@areyoflight As one who voted remain I find these comments totally counterproductive. This actually shows the EU at it's worst when incompetence and bureaucracy leads to stress for members of friendly 3rd country nations . UK Canada etc.
English
Dear Brexiteers, this is what YOU voted for. 👀
You campaigned to leave. You won. You triggered Article 50. You got your blue passport.
Now you’re a third country national on EU soil and you have to queue like one.
Brexit means Brexit, right?
FAFO 🇬🇧💀

@benjaminbutter Ah so how do the rest of Europe do it - in most cases without making people work till they drop ? (67/68 / 69?) .
English
Every serious person knows the triple lock is impossible to sustain and setting us on course for a nearly £200bn a year bill. And yet any suggestion of reality to the P&O cruise brigade unleashed entitled fury. Someone needs to stand up to these retirement communists.

If, like me, you were born in 1956, you’ll receive almost £300,000 more in benefits than you’ll pay in taxes in your lifetime State Pensions make up a huge chunk of that Long term, we simply can’t afford to sustain the Triple Lock’s generosity Blog: desmondswaynemp.com/ds-blog/1956/?…

@Eyeswideopen69 I voted remain but this level of incompetence sums up all the bad things about the EU . No friendly country be it Canada or UK should have people treated like this .
English
Nope.
The EU is protecting its borders, and we are merely third country migrants.
The consequences of leaving the club are simply catching up with us.
It’s what the simpletons voted for — we just have to suck it up until sanity prevails and we rejoin.
English
@paullewismoney I voted remain but this border incompetence sums up all that's bad about the EU . There are good points as well but it's an institution that somtimes appears to be doing it's best to not to be liked
English
Which way did you vote? It was on the ballot paper! bit.ly/4thLu8s Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union and face three hour passport queues, missed flights and more expense.
English
@michaelwhite I'm no Bros fan but Starmer doesn't seem to believe in anything . Even the few good policies have been done on 'flip flop' .
English
No contest. Starmer isn’t very good, but Boris the rogue deserves little credit for anything. He didn’t even believe in Brexit
𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫@Matt_Pinner
Do you believe Boris Johnson was a better Prime Minister than Keir Starmer?
English
@andrewhesselden On what terms ? That was the weakness with the Brexit Referendum and with these polls would we get our own terms back or would we have to take on the Euro ?
English
63% of Brits would now vote to rejoin the EU.
That’s not a marginal shift. That’s a country that’s changed its mind.
The question isn’t “why talk about rejoining?”
It’s: why are we still pretending this hasn’t happened?

@samgibson1066 @SimonCalder What ever your thoughts on Brexit incompetence is incompetence (I voted remain )

122 easyJet passengers were left behind at Milan after their Manchester flight took off with only 34 on board, due to EU entry-exit system delays.

@DesmondSwayne And yet nearly every country in Europe pay their pensioners better .

@LeeHurstComic @jemmm85517813 How many serious crashes have they been involved in ? (I am genuinely interested as I do not think electric is the full answer )
English
@jemmm85517813 You have ignored my point about switching off wind turbines when demand is low and still paying for it.
There have been no explosions from Hydrogen cars in the UK.
English
I would buy a hydrogen car if the refuelling stations existed.
If the govt spent the tiniest fraction of EV subsidies on building them we could get going.
I think people would switch to them far more quickly than to EVs as the refuelling times are the same as petrol.
We would be energy self sufficient in no time.
Like everything, with scale the costs will drop.
We currently switch off wind turbines and pay the operators to do so when there is no demand. These could be diverted to create hydrogen instead.
Likewise excess solar during the day.
Far more sensible than building battery farms.
English
@LeeHurstComic You may well have a point BUT has the technology advanced to allow prevention of such as this ? (I would hesitate to be in a crash with electric sparks) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindenbur…
English
@hugorifkind Your right nothing has been shown as to why the government might make such a decision - now overturned by the courts to date - why do you think they made it (on the same basis suffragettes would have been terrorist organisation)?
English
I'm not sure why this is being so widely reposted when it is flatly untrue. I say this as someone who was and is opposed to the banning of P.A. but they were banned for what they did, not what they said. And I've seen zero evidence (or, until now, suggestion) that the Israeli govt demanded it.
Saul Staniforth@SaulStaniforth
Carlson: "it is a crime for which you can be arrested.. criticising Israel. You say you're for Palestine Action, you can be arrested.." Derbyshire: "That is not true.." "What is not true about that?" "Palestine Action is a proscribed group. It is banned" "Why is it banned?"
English
@sportmarketing1 Do you realise how counterproductive all these 'He's the best " He is the most wonderful " evidence free statements truly are (seriously) .
English
@Heidi_Labour And what is the chance of getting the parking space outside your terraced house in a busy street ? (These things surely have to be thought through)
English
We're cutting the cost of charge-point installation.
It's never been cheaper and easier to own an electric vehicle.
We're acting to support motorists as we see high and fluctuating prices at the pumps.

English
@londonHenryGB Oh I agree it's more bizarre at the upper rate but for a marginal rate to double around the point when wages are considered 'normal' perhaps has the greatest impact / injustice. A debatable point however .
English
@GhostFraser It’s deffo worse than that.
Progressive tax is one thing
20% -> 40%
But this is what it actually looks like
20% —> 40% -> 60% -> 45%
Weird cliff edge, not good policy.
English
It was introduced in 2010 as a temporary measure.
The threshold has NEVER risen.
And still stands 16 years later.
Any tax policy that makes people work less, not take a promotion, or force pension contributions is bad policy.
Be done with it.

@KirstieMAllsopp I doubt we vote for the same party but you are talking lots of sense recently all the best

@mihangelsiencyn @Keir_Starmer These are example free statements 'compassion' ... a man who wanted to starve the disabled ?
English
Total agreement. Many people seem to be unable to judge character. They appear to be unable to recognise diligence, resilience, compassion, wisdom, resolve and true service. I am so glad @Keir_Starmer is my prime minister.
Maggie Smith@MSmith58282
@DAaronovitch That is an absurd statement “No one likes him”. I DO LIKE SIR KEIR STARMER, OUR DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED PRIME MINISTER. I admire him for his diligence and competence and grit. For his ability to get on with the job with all the crap like yours that has been thrown at him.
English
@DavidMcGregorBN Because this massive monstority will take up 6.25M of agricultural land to provide energy for up to a small town of 180K people (approx 18 SqM Southend) . SO 1/3rd of inhabited space needs added for solar mega farms . London would need 200 SQ MILES .
English
We’re seeing the effects of Britain being overly reliant on international markets for gas and oil. This is essential infrastructure to make us more independent.
Cheaper bills and true independence, how can you be against this?
The Telegraph@Telegraph
☀️ Ed Miliband has approved Britain’s biggest solar farm despite objections from nearby residents who likened it to Chernobyl. It will cover seven square miles of farmland in solar panels, an area 10 times greater than London’s Hyde Park. 🔗: telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…
English
@ret_ward @reformparty_uk No but the nations share in the profits at these high prices will alleviate the financial strain .
English
This is typical of the energy illiteracy of @reformparty_uk fanatics. North Sea oil production will not affect global oil prices.
Roger Helmer ☀️🏴☠️@RogerHelmerMEP
EMERGENCY! Brent crude hits $147. Miliband must now approve Rosebank & Jackdaw. Or Starmer must fire him. share.google/oRncThhoBGW1dZ…
