describing women who clean and run a house, look after multiple children and source and prepare food for a spouse as “not working” is surely one of the most successful conspiracies of the 20th century

Fake "Sovereignty" & Brexit extremism hit reality.
UK will follow EU standards & still no food checks at UK borders. Time to cure the Johnson hangover & #rejoinEU!

“UK ministers are set to announce a further delay to post-Brexit border controls on animal and plant products coming from the EU, amid fears that extra bureaucracy on imported goods will fuel inflation.”
Brexit creates more red tape & increases costs. Rees-Mogg got a knighthood.

@jessphillips That would be only way it could be defendable, UK Market only, % profits to sovereign wealth fund, reinvested in UK services/welfare. Support legacy fossil fuel vehicles in UK in transition to manage supply shocks & maintain competitiveness, price capped at cost+fair return.

So has Rishi Sunak made an agreement that this new oil and gas will only service UK market and therefore not be sold on the international market and we will then buy it back? Or is he lying?

We agree.
So do Labour voters, Labour members, Labour CLPs, Labour affiliated Unions, Labour conference, and the general public too.
And Labour just said FPTP isn’t working.
Next acknowledge PR as the solution.
Then manifesto

Our electoral system, First Past the Post, robs millions of voters of a voice. It creates 'safe seats' where MPs can safely ignore huge sections of their constituency. And it distorts our democracy. We’re fighting for proportional representation - where every vote counts.

Don't worry. Doubt the Moggs Sunaks and Johnsons are affected. They're alright so you should all be reassured.

If the UK were to bring in such scans & checks at the border, The Mail would be delighted…
…but it’s actually the EU “taking back control” of borders, security, criminal tracking and visa overstays.
Maybe we should rejoin the EU - for greater freedom *and* law enforcement.

"We have done a simulation of leaving the EU. The first thing that comes out is an 8% drop in the cost of living on day one... That is really worth having."
Professor Patrick Minford, Foreign Affairs Committee, November 3rd 2015
Did anyone get their 8% drop? #RejoinEU

526 libdem voters handed the tories Uxbridge. Had they lent their votes to Labour the tories would be gone. An uncomfortable reminder of why tactical voting will be needed to oust tories in some seats come the GE.

🚨 The UK has just taken a wrecking ball to the refugee protection system we helped to forge after the Holocaust.
The UN human rights & refugee chiefs have just issued an unusual joint statement - urging the UK to come to its senses.

The fight for Proportional Representation is simply the fight for representation.
Different groups have fought for and won their vote.
But some votes are still worth more than others.
Each time we won, it wasn’t the end.
We won battles, but not the war.
We’re still fighting.

it's quite funny that a certain channel deems going on strike for fair pay not a "normal people issue" but banking with Coutts very much is

Can I write to you and request you pay for the criminal and financial damage caused by Brexit, then?
Rt Hon Sir Grant Shapps@grantshapps
I’ve written to @Keir_Starmer to request he pays for the criminal damage the Just Stop Oil attacks on the Energy Security Department caused this morning As the political wing of Just Stop Oil, it is the Labour Party not the taxpayer that should be paying the bill

A bank account with Coutts is a “basic service”….
Rishi Sunak@RishiSunak
This is wrong. No one should be barred from using basic services for their political views. Free speech is the cornerstone of our democracy.

We may not gain anything from the CPTPP deal, but Malaysia will gain tariff free exports of palm oil to the UK. So at least we're doing our bit to destroy the rainforests.
English

"The main obvious beneficiary is Malaysia, which stands to gain tariff-free palm oil exports into the U.K"
This is UK's trajectory away from EU membership. One of lowering its market standards, no longer setting them. It was always going to be so.
