Will Conservatives recognise rebuilding should focus on the huge number of seats they're about to lose to Labour rather than the few to reform?

@moylato Often international =/= European? Plenty of us can't vote even if we wanted to.

@WillHayCardiff As an aside, it looks like Mick Antoniw is evolving into David Melding.

I sense a few misdirected questions heading towards @rivm.

[Craig Winneker @CraigWinneker]

Maybe if they renamed it?

The latest Telegraph headline stack is like found poetry.
Truly you couldn't have dreamed up a better juxtaposition if you tried.

Doom, gloom, and hollow Brexit cheerleading. The perfect trifecta.

Magnificent.

“‘goose pulling’ and attempting to decapitate roosters will in future only be allowed using animals that died a natural death”

While the @EU_Commission's proposal to revise the 🇪🇺 #REACH Regulation is expected in November, many controversial elements are still under debate, explained @BCWBrussels Senior Managing Director @LawrieMcLaren yesterday at @TheBPF's seminar on REACH and the #Plastics Industry.

[UK Mission to the EU 🇬🇧🇪🇺 @UKMisBrussels]

MEPs @MariaSpyraki and @spietikainen are once again leading the conversation on chemicals. Today's topic is the development of a legislative framework for endocrine disruptors, hosted by @ESEndocrinology ⚛️

[Jan Jambon @JanJambon]

Vlaanderen en Wales gaan nog meer samenwerken op alle vlakken waar beide deelstaten voor bevoegd zijn. Dat staat in de overeenkomst die First Minister @MarkDrakeford en ikzelf vandaag in Cardiff ondertekenden.

[Elisabeth Laird @ElisabethLaird]

Looking forward to hearing thoughts on the Island of Ireland after five decades of EU membership with @WalesGovernance, @_WHEB_ and others this evening.
