Who needs enemies when you have friends like this 😳 What does Putin have on Trump? Or is it all just unadulterated adoration from Trump. A real man crush & an urge to be as cruel and ruthles. 29 times Donald Trump did what Putin wanted

As Trump proves the Americans should’ve listened to the Democrats by abandoning Europe, allying with Russia and denouncing Zelensky as a dictator, only 3% of the UK public agree with Trump that Ukraine is responsible for the war. And only 8% of Farage’s supporters agree with Trump.

We have had a decade of racism, xenophobia & migrant demonization. Much from the former Tory govt which was despicable - UK would fall apart with out migrants & their contributions We needed a clear opposition & choice to this divisive rhetoric & Labour are letting people down We expect better

When the Tates get released they face immediate extradition to the UK. Doubt they'll enjoy that much so bring it on.

The construction sector has warned it simply doesn't have the workers to build the 1.5 million homes pledged by the government. Between 2017 & the end of 2020 the ONS reported a 42% fall in EU-born construction workers in the UK. Thanks, Brexit. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

FOR THE THIRD TIME Meloni has shipped a handful of asylum seekers back & forth across the Adriatic. This is costing Italian taxpayers hundreds of millions. It is a farcical spectacle of cruelty that only serves to highlight the lack of control you get from the far right

I have many friends, family and neighbors facing job losses and financial difficulties. My community is in turmoil. People in countries I care about are being abandoned. The values and principles I worked for my entire life for are being betrayed. Eventually, we’re all caught in Trump’s tsunami. 🧵

Deep in a Whitehall bunker officials are today trying to prepare for what Keir Starmer should say if asked tomorrow by EU leaders "what are you doing about Trump's tariffs?" Even more so if asked "Do you really think you can negotiate with this US administration?"

If there’s any good emergency reason why Britain should re-join the EU in some arrangement, it’s Trump’s trade war. These megalomaniacs in the White House are courting global disaster, and we need to stick with our friends

Incredible story. Grimly predictable that the people who most vocally attacked the centre-left during the Corbyn years were secretly in talks with the right.

My quote translated If British political parties launched a positive campaign in favour of joining the EU there would be majority support. We need to offer an emotional argument, recalling our shared history with Europe & the importance of cultural ties so 'Breturn' can become more than a dream

Due to the pro-Brexit, right-wing media & social media landscape, being a progressive, pro-EU campaigner can feel like an uphill battle sometimes Polls like this help restore our faith because they prove that the loudest voices in these spaces certainly do not represent the majority.

Two polls show Brexit and threat of Trump are transforming Britons, drawing them closer to Europe and away from USA. These findings make it even more absurd that Labour govt desperate for growth remains so reluctant to take up offers to alleviate Brexit difficulties. archive.ph/2025.01.25-0...
