Unfortunately for @LizWebsterSBF, she yet again undermines her own argument -by not reading what she posts and so making ill-informed arguments.

The UK is ranked 8th in this passport index - higher than 21 of the 27 EU member states.

It is not Brexit at all.

Rest in peace Anne Widdecombe. One of Britains last conviction politicians.

I met her once - she looked me up and down and with a look of motherly concern - said.

“Are you sure they won’t take you back into acting?”

[Darren Grimes @darrengrimes]

Nobody has the right to live their lives being protected from offence, said Ann Widdecombe to an Oxford chamber of students that needed to hear it. God love her.

"This is a gimmick" from a man who is only an MP cos he forced a by-elction when one not needed, all to force an internal LP coup to dump one prime minister & allow his own coronation. Now that is what I call a gimmick.

People who think we should have more government should pay 60% basic rate income tax.
If they want it, they can fucking pay for it

Independence, not devolution!

There are no words that can describe the extent to which I loathe this cancerous parasite, @BernieSanders. He has achieved nothing in his entire career whereby he has relied on the taxpayers to fund his utopian delusional revolution.

[Roger Helmer ☀️🏴‍☠️ @RogerHelmerMEP]

You’re wrong, Anna. UK economic performance in the ten years since Brexit has matched France, and been better than Germany. No sign of any negative effect from Brexit. And alignment with the EU would hobble AI, our most promising economic sector.

This is rejoiner activism 101.

1. Add a self-selecting poll in a pro-EU news outlet
2. Tell everyone in your echochamber to vote in it
3. Pretend the result you personally rigged means something

[spiked @spikedonline]

Never forget how the elites responded to Brexit. They called us racists, fascists, pig meat (gammon). They did everything in their power to overthrow our votes. It was one of the most sickening assaults on democracy in our history, says Brendan O’Neill

Advocates of rejoining the EU are by their very nature undemocratic.

Arguing for a rigged vote that intentionally ignores the majority, and wanting to rely on the opinions of those who quite literally don't know what they are voting for as are too young and uneducated to know.

[Britain Unbound @BritainUnbound]

The Rejoin campaigners have lost their 10th anniversary window of opportunity, and you can tell they're livid about it.

⚫ Their petition had 20% fewer signatures than last year
⚫ Their march had <1500 people
⚫ The polls consistently show Brits don't want EU obligations

Electing Sadiq Khan as Mayor of London has been an act of enormous self-harm.

Reminder: Brexiteers never promised the end of inflation - and it is ludicrous to suggest otherwise.

Food inflation in the UK has been *less* than it has in the EU, and thousands of tariffs have been removed on imported goods.

So food *is* cheaper than it otherwise would be.

[Britain Unbound @BritainUnbound]

"Many" Britons don't own homes in Europe.

A tiny minority do. Owning a second home overseas is a foreign concept to the average Brit who can't afford their first home let alone another one overseas.

Andrew argues for a tiny sliver of society - and doesn't care about the rest.

[Dan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @Kingbingo_]

Why not simply pick one of the Labour MPs with extensive business or finance experience, preferably both?

Oh wait...... there are no Labour MPs like that. Because no one who understands business or economics is a socialist.

[Vodka & Seledka 🇬🇧 @seledka_vodka]

In 2016 I voted Remain. Straightforward self-interest: my life ran on the EU freedom of movement and freedom to work. The person pouring my coffee or fitting my bathroom didn't need to sound like me, and if anything I'd take Polish builders over white British ones fifty times over - better work, cheaper price, none of the fleecing.

Despite which, if that referendum came round again in 2026, I'd vote Leave.

Not because I've turned on continental Europe. The opposite. I want trade deals, military cooperation, AI and cybersecurity partnerships, counter-terrorism coordination - maximum cooperation with the European Union as an organisation and with European Union member states as countries. Britain is a small state in an age of intensified global competition; we need alliances, and a divided Europe squabbling internally is exactly what Russia and China want.

None of this requires EU membership.

What leaving the European Union is meant to deliver - what it COULD deliver - is the capacity to govern as a fully sovereign nation. That is where we've failed, catastrophically. Brexit wasn't the disaster. The Conservative governments since 2016 were the disaster. Too busy with internal scandals and parliamentary pantomime to do anything beyond the bare logistics of extraction. No plan to compensate for lost trade efficiency, no plan to actually USE the sovereignty we'd recovered.

It’s simple. A decade in a space leaves an astronaut’s muscles atrophied; stepping out doesn't fix it, exercise does. Our sovereign decision-making atrophied inside the European Union, and after Brexit we never bothered rebuilding it. We just stood in the airlock complaining that walking was difficult.

So I'd vote Leave now because the problem was never the destination. It was that we refused to walk once we arrived.

I had a conversation with a Labour supporting friend at the weekend. She’s far from nuts, not overly political, just instinctively pro ‘being nice’ and ‘looking after the unfortunate’.

The long and short of it is that she has no understanding whatsoever of business or the economy. She sees Britain as a very rich nation but with almost all the wealth trapped in a vault somewhere, with ‘billionaires’ controlling the keys. The government’s job, in her eyes, is to unlock that vault and shovel as much cash to ‘unfortunates’ as possible.

When I point out that crippling taxes on businesses and individuals inhibit growth she just agrees with me and suggests those taxes would be better if they were only aimed at the really wealthy. It’s incoherent but most of all it relies on a worldview that the left have carefully constructed so that they can give money to their clients. It’s going to end in disaster. Arguably it already has.
