Removing the memorial to the 49 innocent people killed in the 2016 terrorist attack on the Pulse nightclub, because a rainbow is too political. Restoring Confederate monuments and renaming military bases after Confederates because, um, honoring armed treason in defense of slavery isn’t political?

This is a great opportunity to begin putting right the damage of Brexit - which is impacting our economic growth, our small businesses, our creative industries, opportunities for our young people, and so much more, every single day.

These are the key steps the government can push forward on 19 May to show they’re serious about the UK-EU reset
On 19 May, Keir Starmer is hosting European leaders for a crucial UK-EU Summit to discuss Britain’s future relationship with the EU. Here’s what could be on the table.

NEW—After a day of uncertainty on where agents took Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk, she appears to be in a Louisiana facility. 1400+ miles from Somerville, Massachusetts, where she was taken. A judge ordered to not take her out of state without 48 hour notice. She was detained last night.

This moment of crisis demands closer UK-EU cooperation
Britain may have left the EU, but when it comes to keeping our continent safe, Europe cannot afford to be less than the sum of our parts.
