@archer_rs I personally don’t think that rejoin should happen for another 5 years. There are too many boomers still ready to do whatever it takes. Best to allow the shit to really hit the fan first.

For the first time since the disastrous Brexit support for rejoining the EU has risen to 75% in the UK. Among those under 25 years old it's nearly 100%. Will the Labour Party now embrace rejoin and lead the country back into Europe?

Funnily enough, no climate change in the UK where we are suffering one of the coolest and wettest Julys on record. What’s the explanation?
Ursula von der Leyen@vonderleyen

I called @KMitsotakis to express our full support for Greece, which is confronted with devastating forest fires and a heavy heat wave due to climate change. Greece is handling this difficult situation with professionalism, putting emphasis on safely evacuating thousands of tourists, and can always count on European solidarity. EU firefighters are already on the ground.

@afneil Haven’t you got anything more important to be reporting on. We don’t care about Farage and his bank account.

I’ve now been through the NatWest/Coutts dossier on Nigel Farage twice now. It is clear beyond doubt that, even though they could find no real “dirt” on him, they still wanted to “debank” him because they didn’t like his politics — and came up with the ruse of using an expiring mortgage to close his account this month (July). Farage curtailed this process by paying off the mortgage earlier than necessary, unaware of the consequences for his Coutts accounts. On Nov 17 2022 the bank put its plan in place: “Recommendation is to retain N[igel] F[arage] for now. However, it was noted that NF currently has a mortgage with Coutts, which is due to expire in July 2023 and which, on a commercial basis, we would not look to renew and so would suggest winding down the connection on that basis.” The Bank then says it had put great store on his Russia connections but admits it could find “nothing substantive” to pin on him. So the bank then details the fallback plan it has hatched: “Six months before the expiry of NF’s mortgage with Coutts, they would indicate to NF that we are not renewing the mortgage [allowing the Bank to exit] NF next year on commercial grounds when the mortgage rolls off.” The Banks then again admits the real reason: “[It] did not think continuing to bank NF was compatible with Coutts given his publicly-stated views that were at odds with our position as an inclusive organisation.” (Coutts is actually one of the least inclusive banks in the world, as Farage was founding out) Coutts claims “this was not a political decision but one centred around inclusivity and purpose”. Pause for laughter. “The Chair concluded as follows [the Committee was unanimous]: After the expiry of the mortgage with Coutts, NF would not be a criteria client and we should set a glide path to exiting NF when that mortgage expires.” So the mortgage was the pretext. His politics were the real reason.

The Daily Telegraph has discovered that Dame Alison Rose, woke boss of Nat West, Coutts’s parent bank, sat next to Simon Jack, the BBC’s business editor, at a charity dinner the night before Mr Jack wrote a story claiming wrongly that Nigel Farage had been de-banked for “commercial” reasons – a story now described as “concerning” by the banking watchdog.

This is shocking. There used to be many routes into study for those who didn’t make the cut first time - cheap FE evening classes, extra-mural university departments, low cost Open University modules. What is *wrong* with these people?

I'm an archaeologist, I have directed excavations at Stonehenge, & I care deeply about environment, heritage and present lives. I can say that this idea of archaeological catastrophe may sound right but it's really, really not. Stonehenge is safe & would gain from the tunnel
Andrew Higgs@Macheath1

No! This decision is so obviously CATASTROPHIC for the undiscovered archaeology around #Stonehenge. You'd have thought @NaturalEngland would know this. The fact that they're supporting this tunnel begs the question of who benefits? #FollowtheMoney ££££££££££££££££?
