It’s all the relationships not formed and friends that never met which is the biggest tragedy . I am lucky as some of my closest friends were made due to freedom of movement . Brexit also caused the breakup of my relationship and now it’s so much harder to find a French lover!
"Starmer accused of having head in sand over Brexit by people who will never have to face the political consequences of making the necessary decisions."
And if he stated he was applying to rejoin tomorrow he'd be accused of having his head in the clouds 🙄, & of betraying democracy, being weak, ditching our hard won sovereignty blah, blah, blah. We've left & we'll never fully get over it, whatever Starmer may have to offer.
Why is Starmer so frightened of addressing the damage of Brexit? Polls show majority think it has been bad for the economy and would like closer relations with Europe rather than with Trump's authoritarian regime. Why aren't Labour listening? Starmer should take a leaf out of Trudeau's playbook.
I know it's easy, way too easy, to accompany any piece about Starmer with photographs like this, but this look of bewilderment really does seem to sum him up. He's not really up for it, is he?
It's pretty depressing. Trump is claiming a huge mandate for change with his razor edge win, whereas progressives seem to want to play fairly, yet not reverse the heading.
If I were PM #10100 I'd be busting a gut to safeguard democracy from oligarchs and hostile states and social and mass media
Young people living on a sinking ship with no prospect of leaving due to lies told to benefit a few rich. It’s shameful labour have not made moves to rejoin the EU.
That’s frightening! I know a couple of people who don’t think we will be listened to. Thankfully my son understands the importance & votes for people not self.
Why just the young? I’m retired, have a second home in Spain since 2002 & love to travel the whole of Europe. Now it’s constant trade offs .. totally unnecessary, just to placate brits that hate foreigners

He used his Remain credentials to get the leadership, then betrayed us.
