You've got to laugh. Why didn't she, Johnson or Sunak do it? Everything 'they' failed to do, they are now demanding from Labour.

“Starmer must not trade away our food standards as part of tariff negotiations. We are as indignant about American animal welfare as JDVance seems to be about the control of anti-abortion demonstrations outside UK clinics” So many reasons to focus on the EU, not the US. Letter of the week The Week

@carolecadwalla.bsky.social One of the bravest of our investigative journalists. We need more like her & fewer mouthpieces of those who undermine our democracies & values. Trump is staging a coup. We should not be making deals with autocrats. #DumpTrump Exit #Brexit youtu.be/TZOoT8AbkNE?...

In Finland, the radical right's vote has halved in the latest municipal elections. We can in the UK can knock the wheels off Farage's bandwagon by getting off our sofas and voting in the local elections. In low turnout elections, the act of voting can make a big difference. #Vote4Democracy

We’ve had enough of the Brexit failure, we really don’t trust Trump’s America and we want a better, more prosperous relationship with our European neighbours… “Will of the people” got us into this Brexit mess, why shouldn’t it get us out of it too? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

So, if we call it “youth opportunity scheme” instead of “youth mobility scheme”, then Brexiters might not have a wettie about it and govt can relax. Honest to god. When did we get so petty and pathetic? Oh yes. 2016. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

In case you missed it ... In 2019, outgoing EU Council President Donald Tusk described Brexit as the true "End of the British Empire". He predicted it would turn the UK into an "outsider, a second-rate player", with China, USA and the EU holding the balance of power. Everything he said came true.

Once it was easier to unite an establishment party than its opposition, because there were always many ways to oppose. The neoliberal descent into anarcho-capitalism, coinciding with increased inequality, has shown you have to split the establishment if you represent only a tiny minority.

"Robber Barons" is a term used to describe powerful and often ruthless industrialists in the late 19th century who amassed great wealth through unethical business practices, often creating monopolies and exploiting workers. Sound familiar? #Broligarchy
