The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.

As someone who voted (note past tense) Conservative for over 30 years but who loves the EU, the ECHR and Net Zero, I cheered when they elected Badenoch as leader, because I knew she has none of the qualities required to bring them back from the wilderness. Her only purpose is to split the right vote

Europeans likewise don't think the UK should get to rejoin with its previous opt outs, with 58-61% of French and Germans saying so. While 58-63% in these countries support the UK rejoining the EU, they are divided on allowing it to do so with its old opt-outs yougov.com/en-gb/articl...

However, public willingness to rejoin the EU may depend on how a rejoin deal looks - in the hypothetical example that the EU would only allow the UK to rejoin if it joined the Euro and Schengen, public support for rejoining falls to 35% yougov.com/en-gb/articl...
