News 🎉Amazing to accept the Benazir Bhutto Award & speak to @aguribfakim (1st female President, Mauritius), @rosaliaarteaga, (1st female President, Republic of Ecuador), Marie Coleiro (2nd female President, Malta), and Gabriela Cuevas (Congresswoman)& #ChooseToChallenge for #IWD

[Issy Waite @issywaite66]

POV: when you know you won’t get a Labour parliamentary seat so defect to the Lib Dems.

On a serious note, absolutely shameful to run as a Labour candidate, use that to get re-elected, and then immediately defect. Zero respect to the electorate.

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Cecilia Jastrzembska, "I am often asked by eurosceptics: why should we rejoin the EU" @CeciliaEve4

"I always ask them: if we rejoin today, what Brexit benefit would you miss the most"

"Do they the benefit of Brexit red tape blocking our artists going on tour.. Of trade restrictions suffocating our businesses.. Of rising unemployment.. The annual £40 billion hole in our economy.. Or the cost of living/energy/housing/prison crisis seeping into our lives"

"The European project is built on three principles: democracy, equality and rule of law.. And we live in a time where all three are being threatened"

"Those disproportionately affected by Brexit and beyond.. We all deserve better"

"In 2016 the UK voted on a sandcastle of deception and made a monumental mistake.. We have all made mistakes.. We are human.. But you know what the definition of an idiot is? One who doesn't learn from their mistakes"

"Brexit isn't working"

"Rejoining the EU is not just a political decision but a moral one.. We are reaffirming who we are as a nation, a nation or cooperation, collaboration and courage"

"We are the nation that choses hope over fear, fairness over injustice, and celebrate our diversity, not dehumanise those different to us"

"We were safer in the EU.. We were stronger in the EU.. We wore more prosperous in the EU.. We want our star back and we will get it back"

⚡️ Poland to supply the U.S. with its entire stockpile of MIG-29 jets, free of charge.

The planes are then expected to be shipped to Ukraine.

The Polish government asked other NATO members to follow the country’s example.
