The EU has delivered greater stability across the continent, greater mobility for its citizens, and a single market that gives Europe global economic weight. An honour to hear President von der Leyen address the European Parliament today as we build a deeper partnership for the future.

Prime Minister Carney visits the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France.

What a graph: It shows that Brexit led to a large drop in the variety of different products traded between EU and UK. This is like a live economy 101 experiment. Note that this was published in a newsletter in which the loss of UK 'regulatory freedom' due to closer ties with EU was discussed...

Farage can *never* be PM. His greed and needy vanity make him an enormous national security risk. He has no clue how to behave with dignity or probity. The day he gets booted out of public life for good cannot come soon enough. If Clacton has its wits about it, it could be in less than a month.

Here's what the landlord lobby don't want you to know: If rents went down by 20%, renters would save £2400 a year. The government would save £2 billion a year. And landlords would still make 4.5 times as much profit as the average business.

Polanski welcomes report showing "scare stories" about rent controls false and how they could slash poverty and save government billions

Condemning riots isn't enough. We need policy action, including an immediate appraisal of X as a vehicle for coordinating far-right disorder. And we need political leadership, to challenge white nationalism as an idea, not to validate it daily and then complain when it turns violent.

A Labour minister unable to condemn Reform's plan for the mass deportations of our neighbours. Cowardly and disgraceful. Labour are incapable of standing up to Reform's divisive nonsense. Only the Green Party have the courage to do this.

Mike tapp - reform don't have a plan and they squabble amongst themselves, the government is actually bringing down immigration.

"If Labour thinks Wes Streeting is the answer, they obviously don’t know the question the country is asking." @zackpolanski.bsky.social responds to Health Secretary Wes Streeting's resignation.

Zack Polanski, Green Party leader quote graphic:
"Last week’s elections show the country is crying out for a break from the failed status quo. Starmer has been unable and unwilling to break with an economic model that has fuelled the affordability crisis, and this is why he must go.

Wes Streeting would be more of the same, but even worse -
a factional and divisive politician, a close ally of Peter Mandelson, who favours an economy even more tilted to the wealthy, and whose record as health secretary is more privatisation and more personal donations from private healthcare.

Labour are failing to stand up to the greatest threat facing this country - a Nigel Farage government. It’s time they stopped trying to mimic them, and join the Greens in taking the divisive politics of Reform head on."
