Good plan, Australia and Canada.
Huge sigh, UK.

How long do we wait, how much do we lose, how stupid do we have to be?
Australia and Canada are leading the way - they are choosing closer ties with the EU.

The EU is our closest partner.

The UK government should put EU membership on the table. It's really a no-brainer.

Just signed this, the Government actually has a way to get Palantir out of our NHS, but only if they act before the end of the year. Takes one click to add your name 👉 the.organise.network/campaigns/te...

🚨The UK-US pharma deal with Trump will cost 229,000 lives in England.

The deal is so bad that the editor of the British Medical Journal says it suggests "We’ll kill our poor people to make your rich companies richer”.

Dear Andy Burnham, tear up this deal as Prime Minister. Thank you.

"Leave means leave"... unless it's your own seat, apparently.

If Nigel can leave and come back, why can't Britain come back to Europe?
Nigel Farage resigns as MP for Clacton, triggering by-election which he says he will stand in
The Reform UK leader's statement follows reports he failed to declare financial support from an ally. He has also faced questions over an unregistered £5m gift from a donor.

Surely this is the wrong way round. Why does the investigation into Farage stop? There should be no election until the investigation has concluded.

Happy #NationalMeadowsDay!

Wildflower meadows are one of Britain's most diverse habitats and can contain up to 40 species in one square metre.

They attract pollinating insects such as bees, beetles, butterflies, and moths, as well as reptiles, amphibians, bats, and birds.

NEW: The Crypto Connection. @thenerve.news brings you…Part 1 of The Harbourne Receipts.

A forensic examination of the cryptobillionaire’s donations & Farage’s crypto announcements.

And guess what? There’s a pattern. Starting with the now infamous £5m gift.

Billionaire Christopher Harborne donated millions to Farage and Johnson. Then the pro-crypto announcements began. Is there a connection?
The crypto investor’s £5m gift to Reform’s leader coincided with the party’s new-found advocacy for digital assets – part of a pattern of significant political donations that also included £1m to the ...
