So when pedestrians are injured , do we think the driver was driving at 20 mph ? So how does spending thousands on road signs and 3 times that to the sat nav companies help safety ? www.standard.co.uk/news/transpo...

"The economy is weaker. Exports are down. The British have lost their freedom to live, work and love across the continent. Promised benefits never materialised. Businesses struggle with red tape. Farmers and fishers feel betrayed. The Brexit experiment has failed. It’s time to ask the people again."

πŸ”΄β€˜What Is the Point of Labour Winning the Next General Election if It Governs as Reform-Lite?’ The political strategy being pursued by Keir Starmer and his advisers means that whichever party comes first in 2029, Nigel Farage wins, argues Neal Lawson bylinetimes.com/2025/04/14/w...

It's not the luvies who are hit, the economy is flat lining , the NHS is having 15% , 50% or 100% staff redundancies, businesses are closing ... Maybe they cd redirect their energies to rejoining EU & a bigger economy or wealth inequality... www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

in the future everyone will be a Brexit benefit for 15 minutes

It's very short sighted of Labour. I despair for common sense both economically & security wise. At least two strong countries know the benefits of becoming member states. The World has changed & not for the better The UK standing is diminished globally since Brexit, exactly what Putin intended!

At what point are Labour going to do the right thing?
