It is incumbent on every single decent-minded, responsible British citizen to do *everything* they can to prevent Farage from gaining power. It couldn’t matter more for the future wellbeing of our country. Him as PM is too grotesque for words. Trump is a genuinely comparable case study.

A real shame if this photo went viral again today.

If the people being deported from Minnesota were being herded onto trains rather than planes we would know what to think

"We’re protecting a lot of people that are being killed. Christians, Jewish people". Muslims? Hindus? Sikhs? Not so much.

I’m increasingly fucking mad at Trump, his cronies, and moral cowards in GOP. Most Americans still don’t get how bad it is. Europeans, and Canada, need to organize mass protests outside US embassies, bases, Trump properties, and make enough noise that it finally registers.

Trump wants to destroy a strong and united Europe. Against chaos, we defend a rules-based international order. Against egoism, we choose cooperation based on mutual respect. Against brute power politics, we stand united in defence of our values. This is the European way.

Western leaders tiptoeing around hoping things can be patched up are making mistake. Appeasement doesn’t work. Starmer should make clear to British public what’s at stake and prepare them for rough road ahead. I believe Brits wd respond positively, and be willing to accept some costs. Self respect.

Faced with the deranged threats and wild madness of Trump’s presidency, our Brexit ‘sovereignty’ couldn’t be more costly… and yet worthless. Farage and Badenoch would rather bend the knee to the US monster than admit that our future is with Europe. The deceit is pathological. Sociopathic. Ruinous.

Polanski argues we should expel American troops from UK bases. We must start playing the cards we hold not act as if America’s hand is overwhelming. It’s not just the cards you have it’s also the way you play them and we are playing against a man who might set fire to his apple.news/ATUCxcVXUT4q...

Trump makes the case for energy independence and the world responds. The wind and sun are democratising the global energy market - every country has access to them, not just a few. www.edie.net/global-fossi....

That’s why green energy is forecast to grow by 17% this year, along with the fact it’s the cheapest energy available to us - oh and will never run out.

By contrast fossil fuels are set to grow just 1%. Trump is living in the past, Oil is yesterday's energy and those that control it are desperate to delay its demise. The wind and sun already provide 30% of global electricity and that number is growing fast. Viva the green industrial revolution.

Starmer says that US is still a close ally in terms of defence and intelligence Doesn't seem to understand that this dependency is the heart of the problem we now face, with a crazy narcissist in the White House

Whatever you think of the policy itself, and I'm a critic, today's press conference demonstrates two things: Journalists can rise to the occasion and do their jobs properly; Starmer is a person of principle who operates like the leader of a democracy We should not take these two points for granted

It's true: "In 1943, Norwegian author Knut Hamsun went to Nazi Germany and met with Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels. After returning to Norway, he sent his Nobel medal to Goebbels as a gesture of thanks for the meeting. Goebbels was honoured by the gift." What an extarordinary precedent.

The UK was better off in the EU and Europe was better off with the UK in it. All of this Trump driven chaos underlines that and you can practically hear Putin rubbing his hands in Moscow. WE have deliberately weakened ourselves, our security and our region for absolutely no good purpose at all.

The Prime Minister promised transparency & accountability in public office. His decision to deny the @chinookjustice.bsky.social families an opportunity to find out the truth is the opposite of that youtu.be/qdGh2sB7mLw?...

Trump 1.0 was Julius Caesar Trump 2.0 is King Lear And everyone watching in Congress is Hamlet

He was bailed over 4x and not suspended by the Tories while being investigated, but instead, stayed away from parliament on a *purely voluntary* basis, despite the seriousness of the crimes. Dropped charges DO NOT mean innocence. It means that it didn’t get to court. Like all the other rape cases

I’ve been stalwart backer of transatlantic alliance all my life. I understand why Europeans have so far trod softly/tried to keep Trump onside. But, there comes a time when you have to face reality. The US is no longer our ally. Its defense guarantee is worthless. Time to kick ass back🧵

Carswell is yet another example of an absolute bellend having his general humourlessness and abject stupidity confused for genius.

Morning.

All of these people - Mogg, Farage, Carswell, Jenrick, Hannan and the rest need to be forever reminded of what they backed and supported

The conservative government and Brexiters on social media tried desperately at the time to get us to shut up forever.... They failed. #BrexitHasFailed #RejoinEU

New polling suggests that if another Brexit referendum were to take place, a majority of voters would opt for rejoining the European Union. According to a Deltapoll survey for the Mirror, nearly 6 in 10 people, or 58 percent, would vote to return to the bloc. www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/news-op...

This is pretty much the only post anyone should need to understand that Farage is a traitor, a conman and a populist simpleton who must *never* be given power.

Barriers with our closest trading partner don’t protect the economy, but rather damage it. Reconnecting with our largest trading partner is vital if we’re serious about repairing our economy.

This is how Brexit is laundered out of the story 👉name the symptoms 👉blame a foreign crisis 👉omit the political choice that made Britain uniquely exposed. And consumers keep paying for a decision they were promised would make food cheaper.

… disproportionately hit food as margins are thin and supply chains are time-sensitive. 💥 Ukraine explains the initial energy shock. 🔥 Brexit explains why costs don’t come back down. You can’t keep blaming a 2022 invasion for price pressures that are now structural, domestic and policy-driven.

Food prices are rising again and The Times blames Ukraine invasion but sidesteps Brexit: 💥 Border friction 💥 Paperwork 💥 Checks 💥 Labour shortages 💥 Higher costs passed down chain These are consequences of leaving frictionless trading bloc which …. 🧵 👇

The RSPB are up in arms about estimates of 65 deaths a year - that could be caused by a new offshore wind farm - you know the kind of thing, makes green energy a key tool in the fight against climate change……RSPB can’t see the flock for the bird.

In the last ten years some 30k Puffins have died due to heatwaves, storms and flooding - you might describe all of that as climate change - but that’s not the point, or is it. buff.ly/b7TUaVl
