"It was the first time I'd ever been targeted for antisemitic abuse in my life. It was also the last time. I have never remotely had anyone else say anything like that to me. It was only after Nigel Farage began denying it that I thought, I've got to say something." — Peter Ettedgui

Today's bit of BREXIT joy: having to apply for an EORI number to get a piece of kit delivered from Germany. I'm feeling less than charitable towards the people who voted for this monumentally stupid act of national self harm.

The same Labour activists who talked about it taking 10 years to rejoin the EU a decade ago are still saying it will take 10 years to rejoin the EU. In truth, their *long-game* bullshit is just an excuse for trying to appease the gammon by doing nothing.

The economy isn't something abstract. It isn't just about offices and factories and businesses. The economy is all of us. We're all part of it. In our work, our private lives, our retirement, our studies, our leisure. So when we hear that Brexit is really hurting our economy, it's hurting all of us.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

I've been out canvassing quite a lot in London lately. Labour's vote has absolutely evaporated.... it is quite extraordinary to go to places where Labour were on 50-60% of the vote at the last locals and find nobody, or virtually nobody, supporting them.

All the people who voted in Reform because they wanted big government efficiencies,
and more money to be spent on pot holes and improving local services will no doubt be thrilled that their new council is spending £75,000 on, er, flags instead. Absolute clown show. 🤡

Reform has suspended county councillor Robert Ford after a complaint was made about him by 'several female members of staff.'
The party said that Cllr Ford refused to engage with the complaints process, so he has had the whip removed pending a disciplinary process.
