Time to admit the truth: Brexit has been an unmitigated economic failure, says The Telegraph.

Brexit Effect:

UK GDP down 8%
Investment down 18%
Productivity down 4%
Employment down 4%
Immigration not cut
No trade benefits
No regulatory freedom

Why do some still vote for Farage?

Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. Even Republicans in Congress are beginning to revolt against him. He's not all powerful.

A tyrant can exercise tyranny only insofar as the objects of his tyranny continue to allow it. Remember this.

We know the Government is listening.

How? Because we recently got a letter from the Minister for the Middle East in response to our massive petition demanding an end to UK support for the Israeli military in Gaza.

Can I let you in on a little secret?

Billionaire philanthropy isn’t charity.

It’s PR to distract you from low wages, labor exploitation, and a tax system that’s rigged for the rich.

This is another Tory defect to ReFuk.

You have to dig through two stories to identify the “racist slur”.

“No chinky spies for me!" in WhatsApp messages.
Somewhat depressing to read a story about someone using a “racial slur” which does not say what the slur was. BBC might think they are being sensitive, but what they are actually doing is letting the Reform member off the hook. Tell us what she said.
Just shows Reform are not capable of behaving like adults

Reform would be an economic disaster for this country as well making us a pariah

Reform creates division and hatred just like the Nazis from the 1930s

But we'll welcome former Tories Jonathan Gullis, Danny Kruger, Lee Anderson, Nadine Dorries, Ann Widdecombe, Lucy Allen, Jake Berry - the former chair of the Tories, for God's sake - Andrea Jenkyns, Maria Caufield, Lia Nici ... 20 of them so far.

They should never be forgiven. Except those ones.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

It's decided.

Europe is closing the tap on Russian fossil fuels once and for all.

Our #MarsExpress spots a strange shape on Mars, formed as a space rock collided with the planet's dusty surface.

It's known as a 'butterfly crater' but we see a walnut, an insect, the Eye of Sauron, or perhaps a moth... what do you think?

This - from a gov.uk release on the UK-US pharma deal - is not true. At the moment the US has not imposed tariffs on pharmaceuticals, and if it does this agreement does not guarantee the UK will definitely be exempted. It might improve the chances a bit. www.gov.uk/government/n...

I notice that Farage says that Reform will do a reverse takeover of the Tories before the next General Election. In which case, I hope that Cymru will tell the London government that we shall be off!

It seems that Farage’s key aide and “like a son to me” George Cottrell has been frontman for Premier League billionaire’s betting syndicate, lawsuit claims. He‘s also been in the inner circle of the Brexit Party and ReFuk despite his 🇺🇸 conviction for wire fraud

It's all bad but hadn't seen the bit where Farage says:

"The European Union is the prototype for the New World Order."

That is a seriously, deeply problematic term that taps into Illuminati and antisemitic conspiracy theories.

How the fuck did this man direct the course of our politics?
We kept the receipts. These comments, taken together, paint a picture of the man he is today.
