There's a whole new genre of comedy opening up in Britain.. extremely warped, vicious, self harming & self defeating. The laughs coming from a dark place of hysterical disbelief. Brexit-hystericalis. ๐
This class of people are expert at milking every given opportunity to its fullest, while lambasting the disadvantaged, also, at every given opportunity, for expecting too much of the state.
Were you aware that Johnson had his school fees paid by the EU - including Eton?
Dad was a European Commission official and because he was working โabroadโ the school fees were paid.
Beside Biden, Johnson will simply appear mean spirited & spiteful, acting against the good of his country for no better reason than further empowering the super rich elite, at unfathomably high cost to everyone else in UK. #BidenHarrisInauguration
Great to read such optimism from the Whitehouse & believe that things will now start to get better. For US first, but ripple effects.. #BidenHarrisInauguration#KeepTheFaith
President Biden assumes office at a time when our nation is facing crises that demand urgent action. Starting today, the President will take decisive actions to address these challenges, prevent other harms, and restore America's place in the world.
Today 14 unions have demanded a pay rise for the NHS.
It isnโt mentioned online on either the BBC or Sky News and got barely a footnote in the 9am News.
Thatโs what the establishment really think about those who have risked their lives so others may live.
No more clapping.
Arnie Schwarzenegger's speech has echoes of uk Remain/rejoin message. This is what's needed, more people of influence, from all quarters, warning of the grave dangers of far-right politics. Trump's disgraceful downfall may be a catalyst for good. #RejoinEU#CapitolRiots
Wow. Thank you, Arnie. When a Republican ex-governor makes the comparison between Trump & the Nazi party, I think maybe we are all *finally* allowed to use the f word - fascist - without fear of a Twitter pile-on
As if things aren't depressing enough right now, Starmer is badly disappointing over half the population who put such faith in him. We can't keep assuming he's playing the long game. Maybe it's time to take him at his word.
#marr#KeirStarmer says he doesn't see a case for rejoining the EU. Personally, I could NEVER vote for a party with that view. And I'm pretty sure I'm not alone! #RejoinEU
Iโm a doctor and run an encrypted email account. Doctors feed me info from the frontline, we anonymise everything to protect staff and I share this with the press. Iโve now decided to share info with my followers too
Pls re-tweet-letโs get the truth out there ๐๐
@EveryDoctorUK
It's naive to say the least, to ignore the growing storm behind you & blithely carry on to your picnic at the cliff edge. Good luck with that! @UKLabour@Keir_Starmer
The very subject of #Brexit (don't mention the 'B' word!) will now be assiduously avoided, even as its destructive impact hits us tsunami like, causing untold, irreversible damage. Both crazy & unforgivable.
Labour's Six Test for backing a 'deal': "The deal must provide โexact same benefitsโ from Europe for the British economy Starmer says, quoting the Brexit secretary David Davisโ own words in the Commons."
So how will Labour vote today, given that these 'tests' are not met?
Great news that the #AstraZeneca#Vaccine has now been approved. Great news that they can produce enough to vaccinate two million people per week. Bad news that we have to rely on the most incompetent Government in human history to organize it. Logistics ain't their strong point!
@nickreeves9876 Not even any acknowledgement by @Keir_Starmer of what we've lost, will continue to lose & the repercussions this hard brexit deal will have upon the lives of ordinary people which @UKLabour purport to represent.
***Very Important***
How should @Keir_Starmer instruct @UKLabour MP's to vote tomorrow on Boris Johnson's EU Trade Deal?
Reasons also gratefully received.
Please, please, retweet far and wide and ASAP.
Thank you.
Can't send parcels for my small business to the EU. The Post Office won't accept parcels, or frank them, because no one has a clue what paperwork will be needed and how much they cost. And it's not even in force yet. We've got 3 days to find out. Brilliant. Fuck business indeed.
Agree. The non-participation of @UKLabour in revealing to the public all the many downsides & corruption of #Brexit, will in the fullness of time be seen as a catastrophic mistake.
Last year the Tories whipped up a no-deal frenzy to make the WA look good. Now they are playing the same trick, and Starmer, and far too many Remainers are falling right into the trap. The comparison to make is between the deal and EU membership, not the deal and no-deal.
Brexit the ever-giving gift:
"LONDON (Reuters) - Europe will see its biggest transfer of share trading in more than two decades when stock exchanges open for business in 2021, with Brexit shifting its centre of gravity away from London"
Hello, I run a network of 26000 UK doctors, and can tell you pretty accurately whatโs going on in the NHS. But I have only just joined Twitter. Could you please re-tweet this to your followers, and Iโll do my best to update you with whatโs happening? Thank you so much, Julia ๐
