Combined LibDem and Green support is now almost at the level of the other three parties. A big LibDem and Green vote in the local elections will pull British politics away from the far-right and towards the EU. Fight Fascism - #Vote4Democracy #RejoinEU

Honestly, UK, do it or fuck off. The world’s in flames, and you’re pissing about over the name of the most basic and uncontroversial form of cooperation imaginable. If you can’t even manage this, go away and come back when you’ve grown the fuck up. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Far too many people across the country are still struggling to get a GP appointment when they need one. The Conservatives ran health services into the ground but it is now the Labour government not showing nearly enough ambition to break this cycle of misery.

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.

Wera just wanted to visit her son in Hong Kong and meet her baby grandson for the first time. But after a 13-hour flight, the Chinese authorities turned her away – just because she’s a British MP. So heartless. And totally unacceptable.

Sadly there seems to be no method to Labour’s madness, they continue Tory policies, including government by sound bites and click bait…🤦‍♂️

The world has changed, Trump has unleashed chaos as he turns the US into an autocracy. As Tom Bandwin @theguardian.com says, it's time for the Brexit red lines to go. The best future for the UK is as a member of the EU 🇬🇧🇪🇺 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... #RejoinEU (1/2)

In case you missed it ... In 2023, Mark Carney gave a speech about the damage Brexit has done to Britain. He knew Brexit was just the first salvo in a wider coordinated attack upon Western democracy. The aim is always to undermine the system by convincing enough people that their nation is "broken".

I would be more supportive of this steel debate if I thought Starmer gave a flying fuck about national resources and not just tabloid headlines

Lib Dem leader @eddavey.libdems.org.uk: “Given the huge damage Trump's tariffs have done to the British steel industry... any member of this House that actively campaigned for [his] election and cheered him on has behaved shamefully and unpatriotically and should apologies to British steel workers.”
