38d.gs/9ixt I can’t believe that this is allowed to happen. Ofwat/EA/DEFRA/Government grow a spine for gods sake

The EU Referendum was a maelstrom of misinformation. Why is it excluded from the review of foreign interference in our elections? As ever @bylinetimes.bsky.social asks the right questions… bylinetimes.com/2025/12/19/r...

"The lives of the Palestine Action-affiliated remand prisoners now on hunger strike are at growing risk. On Friday, two reached day 48 without food. (In 1981, one IRA prisoner – 29-year-old Martin Hurson – died on the 46th day.)" www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

How a proper UK/EU reset might look, à la Switzerland, is described in this great piece by @matthewharries.bsky.social ukandeu.ac.uk/thinking-swi...

Let’s hope Erasmus is just the start. Further talks on defence and a customs union are on the agenda, ideas even mentioned in the right wing MSM as Brexit becomes a dirty word even with its cheerleaders www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Kemi Badenoch is vile and will do anything to push her racism. 87% of Sexual Violence is carried out by White people in the UK. She pretends it is 0%.

No words. Pretty much all my female friends have been assaulted at one point or another; at school, in the forces, just on a night out. It wasn't immigrants doing those things because, frankly, you didn't get many of them in rural Yorkshire. It was men. Fucking hell

As a Head Teacher I often heard people say, you can’t do this or that because….blah blah. I hear the same from politicians. Doing the right thing is not necessarily convenient or easy. But that is no excuse for not doing it. Brexit is just wrong The country is hurting. Put it right.

I’m as happy & relieved as the next pro European & British patriot to rejoin the Erasmus scheme, this will help our disadvantaged young people. However, this has cost us £200m. A scheme we were already in, a scheme we could’ve stayed in? Boris Johnson’s destruction. He should be in prison.

I'm extremely critical of Keir Starmer & Labour and their 'make Brexit work'. A fundamental error! However, congratulations to the UK on rejoining #Erasmus. Good job by Nick Thomas-Symonds, EU Minister. Now stop being cowards and go for #RejoinEU. You might even win the next GE. 🇪🇺🇬🇧

Pitting nature protection against house building won't solve the housing crisis - setting a social housing target, investing far more directly in supporting social housing, and ensuring all building meets nature protection and climate crisis goals will.

Great! Now do a Customs Union!

38d.gs/jrbk The Lords are trying to block the Assisted Dying Bill. If you saw my friend with MND you would want him to have this opportunity to die with dignity. Please sign the petition

This is nonsense from Blue Labour. There are now 8 million more Remainers than Leavers – and that's without any of the main parties arguing for the benefits of EU and Single Market membership for the last 9 years. To say we should keep a destructive policy due to cowardice is crazy! #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

Once more for the haters...

As the president of a Surrey WI group I am absolutely disgusted by this www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Glorious, cathartic, taking no shit at all, Stewart Lee. Brexit: “like someone stepping round a massive pile of dogshit on the living room carpet. Every day. For nine years.” If only all our media could be as ruthlessly challenging as this. www.thenerve.news/p/stewart-le...

Due to an admin error, we have lost our @oxfordforeurope.bsky.social account. (As you can see that account hasn’t posted for a while). So - after many attempts with the Bluesky team to regain the account - this is the new account. If you see this, please could you repost and follow back? 🙏

Jonathan Freedland finally says it: Britain is drowning bc there’s a Brexit-shaped hole in the roof and Labour refuses to fix it. Reeves can juggle taxes but nothing improves until we face the truth. We’re poorer bc of Brexit. We stay poor if Labour protects it. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Seems like a good day to post this... #Refugees #Asylum

Listening to Steve Reed explain on the radio today that he can't say what Mahmood's plan means for kids of people who give birth after they've been granted asylum because that's a hypothetical Q govt can't be expected to answer right now made me think these reforms are going to unravel quite fast

"Migrants are also likely to be net fiscal contributors. Far from draining our welfare system, migrants are supporting the British state’s solvency." While @lgilbert.co also argues that a collapse in immigration will harm the UK’s economic prospects ukandeu.ac.uk/lower-migrat...

Recently there's been a coordinated effort by some to talk down London, because it suits their political agenda. The truth must hurt for them - because London has once again been crowned the greatest city in the world. If, like me, you love London, then my message is this:

I am appalled by this. Totally inhumane. Trumpesque. If ever there was a time for a U-turn, it is now. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Oh really? By whom for god’s sake? You couldn’t make it up www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Keir Starmer needs to wake up and fix our broken voting system before the next election, or he risks letting Nigel Farage into Number 10. We will keep fighting for fair votes to make sure every voice is heard.

"Proportional Representation [is] no longer the subject of an abstract discussion on the margins, but an urgent and compelling proposition supported across our party." Great piece in @renewaljournal.bsky.social by Labour MP @annadixonmp.bsky.social. Read in full: renewal.org.uk/blog/eletc/

It is painfully and astonishingly obvious that to correct course we need a few simple things. A wealth tax followed by gradual tax rises for the wealthiest. Nationalisation of industries that should never have been privatised. Reform of Voting. Scotland and Wales must decide their own paths too.

What a hideous man he is. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Farage: epic grifter

Brexit was not a one-off hit. It’s bleeding us money and lost opportunity every day we stay in it.

So much pettiness by the Labour government. My dear friend who lives with MND waited 3 years for a new Motability car while his old car was a literal bone shaker (believe me, I drove it). 3 bloody years it took to get a new one because ‘there’s no funding’. Well - there’s even less now

More than 15% of people who voted for Brexit are dead. Only 4% of people who voted against it are. It is time for another vote, even if opinions haven't changed, they would lose 55-45%

youtu.be/hywy0USIxVA?... You are a star ⭐️ Sadiq @london.gov.uk Our Star ❤️

Gary Neville talking sense as ever. The current proliferation of St George and Union flags in our streets is not about patriotism. It is about fuelling racist discord and anger and is being applauded by the likes of Farage and Badenoch www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Farage wants to remove those who have lived in this country for many years Decent people wouldn't do that Decent people don't vote Reform

Just a reminder of the brilliant folk at Bylines.

If, like us, you're frustrated with inauthentic vapid MSM - -then do back the Bylines Network to bring a new type of grassroots media into the landscape, with monthly 300,000-400,000 article reads & millions of social media + search engine impressions. 💪

This. With bells on. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

MASS WORLD PROTESTS THREAD:👇🧵 The Revolution Will Not Be Televised. While 90% of media (owned by 6 billionaires) were focusing on getting teachers fired for calling Kirk a nazi… there were mass protests all over the world! Did you hear about any of them? I dug up some videos:👇🧵

Is it just possible that Labour are finding a backbone? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Yet another myth that has been fabricated by the right wing media. It’s high time that yer average Brit learned the truth about stuff they are fed on a daily basis. But how?

Now what does this remind me of?🤔

Another publication worthy of calling itself journalism. Unlike the Daily Rags, the BBC, Sky, etc, etc, etc…

Black Shirts in the USA. We can’t let yesterday’s racist London March and this s**t in California become normalised

If I were the UK Government I would simply not route all my communications through the platform whose owner just called for regime change in Britain and said "fight back or die"
