Two days before the 2016 Brexit referendum, Daniel Hannan wrote about what life would be like in Britain on 24 June 2025. (The least accurate thing ever written about Brexit.) A week ago, he wrote in the Telegraph that Britain is turning into a third world country. He got paid for both articles.

Nine years ago the godfather of Brexit, Lord Daniel Hannan, predicted life in Brexit Britain in June 2025. Roll the tape… (VO by @gavinesler.bsky.social. Part 2 below👇)

Northampton Museum and Art Gallery made me laugh with this.
Medieval drawing of two horses. One from the side looks good. The one from the front is the drawing that went wrong. Poor horse looks very bloated.

Decent politicians need to push back against Farage's comments on Lucy Connelly. "millions of mothers after Southport feeling exactly the same way"? No. Millions did NOT feel the need to call for mass murder of asylum seekers & we simply cannot allow the idea to be normalised.

I am so in awe of Sarah's courage, whilst also being beyond appalled that she has to make this stand to show school children they are all equal and welcome in her class. How can this possibly be seen as controversial? This is very far right racist filth from Idaho Education Dept.
