The US B1 bomber stationed at RAF Fairford in UK is NOT a humanitarian aid plane. Keir Starmer, we are watching you.

Do NOT support Trump and Netanyahu's illegal war.

So, Johnson, Farage, Badenoch, the Telegraphโ€ฆ howl about the UK being โ€œan irrelevance on the world stageโ€.
Remind me again who decided to isolate us with a strategically and economically idiotic Brexit, relying on a trade deal with the US to save us from exactly the kind of weakness they now bemoan.

Good to remind Trump that real political leaders care about real lives being lost in war: and that this is not a TV game show, as Trump and Hegseth seem to believe.

One of key architects of Euroscepticism, Boris Johnson, worked at Telegraph as Brussels correspondent.

He built his reputation writing colourful stories about EU rules that made Brussels look ridiculous but sold papers and fuelled decades of Euroscepticism.

They became political folklore.

For decades The Telegraph was one of the loudest cheerleaders for Brexit.

Sovereignty.
Take back control.
Escape European influence.

Now itโ€™s owned by a German publisher.

You really couldnโ€™t make it up.

The Brexit-loving brigade spluttering into their cornflakes as they discover The Telegraph has been sold to a German media company.

The irony is spectacular.

If youโ€™re looking for real misinformation about #Brexit, Peter suggests examining parts of the press and certain opaque โ€œthink tanksโ€.

If Scotland were to design a modern democratic constitution &, with it, return to the EU, then perhaps England would find a way to follow. My piece for @scotnational.bsky.social ahead of public meetings in Edinburgh & Glasgow next week - makehopepossible.org/tickets

Reform UK is most disliked party in Britain, poll finds Not going well for Farage...

It's official. Reform UK is the most disliked party in UK politics, according to new polling. Polling carried out by research group More in Common asked voters which parties they would tactically block, and found that 38% of Brits would vote against Reform, up nine points since last November.

Compare these different messages. Which is best?

- โ€œWe should follow EU rules for food productionโ€

- โ€œWe need to align to common EU food standards againโ€

- โ€œwe should work across different countries to guarantee food quality and safetyโ€

That why good Government communications matter.

Polling holds too much sway over our democracy and governance. But the G&D by-election does show that Reformโ€™s dominance is inflated by foreign/rightwing interests, irresponsible media support and Farageโ€™s ego.
If progressives can win despite all that, then hatred really is overpriced. Hope can win.

The reasons we joined the EU in the first place have not gone away. They just need rediscovering because people have forgotten why it happened.

Just for the record, Reform UK also didnโ€™t win any council by-elections tonight.

Surely this calls in to question Nigel Farageโ€™s leadership.

Yet another Brexit prediction turns to dust The europhobes said if we left the EU, other countries would follow. Wrong. In fact, the opposite has happened โ€“ nations

โ“Has only joined the UK in our self imposed isolation?

No.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธ In fact more and more countries are biting at the bit to join the EU and share in its spoils.
