Ireland is pushing a motion to ban Israel from FIFA and UEFA. It has made JD Vance very mad. It's time to remove Israel from world sport, don't you agree?

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Burnham: "I cannot say to you truthfully that where we are is good enough. Brexit has done more harm than good. We need to restore a higher level of growth and prosperity for Britain." Britain needs EU membership - only then will we have the growth that our country needs.

Faragists rely on the narrative of "men on boats" creating a de facto Fifth Column in the UK to feed their agenda and to stir up hostility and to win votes and ultimately power. Suckers fall for it. Media boosts it. We've been here so many times before and you'd think we'd all wise up but hey ho

You should prosecute politicians when they break the small laws, because you won’t have the chance later, when they break the big ones.

Our polling with YouGov shows that 99% of constituencies want to rejoin the EU. And Labour promising to rejoin the EU could stop a Reform UK government. Now is the time to talk about EU membership. www.ft.com/content/a1614884-7c8c-43…

“We have seen this weaponisation of migrants play out before between Tunisia and Italy or Turkey and Greece. And at the end of that particular rainbow there's always a pot of cash. Turkey was given a huge Frontex budget. Tunisia got a one-billion deal from Italy. It can become a perverse incentive.”

RefUK, RW media, & Eurofash are plainly trying to whip up a panic about this. Any serious report must begin by explaining that Ceuta is in Africa - not mainland Spain - and 48k+ of the 50k crossers were already returned. It is frightening how many still don't know this. Please share on all socials.
Map showing the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla in North Africa.Screengrab from Politico piece that explains, citing Reuters, that 48,300 of the 50,000 recent crossings have already been expelled or voluntarily returned to Morocco.BBC report on Friday, still echoing the RW disinformation - or at the very least not challengning it sufficiently.

The UK plans to get rid of the Coastguard Service and turn it into volunteers only, to 'save money'. This will cost lives, and we have afforded it for 204 years. But now it is 'unaffordable'. No it is billionaires who are unaffordable, tax them until there aren't any.
