The arrogance of this man! Farage told the Sunday Times he thought the reaction to the donations would be "far worse" but had actually resulted in "some grudging respect... the fact that I managed to pull off a coup of that magnitude, I think people were quite impressed"

A second Brexit referendum is a truly stupid idea. Straight to rejoin. No fucking about. There’s no logical argument, economic or otherwise, for not rejoining. The British electorate has proven that they don’t have a clue and are easily duped by disinformation campaigns and foreign interference.

Ninety years ago today, Oswald Mosley tried to march his Blackshirts through the Jewish East End. 🧵 He had thousands of uniformed fascists behind him and 6,000 police clearing the way. But the people of the East End got there first.

PM Burnham admits Brexit did “more harm than good”! 🚨 In @yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk 📰, Chair @leedsblue67.bsky.social says this watershed moment is a "unique window of opportunity." 🚪 Door is open to rethink our EU ties. 🇪🇺 It’s time to step off the sidelines! 🗳️ #RejoinEU #Leeds #Brexit 👇
A scanned clipping of a published letter to the editor in the Yorkshire Evening Post on Friday, October 2, 2026, headlined "It's time to have your say" by Peter Packham, Chair, Leeds for Europe.   The letter describes Prime Minister Andy Burnham's frank admission that Brexit has done the UK "more harm than good" as a watershed moment. With the PM acknowledging lost control over the economy and immigration, it argues the door is finally open to rethink the relationship with the European Union.   Because the future relationship hasn't been dictated yet, the author calls this a "unique window of opportunity" and urges those minded to support rejoining to step off the sidelines and join the European Movement UK. It notes that doing so automatically joins them to their local grassroots branch, like Leeds for Europe.   The letter stresses the importance of younger generations having their say, encouraging older readers to mention the under-35s youth wing, the Young European Movement, to their children and grandchildren.   Finally, it notes a bonus for Yorkshire members: the European Movement is holding its national AGM in person at the Leeds City Museum on Saturday, November 14, giving local members the perfect opportunity to participate.

Much of what Burnham says is true. The 1980s were a decade of deindustrialisation, asset-stripping & financial deregulation that has shaped modern Britain & not in a good way. But listen more closely to the speech, and it becomes clear that Burnham is struggling to find a way to turn back the clock

“The question is not whether we can afford to remain within the Convention [ECHR]. It is whether, in an increasingly dangerous world, we can afford not to” Political liars and lightweights, like Badenoch and Farage, must never be allowed to take that risk. www.lawgazette.co.uk/commentary-a...
The Law Society
Gazette

In short, if Britain were to leave the ECHR, it would not be
'taking back control. It would be surrendering influence over the rules and institutions that help keep us safe.
The debate about the ECHR is too often conducted as though it were a choice between national sovereignty and international law. That is a false choice.
The Convention advances British interests because it reflects British values: liberty under law, democratic government and the accountability of power.
Walking away would not make Britain freer. It would make Britain weaker.
