So today I found out that my TED talk ‘This is What a Digital Coup Looks Like’ was TED’s most watched talk of the year.

It’s sort of amazing & terrifying. Because this *is* what a digital coup looks like.

We despair that the rightwing keep shifting the Overton Window further right. They never suggest that leaving the ECHR is impossible or not the right time. They just demand it. And we end up discussing it.
It’s time the left pushed back.
Not put up ‘can’t do’ barriers to our own hopes and aims.

🚨BREAKING🚨

MPs have voted to PASS our bill to establish a UK-EU customs union.

The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.

In 2026 US Medication is going up 25% in the UK

This will cost the NHS £3bn a year extra, to protect just £5bn of exports to the US for just 3 years

There are only two things that can happen, they prescribe less/services are cut

Or of course, both

This 'deal' is horrible

What a victory! Today MPs narrowly backed our bill to cut the Brexit red tape and end this economic nightmare.

The PM must listen to Parliament and the public, drop his self-imposed red lines and go for growth with a new customs union.

David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved.

Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy.

Corruption on display.

Creasy was presumably setting the pitch here for pro European lab MPs to not support the Lib dems’ customs union bill today.
They will tell us forever that it’s all too hard. It’s time they showed bravery, admit Brexit is a disaster, change the record & aim higher

Well done @libdems.org.uk

Either we draw closer again to the EU or we become vassals and rule takers to Trump and his far far right Christo fascist crooks.
