Amazing, the @dailymail.co.uk manages to publish an entire lengthy feature bewailing (!!!!) the exodus of Poles from Britain without once mentioning Brexit. Apparently this outcome (which is surely exactly what they campaigned for in 2016) is all the fault of Keir Starmer.

The great exodus: How Poles are ditching UK for their booming homeland
New statistics reveal that while 7,000 Poles arrived in the year ending last June, 25,000 returned home: a net outflow of 18,000. The UK's total Polish population has shrunk to 750,000.

Danish intelligence accuses US of using economic power to ‘assert its will’ over allies.
Danes have it right. The US is not a reliable ally. It is using tariffs & military threats to secure dominance.
Europe needs closer economic & military cooperation.

They and Reform are primarily aiming their messaging at people who don’t follow Welsh politics which, unfortunately, is a huge constituency….
