This is Johnson talking about rejoining Erasmus. A programme he promised not to leave and then did so anyway. Slamming the door on opportunities for our young people. Now he talks of gunning down those who attempt to fix his ruinous mess. The man is an irredeemable wanker.

The worst, most dishonest prime minister we’ve ever had, rocks back and forth in his Daily Mail cubbyhole spewing out idiotic bilge to kid himself that he and his disastrous Brexit weren’t an almighty national fuck-up.
A deeply pathetic threat from an abject failure of a man.

Three days ago Starmer was arguing that the UK shouldn’t think about rejoining the EU because it would unpick all these great US trade deals.

Farage received £25,972 for speaking as 'the man who delivered Brexit' at a Florida Republicans fundraiser dinner in March.

Reform UK is about bringing MAGA Trumpism to our country - politics that serves the super rich & sacrifices the rest.

Somali Minnesotans can speak to this xenophobia so clearly because they feel the consequences of his hateful words.

Read what Faisa has to say:
Profoundly ignorant and profoundly ironic - because the Somali community I know is everything that conservatives and Republicans claim to want in America. We are people of deep and unwavering faith. We pray five times a day, no matter where we are, no matter who's looking. We are generous people who give freely and without hesitation to our neighbors, regardless of where they're from or who they vote for. We are so damn funny. We love so deeply. We proudly live our values. We do not cower. We are as American as apple pie and as Minnesotan as ranch dressing, and we have invested in our communities, our state and our nation.

Travelers visiting the United States from countries like Britain, France, Germany and South Korea could soon have to undergo a review of up to five years of their social media history, according to a proposal filed on Tuesday by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The change would affect visitors eligible for the visa waiver program, which allows people from 42 countries to travel to the United States for up to 90 days without a visa as long as they first obtain electronic travel authorization. In a document filed on Tuesday in the Federal Register, C.B.P. said it plans to ask applicants for a long list of personal data including social media, email addresses from the last decade, and the names, birth dates, places of residence and birthplaces of parents, spouses, siblings and children. Under the current system, applicants from visa waiver countries must enroll in the Electronic System for Travel Authorization program. They pay $40 and submit an email address, home address, phone number and emergency contact information. The authorization is good for two years.

Staggering - the effort and resource *still* being invested in keeping the Brexit shitshow on the road.
No one’s held to account.
No one’s fallen on their sword.
No one’s got the guts to really speak out.
So, on we go, protecting this huge and ruinous lie, because telling the truth is too difficult.

The EU isn’t the solution to all the UK’s ills, most of which are self inflicted; but Brexit was never the answer either. Instead , it made everything worse, and weakened us domestically and internationally. Stop pretending we can make Brexit work.

Because of Brexit, the exchequer “will lose the thick end of £100bn in tax revenues this year”

Far from having to raise £26bn in extra taxes, Rachel Reeves could have raised spending on health, defence, infrastructure, etc and still had money to spare…

Well yes. But Labour’s anti-migration policies are slightly less hostile than those of the Tories and Reform. So, maybe the whole dismal and dishonest debate on immigration needs to be reconsidered, before the country is bankrupted by prejudice.
