I’ve just signed this petition calling out Evri for their shocking service & treatment of drivers. It’s demanding Evri review & improve their pay policies so couriers don’t resort to cutting corners & our parcels make it to the right place. Add your name? act.38degrees.org.uk/act/Evri-pay...
Evri, pay your couriers properly so drivers won't have to cut corners and our parcels will actually make it to the front door

Are there no depths of untruth and divisiveness to which this Tory leader won't stoop to appeal to the far-right vote?

Great to have such an enthusiastic support for rejoining Erasmus from the Vice Chancellor of Oxford University on #t4today
No stupid questions about whether this was anti-Brexit.
Just unequivocal celebration of the chance to broaden our horizons again. A step on the road back to sanity.

Given the BBC is publicly funded, this is Donald Trump suing you & me.
It’s a pathetic cry-bully attack on journalism by a wannabe dictator & an attack on every British person.
And our far right politicians & pundits are cheering him on, of course. #r4today

Again these people aren't patriots.
They hate our country and are allied to others who hate it too.
Nothing will ever be achieved by seeking to appease them

Reform's 'no enemies to the right' reflex should be a huge electoral millstone round their necks as they're cosying up to fanatical white supremacists and neo-nazis, and that's not where the British people are ever going to be.

I saw this and had to check it wasn't faked or a spoof. Sadly, it is real.

This country knowingly put evil in the White House. This great, good, decent country knowingly put someone who is evil in power. Americans knowingly voted for an evil monster. And so to remind you once more - this Trump era has never been about Trump. It’s always been about us, about us as a people.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.

Staggering - the effort and resource *still* being invested in keeping the Brexit shitshow on the road.
No one’s held to account.
No one’s fallen on their sword.
No one’s got the guts to really speak out.
So, on we go, protecting this huge and ruinous lie, because telling the truth is too difficult.

👏🏽"The President and the Brexiteers share a fear of strangers... Trade, in [Trump's] view, is other countries draining our wallets. Immigration is other people stealing our jobs. International treaties are handcuffs limiting sovereignty." 🎯~AA
