At least one senior Labour official seems to finally remember they aren't in Reform.
The changes won't just harm economy and country, they'll destroy families and force more people into becoming undocumented, leading to more deportations. They need scrapping not pausing.

The world’s smallest man:

“The person who actually got the Nobel Prize called me and said that she was accepting it in honor of me.

“I did not say then "give it to me." I think she might have, she was very nice.

“I have been helping her along the way, they need a lot of help.

Gutted that I didn't win the Best Actor Oscar this year, despite not actually appearing in any films over the last 12 months. I thought all I had to do was say that I deserved it and they'd give it to me. This has been a gross miscarriage of justice. I mean, who's even heard of Adrien Brody?

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

Teesside’s freeport, initiated in 2021 under Rishi Sunak, has cost £560 million far exceeding the standard £25 million allocation (22 times the standard £25m).
90% profits go to the private sector.
This clearly shows the UK model of State aid post-Brexit is utterly corrupt.

Being a member of the EU was always an advantage for the UK in exports to the rest of the world outside the EU.

David Henig @davidheniguk.bsky.social · 18h

Between 2019 and 2024 in real terms EU exports grew by 11%.

UK exports also grew. By 0.89%.

That's the total. Goods exports were lower in real terms in 2024 than in 2014.

@antonspisak.bsky.social of the @centreeuropeanref.bsky.social, a think-tank, observes that, after Brexit took effect at the end of 2020, Britain’s goods exports have grown less than those of any other economy in the G7 club of rich countries.

It's not enough for the government to "reconsider" new immigration rules. They need to be scrapped altogether.

We now know that any time he wanted Donald Trump could have rung Benjamin Netanyahu and ordered him to stop the destruction of Gaza. He chose not to. Imposing a peace at the barrel of a gun after laying waste does not deserve a Nobel prize.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

By reversing Brexit, I mean it being used as a weapon against them. They should have started explaining the grave mistake on day one.

Well, for a while, they need to propagate this as a narrative for enough time to start turning the tanker around & disarm Farage and Reform. Otherwise, everything they do will be 'reversing Brexit'. Am not sure the EU wants any 'reverse' until Farage is buried.

Starmer blaming #Brexit for tax rises may be accurate but when only 37% of a now disproportionately dead electorate voted for it almost 10 yrs ago, based on undeliverable lies, the questions are why should the rest of us stomach it & where is Labour’s plan to change that? archive.ph/2025.10.10-2...
