"Does the UK want to reopen the bitter Brexit debate?" asks Vicki Young.
There is a way of reviewing our relationship with Europe that does not reopen "the bitter Brexit debate", which I think is underpriced. We could all be honest and agree that Brexit was a shit idea.

The barrister who cleared Jukes and Orr is Reform’s own barrister, Adam Richardson.
Investigations, internal or otherwise, are more credible if the lawyer isn’t the company’s own lawyer!
For anyone interested in Richardson,

For 14yrs, the Tories cratered our economy, added thousands to our cost of living, melted down public services and brexited us into decades of eye-watering expense and lost opportunity.
That’s still their plan. With tax breaks for the super rich paid for by welfare cuts.
So what TF is this headline?

This week’s main story is about the Secret Service, why they’ve had so many close calls in recent years, and why some are privately calling 2028 “Armageddon.” Which we’re sure is just an arbitrary code name and nothing to worry about. Link to full segment in bio!

After a poultry plant shut down in July's heatwave, the UK's meat industry trade body called for processing sites to have "continuous access to water, irrespective of wider pressures on local supplies".
When those sites use more water than Brighton, that matters.
