Nigel Farage: the man of the people, but only if they are wealthy and from overseas 80% of donations to Reform in past year have come from donors or companies based abroad. In comparison, Labour and Conservatives received 0.15% and 3.57% from donors overseas www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

The public can thank Trump for this - shop price inflation was 2.1% year on year in October, a sharp rise compared with 1.4% in September, and an indication that retailers were beginning to pass on the rising costs of energy and food ingredients since the Middle East conflict broke out

Broadcasters asked earlier whether he could introduce freedom of movement without a referendum, and Andy Burnham said "no". But sources told the BBC that no decision has been made, and the PM's deputy spokesperson later said the government would not "get ahead" of how it consults the public.

British business minister Jonathan Reynolds said on Tuesday Britain and the European Union ​were "finding a way through" concerns over the ‌bloc's proposed "Made in Europe" rules, a source of uncertainty for UK manufacturers and investors.

The loss of freedom of movement due to Brexit affects far more than just people. Losing the four freedoms- goods, people, capital, and services has wide-ranging consequences.

POLL OF THE DAY Has Burnham opened a can of worms by wanting ‘honest discussion’ over Brexit? VOTE NOW www.thesun.co.uk/news/4081059...

If you, your spouse, or your family has been affected by any of the issues below because of Brexit, and you now have a family/partner with mixed family statuses, we would like to hear from you to gather case studies. If you have a story or would like to take part, please message us here first.

1. 🧵 Thread: One of the biggest myths about Freedom of Movement is that it is uncontrolled immigration. It isn’t. EU law gives people the freedom to move to another EU country, but it also sets out the circumstances in which they have a right to remain.

John Stevens (Rejoin EU Party Federal Trust & Conservative MEP 1989-1999) discusses the need to reform the UK's electoral system in order secure its financial future His talk is based on his report for the Federal Trust, 'Proportional Representation for the next General Election & the gilt market'

It's a good news day! Brazil and Serbia have shown that hope is possible – Israel and America, it’s you next Defeats for Bolsonaro and Vučić feel seismic as the midterms approach, and Netanyahu’s fate hangs in the balance

FoM denied means normal family life is denied

Yes, most of the public have no idea how far-reaching the loss of FoM is for British nationals. It's more than not being able to work, marry, live, retire, or study in another EU nation. It deeply affects UK workers, artists, musicians, business people, and, of course, the free movement of goods

Angela Rayner said nothing is off the table for Burnham to undo Brexit harms and that Labour could include related options in its next manifesto. The European Movement UK estimates the UK has missed £180‑£240 billion of growth since leaving the EU in 2020. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Someoen needs the guts to stand up to the tech giants. The EU can "Meta's new terms are clearly anti-competitive. Many business' effectively have no choice but to ​use Meta's services & these conditions would force them to sign away the rights to their digital content ​with no means of opting out"

So frustrating. You'd hope it wouldn't take so long to agree on something as simple as this - Visa quotas, university fees and NHS surcharges remain sticking points ahead of post-Brexit negotiations next month

Burnham: "The reason the small boats crisis has arisen is because we can't return people, and people know we can't do that in the same way that we used to be able to do." But, no one is under any illusion that Burnham would 'rejoin' within this parliament.

It's great to see Andy Burnham and others willing to open up an honest and factual debate on freedom of movement. For far too long, the right has dominated this conversation with fear and misinformation.

Good news as Andy Burnham said he wants an “honest discussion” about the possibility of a return to free movement between the UK and European Union as part of his plans for a new relationship with the bloc. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Great article by #JonDanzig "Brexiters claim the EU is run by unelected bureaucrats. It’s untrue. The EU is a democracy, run by elected politicians." eu-rope.ideasoneurope.eu/2025/02/13/t...

Typical Kuessenberg, she obviously forgets there's the 3 month rule, and most EU citizens coming to UK come to work

We were all EU citizens; now many have mixed family status, and this is keeping and, in some cases, tearing families apart. The 90/180 day EU limit for non EU, and minimum income requirements in UK for spousal visas being a huge issue

Nigel Farage would lose head-to-head contest to every other political leader except Zack Polanski, poll shows Reform leader even beaten by the head of the party that has outflanked his on the right, Restore’s Rupert Lowe www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

What did Brexit Deliver? #BrexitDisaster Time to #RejoinEU

Ten years on from the Brexit vote, Andy Burnham has pledged to set out ‘different options’ for the UK’s relationship with the EU. So what are these options and how will they affect food and drink businesses?

Brussels pitches deeper EU-UK ties ahead of summit EU trade chief stresses relations with Britain are of 'vital importance' in current geopolitical context www.rapporteur.com/news/brussel...

In the run-up to the next UK-EU summit, Andy Burnham has asked for views and evidence from across society about the way forward. Since he floated "going all the way" to Rejoin, a flurry of polls and think-tank reports has followed. Now it's time to have your say! www.stayeuropean.org/dear-andy/

From Donald Trump’s crypto empire to Nigel Farage’s £72m windfall, wealthy cryptocurrency backers are pouring money into right-wing politics, raising questions about whose interests politicians ultimately serve. rightwingwatchlff.substack.com/p/coining-in...

An issue far too many don’t understand. We were all EU citizens but are now mixed status’ & visa requirements separate families Lives “turned upside down” by the demands of rules Some even contemplated taking their own lives because of the “striking” challenges faced by so-called “Brexit couples”

A private security firm, hired by Reform UK and paid for with public money, has been caught abusing teenage girls by handcuffing them illegally. It's just the latest in a long list of cases where it's obvious that Reform UK, and those supporting them, do not wish to protect women and girls...

There can be "no single market a la carte". If Burnham is truly serious about returning to the EU fold there can be no more exceptionalism, no more attempts at cherry-picking. It's time to be honest brokers looking for a win-win. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

It would appear the UK is still unwilling to bend in negotiations for a youth mobility scheme. Another delay looks likely while we quibble over numbers. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

Absolutely awful and to think that so many politicians, particularly Reform want to tie the British people to energy insecurity indefinitely over some ideological obsession to support the oil industry Official forecasts show country will meet energy demand by paying high prices to secure imports

Haha! Trump has been ordered by a US judge to sit for a deposition, or face the possibility of his $10bn defamation lawsuit against the BBC being dismissed. Ever since Trump filed his ludicrous $10bn claim over the edit of a Panorama documentary, the BBC has refused to cow down to his bullying.

The National Union of Journalists has condemned Reform UK for reporting ITV to the police over the broadcaster’s exposé of racism and sexism within the party. leftfootforward.org/2026/10/jour...
