Absolute bollox !! Uk farming has been kept alive by being part of the EU !! The CAP created stable production of certain products , hence kept guaranteed supplies of food at a known cost . Now food policy is left to profiteering corporations destroying farming and food !
edward price@EdwdPrice

@vivamjm @ReformSecYork @CarolineLucas @SaveBritishFood @MrDavidCatt1 @tradeandtillage What then followed were a sequence of internationally agreed trade policies and restrictive national decisions which were detrimental to UK farming. I don’t think any of this was really a Brexit issue.

Brexit cost this country £180 billion a year in lost economic output, enough to build 140 new hospitals every single year. The people who did it are now asking for your vote again. #Brexit #NigelFarage #ReformUK

Taylor: The day that I decided to quit that administration was the day when a mentor of mine from capitol hill had died. His name was John McCain. The flags were at half staff around the country, and the president was trying to call us in Australia on the other side of the world, to say, not put out a statement in honor of John McCain, but to say, raise the flags back up. I don't care if you agreed with John McCain or disagreed. It didn't matter like Bob Mueller, he served this country in uniform. He was a sitting united States senator. He deserved to be honored with the flags at half staff—for the president of the United States to be so petty, so small and petty, to tell us to raise the flags back up in an act of active dishonor, tells you everything you need to know about that man and his lack of integrity and character.

It is difficult to accept the basis upon which these so called facts are presented. In modern times, the two most demonstrably unsuccessful Prime Ministers this country has endured are Boris Johnson and Liz Truss. No other Prime Minister, including Sir Keir Starmer, approaches the scale of those failures. What has followed is a narrative constructed and sustained across major broadcasters, including the BBC, ITV, Sky News, and GB News, alongside sections of the wider press, the persistent chorus of voices from within the Conservative Party, and the influence of Reform UK. Within that narrative, criticism of Sir Keir has been constant from the moment he assumed office. That scrutiny stands in stark contrast to the latitude afforded to his predecessors, particularly at times when serious errors were made and rules were plainly disregarded. The effect is cumulative. A narrative is repeated, reinforced, and amplified until it presents itself as established fact, regardless of whether it withstands scrutiny. It is this constant echo that many have grown weary of, particularly when it appears so plainly unbalanced in its application. It is not unreasonable to conclude that such imbalance reflects editorial inclination rather than objective assessment. A Labour Prime Minister does not sit comfortably with certain proprietors or institutions, and that discomfort appears to shape the tone of coverage. Yet one fact remains beyond dispute. Sir Keir secured a decisive electoral mandate, a landslide victory that confers both authority and responsibility. Those who supported him expect that mandate to be honoured through steady and effective governance. To date, there has been no failure of the kind so readily alleged. What we are witnessing instead is the noise of political transition. Meanwhile, the Conservative Party finds itself diminished, its relevance increasingly in question, and its future uncertain. It would therefore be welcome if sections of the press returned to the task of reporting events as they are, rather than seeking to shape them into something they are not.

After winning one of the biggest landslides in UK election history less than two years ago, Keir Starmer became the most unpopular prime minister on record. But how did that happen? @lewis_goodall is on a mission to find out.

Following Monday’s visit by the Reform party and its leader, Nigel Farage, the club would like to issue the following statement: Ipswich Town Football Club has, over several years, hosted representatives from a range of political parties. The club remains apolitical and does not support or endorse any individual or party. The club will continue to engage with representatives from across the political spectrum as part of its role within the community. Ipswich Town is proud to be an inclusive, diverse, and welcoming organisation that supports all members of the local and wider community. This commitment remains unchanged.

The legacy of Mueller is if you do diligent methodical work on a damning report, trusting to institutions to do the right thing, damned liars will just tell damned lies about your work and the lies will stand, because institutions won't confront power and nobody does the reading.

Tesco are making £4bn a year in profit. About 50% of their staff are on Universal Credit. Why don't we crackdown on this unneeded benefit for billionaires?
