Just a reminder that cuts to benefits due to Austerity 2.0 wouldn't be necessary if we hadn't left the EU and the Single Market. The Brexit madness is costing us lost revenue, lost taxes, lost funding, lost investment, and so much more! #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

I was told this numerous times, Even though I watched trumps history of fraud, grift, bankruptcies and ignoring lawsuits and not paying contractors and never paying back bank loans...

Holding people to ransom Thames Water lenders demand govt block campaigners from legal action. Their demands: Exemption from environmental laws. No fines, prosecutions for abuses. Rocketing customer bills. Continue with sewage dumping, cash extraction. Let TW collapse. Nationalise for £1.

Who gets the DNA data ? Palantir ? Musk ? 23&me ? After all the ownership is only yours once. It is great news but with great caution in our evolving NHS ..... BBC News - NHS plans to DNA test all babies to assess disease risk www.bbc.com/news/article...

Another day of Brexshit, a restricted economy, no FOM, our expensive /asset stripping Freeport's, 110k vacancies in the NHS, no worthwhile trade deals elsewhere, countrywide gloom and government seemingly busy tidying the stationery cupboard

One of my favourite recent pastimes is looking through Keir Starmer's old Guardian op-eds. Here's a great one, from 2003. (h/t @tom-clark.bsky.social) www.theguardian.com/politics/200...

@greenjennyjones.bsky.social @labourlewis.bsky.social @carolinevoadenmp.bsky.social Please take a look at this. Thanks.

They lied to us about 'Brexit benefits'. Now they're lying to us about why we can't #RejoinEU - says this @yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk letter. Truth is, most Labour supporters want to #RejoinEU
