@sdfle@JonathanHall_71@NickLovesSpain I'd imagine a relatively low percentage travel PURELY for the culture but so long as tourists are polite and respectful while they're visiting Spain does it really matter if they prefer to sit by a pool most of the time?

The US just voted alongside Russia, Belarus and North Korea against a UN resolution to support Ukraine.
This is a wake-up call for all those cheerleading Trump in our country.
Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves claim to be looking everywhere for opportunities for growth but are ignoring the solution right under their noses.
A new UK-EU Customs Union would turbocharge our economy, tearing down the trade barriers holding British businesses back.
In the 1990s, Siabuwa, a young black rhino, was relocated to escape the poaching crisis in Zimbabwe. Her survival wasn’t just a victory—it was the beginning of a legacy.

At PMQs I challenged the Prime Minister to drop his opposition to a new UK-EU customs union.
With Donald Trump threatening trade wars, we should rebuild ties with our European neighbours and tear down the trade barriers and red tape hurting British businesses.
Negotiating a new UK-EU trade deal with a bespoke customs union is the single biggest lever ministers could pull to turbocharge our economy.
The refusal to even consider it shows a worrying lack of ambition and is holding back British businesses and stifling growth.
Liberal Democrats are preparing to force a vote in parliament - one they hope will stop consumers having to foot the bill for water company bailouts
The party's former leader and environmental spokesperson @timfarron told us what they're demanding

🚨 NEW: Labour MPs have been told to vote down a Lib Dem private members Bill on climate and nature that would require the UK to meet the targets it agreed to at COP and other international summits

@implausibleblog The UK electorate will want to see someone stand up to Trump. Farage won’t, Badenoch won’t, Starmer is too safe. That leaves Davey. Davey vs Farage might be where the electorate go next
If Starmer doesn't take up the offer to join what is essentially a customs union with the EU, I don't see why any pro-European in Britain should continue to support him. He isn't "bidding his time" - he's made up his mind.
Whatever your politics, you have to appreciate that the Lib Dems setting themselves up as the anti-Trump, anti-Musk party is tactically wise. There is a decent sized space in British politics for such a party.

I'm proud to present my 🇪🇺 Youth Mobility Scheme Bill 🇬🇧 – a vital step to give young Brits the chance to live, work, and study across Europe.
The botched Brexit deal robbed them of these opportunities. It's time to fix that and reset our relationship with the EU.
