All good, but point 2 requires the U.K. to embrace Freedom of Movement once more. That will be the battleground, and today's poll showing immigration the second biggest concern for voters MUST be tackled. Winning hearts and minds back in favour of FoM is the crucial first step on the journey to SM.

Keir Starmer is talking about closer alignment with Europe, so here are three simple resolutions for 2026, keep the promises on EU relations, take real steps towards the Single Market and Customs Union, and listen to the public that wants closer ties.

Wealth in the UK is extremely concentrated at the top: over half belongs to the richest 10%, while the richest 1% control over a fifth by themselves. But the bottom half of the population – nearly 34 million people – have less than 1/20th between them. This is bad for all of us. It has to change.

New reporting confirms it: the Ukraine “deal” is more about making money for Trump’s cronies than it is about a lasting peace in Europe.
Is there ANYTHING that this administration won’t exploit for their own personal gain?
