You can’t get the Brexit people voted for because it doesn’t exist. It was a con. A prejudiced, arrogant fantasy created by a cynical campaign of dishonesty.

This is however the relentless, tedious Brexit reality. An ongoing national scandal. A betrayal of a country by its politicians and media.
I don’t think we’ve got the Brexit people voted for. Our traders face a daily nightmare getting goods across the border.

Here’s one example of just why. Toby Ovens of Broughton Transport told us about the 26 stamps he needs on loads of forms. To move one trailer across the Channel…

I wonder if one of the reasons why right-wing politicians are defending X is because they now believe it is the instrument that will help them regain power. Not simply a way they consume media.

Russia has been doing this for decades, but you rarely see it mentioned. Immigration hatred is a powerful Russian weapon, but instead of dealing honestly with it, here in the UK our major political parties have tried to profit politically from it and instead have helped Russia destroy us.

This is beyond shocking - how can this be allowed to happen? Why on earth can’t they be released on bail? They have a right to a fair trial, appropriate medical treatment, & the removal of punitive Prison Service conditions. Govt’s ban on Palestine Action is simply intolerable

If they’re comfortable lying in the face of clear video and witnesses, think about what they do where there’s neither.

It doesn’t matter if they’re called Conservatives or Reform, they’re nasty, self-serving, incompetent, poor-hating, racist bastards and anyone who votes for them is much the same.

If only there was some sort of organisation of European countries we could join to enhance trade & cooperation. Such a thing would reduce the UK's reliance on an unstable and unreliable USA. Maybe we could call it the 'European Union'.

Nigel Farage is noted as one of the very top disinformation spreaders on X.

No surprise there then. 🤷‍♂️

Fighting the Brexit reset means scrapping Erasmus again and telling businesses that red tape, queues and cost are the price they should all pay for Farage’s petulant prejudice.

What a very tiresome bore of a man shouting at us in his soiled Brexit pants.

The support for Russian paid for influencers spreading disinformation, compared to the US State Department’s targeting of Europeans investigating it, could hardly be more stark.

Many Americans can't afford to travel (or don't have sufficient leave from work to do so, or even benefits); even when they do, they think travel is more expensive and daunting than it is. I think this is intentional. When you leave the US, you realize how bad things really are here.

Whichever way you look at it, this is a significantly superior economic performance.”
Decline, what decline? The myth of dying Europe
There is a widespread view that, by comparison with the USA, Europe is in economic and social decline. But, Zucman argues, it's not true

A colleague of Farage's has literally gone to prison for taking bribes from Putin.

Reform voters, how much more evidence do you need that Farage is the enemy within and that he endangers us all?

The story of Europe’s economic decline while US is 'soaring' is everywhere.

But it is wrong. It is a myth.

Europe delivers more leisure, longer life expectancy, less inequality than the US.

Gabriel Zucman dismantles the myths.

Oh excellent news. Brexit sovereignty strikes again.
‘Global’ Little Britain gets to plead with foreign powers not to screw us over. And foreign powers say no.

We will be doing this shit for years. What an idiotically avoidable waste of our time and resources.

🤡 Brexiteers now reduced to defending their brexit shitshow with

“Don’t blame us - blame the people in power.”

But they chose the policy, set the red lines, poisoned the debate, and made the promises.

Correct - Russian population is 14-15% Muslim - and it's a land of massive ethnic and cultural diversity.

Putin apologists don't understand it in the slightest.
This is not true at all.

Russia is far more Muslim than most of Europe and North America, and that has nothing to do with why people hate Russia.

People hate Russia because it is an imperialist dictatorship that invades, rapes, and commits genocide against its neighbors
