My former hardcore Brexit friend tonight: Words to the effect 'we need a stronger and more united Europe, and leaving the EU was a massive mistake'

🤣 Bullshitters-in-chief Reform UK claim to have made £1.7 million in savings for Lancashire County Council. The problem is the savings are for the year before their Benny Hill Brigade councilors actually took over. Incredible work once again, lads.

#PopeLeo XIV says he thinks Donald #Trump is trying to break apart the alliance between the #UnitedStates and #Europe: “The remarks that were made about Europe also in interviews recently,I think, are trying to break apart what I think needs to be a very important alliance today and in the future.”

"Brexit has caused a lot of damage to our growth and public finances. "A UK EU customs union would start to put that right." @EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk

Shamina Begum must be held accountable for her actions when she was 15. Whereas I should not, because I was a mere child.

I agree with Ed #ToriesGone523 #WeDidntVoteForThis www.lbc.co.uk/article/ed-d...

Spot on. That's why it was so disgusting and cynical of the Leave campaigns in the UK to use the symbols and evocations of WWII in their campaigning.

The #EU is the last bastion of global democracy and the free world on Earth. If it falls... whats replaces it? #China? #Russia? The #TrumpRegime? I feel like so many people deeply underestimate the peril we're in. Individual democracies on their own would just get picked off one by one

The UK flag flew at the European Parliament for 47 years Brexit brought it down on 31st Jan 2020 The US under Trump, the US siding with Russia instead of the UK and Europe, the world has changed The sooner the UK flag is raised up again at the European Parliament, the better

If you claim to be pro-EU and your reaction to the Lib Dems using literally the only influence we have to advance a pro-EU agenda is smug posts about it being “performative” then go and give your head a wobble. Keep begging Labour for crumbs if you like. maybe one day they’ll respect you.

If the Brexit ref was held today, Remain would win by over 8 million votes. That huge majority is created from old Leavers dying, young pro-EU people entering the electorate, and millions changing their mind. It's time for the big parties to accept this reality and aim their policies toward Rejoin.

😡🇪🇺👊🏻😡🇪🇺👊🏻😡🇪🇺👊🏻 Your reminder: the lies behind Brexit.

The road ahead for Britain is dark. But we do at least have twelve stars to guide us.

Today MPs voted to pass our bill to establish a UK-EU customs union. 👏🇪🇺🇬🇧 The Prime Minister must now listen to Parliament, drop his self-imposed red lines, & finally go for proper growth. We @libdems.org.uk know a bespoke EU-UK customs union would be the most effective way of doing that.

The year is 2028 and Brexit the Elephant is still waiting for Sir Keir Starmer to rejoin the EU. #BrexitTheElephant

Please sign the Liberal Democrats' 'Fix Britain's Trade' petition. They want to turbocharge our economy by forming a Customs Union with the EU, tearing down the trade barriers and red tape holding us back. Add your name here: www.libdems.org.uk/trade

"The founder of YouGov said there is now an 8.1 million majority in favour of rejoining the EU". Haven't we waited long enough for our politicians to catch up with public opinion? What on earth are they waiting for? Remember the "will of the people"? www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/ex-pol...

….enough said!

The British electorate are now overwhelmingly pro-remain. And yet the europhobes still argue the votes of the dead count for more than the views of the young. Among people who are alive today and who voted in the 2016 #Brexit Ref. remainers exceed leavers by 14.3-14.2 M archive.ph/2025.12.08-1...

The botched Brexit deal is costing Britain £90bn a year. It's time to turbocharge our economy with a UK-EU customs union. MPs must back our bill today.

Whoever campaigns on getting rid of Brexit, and then gets rid of it will be PM for at least a decade.

Britain’s failure to join the EU’s Security Action for Europe (SAFE) defence scheme is a classic example of the post-Brexit dumb policy genre ✏️ @lukemcgee.bsky.social

The Trump administration's foreign policy strategy attacks allies including the UK & has been enthusiastically greeted by the Kremlin. Last month, the USA announced a 'peace deal' the Kremlin had written. And in the UK, the media is full of people still wibbling about 'Trump Derangement Syndrome'.

Nigel Farage under pressure over crypto links as MPs call for investigation

This afternoon, we had a meeting of the Coalition of the Willing. I updated President Zelenskyy and leaders present on two key priorities - support for Ukraine and increasing European defence preparedness.

Given a) Farage's past; b) the expanding story about Russia and former MEPs; and c) media enthusiasm for "what influence is being bought?" questions, if anyone to left of Mussolini is gifted so much as a cup of sugar, why is Reform facing no such questions about Friday's £9m crypto-bro donation?~AA

My wife Bunty & I had the privilege of visiting Nigel Farage in his campaign office during the last election. He was so lovely & allowed Bunters to take a photo of him (shown below). There was absolutely no hint of him exceeding electoral expenses & being involved in fraud. 😊

The penny is dropping. A customs union is the best way turbocharge our economy and tackle the cost of living. Labour MPs who agree with us should vote to back our bill on a customs union tomorrow.

Once again, Russia and USA are allies. Although this time we are fighting to put Nazis back in power. Which is a nuance.

I hear you're an election fraudster as well as a racist now Nigel. 🐢💨

The European Union, our home 🇪🇺 A space of freedom and democracy. A unique achievement for peace and prosperity 🕊️ A stronger Europe is now more important than ever 💪🏻 Let us fight for it. Together. ❤️🇪🇺💚

It’s starting to look like the #EuropeanUnion is the last real stronghold of democracy on this planet. #DefendDemocracy #DefendEU

Being European is a great source of pride for me. Europe has a fantastic mix of cultures and a breathtaking geography. We have a history that beats anything else in the world. From Iceland in the north west to Mariupol in the south east we are all Europeans, and we shall defend our great continent.

New analysis shows: That there are now more people alive in the UK that voted Remain in 2016 than those who voted Leave in 2016. The "will of the people" expressed by direct vote in 2016... has changed.

Police search for Nigel Farage whose not been seen since an unhinged rant about Bernard Manning, It Ain't Half Hot Mum, and The Black & White Minstrals Show as concerns grow over his mental state.. “It’s so strange he didn’t appear on Kuenssberg this weekend for the second week in a row” a PC said

And they have the gall to lecture Rachel Reeves about the economy... 🤮👇

The fact that the most evil and corrupt people on Earth all want to destroy the #EU is one of the clearest signs that it should be defended. 🇪🇺

The only thing that’s changed is our current president is a total moron who’s a lapdog to Putin.

Deform UK’s Hampshire & Solent mayoral hopeful Chris Parry was caught by The Torygraph telling Labour Deputy PM David Lammy to “go home” to the Caribbean where his “loyalties lie”. Lammy was born in Tottenham. The misogynist Parry also called female Cabinet ministers “harpies”.

Here's a picture of Nige Fartrage, enjoying a reunion with all his former schoolmates who have written to fulsomely support his claim he was not a facist at Dulwich College.

Elon Musk is against the European Union being the European Union —he posted this after X (fka Twitter) was fined for violations of the EU’s Digital Services Act.

Everything you need to know about the US’ slow turn against the EU.

I'm really pleased that the accusations against Farage are quite rightly not going away. He appears very, very rattled and deservedly so. This is very long overdue.

Prime Minister of Poland. 🇵🇱

Starmer needs to find the courage to follow his arguments about the failures and costs of Brexit to their logical conclusion. His recent foreign policy speech fell short by continuing to gloss over hard truths, and pretend Britain can keep muddling through.

From the CWS ARCHIVE. 4th June 2024.

Technically, of course, Farage is already boycotting the BBC. The mewling toilet duck can’t keep up with his own whining.
