Useful reminder as to why Brexit happened. It also explains why we will never be allowed to rejoin, unless you vote Green in England, SNP in Scotland or Plaid Cymru in Wales.

England destroying the hopes of a generation of football-loving Croatian schoolchildren is wonderful to see.

I think it’s fair to say that the student journalists at Cornell are braver than the news networks who just gave up on their WH pool ban even though CNN is still being denied access.

EDITORIAL | Cornell Won’t, We Will
The Editorial Board demands that Cornell stops protecting the alleged Chi Phi rapists through the University's opaque sexual assault policies.

Don’t make legends out of them by calling them the Cornell 7. Call them what they are: the Cornell rapists.

Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

This Labour government could have responded to the genocide in Gaza in so many ways, instead they cut aid.
This is a dereliction of duty.

Labour are planning to extract more oil and gas from the North Sea despite the thousands of deaths from excess heat this summer.
We cannot allow them to win in Holborn & St Pancras and think that they can get away with this.
Vote Green. For our communities and our planet.

Manchester City found guilty, eh? What a pleasant surprise.
If only there was an appropriate song that City fans could sing so they don't look back in anger at the last 17 years. 🤔

Well done to Jason Knight speaking out and saying the Ireland-Israel shouldn't go ahead.
Especially nice to see it coming from a Bristol City player. 👍

Some people thought Liz Truss would be the right person to lead this country.
Those people are almost as stupid as she is.

Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss, "The Bank of England was set up by Tony Blair"
My view: The Bank of England was founded in 1694, during the reign of William III and Mary II.

Worrying scenes in the Channel today, for all interested in asylum policy and maritime tactics.
A small boat from Normandy spent more than 30 hours at sea. Those on board now on their 2nd rescue vessel as Border Force forced to play cat and mouse with far-right activists who have their own boat.

Danny Tommo slashes a RNLI rescue dinghy with a volunteer onboard who was completing final checks on the boat. This was in the English Channel this evening. I don't know anything about maritime law, but surely that's still criminal damage and unlawful use of a knife. I hope he gets done for this.

This is an excellent, much-needed that lays bare the naked racism in the British media.

The seven days after Channel 4 filmed James Orr are a damning indictment of the British press. Orr is a Cambridge associate professor.'

Imagine crying about 'finding out who your friends are' – after firing one of your friends for speaking about a genocide you're too scared to speak about.

Not this c*nt again...
After getting the Brexit he pushed for, he shifted chunks of his UK businesses over to the EU - plus himself to low tax Monaco.
If everyone damaged the UK like that faketriot, we really would be f*cked.
Surprised he's not relocated Man U to Europe yet.
