The flags were sold as “patriotism”. What they’ve delivered is fear: late-night confrontations, mobs gathering in minutes, and police shrugging when violence follows.

The proposals to limit Article 3 are absolutely terrifying. I struggle to think of something that has come out of any UK government which has concerned me more. This must be resisted absolutely.

There has been no debate here among constitutional scholars, historians, political scientists, anyone with a pulse really.
Any telling you that this very straightforward point, one that has been universally accepted for a century and a half, is now an "abstruse" issue is just a liar and a hack.

It's fucking wild how like far-right stuff is being laundered as though it were "progressive" but that's basically just the UK Labour Party nowadays for you. Keir Starmer is the most unpopular recorded Prime Minister since IPSOS began polling it in 1977.

It's so dispiriting that this is what the UK and the EU are finding time to argue about.
This is especially depressing. Perhaps there are multiple reasons why someone might want to live and work in London, and governments should try to give their citizens more freedoms?
