BBC News explain that because of Brexit, Brits will be photographed and have their fingerprints taken when going into the EU, as the UK now is a third country

BBC News forget to explain that the UK helped create these rules when we were part of the EU because we wanted stronger border control

Brexit Bin 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 🇩🇪 @brexitbin.bsky.social · 9h

It'll soon be 10 years since the Brexit ref. So much has changed since then. If Brexit is the cause of our economic problems, as the government now admits, then surely we need to ask ourselves whether we want to carry on down the Brexit road or turn around and head back to the Single Market and EU.

Farage insists ex-Reform UK Wales leader convicted of bribery is ‘bad apple’

Farage said he was shocked by Nathan Gill’s admissions relating to pro-Russia statements Nigel Farage has insisted his party’s former leader in Wales who was convicted of taking pro-Russian bribes was a “bad apple” who betrayed him. The Reform UK leader was in Caerphilly campaigning for his candidate in a forthcoming Senedd byelection when he was asked about his links to Nathan Gill. Continue reading...

Deafening applause as Zack Polanski tells Zia Yusuf that people's concern over immigration is because he spends all his time spreading misinformation and fear.

I wonder why these folks aren’t just showing us the rampant crime?

I mean, if all you have to do is walk the streets of Chicago to witness it, just get some MAGA supporters to start filming the rampant crime so the rest of us can see it, too.

Facts on migration with alt text.

THE ULTIMATE MIGRATION FACTS CHEATSHEET
SAFE PASSAGE

0.7% of the UK population are refugees. Claims that we're being "overrun" are fear-mongering.

£3.3 BILLION This is how much migration brings to UK public finances each year. Migrants contribute in so many ways, from paying taxes to bringing diverse
skills and setting up new businesses.

1 IN 6 people arriving to the UK by small boat arrival is a child. They're the most vulnerable to conflict and trafficking, yet some politicians want to turn them away. This doesn't make any of us safer.

LESS THAN 5% of all migration to the UK is by small boats. Some politicians and media deliberately distort the proportion of these journeys to stir up fear and hostility.

92% of those applying for refugee family reunion are women and children. They're the ones hit the hardest by the lack of safe routes.

1 in 5 NHS worker is a migrant. Migrants aren't the ones causing the NHS crisis - they're helping keep our hospitals, care homes, and GP surgeries running.

I see Reform UK are on #BBCQT again tonight, would one of the other panelists kindly ask

Is it fiscally responsible for Nathan Gill to make anti EU, pro Russia statements in exchange for bribes

But for Nigel Farage to make anti EU, pro Russia statements, without bribes?

The headline should read: Since 2020, Brits could be banned from the EU due to Brexit removing our status, freedoms, and opportunities as European citizens. Now it will be harder to cheat the 90/180 rule.

Also another example of the UK tabloids hating it when the EU takes 'control' of its borders

Brits could be banned from holiday homes under EU's 90-day rule

The EU has ordered member states to apply the 90/180-day rule 'rigidly', meaning Brits who overstay could be hit with hefty fines of up to £8,700 and even ten-year bans from entering the bloc.
