I’m starting the completely made up rumour that Liz Truss attempted to defect to Reform but Farage turned her down.

Pass it on.

This is how Spanish TV announced the boycott of Eurovision

If Russia is banned for what they're doing to Ukraine, surely Israel should be banned for what they're doing in Palestine?

When is the UK going to boycott Eurovision?

The UK, detached from Europe and sucking up to Trump, is particularly vulnerable. I hope our politicians are listening.

When Britain was toying with Putin’s pet project Brexit from 2013, Putin was also planning to annex Ukraine, starting with Crimea in 2014.

We need to rejoin as a full member, return at the heart of the European Union.

We are not special.

But we can be responsible.

And Cameron was an idiot.

Basically it looks like weakening democracy by supporting nationalist parties across Europe, and trashing NATO - this is Putin's dream wishlist

The US under Trump is tearing apart the global rules based order

I prefer closer ties with the EU than with the US under Trump

David Lammy, "Leaving the EU has badly damaged our economy"

"Untruths were peddled by Brexiters"

"We should work to be closer to EU"

Labour should have said this 16 months ago when they came into office. Better late than never
