You are AN ELECTED MP, you doughnut. That makes your earnings OUR BUSINESS.

People are saying they’ve not seen him this angry before, yeah, because he’s not faced accountability before.

He’s completely buckled under a fraction of the scrutiny that other MPs have endured.

I’m fed up with politicians saying we need to “respect” the 2016 Brexit referendum result.

A decision by a narrow majority 10yrs ago, that turned out to be a costly mistake, does not have to be “respected”.

If a democracy cannot change its mind it ceases to be a democracy

​Pope Leo XIV:
​"The world is being pushed toward destruction at the hands of a handful of tyrants."

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Sir John Major, "Brexit has been very damaging"

"Most people think of the economic damage, but that's only part of the argument"

"It has as a country made us weaker, more isolated"

"Before Brexit we were the principle ally of the US, that's debatable now"

"We were also a leading member of the European Union that had 500 million people"

"Both of those have gone'

"We're now 70 million in a world of 9.5 billion"

"And we have considerably less clout, and friendship in times of difficulty, than we had before"

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Here's David Cameron in 2016 explaining that if we leave the EU we'll be economically worse off and so have less money for public services

Here we are in 2026, worse off, and with less money for public services

The reason why the UK is on its arse is not because of Keir Starmer.
A big reason is that too many people believed some bollocks on a bus 10 years ago.

"How on earth have have we ended up in this position?" asks Laura Kuenssberg, who along with Chris Mason, Henry Zeffman and co, have pushed long and hard for us to wind up in exactly this position

✅ Michael Heseltine on 🔥

“Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage should hang their heads in shame for the damage they caused to Britain by leading the campaign that saw it leave the EU.

He said that 10 years on from the EU referendum the “bankruptcy” of their claims that Brexit would bring huge benefits to the UK had been exposed and led voters to believe that it should be reversed.

The British public had been “lied” to in a “heinous crime”.

Brexit was a “self-imposed disaster” and it is time for Britain to “reclaim our traditional role as a major European nation” and rejoin the EU

[Gordon Fielden @GordonFielden]

This is the largest sporting event on the planet, despite what some Americans may believe, and the decision to prevent Africa's leading referee from participating in the World Cup sends an extraordinarily damaging message about the United States and the direction in which it is heading.

I am genuinely astonished that FIFA has not lodged a formal protest with the United States Government and sought intervention to ensure that this referee, who is held in the highest regard within the international refereeing community, is granted a visa to undertake one of the most important roles in world football. For any referee, appointment to a World Cup is among the greatest honours the sport can bestow.

A person's country of birth should never be the sole reason for preventing them from entering a country to carry out a specific professional duty at a specific international event. Particularly when the President of the United States publicly assured the world that participants would be welcomed.

If nationality alone has been the determining factor, then this is a serious stain upon both the tournament and the host nation. It raises profound questions about fairness, equality of treatment and whether political considerations are now taking precedence over sporting merit.

The World Cup is supposed to bring nations together. Decisions such as this achieve precisely the opposite.

Farage has done untold damage to the British economy by being instrumental in Brexit; enormous damage to British society by inflaming ethnic divisions; and incalculable damage to the probity of British politics by countenancing obscene levels of funding from disreputable sources.
