Yep. Tories gave zero cares for what Brexit meant for NI & Ireland. It was disgraceful Brexit was a disaster for the Good Friday Agreement,” “Boris Johnson was a disaster, and so was Liz Truss. They didn’t understand it. They had no idea how fragile that agreement was, how every word mattered.”

It's been 5 years since we left the EU. In general, people are generally worse off then they were before Brexit. We do not believe it's a coincidence. We recorded an episode, 2 years ago, to see how it Brexit is affecting the youth, give it a listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/3MXF...

5 years of Brexit. “People like Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage said there would be no downsides to leaving the EU. What we got was a smaller economy, less trade, less choice, dearer food and clothing and more complex and more expensive travel." #Brexit #Democracy #EU #Erasmus #Economy

70k signatures to rejoin the EU. Big petition, timely too - polling shows the public is in favour. Let’s get it to 100k and push Labour to debate rejoining. It’s the glaringly obvious solution our economic problems and the rise of the far right. Please repost. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

5 years of Brexit... In 2020, Yorkshire Bylines started the "David Downside Dossier"; named after David Davis' infamous quote that there would be no downsides to Brexit. The DDD started recording "downsides" published in the media. In Sept 2024, the DDD hit 2,000 recorded downsides -and stopped.

Brexit five years on. There is nowhere left for the government to hide.. youtu.be/M3q7w7xW20A?...

Nigel Farage continues to spout his boll**** unchallenged the UK must leave the ECHR If we want to avoid a dangerous chain of events which could one day see Britain joining Russia & Belarus as the only European countries outside the ECHR we need to constantly call him out youtu.be/iSTN-h8NoyY?...

I’m old enough to remember Boris Johnson telling businesses Brexit paperwork could go in a bin. Now they need a warehouse to store it in

Not a speechmaker but a strategist: Keir Starmer’s approach to Europe is all about quiet progress. The big picture? Less divergence, more alignment, & cautious bridge-building. The UK is changing direction. Report by Stephen McNair

‘We’re getting poorer’ says Nigel Farage In other news the Brexit he championed is on course to cut UK trade by a staggering 15% - a huge reduction in the potential economic performance of the country at a time when every penny counts youtu.be/jvo1JM6xZqQ?...

The liars, of course, have all moved on to new cons & deceptions. The fishing industry can't. A vaguely honest media would be holding Farage & the rest to account for this instead of promoting a meaningless petition... www.plymouthherald.co.uk/news/plymout...

“A 4% reduction in the UK’s potential GDP (caused by Brexit) puts the 1.4 % growth growth the chancellor is quoting in to context - and that’s in fifty years time” Is it any wonder business bosses are urging the Prime Minister to move as close as possible to the EU in his “Brexit reset”
