"Anti-migrant politics will not build a single house, staff a single hospital or raise anyone’s wages. Instead, by echoing its rhetoric, the government is simply fuelling the rise of Reform UK" Well done to these Labour MPs, trade unionists, and members. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Musk, Vance & Trump all misrepresent democracy. When they say “democracy”, they mean a free-for-all with no rule of law, where the winner takes all. When Europe says “democracy”, we mean proportional representation, collaborative politics, citizen rights, and agreed guide rails guaranteed by law.

Reform polling well shows that Lib Dem’s and Greens can do well if they push for it. We can’t keep voting for Labour forever or we will end up like the US.

At a moment when we desperately need a fragile truce to hold, Trump’s ramblings on Gaza risk having the effect of a bull in a china shop. The UK needs to make clear that these proposals must be rejected, and that we support international law and a two state solution based on 1967 borders.

The government failed to confirm Netanyahu would be immediately arrested in the UK, despite an ICC warrant. They admitted UK-made F-35 parts could violate international law, yet continue selling arms. When will the government end its complicity in genocide & end all arms sales?

Trump advisers are already telling the UK to "ditch" the EU or face trade tariffs from the US. Let's do the opposite: dump Trump and get back into the EU. US tariffs will only hurt the Trump government as long as Europe stands together. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

A top trade adviser for Donald Trump has demanded that the UK ditches the ‘socialist’ EU in favour of US ‘freedom’ and a trade deal or suffer the consequences with tariffs

Of course GB has to choose EU, not far to export, import goods no tarifs and all they have to do is rejoin.

Superb video Peter! And also everyone… isn’t it lovely that you can embed YouTube videos here and they just play nicely in place… …like back in the early days of Twitter & Facebook before platforms got jealous about other platforms and started nerfing YouTube, etc links?

The UK was seriously weakened geopolitically by leaving the EU. Unless you are one of the big boys, you need a group of friends standing alongside you.

You will NEVER convince me that battling Reform and the Tories for the ever-shrinking population of Leavers whilst ignoring the interests of a growing majority is the right move for Labour. Every time I see their Brexit stance justified, it looks like the very worst kind of narrow party tribalism.
