Thanks for all the follows. I will follow back #FBPE accounts. I don't want to follow back too many USA accounts, as don't want my timeline full of American stuff. Please unfollow if that bothers you.

Stephen Kinnock, "It's absolutely clear that the way Brexit got done damaged our economy"

Your reminder that ANY version of Brexit-that is trade barriers and restrictions between the UK and the EU-will make the UK poorer.You can't erect barriers then say it's the same as life without those barriers

Yay. Priceless. The right column at the right time. And a gleefully English two fingers to the haters.

SPOILER ALERT: When Farage says "radical manifesto", he means fascism.

Mishal Husain, "Would you govern for all, because you're not a unifier?"

Nigel Farage, "You govern on a radical manifesto that says the country needs radical reform"

"Of course some people won't like it but that's the way it is"

How did we beat Nigel Farage and Reform in Caerphilly? We stood by our convictions | Rhun ap Iorwerth

Welsh voters have rejected Labour and Starmerite managerialism. By offering hope and not division we showed the populist right can be beaten, says Rhun ap Iorwerth, leader of Plaid Cymru

He knew this question was coming and had plenty of room to devise an answer that avoided criticizing Trump but signaled the UK's approach under a Farage government would be saner, more legal and in line with basic human decency.

It's telling he did none of that.

Roland Smith @rolandmcs.bsky.social · 18h

Farage on Trump and immigration: 'what he has done is amazing'. He dismisses ICE-style raids as 'your media narrative'.

With all the money and effort that Reform threw at Caerphilly, as their most winnable seat, it looks unlikely that they would win elsewhere.

We used to have agreements with 31 countries to return illegal immigrants, but then Nigel Farage campaigned to leave the EU & the Dublin Agreement so that the UK could no longer send back illegal immigrants to these countries, because he needs them to get more votes.

Yes, I hadn't forgotten that, but I thought even she wouldn't go as far as deporting people with a right to be here.

Judith H, #FBPE 🔶️ @musicienne.bsky.social · 2d

Great to hear Zack being clear about their position, but I wouldn't say they have 'leap-frogged' the Lib Dems. Greens may have more members, but Lib Dems still have more MPs, and their position is also pro Rejoin EU.

Tory old timers, including May, need to be speaking out against this atrocity. If they condone this policy, then I'm gob-smacked. (Perhaps I shouldn't be.)

These comments show just how far the Conservative Party has moved away from the fundamental values of decency, tolerance and respect for the rule of law that the vast majority of people in our country hold dear.

Katie Lam, the shadow home secretary saying legal migrants need to be deported (The Times) will be seen by many as the most racist comment we’ve heard in recent years. Why this isn’t headline news is scandalous. Which will translate to many as acceptance and agreement. Britain needs to get a grip.

Chilling in the extreme - under a new national security memorandum, ordinary American individuals can be designated as domestic terrorists - accused of being “anti-American” for normal acts of protest, or opposition to govt policies. WAKE UP, AMERICA. www.treason.io/p/must-read-...
