“While each of us (voted Brexit) for different reasons, we all believed that the UK could do a better job of running its own affairs than *unelected officials* in Brussels could."
Ben Houchen... November 2020
Six years later
👇👇👇
Since his ennoblement in Boris Johnson’s 2023 resignation list, Tees Valley regional mayor Lord (Ben) Houchen has claimed more than £25,000 in tax-free daily “attendance” allowances from the House of Lords for 73 days when he hasn’t voted, spoken or performed any recorded parliamentary activity.
“The case for Rejoin must be a case for Europe as our home: a continent…prepared to take on and defeat Russian imperialism, an economic union which can shelter countries from the storm of a global trade war”
A team we want to belong to. Because it strengthens us all.

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro.
It's a loss for Trump.
For Musk.
For Milei.
For Netanyahu.
For Farage.
For Meta and Zuckerberg.
For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters.
And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.
These street dogs never cease to amaze me. I was sure that Birdie was gone.
If you need a huge smile today this will sort you out!
Unbelievable scenes!
WOW! Amy Acton was wecomed like a rockstar in Cleveland, Ohio just days after Vivek's brutal and disturbing ad attack. Look at her feeling the enegy. It's f*cking awesome.
"Trump’s return to power has made the US pivot away from Europe more explicit, while Russia’s war against Ukraine has made the costs of acting alone hard to ignore.
"Britain may have left the EU, but it cannot escape this geography."
“Georgia Without Ivanishvili!”
Thousands have gathered in Tbilisi to protest Ivanishvili’s one-party rule and the ban on opposition parties.
Day 697 of uninterrupted protests in Georgia. #GeorgiaProtests ✊🇬🇪🇪🇺

The best response to Russian aggression and an America we can't rely on? EU membership.
Rejoining the EU is the best way to keep us safe.
Ellie Chowns MP: We must "cooperate with our allies and especially our closest European neighbours".
“Andy Burnham admitted he is considering allowing freedom of movement…
…as pro-EU groups warn Brexit has left a black hole of up to £240bn in economic growth”
And true to form, Farage and the Tories (Philp) respond by being totally dishonest about it…
Freedom of movement with the EU requires EU citizenship. Immigration requires visas.
Talk of ‘betrayal’ and ‘uncontrolled migration’ is the mark of a liar or a fool.

“The storm was really giving it everything it had This was its big chance…an opening in the weather had given it an opportunity to strut its hour n it was building up its role in the hope of being spotted by one of the big climates

Well, well, well….
An analysis of voter registration records reveals Republican operative Scott Presler had 3 out-of-state voters use his Pennsylvania address to vote in the 2024 election.
This is what voter fraud looks like.
"Legal migrant numbers are at a historic low and small boat crossings have halved, yet that didn’t stop anger at asylum seekers spilling on to the streets.
"There is no level of migration low enough to satisfy some people. There is, however, a level of migration low enough to make us all poorer."
“Trump's British apologists are finally starting to calculate… their potential reward for supporting this lame duck President in the US is no longer worth the growing cost to their reputations in the UK”
Too late, Farage. Too much MAGA money. Too much fawning.
