It seems that, to save our food and agriculture sector, Labour have accepted we must follow some EU rules This is just sensible pragmatic politics But we shouldn't be following laws we haven't been involved in making Which is why we need full EU membership www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/02...

Those who back the Trump-Musk-Vance administration, or are still giving it the benefit of the doubt, have failed the simplest test of our lifetimes - and the one that really matters. They can't be trusted again.

#bbclaurak As an Irish person it's high time Ireland woke up and smelled the coffee. We spend 0.2% of GDP on our defense. We are smug in our own virtue, manifest through neutrality. We assume every situation can be negotiated peacefully. We oppose an EU army, arrogantly assuming UK-US protection.

The uncomfortable truth is the "Trump campaigned on egg prices" thing is something Dems tell themselves to rationalize what happened in November. Trump actually campaigned on hate and abusing power -- and won! The sorry state of the American electorate is a difficult thing to come to terms with.

Our worst fears of what #Trump would do to #Ukraine are being realised… only Europe can save it now - and itself with it….ohttps://www.cnn.com/2025/02/12/politics/putin-trump-phone-call/index.html
