My question clearly struck a nerve. The faces of many Labour MPs told their own story – plenty of them know I was right. If Starmer’s convictions change with the political weather, it’s no surprise that support for Labour is falling through the floor.

Every €1 the EU invests in research can yield up to €11 in growth by 2045. With €43 billion from Horizon Europe, we’ve backed 15,000+ projects – from antibiotics to the transition. This year we’ll put in over €7.3 billion to meet Europe’s challenges. For everyone to benefit ↓ europa.eu/!WHpGGg

If Labour weren't such total cowards about Brexit, they could have diffused the row over immigration by pointing, again and again and again, at the graph that shows immigration skyrocketed immediately after the transition period ended. Make "Brexit = v high levels of immigration" in peoples' minds.

🚨 NEW POLLING: A majority of Brits (52%) would be open to aligning with ALL EU rules on goods and products if it led to a better trading relationship with the EU. Only a quarter would oppose such a move. The public is clearly in favour of a common sense approach. #Brexit

It's a bad sign when allegedly intelligent columnists in purported liberal publications spend more energy defending Starmer's clumsy, ugly and gratuitously populist attack on immigrants than they spend defending immigrants.

Before the Brexit referendum, Brexiters would pick a real or imagined flaw in the EU as a reason to leave it, even though it was far outweighed by the benefits. Now they hail every tiny win as a 'Brexit Benefit', even though it represents a minimal fraction of what we lost by Brexit.

There are three stages to summits like Monday's UK-EU summit. Before the summit, the day of the summit and the aftermath of the summit. The day of the summit is often the least important in decision-making terms....but usually the most important in communication and media terms.

Very ashamed today of Starmer/Labour's comments about 'island of strangers' and 'incalculable damage'. It's the job of the government to leave the country in a better place than they found it, not to appeal to the base instincts of a nation in order simply to carry on governing.
