Brexit Bin 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 🇩🇪 @brexitbin.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
So it's official! 💥 Brexit was simply the first salvo in a Putin-backed attack upon the West. The same battle is now being fought throughout Europe. If the UK turns its back on Brexit and rejoins the EU, it will be seen as a victory for the whole of Europe against Putin and the rise of fascism.

Three summers of paramilitary directed racist violence, enabled by Unionist politicians talking about “legitimate concerns”. Children burnt out of their homes. The rest of us, from all backgrounds, aren’t stupid. We know what you’re at. We’ve seen what the future can be, you’re trying to stop it.

Political Unionism, at the behest of Bryson et al, has picked at the sorest sectarian scab of the last 30 years, to create a festering wound. Utterly depressing considering the glimpse of the future we had during the Fleadh. They only wish to drag us back. Solidarity with the residents of Garvaghy.

The RNLI rescued Luftwaffe pilots in WW2 because the organisation is there to 'save life at sea' - it's something to be immensely proud of. But as I've said many times before Farage and Co don't seem to have pride in Britain and its institutions beyond flags and crap Enoch Powell said 60 years ago.

The Reformati have spent plenty of time talking about protecting women and girls. This is apparently what happens when one of those women has the wrong opinion. I’m sure the “Women for Reform” launched at the conference were outraged by this - right?
