The best way to 'tackle small boats' is to rejoin the Single Market. FOM only exists for SM member state citizens so anyone without a passport from those countries can't flow freely, they are detained at our border. Meanwhile the Dublin Convention gives us the ability to 1/4

& so it came to pass that indeed the EU, unlike UK, did not sell out their farmers for an Aussie Trade Deal @SaveBritishFood @Nick1webb If UK had stayed a member it would have got the better deal AND retained its far easier access to the EU/EFTA nations with better food security

drinking a beer in sun trying to avoid twitter but thinking out loud I'm (yet again) amazed at what's happening back in UK. Imagine UK still EU member & EU "negotiating" a trade deal with Oz to crucify/kill UK farming. There'd be huge outcry by same people lauding Johnson & Truss

👇 plus we haven't come close to implementing the TCA fully 🇬🇧 side of our now hard border with 🇪🇺 as we don't have the staff or infrastructure. It would also cause even more damage for prices and supply chains. We must prioritise communicating the truth/our options effectively.

0.7% growth. 4% inflation. Bottom of the G20. And Politicians Are Still Not Being Honest About Brexit! BREAKING: The OECD just gave Britain the biggest growth downgrade of any #G20 economy UK growth slashed to 0.7% - #inflation revised UP to 4% - nearly the highest in the G7 This is not just a bad forecast - it's structural failure. 🧵 1/6

@Nick1webb @itsstil65916887 @vivamjm I am pretty sure it is. If he's muted me it's probably because he can't handle an actual discussion. If GB is uniquely weaker what did we roll over 90% of the ftas we had under the e.u?

@Nick1webb @itsstil65916887 @vivamjm What are the key differences in the deals for the UK and e.u? You have this far only pointed out 1 quota. Of which the UK home industry is not affected but the e.u

@Bobatron87 @itsstil65916887 @vivamjm I'm pretty sure that's not why he's not replying. I'm not sure what your point is TBH. Research the deals 🇬🇧 Vs 🇪🇺 have struck with 🇦🇺. GB is unquestionably weaker in terms of leverage in negotiations and the deals we've struck don't compare to being in SM/CU.

@bambibristol Almost like someone who will be paid a fortune to implement a system of private healthcare like his US backers are aiming for would encourage more cancer. More sick people paying to be treated is a nightmare situation for most but a libertarian dream.

This epitomises the backwards trajectory offered up by Reform UK. Even hardened smokers will think this is a shit idea.

@Nigel_Farage Why would people bring their ID documents all the way to France to then dispose of them in the English Channel if doing so was always their intention? If elected you will run a mile then second the reality of the situation kicks in blaming others. As with Brexit. Fool us once...

Britain is so broken that 1,000 undocumented men have invaded in the last week and we’ve barely heard about it.

@Bobatron87 @vivamjm The point is that 🇪🇺 have secured a far superior trade deal with 🇦🇺 than 🇬🇧 could. 27 countries together have far better leverage in negotiations than 1 relatively small country on its own.

@vivamjm @Nick1webb Heres the 10 years of beef imports Australia uses less than 30% of it's quota. Any gain in beef imports for aus look to come at the detriment of e.u exporters to UK

So it appears 🇪🇺 has secured a trade deal with 🇦🇺 that is far better for its own importers and exporters than the deal 🇬🇧 did. It's simple- the EU has far greater leverage in negotiations than GB as it is a far larger and more desirable market to have access to buy and sell to.
Michael M. 🇨🇭🇳🇴🇮🇸🇱🇮🇬🇧/🇨🇾@vivamjm

I was of course (again) correct ..😬 Compare & contrast comments from Australian farmers & commentators compared to (laughing all over their faces on Oz TV news) what they got from the UK and its Australian trade deal @Nick1webb abc.net.au/news/2026-03-2…

Just had a conversation with a man who owns an engineering company. We used to rent industrial units to him in the UK, as of today he has now closed his entire British operation and completed the move to the Netherlands. The reason ? Brexit. 217 UK jobs gone

@RobertJenrick And I suspect dark money is running you, @reformparty_uk and @Nigel_Farage but you all get incredibly touchy when this is suggested. The intentions of those who fund you are far more dangerous than anything else this country faces IMO.

The story about Hezbollah facing backlash from the Shia community in Lebanon emerges every few years in various formats, and it always proves to be exaggerated. Yes, there is frustration. Yes, people are hurting badly, and they are sick of war. And indeed many people are questioning the wisdom of attacking Israel. But there is no major turn in Shia public opinion. Critical voices have always existed, and they are now more vocal. However, the lack of a political alternative within Lebanon, as some elements in the political establishment adopt blatantly pro-Israel language, makes a popular Shia breakup with Hezbollah highly unlikely. On some level, the opposite of a backlash may be happening, where Hezbollah skeptics revert to in-group solidarity because the community is facing an existential threat. Also several factors play into the hand of Hezbollah in remaining overwhelmingly popular with its Shia base: 1) The possibility that Israel was going to attack anyway and Hezbollah deprived it of the element of surprise. 2) The failure of diplomacy and Hezbollah's restraint in stemming 15 months of deadly Israeli attacks and preventing displaced people from returning to border towns. 3) The sense is seeing sacrifices as virtue, which has been embedded in the community on a social, religious and political level. 4) The perception that Hezbollah may have recovered militarily to inflict losses on Israel. 5) The sunken cost theory. The community has sacrificed so much of its wealth, children and political capital already, so more sacrifices may ensure that the previous ones are not lost.

@WestminsterWAG I got the bus/train day and night in London in the 90's. People would smoke weed/take drugs and fight, sometimes all on the same bus/train. There were muggings, stabbings and all sorts of trouble. I'm sorry you were harassed by a man, but blame men for that. What's your point?

I took the 94 bus home from dinner with an old school friend tonight. I was harassed by a man, while another sat next to me apparently in hysterics at what was going on. It was fine: I’m far too long in the tooth to care about a couple of dickheads. But had I been younger, I would have been quite scared. It’s not right that women should have to put up with this bullshit. Not right at all. London is not safe. @SadiqKhan

‘Judeo-Christian values’ is such a tell. Who, in Britain, has ever casually dropped ‘Judeo-Christian values’ into any conversation *ever*? This is Farage channeling Bannon. It’s MAGA. Dressing it up as English nationalism is pure pantomime. They’ll have Mother Goose next
Nigel Farage MP@Nigel_Farage

What we witnessed in London at the historic Trafalgar Square, in a country built on Judeo-Christian values, was a group of people attempting dominance over our capital city and our culture. We are not going to surrender everything that was built over centuries and defended at great cost in two world wars for us to be a free, independent nation. The British people will not put up with this any longer — simple as.

🚨 For a decade I’ve warned that Brexit would destroy our ability to feed ourselves. Because food is low margin in a system that: 👉 squeezes producers 👉 rewards imports 👉 prioritises profit over resilience Brexit accelerated Britain to end food production and fall into dependence on others for food. But who will feed us and what will we have to do and pay to get fed?
Liz Webster tweet media
Liz Webster@LizWebsterSBF

🚨 🆘 🔔 This should set alarm bells ringing. The boss of @Unilever is talking about spinning off its food business to focus on higher-margin products like beauty and personal care. 🤔 Think about that. Food: the one thing every single person depends on is becoming the least attractive part of the system. 🧵

@stellacreasy this is v encouraging to hear, but Switzerland is not part of the EEA so not part of the SM meaning border issues that would be problematic for GB. Don't forget we still have not fully implemented TCA UK side as no staff or infrastructure to do so. I would love 1/2
stellacreasy@stellacreasy

Probably the most important video I have made in a while. It explains why if you are pro European and British now is the time to speak up for a Swiss style deal for our future with the EU as something both sides could agree. Please watch to the end to understand why.
