⚠️ Brexit has left us poorer and more isolated on the world stage.

💪 Burnham must go for EU membership. Not only will it deliver £92bn to our economy but will restore our standing in the world.

The people who sold us Brexit said we'd get closer to the Anglosphere instead, but it turns out those countries want to prioritise Europe.

Tell Burnham that we don't want to be left out

I’m shocked I tell you. Shocked
On Question Time Danny Kruger just explained that our crypto billionaire donors will "get absolutely nothing" in return for their donations. In unrelated news, we plan to cut capital gains tax on crypto assets from 24% to 10% and set up a Bank of England Bitcoin Reserve Fund.

“A real test of this government will be torule out new oil and gas drilling in the North Sea. The reason they have decided not to announce that before the by-election in Holborn and St Pancras is incredibly telling.”

Not "a risk", it just is corruption.

If it was a brown envelope stuffed with cash handed over at midnight in a pub car park it wouldn't be called "a risk".

Riddle me this. If somebody donates £36 million to a political party and £5 million to its leader, how is the £5 million not political? Asking for a parliamentary standards commissioner.

Over on X, the far-right British Patriots have launched a hate campaign against the RNLI

They are recording RNLI volunteers in order to dox them, reveal their identities and publish details of where they and their families live

These men are dangerous

I don't know if it's just that this UK government missed the context of growing up in Ireland in the 90s, but they should probably be aware that gangs of lads in balaclavas don't have the best intentions for the public.

Let me get this right: if you're a retired vicar and peacefully hold up a sign opposing genocide, you're a terrorist.

But if 1200 morons put on balaclavas and close half of Dover to stop people *escaping* genocide, police "constructively engage."

Is that it?

Greed and fossil fuel
The scourge of the earth
The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer.

Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.

We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is.

It will never reach you.

As I board the ferry from Tallinn to Helsinki, I’m reminded yet again of three things about the EU:

1) You don’t sacrifice any of your national identity or culture by being part of the EU. Estonia remains Estonia. Finland remains Finland

2) Schengen is great.

3) Brexit was and is shit.

This is what I’m trying to say but you said it better than I could
Banning tin barbecues will help prevent fires. But banning tin barbecues won't make the grass any less dry. It won't refill our rivers. It won't bring those who've died of heatstroke back to life. It won't replenish our destroyed harvests. It won't cool our overheated rail tracks.

Last night I received 4 ( yes 4) government alerts basically telling me I can’t use disposable barbecues because the ground is tinder dry.
Meanwhile a second runway gets the go ahead at Gatwick and drilling is proposed for oil and gas.
