If state visit isn't cancelled then Scottish government and all of us in Scotland must make clear Trump is not welcome here.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Dan has a strong point here. Already, rags like the Telegraph and the Express are swooning with delight every time the USA says something that knocks Starmer's approaches back. They will party like the world is ending if Trump sends him packing with a flea in his ear.

Starmer is pandering to Donald Trump and Elon Hitler, both of whom will be gone in 4 years. Instead of getting back to the EU, which will be there WELL beyond 4 years. If he don't u turn on this, like, yesterday, then we fight Labour/Reform/Tory as if they were one. Tik Tok Starmer.

Starmer is to attend an EU summit and Brexiters are having a proper tantrum about it. As if they negotiated something good. As if our industries hadn’t been desperately lobbying govt ever since. As if the EU wasn’t an ally. Brexiters are monstrous toddlers - a total drag on diplomacy and progress.

A brilliant analysis of the epic Brexit failure. Scorn for the liars and solidarity for the rest of us. “We lost something intangible and yet priceless, something we might never get back: an idea of our country.” Heartbreaking, enraging and yet, still hopeful. iandunt.substack.com/p/brexit-fiv...

Scotland voted 62% to remain in the EU. Instead of Westminster compromising on a tiny majority on the national vote, they committed to the hardest Brexit possible

The UK needs to lead in Europe again. We can't rely on Trump, and Labour hasn't shown the urgency or ambition to fix our relationship with our closest neighbours. A UK-EU customs union is the first step repairing that relationship. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-cost-starme…

I wonder whether anyone at the Beeb has ever told Robbie Gibb, the Brexit-supporting board member knighted by his former boss Theresa May who polices the ‘impartiality’ of others, to piss off. Someone senior, whether on or off air staff, really needs to. This nonsense can’t continue.

By golly, Labour couldn't bark up a more wrong Brexit tree if they tried. Strongly out of tune with 80% of their 2024 voters. Extraordinary mistake. That's substantially more than necessary to lose the 2029 GE. But hey ho, they'd rather stick their necks in the sand. yougov.co.uk/politics/art...

The Brexit effects on the UK car industry keep rolling... NB to avoid the allegation of simplistic takes I am advised to point out that e.g. German and Spanish production has also declined in this period. But not by half.

Michael Heseltine is 100% correct when he says Brexiteers sold Britain a “pack of lies” called for UK to rejoin the EU The former deputy PM said the UK should be “at the heart of Europe” & returning to the bloc would be “in the best interests of a generation of young British people.”

Great stuff - that's exactly right. Trump is dangerous... and the UK needs to rebuild with the rest of Europe as quickly as possible, for defence, trade, opportunity, environment, standards and protection of our democracy and values from a hostile Trump/Musk-led US.
