I'm 14, at the beach in my hometown, feeling like "whatever" it so boring, who cares really? And then this woman ran out onto the sand and exclaimed "It's the ocean!" I ask "what?" "I grew up in Colorado. I've never seen the ocean. My God! There's so much water" tears began to stream down her face and I thought "we're on the same beach, but mine is boring and hers is beautiful and if I have to choose ... id rather be in on her beach" as she walked away continuing to exclaim about palm trees and coconuts I thought about how easily time makes us numb to beauty and how I didn't want to live that way anymore. for the rest of my childhood, the beach was very different.
@RachelReevesMP STOP THIS MEANINGLESS TWADDLE!
While tax thresholds remain frozen, people will get poorer EVERY YEAR!
While you refuse to rejoin the SM & CU, the cost of living will remain high.
While you support neoliberal economic policies, austerity will continue.
GET REAL!
Hey @UKLabour here’s a plan:
You announce you’re rejoining the CU.
The frothers froth for a few days.
But SO WHAT?
£ rallies.
Rates go down.
Inflation goes down.
UK SMEs can export to EU again.
There are NO DOWNSIDES. Except your own cowardice.
Labour announcing more investment zones, massive deregulation, privatising NHS, buddying up with mega-corporations and Tory think tanks, pro-Brexit, killing millions of bees with banned pesticides, welfare cuts, no wealth taxation, supporters of genocide, what's the difference between Labour and the Tories?
This is Florida GOP Rep. Laurel Lee. She voted against $20 billion in FEMA disaster relief funding last week as Hurricane Milton is heading towards her congressional district.
RETWEET to let her constituents know that @RepLaurelLee let them down!
The best solution is to give Gibraltar to Spain, Falklands to Argentina, NI unites with the Republic of Ireland, Wales & Scotland become independent and England can happily live with their Brexit forever. What do you think?
In case you missed it ...
Because of Brexit, the EU cut Britain out of its supply chain nextwork and created alternative routes to Ireland. Ireland has benefitted greatly from Brexit, while Britain has had nothing but Brexit grief.
