Rejoining the EU by eating the Brexit Elephant one bite at a time. I will defend myself but I do not want to engage in culture wars. Better to find what we do agree on and work to an acccomodation from there.

To mark #SussexDay, a reminder of the celebration in pictures of our beautiful county published in Sussex Bylines on St Richards Day in 2023, with thanks to the author Rick Dillon and young photographer Ben Muir. Happy Sussex Day!

Happy Sussex Day to all European Movement members in our historic county!

@sussexbylines.co.uk Happy Sussex Day. There is no contradiction or conflict in celebrating our county, our country and our continent.

Happy Sussex Day

We used to do Mother's day when I was a child. Three Sundays before Easter - but my Dad said not to do Father's Day as it was simply a commercial gimmick. My father-in-law said the same. So I hope you are not surprised or offended when I simply wish you a happy Sunday.

Can DOGE explain how paying for Trump to play at being King like a child on his birthday is efficient government?

Thames Water is now controlled by two US credit powerhouses: Silver Point Capital and Elliott Management. Their game - asset stripping, profiteering, slick PR, devour; to get high returns. Govt can put an end by bringing water into public ownership, but refuses. People's misery to deepen.

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social why on earth have you not given Great British Energy the hashtag #powertothepeople ?

🥳 Farage cheered. Labour stayed 🤫 The Brexiteers celebrated. Now Brits need Spanish permission to visit Gibraltar — your own land, kicked out after 90 days like strangers. No border for Spain. But one for you. Brexit was never about sovereignty. It was a con. #BrexitReality #FarageSoldYouOut

🇬🇮🤝 The government’s “Gibraltar deal” just restores what Brexit wrecked. But: Gibraltar’s economy will still suffer Brexit, & now the border has moved… to the airport! This isn’t a win it’s damage control, and local businesses are still paying the price. #RejoinEU #BrexitReality

Oh the irony

Boom - the way to prosperity and growth for the UK, is via the EU

NO NO NO The public doesn't want any of this Thames Water has failed in private hands for 35 years TAKE IT BACK and make the shareholders and creditors pay for their mess news.sky.com/story/hong-k...

“Is Rachel Reeves a good chancellor?” Paul Johnson’s laugh exposes the truth: Labour has chosen to strangle local economies with Tory Brexit red lines and austerity-era fiscal rules. This is why British farms and SMEs are being run down as Patrick Minford predicted.

Despite how it has been reported list of achievements from this deal is substantial, & goes further than the very Ltd ambition set out in Labour’s manifesto Govt can sell the deal as a win for Britain in three big ways Much more needs to be done but this is a welcome step @bylinetimes.bsky.social

Extraordinary: Thames Water private bidders demand immunity over environmental crimes It's never been cheaper to take Thames Water into PUBLIC OWNERSHIP, normal in 9 out of 10 countries Halve the debt Reinvest the profits Protect households + environment www.theguardian.com/business/202...

US aggression versus EU membership: The UK must choose stability over Trump’s chaos 👏👏👏
