Brexit was sold as a lie, and the numbers prove it. Hearing the Chair of the Business and Trade Committee, Liam Byrne MP, speak so openly about the damage of Brexit is refreshing. Now, the Government should take action, to ensure no more damage can occur to our economy.

Funny how Robert Jenrick, Reform’s latest signing, says “Britain is in decline” ,considering he helped run it as a Tory minister under May, Johnson,Truss &Sunak.
At this point, Reform looks less like a fresh start and more like a reunion tour for the people who caused the decline in the first place.

Reform UK are presenting themselves as an insurgent political party, yet their adoption of former Conservatives shows they are nothing more than the 'Tories in disguise'.

Didn’t seem difficult when the likes of Darren Grimes were campaigning for Reform UK during the local elections saying waving the magic Reform wand would fix everything.
They criticised local councils across the country for doing exactly what they are now.

The UK government has said it will rejoin the Erasmus+ programme in 2027, but many people in the UK still think it's just a student exchange programme for universities. They couldn't be more wrong. It is much more than that. Here is a reminder.
