@justdavenow89 A bit?

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

And I’ll name them, the gestapo.

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

Our democracy is under threat. From the Kremlin to Mar-a-Lago, powerful men are trying to destroy our great country.

Our new laws would ban foreign money, block foreign ads, and stop tech giants like Elon Musk buying influence.

We need action now. Only our party is offering it.

In den letzten Tagen steigen meine Followerzahlen wieder an. Das freut mich sehr. Wenn ihr für die Ukraine seid und topaktuell über neue Literatur aus der Ukraine und den anderen Ländern Osteuropas informiert werden wollt, seid ihr bei mir an der richtigen Adresse. ☺️

This is a make or break moment for Labour MPs. As we force a vote tomorrow for a UK-EU Customs Union, leadership hopefuls like Andy Burnham are already U-turning on the EU.

Will they back our vote and fix this Brexit chaos, or keep failing the public? It's their choice.

[John Strak @Johnstrak]

@Tom_Clarke @sales_belinda Unfortunately, they did make some choices. Their policies on the EU, Brexit and tax/VAT have hamstrung them. We all deserve better.

@LizWebsterSBF @AndyBurnhamGM @FennellJW Have you seen his policy on PR? Not what is needed.

[Liberal Democrats @LibDems]

We all know a closer relationship with Europe would turbocharge our economy. Yet the Prime Minister's 'fresh start' is far too weak and unambitious.

It's time for a UK-EU customs union.

This is Mohammad Baghdadi "Baggy" Khan reporting to duty as a newly elected Councillor in the Halliwell ward, Bolton. He looks composed in his Lamborghini Huracán Spyder, worth £100,000-£200,000, it does 19-23 mpg.

He is a member of @TheGreenParty.

@montie @TiceRichard @bbclaurak Shame on you!

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

If Labour is going to spend the next few months arguing about who should be PM, they should at least agree on one thing: these damaging red lines on Europe have to go.

A customs union is vital to grow our economy and to tackle the cost-of-living crisis.

[JBL @johninsouthfla]

If Farage doesn't know the rules on financial disclosures then he is too stupid to be an MP and should be barred. But, of course, he does know the rules.

Repost if you agree. My posts are supressed by X because their algorithms assume I'm a leftie!

[Tim Walker @ThatTimWalker]

Good for the Obsever for leading on this.

[Alethea Bernard @Tush27J]

Chris Mason, Laura Kuenssberg, Trevor Phillips, Sam Coates, Robert Peston and yes you Beth Rigby, all gave Nigel Farage carte blanche to avoid any kind of scrutiny re his £5 Mn 'gift' and his other financial shenanigans.
Appalling bias.
They are a disgrace.

I'll just leave this here

[Anton Spisak @AntonSpisak]

Ten years too late, we might realise that the Brexit referendum wasn’t really about Europe, but about the dissatisfaction of a large swathe of voters with the state of the country and ‘the system’.

The tragedy is that an entire British political class used that disenchantment for its own political ends. They promised voters one thing, delivered another, and never took responsibility for any of it.

[Nick Reeves #RejoinEU #NAFO #FBPE @nickreeves9876]

Please repost if you want the full restoration of our EU Freedom of Movement, which was stolen from us by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.

This is the debate that we have to win if the UK is to rejoin the Single Market or the EU. In 2016 the Remain campaign did not defend our Freedom of Movement because its spineless leaders were frightened of the right-wing press. Our freedom was robbed from us without a debate.

The wave of migration from Eastern Europe is a thing of the past. Thanks to EU membership, Eastern European countries have greatly reduced the economic gap with the UK. The immigration hysteria of 2016 was a panic about a migration surge that was predictably soon going to end, but the wretched Remain leadership failed to make that point. Indeed, given its leadership, it is remarkable that Remain got as much as 48%

[John Strak @Johnstrak]

@racheljanetwolf You miss the point. It’s not about staying in a lane. It’s about democracy. There is nothing democratic about FPTP in a multi party electorate.
