The Chancellor explicitly references the negative legacy of Brexit on the UK economy - so why is her govt so opposed to taking steps like joining the customs union or single market with all the economic benefits these would bring? #Budget2025

European Movement UK polled people across Britain who believe Brexit has damaged the economy, and 76% of them want the UK in the Single Market and Customs Union so taxes can come down without gutting everything else.

Liberal Democrats vs Reform UK Ltd: who’s really the underdog? The Liberal Democrats hold 72 parliamentary seats, yet the media have sidelined Ed Davey while Reform UK Ltd hogs column inches and airtime @politicalsatirical.bsky.social

We all know the Green Party has adopted green as its colour scheme to reflect its commitment to the environment. Has Reform chosen cyan to reflect the toxicity of cyanide?

Leaving the ECHR won't solve the refugee crisis, but instead would strip us of our human rights.

There have been so many leaks about what is in the budget that I am expecting it to be delivered by the COLANDER of the Exchequer.

BBC has a case against Trump. WhiteHouse Chief Press Officer called the BBC ‘100% fake news.’ Which is defamatory and untrue.

This is as bad as anything proposed by Reform. Leaving refugees in permanent limbo and unable to build a new life in the UK would be a complete abdication of our humanitarian responsibilities www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Every generation understands how important freedom of movement is for young people. It's time for the British Government to rejoin Erasmus+, to empower students with invaluable opportunities to study, work, and experience life across Europe.

Trump wants to destroy the BBC and take our money. And Nigel Farage is egging him on. All true patriots should tell them both: hands off our BBC.

Rejoining Eramsus+ would be a vital step in retaining Britain’s standing in the world and upholding the world renown of our universities. This cultural exchange was essential for cooperation in an increasingly interconnected world. It's time to restore our membership.

It turns out sucking up to a racist authoritarian with sycophantic royal parades doesn't protect you from his childish rants and legal warfare. The BBC case should be our Canada moment. The British don't like bullies - we stand up to them.

The BBC finally finds an impartial panel for Question Time:

Absolutely this.

The UK played a pivotal role in creating the ECHR. Leaving it now would betray that legacy, and destroy the very principles we helped to create.

Being quite a glorious autumn this year.

London's latest Blue Plaque is a brilliant one. (It was put up at the Tesla dealership in Tottenham by campaigners)

So we left the EU to control immigration - by doing the same thing as a country which has not left the EU. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Lovely. 👏👏👏

All regions of the UK are feeling the impact of not being close with Europe anymore. It's clear that only by rejoining the EU that we will begin to prosper.

Reform UK: anti-young, anti-working class and anti-democracy!

“Brexit and austerity still causing ‘major problems’ for economy” – Phillipson www.independent.co.uk/news/busines...

Reform’s big economic plans? Slash minimum wage for young people and bring back austerity Why tax the rich when you can pay young people less and cut public spending? www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/ref...

Today, the Chancellor named Brexit as one of the main reasons for expected tax rises and lower productivity. Wasn't Brexit supposed to put £350 million a week into the economy? 🤔 One of just many lies it seems...

Farage sold Brexit as freedom and left Britain poorer. Now he wants to cut wages for young people while pretending it’s reform. The man who broke the economy shouldn’t be trusted to fix it.

How Reform UK might threaten our NHS Reform UK has plans for the NHS that could be the tip of a slippery slope towards the healthcare nightmares suffered by Americans northeastbylines.co.uk/news/health/...

Trump's activity in the US shows us how the human rights enshrined solely by a country's own domestic law can be easily overturned. Farage knows this. That is why he wants the UK to leave the ECHR.

With the Budget approaching, it is clear that Brexit has damaged the economy in ways many feared it would. With reduced productivity, trade, and investment, it's a travesty that we're still feeling the impact almost a decade after the referendum.

Liberal Democrat MPs just defeated Nigel Farage’s Bill in Parliament to tear up people’s rights and withdraw from the ECHR. Farage wants to do away with the Britain Churchill built and turn it into Trump's America. We won't let him.

Renewable energy saves customers money, who would have thought it!

I don't know who to credit this image to, but anyway, they got the price wrong. That 2/9d should read £122 million

Nearly a decade after the referendum, the reality is clear. From the economy to freedom of movement, Brexit’s impact is still being felt, and will be, until we rebuild our relationship with our European neighbours.

Flying your flag upside down is a recognised distress call.

Think on

New figures by the Bank of England demonstrate how much of a negative impact Brexit has had on the UK economy. Trade weakness combined with uncertainty has decreased our GDP, Investment, Employment, and Productivity, resulting in a negative decline for the UK compared to our European neighbours.
