The only route to long term energy security for our country is through cheap clean power that we control here at home, not dependence on international fossil fuel markets that we don’t control.

Dear Reform voters, These guys are laughing at you. They promise to make your lives better… but they couldn’t give less of a shit. You’re their playthings. Their route to power. When they’ve got it, they’ll be done with you. And they’ll trash the place. Get some self-respect. The rest of the UK.

"Reform has touted its plan as a “legal reset”. But it is better understood as a total rejection of the UK’s postwar international commitments to protect the human rights of everyone within its jurisdiction."

Treaties like the ECHR protect everyone in the UK, not just migrants
These commitments have cemented the UK at the heart of the rules-based international order.

Of course Brexiters are having another foot-stamping tantrum. The small boat crisis is down to them, their lies and their EU-phobic idiocy. And, unlike our own politicians and media, Macron isn’t afraid to say so. Good for him.
Front page of The i Paper:

New migrant swap deal to start in weeks as Macron blames Brexit for small boats crisis
» French President reignites Brexit row by blaming split with the EU for small boats crisis during announcement of landmark deal with Starmer for return of migrants who cross the Channel
» Macron says British voters were 'sold a lie because UK left EU without a returns agreement, creating an incentive 'to make the crossing - the precise opposite of what Brexit promised'
» The 'one in, one out' policy will begin in weeks and could lead to around 50 migrants per week being returned to France in exchange for those who have travelled by legal means
» Leading Brexters, helding Nigel Farage and Jacob Rees Moss attack arrogant Macron
+ Analysis Hugo Gye 'This deal represents a genuine coup for Starmer'
