Couldn't agree more. Their falsehoods misled voters and left us weaker, more vulnerable & estranged from our European family. Sovereignty they said but sucked up to Trump & look where that led. Help get UK back on the right track. #JoinTheEuropeanMovement www.europeanmovement.co.uk/membership-2...
Picture of Donald Trump to the right along side the words: "Europe can no longer rely on automatic American protection. Trump and Putin have forced Europe to rethink everything. The United Kingdom must be part of Europe's defence future, not watching from the sidelines. Security that depends on the goodwill of Donald Trump is no security at all. OUR CONTINENT - OUR DEFENCE.

The benefits didn't materialise. Many lives & businesses were disrupted, opportunities lost. We were estranged from our family. If you've had enough of it & want a brighter future, #JoinTheEuropeanMovement today & help us fight for a return to where we belong: as a full member of the European Union.
Picture of Kier Starmer at lectern along sides words: "What is becoming increasingly apparent, is the falsehoods that were peddled by Nigel Farage and others at the time of the Brexit referendum; that promise that all you had to do was "leave the EU and immigration will go down'. Then we had the Boris wave where it quadrupled. All you had to do was leave the EU and you'd have 350 million pounds a week for your NHS.' Well it hasn't materialised. All you had to do is leave the EU and all your red tape would be gone'. Tell that to any business that's trying to trade with the EU. Sir Kier Starmer Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

Don't be fooled by the right wing press. Majority of Brits say they want to join the EU. It's where we belong. If you agree, join us today: www.europeanmovement.co.uk/membership/?...
Meme with European Movement UK logo in top left above text from the Mirror newspaper of 5th January saying "Majority of Brits say they want to reverse Brexit and rejoin EU". Mirror logo and date at bottom left with Europe flag and Union flag as background to the right hand side.

The UK government has said it will rejoin the Erasmus+ programme in 2027, but many people in the UK still think it's just a student exchange programme for universities. They couldn't be more wrong. It is much more than that. Here is a reminder.

Despite the media attention he receives, Farage does not represent the majority of people in Britain, nor the values that our country is built on - cooperation, democracy, fairness, human rights and the rule of law. Don't let him persuade you his policies are popular. @europeanmovement.co.uk

Leaving the ECHR won't fix migration. But it will:
Destroy our relationship with Europe.
Destabilise the UK.
Put us in Putin's camp.
Take away protections for our human rights.

A great little festival. Many friendly discussions. Quite a number of regretful leave voters; people lamenting political damage & mistrust caused by the referendum; many ardent Europeans calling for better public information so rejoin could be a fully informed decision (unlike 2016) of the country.
Market table stall draped in union flag under green and white canopy. European Movement Staffordshire flag, pride flag and EU flag hanging in the background. Display boards leaning against table in foreground. One man in red t-shirt, arms folded standing behind the stall looking towards the cameral. A couple, backs towards the camera, engaging with a second person (mostly hidden).

Thank you to everyone who visited our stall at Stoke Pride today and made it such a friendly and fun event.
Close up of part of our table, a Pride flag is draped down in front of it, Europe flag covers the table top. On the table are rolls of stickers, a plastic punnet of metal badges, two bundles of Pride leaflets on the left and other assorted leaflets to the right. There is also a small "wheel of fortune" with sectors numbered 1-7 and three which say "free win". Behind the table is a green, collapsable leisure chair and in the background are two parked cars. View of our stall and campaign displays at Stoke Pride, all under a green gazebo. The right hand end of the table Flags as in the first picture. On this end of the table are more assorted campaign leaflets and cards and two gnomes dressed in EU and Pride colours. In front of the table is a display showing some of the benefits and opportunities available to members of the erasmus+ programme.

Trump wants us to accept hormone treated beef and chlorinated chicken as part of any trade deal. He despises our food standards. We should rebuild our relationships with Europe to secure our trade AND our standards. Join us: www.europeanmovement.co.uk/membership/?...
