Farage cries betrayal over access to fish stocks. But NEVER FORGET he stood down hundreds of Brexit Party PPCs to help Johnson win big in 2019 and it was Johnson who negotiated the access. There's no change to access, just an extension on existing deal for 12 years. If it's on anyone, it's Farage

Starmer should ditch the laughable US-UK Not A Trade Deal, Not Even A Deal and jump towards Europe with open arms.

✅ It's good to hear Chancellor Rachel Reeves say a better trading relationship will be a key part of the UK-EU relations reset.

Our research shows closer alignment on goods and services could help boost the UK economy by 2.2%.

Now let's see these words put into action.

I had an excellent call with President von der Leyen about the road ahead for Canada-E.U. trade.

Canada and Europe are strong, reliable partners. In a shifting global economy, that matters more than ever. We’re ready to secure new transatlantic business opportunities together.

We need to drop the whole conceptualisation of politics that treats public opinion as fixed and politics as a marketing exercise to cater to those fixed opinions. What we see here is the reality of human nature and an example of real, substantial politics taking place.

By the way, ironically one way you can pave the way for building community is DEPEND ON YOUR FRIENDS. Don't just pay your own way everywhere. Ask people to share stuff. And make them feel okay about asking you for favours in return (and make sure that you are there for them if you can be).

Red foxes help to control populations of their prey animals, such as rodents and rabbits. They also disperse seeds by eating fruit. In some areas where foxes had been killed off, rodents increased so much that farmers brought in other foxes. Please be kind. #StopEnglandsFoxHunt #AnimalLove

I’m not going to leave X just yet - I hate that sense of being driven away from a place I used to love. But after one day on here, I already know how much prefer it.

So if you see this and would be kind enough to share it to let people find me, that would be hugely appreciated. Thank you.
