The EU Single Market means a product made in one member state can usually be sold anywhere else without customs checks, tariffs or unnecessary paperwork. Brexit put those barriers back in place. #SingleMarket #Brexit #RejoinEU

All it takes for Reform to fail is the shadow tanker fleet of the BBC, right wing press, and nervous media oligarchs, to turn away from their current course, and actually report some rather inconvenient truths about political corruption around crypto and money laundering

We expect no better from the right wing media, but for the BBC to enjoy the income and status the comes with being the national broadcaster, while actively putting its thumb on the scale for Reform, is a compete dereliction of its duty - to us.

The “10th (Brexit) anniversary outpouring shows is that the bitterness it engendered is now endemic. Nothing is settled, either about what has happened or what should happen next. This in itself demonstrates the ultimate failure of the referendum“

Just 10 people have already poured $617 MILLION into this year’s midterm elections. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. This is not sustainable. We need to get Big Money out of our democracy.

Brexit wasn’t an election. It wasn’t even a referendum because the only referendum we had was advisory. This was a government decision, and not even a parliamentary one. So don’t let them compare it to elections. It’s really not. The only betrayal of the British people is keeping Brexit.

The Telegraph admits that Brexit has been a disaster a mere 9 years after the vote. Very demure. Very mindful. Very brave.

A screenshot of a Telegraph article headline. The Telegraph’s blackletter masthead appears at the top, followed by the navigation bar (“News”, “Sport”, “Business”, “Calculators”, “More”). Below it, under the Business section, is a bold headline by Jeremy Warner that reads: “Time to admit the truth: Brexit has been an unmitigated economic failure.” Beneath the title is a sub-heading stating that leaving the EU has reduced Britain’s GDP by up to 8%, according to a US study. The layout is clean, white, and typical of a UK broadsheet article page.
