Lisa Nandy: “I don't think anyone in this country wants to reopen the Brexit debate.” The Country:

Starmer has not explicitly outlined a formal proposal for rejoining the EU or an alternative vision for Europe in the transcripts of his recent speeches. Starmers words are hollow and is mandate is still “let’s make Brexit work”

He never explained how he envisions the uk being at the heart of Europe. We interpret this as there only being one explanation, rejoining the EU. What if starmers vision for this is completely different one. Brexit was a direct attack on the EU. Think about it.

I wrote a Substack on it too. “Heart of Europe” means something to pro-Europeans, because it’s *our* phrase. Starmer had better not be nicking our rejoin line in order to keep us outside the EU… …in doing so he’d be aggravating the very base he’s trying to appeal to in order to save himself.

If we want to rejoin we have to want to rejoin, to be part of the community that shares our values and interests. We can’t passively wait for the right opportunity to rejoin, we must create it!

If we want to rejoin the EU, we must convince both the UK AND the EU. We must mobilise!

You can't be at the heart of something from outside its body. We need to be in the EU, at the heart of its single market, and at the table when the big calls are made.

#starmer Starmer introduced nationalism into Labour, pushing out the socialist who would not turn. The Labour Party is now a national socialism party. Some people thought the idea of putting nationalism and socialism together was an interesting idea. It’s a very powerful combination.

#starmer #ukpoltics Westminster has crumbled, its crown cracked, its throne shattered, built on whispers of deceit, and shadows of forgotten promises. But from the ashes, the people rise, Scotland, Wales, hear the call, your chains were never fate, but forged in fear and silence.

Britain deserves leaders who do not bow to the whims of lobbyists or the inertia of tradition. We need voices that echo the streets, not the corridors of Westminster. Minds that dare to imagine a future where no one is left behind

The old guard clings to power like rusted gears in a broken machine. Their hands are stained with the ink of failed policies, their voices hoarse from repeating the same tired slogans. They speak of stability, but deliver stagnation. Westminster is a hornets nest of corruption!

The Prime Minister’s latest move isn’t just a gamble, it’s a desperate echo of history. In a calculated (and cynical) bid to revive his crumbling legacy, he’s reaching back into the shadows of the past, dusting off old playbooks, and hoping the public will forget.

This is soft Brexit in a new coat of paint, a desperate attempt to rebrand the same old surrender, draped in the language of progress. The EU smiles. The markets yawn. And the people? They are left to choke on the dust of hollow words.

n the shadows of Big Ben’s towering shadow, deals are struck not in the light of public scrutiny, but in the encrypted dark corners of servers half a world away. Laws are written not by elected hands, but by AI-driven policy engines, their outputs as inscrutable as they are unassailable.

The neon glow of surveillance cameras flickers like dying stars across the cold marble of Westminster. Once the hallowed halls of democracy, now they hum with the quiet, insidious pulse of something far less noble. A promise,golden, seductive, and rotten to the core.

Beneath the veneer of order and civility, the true architects of control pull the strings, unseen, unheard, but never absent. They are the shadow kings, the silent dictators, cloaked not in darkness but in the glaring light of everyday normality.

The time has come to stand together. Not as spectators, not as isolated voices in the dark, but as a movement united, defiant, and unshakable. The chains of oppression are not broken by silence. They are shattered by solidarity.

Some Democrats and anti-MAGA Republicans think Marco Rubio would restore normalcy after Trump. Under no circumstance should any member of the Trump regime be allowed to stay in government, Marco is part of the regime, criminally aligned, and serves the same masters Trump does.

For the death of one despot is never the end of darkness. It is merely the passing of a shadow, a shadow that lengthens and deepens, for from his corpse rises a greater evil, more cunning, more ruthless, more insidious.

#labour When you feed the hungry, you strike at the heart of a system that would let them starve. When you shelter the homeless, you dismantle the illusion that their suffering is inevitable. When you stand with the oppressed, you erode the foundations of oppression itself.

#greens Because corruption thrives only where compassion is absent. Exploitation festers only where solidarity is forgotten. And tyranny crumbles only when people choose to care.

#starmer A serpent coiled in the heart of the nation, its tongue forked with promises and its fangs dipped in the venom of foreign gold. It slithers through the corridors of power, whispering into the ears of the willing and the weary alike: “This is how it must be” “This is how it has always been”

In Italy, Charlotte de Witte threw a free 20,000-people rave in Genova. Organized by the City of Genoa and supported by Mayor Silvia Salis, who was also dancing backstage, the event is part of a wider campaign to bring music back into urban spaces. This is what your government could do for you.

#starmer They sit in their oak-paneled offices, sipping tea laced with hypocrisy, debating the finer points of austerity while their bank accounts swell with offshore funds. They call it stability. We call it treason.

#starmer #ukpolitics #labour So ask yourself: When did you first notice the rot? When did you stop believing the lies? And when will you stop being afraid?

#starmer #ukpolitics #labour Westminster’s corridors whisper with the echoes of deals made in the dark, where policies are auctioned to the highest bidder and laws bend like reeds in the wind of foreign gold. This is not democracy, it is a transaction, a puppet show, puppeteers with golden crowns.

#starmer #ukpolitics #labour They call it tradition. We call it theft. They call it diplomacy. We call it submission. They call it order. We call it a cage

Ladies and gentlemen, let us cast aside the veils of decorum and polite fiction. What we are witnessing is not governance, it is plunder. Not leadership, it is subjugation. Not democracy, it is theatre.

#starmer #ukpolitics When does silence become complicity? When does obedience become surrender? And when does the illusion of order become the chains of tyranny?

The lion may wear a crown, but the beast beneath is starving, and the cage is rotting

Wales and Scotland are not asking for independence. They are demanding the right to choose, a right that was stolen, buried under centuries of unionist myth, and sold to the highest bidder. The chains of Westminster are not made of steel; they are made of the lie that unity equals strength

“People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.”

Because the world still runs on the same poisoned fuel that has choked progress for a century. The Gulf sits atop the veins of the global machine, and those who control the valves decide who breathes and who suffocates.

The Gulf is not merely a region—it is a chessboard where the kings of old play their games with blood and oil, where the echoes of empires past still whisper through the sand. The tremors you feel are not the fault of the people who live there, but of the hands that have carved their fate.

Scotland’s first minister John Swinney has said he will engage with other parties at Holyrood to form a majority government to ensure Reform UK is “locked out”.

Swinney 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 “The alternative future for Scotland is as an independent country with the greatest security and prosperity offered by EU membership, and making our vast energy wealth work for the people of Scotland. I will have more to say on the way forward on independence in the coming days and weeks”

When the only Jewish leader of a political party in the UK is branded an antisemite for opposing genocide whilst a man who made "gas chamber whistles" at Jews is lauded as the next Prime Minister you know this country is deeply, deeply sick.

33% of fertilizer go through the straits. Food shortages will occur later this year, because farmers have not planted crops or the crop yield will be considerably less. Ukrainian crop yield will be affected. People in Africa & Asia will starve. This is impunity on scale never seen.

Sir David Attenborough turns 100 on 8 May – and is, without question, Britain’s most cherished national treasure. Here's a cracking interview about animals on planes and in hotel rooms from his earlier years!

I have referred Sky News and GMB to Ofcom over disgraceful and baseless smears that have been made about me. There is nothing antisemitic about supporting the people of Palestine. I will continue to speak out against racism, apartheid and genocide. novaramedia.com/2026/05/05/j...
