I'm an absolute dog lover - they really are the best. Still angry and sad that we left the EU. I hate the Tories and Reform with a passion. #FBPE #SaveOurNHS Brexit broke Britain @ghislainehull6 on Twitter

The people who trade in despair, including progressives on here, are not their enemies. They are their handmaidens.

I know I say this every time, but it's true. They try to make you believe they are inevitable, when in fact they are defeatable. They do this because once people believe they will always win, there's no point fighting back.

What an incredible night last night. To see the resistance against populism triumph in two such different countries, in two such different ways.

The era of Reform even pretending their aim is to replace the Tories is over. Like a far left sect replaying the old hits Reform are doomed to be a 3rd/4th largest party cheering themselves up by talking about bringing back imperial measures.

Robert Jenrick, Reform Treasury lead, proposes this agenda as an alternative to closer links "𝗨𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗼𝗺𝘀" - Replace GDPR with New Zealand-style Privacy Act - Fully re-legalise Imperial units - Review all unchanged EU law - Automatically repeal remaining EU law in 5 years unless retained

#Water #Privatisation #Tories Geoffrey Howe once claimed that privatisation would give nationalised industries a good dose of the "Rigours of the "Free market". Needless to say, Geoffrey didn't have a clue...

You can't forget that pic however much you try, can you? The screaming incompetence of the Tories on full display. EU folks, prepared, serious. Tories, empty handed, empty brained smirking from all of the free sherry they consumed on the flight over. Shysters, utter shysters.

If you want win-win we need to #RejoinEU

Forty five thousand pounds in expenses claims for JUST FIVE MONTHS! The average UK salary is under thirty two thousand pounds PER ANNUM according to Forbes, NOT the thirty nine thousand that the UK government would like us to believe (see below) Maybe all politicians really care about is money? 🤔

Reform UK's Suella Braverman claims massive taxpayer-funded water bill at home equal to 18 baths a day Claim to have used 1,504 litres of water daily at her £1.2million four-bedroom pad in a five-month period. Reform have promised benefit cuts for the disabled, old, sick, poor, unfortunate.

Labour MP Alex Ballinger makes the case for closer ties with the EU, pointing out that Britain's economic performance could be significantly stronger without the barriers created by leaving. As he highlights, families could be thousands of pounds better off each year.

And true to form, Farage and the Tories (Philp) respond by being totally dishonest about it… Freedom of movement with the EU requires EU citizenship. Immigration requires visas. Talk of ‘betrayal’ and ‘uncontrolled migration’ is the mark of a liar or a fool. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

"Two-thirds of England’s largest water companies are run by senior executives previously employed by Ofwat and the EA" The awful thing (for me) is that Labour don't make the political case they could out of this because they've been hollowed out. Regulation of public utilities does_not_work.

I would like my free movement back, which was taken away by Brexit. To be able to live, work, retire freely again on the vast county we all share.

Perhaps an "honest discussion about freedom of movement" could start with the Home Office. Will the EU listen while the UK has such cruel & archaic immigration policies, especially towards EU citizens already supposedly "settled'? www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

The media have ignored the Covid Inquiry outcome. All those deaths directly caused by Johnson and Hancock ignoring advice. They need banging up. But we are moving on. Because the media say we should. Failed 6yrs on by our media colluding with the vile Tories. Never forget.

Two major polls today putting Labour back into the thirties. This one puts Reform firmly in third place and would give Labour a majority of around 134

Nigel Farage’s attack on the RNLI and co is a new low even for this bottom-feeder. He wants to prosecute anyone who saves lives of people that he doesn't like. Desperate Farage diverts attention from investigations by pledging laws that can't work. archive.ph/5UYnG/

Beware of finance industry lobbying. It hired PwC (the firm that delivers dud audits) to produce a report, claiming that UK banks face highest rates of tax. The report included taxes not borne by banks. Omitted countries that levy higher rates of taxes. Integrity never gets in the way of profits.

We all know what happened. We were there. Hancock lied at every stage even in January when WHO gave its warning Johnson didn’t take it seriously and neither did his acolytes. Sunak made it worse with his eat out scheme. Many died unnecessarily Outright negligence. There must be a reckoning

It is disgraceful that Andy Burnham took an hour out to appear on Gogglebox just to raise money for Stand Up To Cancer. If he's going to do a TV show he should do what I did and pocket £1.5million for eating some kangaroo bollocks.

The Duchy of Cornwall says it collected £503,711 rent from the King for Highgrove House. Prince William is the Duke of Cornwall. Father pays rent to son. No money left the family but nice PR. Previously, King Charles was the Duke of Cornwall. He was paying rent to himself.
