Remember how they said we needed Brexit to save our fishing fleet?

The number of fishing boats operating out of Hastings has decreased from 60 in 2016 to 16 today.

Brilliant!

Corporate welfare is out of control.

One example - Drax produces electricity by burning trees, most expensive electricity, UK's biggest single polluter.

In 2024, Drax had £1.06bn operating profit, paid £100m dividend, £300m in share buyback.

Received billions in subsidies for decades. Why?

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…

⚠️ Even the most ardent Brexiteers now accept the damage done by Brexit...

💷 £90 billion in lost tax revenue... EVERY YEAR!

❌ That is over £20 billion more than the entire education budget. Scandalous.

A white British father and son BOTH raped the same child and pled guilty to multiple counts of Sexual assault.

This has been in the press for 2 days.

The Mirror is the only National newspaper to report on it…

And THAT’s why people have such a skewed perception of the links between race and SA🤷🏼‍♀️

In case you missed it, 100 voted for the bill for a Customs Union with the EU, and 100 voted against

Deputy Speaker Caroline Nokes cast the vote aye, to allow further debate, "Who will prepare the bill?"

Home Office Ministers state publicly, on the record, that they are deliberately making life worse for older people and people with disabilities who depend on care services, but it's worth it because it reduces net migration.
The Home Office also recognise that this may have an impact on user of care services who are likely to be older people and those with disabilities. The Home Office believes that despite these points the changes are justified for a number of policy reasons including reducing net migration and ending reliance on overseas recruitment.

Welcome to Britain, a country so short of dentists that an MP's 87-year-old mum pulled her teeth out with pliers. Also a country with thousands of foreign-qualified dentists who can’t work until they pass an exam so oversubscribed it’s like trying to book Glasto tickets. www.ft.com/content/f4e5...

Labour are attacking Greens. Fine. I have yet to see any party that has entirely affordable aspirations.

But at least the Greens HAVE aspirations.

Labour have seemingly decided the status quo cannot be touched, even when it doesn't work for 90% of people, or the viability of life on the planet.

So, Farage who’d previously failed 7 times to be an MP, decided that in Clacton he’d rely on his old Brexit friends - cheating (and racism) - to get him his win.
With millions now pouring into Reform, it’s beyond time to properly investigate this grubby little man

“It is now beyond doubt, however; that this assisted by the White House in its efforts to destroy Ukraine and that the United States has declared war on Europe under its appalling president”… and who does the US support in Europe? The AFD in Germany and Reform UK here.
Such grim betrayal.

(iPaper)
Extract: "It is more than plausible that, within a few decades at the latest, certain Nato members will become majority non-European," states this risible document, alleging our "economic decline is eclipsed by the real and more stark prospect of civilisational erasure". It talks about wanting "Europe to remain European" and "cultivating resistance to Europe's current trajectory within European nations", implying support for hard-right populist forces such as the AfD in Germany and Reform UK in Britain. And while Russia is no longer designated a direct threat, the only entity in the world seen as threatening free speech is the European Union. No surprise that this paper embracing hard-right nationalists and promoting "strategie stability" with Russia was welcomed by the Kremlin as "largely consistent" with its vision. It confirms that Trump, like Putin, is ideologically opposed to our continent, culture and values. So will Europe's leaders - so slow in the past to react to Russian aggression - realise the transatlantic alliance is history? Will British politicians stop the bullshit about a special relationship with Washington? Will power brokers at this challenging time understand that flattery, gifts and glittering state visits do not work? Or will they carry on prostrating themselves before a US President who despises our way of life and seeks to undermine democracies? European nations should try to help America "correct its current trajectory" - just as this dismal document declares its intention for us - amid that country's sinister slide into corruption, immorality and democratic subversion. But more fundamentally, our leaders must stop stroking Trump's absurdly inflated ego and seize the initiative to defend our continent. Europe - in alliance with soulmates such as Australia and Canada - has to show that it is prepared to fight for its future, take tough decisions and overcome national and tribal divisions in order to navigate these traumatic times.

Farage hopes he can breeze into power without scrutiny. But his racism, corrupt donations, shady links to Russia and MAGA… make it harder for him to hide. And his tantrum reactions to being challenged reveal him for the nasty inadequate he really is.
