:
'this is no Abraham Lincoln we have here, but more of a Jimmy Savile'
Britain has gone out on a limb, time and time again, for Americans. The total lack of respect for the U.S President is disgraceful. Trump is a traitor, he's focused on the middle east while the immediate threat is Russian advancement on Europe.
Given Trump's illegal war that is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills, Keir Starmer should advise the King to call off April’s state visit to the US.
A state visit should not be given to someone who repeatedly insults and damages our country.
Yep, it never really existed.
