The only reason Westminster will take up to £40bn and 61 years to renovate is because they are using the same garbage contractors that were behind HS2. Stop paying private thieves vast sums to not do things.

Great to see power reside where it belongs and to see it weilded so perfectly. Local mayors in many parts of the EU, fit in their mayoral duties between running their homes and businesses. They have interests if their friends, families, neighbours at heart. Not a multi millionaire, Christi-fascist.

And if billionaires need a thrill and challenge, they could always donate the lot to charity and start over again from scratch, showing us how it's done by getting up earlier, working hard and not having take away coffees in the city.

For those keeping score at home:

We’re not moving on from the #EpsteinFiles until every single one of those sick motherfuckers is in jail, preferably minus their genitalia. Don’t care who you are, if you raped and tortured little kids then you’re going down.

The ECHR protects us all. The rights within it – firmly implanted into UK law by the Human Rights Act – are the reason why families devastated by disasters like Hillsborough could demand justice, why victims of abuse can seek safety, and why disabled people are treated with dignity in care

PS none of this is to say that if the UK were offered a CU, it shouldn't bite Europe's hand off. It should. It is a huge facility and countries around the world would love such an advantage

Absolutely. And it didn’t help the ruling class mood when the EU announced that they wanted to clamp down on tax havens! It’s not fair that the ruling class have to pay their fair share of tax is it?!

The media requires their billionaire owners to probably be investigated for ties to the biggest paedophile ring in history, maybe then they’ll consider serving the public.

What a judgement and what a judge. Thirty second read but... Wow!

(Anand did challenge her on this) Europe remains the world's largest trading block and the home of the only true free trade in the world. Like all human systems, it can be improved, but to claim that because it's not perfect the UK is better off alone is nonsnense. Ends Anand Menon

It costs £16k-£25k for a single hip replacement. Maybe start by explaining that in the Daily Mail? Farage has already met with US Health Insurance companies.

If the written word reflects the state of the mind, it must be quite garbled and confused in there...

Europeans are going to be hearing "The 28th Regime" mentioned a lot after 30th Sept, when the public consultation ends. Here's a quick 🧵 summarising what the idea is. TL;DR: It's not a new Star Wars Movie. It's a proposed new better version of the EU Single Market.

You obviously don't understand how difficult it is to be rich...!

I really dig this song & think it should go viral! If you agree, go to Instagram, like, share download & share it across platforms.

The Express hopes people believe that Brexit reality is punishment by the EU, when it was the Express and other right wing press who pushed for Brexit to punish Britain. It is pure misdirection. The EU isn’t “wreaking havoc in revenge”. It’s doing exactly what any economic bloc does: 🧵 👇

Thin-skinned orange

Something else his media sycophants don’t ask Farage about.

That's his three piece sweetie.

The $75M Bezos spent on paying tribute to the orange for 'Melania' could have given $4,600 to each departing worker.

This is the crux of the matter. UK is now in CPTTP - for better or worse. People shouting for Starmer to 'get on with' rejoining the EU are still trying to choose the freedom they want ie FoM. Starmer is working to get back as many benefits from EU as possible but it's not going to be membership...

Oh dear?

This, by the way, is what I mean by the criticism “Kemi is too online”. It’s not merely that she has too online *opinions*, it’s she is leading opposition by the tempo and rhythm of social media, picking up passing hoohahs and controversies and riding them to the end of the retweet cycle.

Now, this is definitely a story worth reading: substack.com/@kristenkrol...

Very much so. It is neither as bad as portrayed, nor as one-track either. Europe remains the real city on the hill.

Alex Pretti had a rib broken in an encounter with ICE a week before they killed him. No wonder he was so determined to film their movements and to protect the women agents were violently shoving. ICE are goons, underlined again by one trying to get into the Ecuadorean consulate in Minneapolis today.

"There is something destabilizing about having known someone only as a child and then hearing they were gunned down in the street. The person you see in your mind lying in that street is still a child. I’m sure his mother feels that way, too, or she sees him at every age all at once ..."

You understand that it would take unanimity from existing EU members for the UK to be readmitted. In a number of nations only a minority would support the UK entering, in France it is only 36%.

I’m not sure that’s fair-he very much doesn’t support Brits who want to continue to live in the EU without registering as residents/paying taxes but want special part-time residents’ exceptions which exceed visa-free 90/180 rules-I am unabashedly with Niall

With the emasculation of NATO, Europe is being propelled/dragged into the military defence of Europe, European ideals & culture….we’re not living in the nostalgia of the past & ‘what might have been’ but the cruel reality of the collapse of international law & the battle of giants-I hope we survive

His comments surprised me and suggest he doesn't know what's going on inside the EU. The EU was never designed to be a military power or European NATO - it was designed to maintain peace in Europe through closer co-operation e.g. trade. It has also proved itself to be far from complacent recently.

you're spot on Seán. Niall is mistaken, the EU has not "failed to prepare for the end of the current world order." EU realised a few years ago that the USofE model doesn't scale well. Ukraine & Moldova underlined that and there's major internal reform underway, decoupled from enlargement.

When the slow learners in maga eventually cotton on to what Trump has actually done to America and the American economy, will they still not think he works for Putin?

Shameful!

The woman filming this ICE killing close by managed to share her video. She may have been detained by agents since then, as several witnesses have been. The man killed was apparently a 37yo nurse.

Not a statesman. Not strong. Not patriotic. Not principled. Farage is a traitorous little shit who is too compromised and too desperate to please Trump, to serve the best interests of our country. He will only ever betray us because he has to see Brexit through to the bitter, broken end. (iPaper)

Four-time Grammy Award nominee Jesse Welles performs his song "Join Ice." Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.

Viral race-baiting TikTok videos all traced back to one London letting agent. They weren’t Knightsbridge apartments being prepared for ‘boat people’ it turns out, it was all faked to stir up hatred.

Not even masked anymore...

MAGA Cult Slayer Finally, somebody called it out on the world stage. Thank you, Gavin!

If Nero had social media instead of a fiddle!

Thank you!

Trump said he'd release his tax records. He didn't...

The world learned today that you absolutely have to bully this dumb old asshole as a collective. Better late than never for them, but we better get used to being aggressively humiliated for the next few years.
