A new report shows that EU membership is the best way to grow the UK economy - and a majority of voters would now vote to rejoin the EU. We asked people why they want to rejoin. Here's what they said.
You notice that the criminal-in-charge who sues everyone for everything is drop dead quiet about this. Says a lot.
We have bikes and scooters with engines so we don't have to pedal and scoot, Copilot so we don't have to read and write, ChatGPT so we don't have to plan. In a few years, we can reflect on this when we're sat on our fat, brain-dead asses wondering what to do with the time saved
Actually Nigel no one cares Farage. Most people don’t want corrupt politicians. We don’t want politicians that can be bought by the rich. We had enough of that under the Tories. I think you’ll find that most people do care, very much so. #FarageBung #Farage #Reform #Corruption
Your regular reminder that not a single new reservoir has been built in England since privatisation. Water companies have increased our bills above the rate of inflation and made 10s of billions in profit.
Nearly every problem faced by the incoming UK Prime Minister will require a large sum of money to resolve it. Two immediate solutions that would generate money: 1 Rejoin EU 2 Wealth tax If they are not proposed then the UK will continue to decline.
I am sick of scumbags spouting lies to us like brexit will work, genocide & global warming aren’t happening, that immigrants aren’t needed, that ultra wealth can’t be taxed, that politicians need bribes, that water can’t be nationalised. I want honesty and we should demand it, if that’s ok?
Last week I asked Robert Jenrick about what people with EU settled status should do and he replied: “If you are in this country and you are not a British citizen, and you are somebody who will not be able to stay in the UK under a Reform government, then you should think of leaving the country.”
EU citizens in the UK are our friends and neighbours. They have built their lives here and contribute to our economy and society every day. Reform UK's plan to target them is appalling. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/jun/25/reform-uk-plan-target-eu-nationals-britain-brexit
Reform UK plan to target EU nationals based in Britain ‘absolutely outrageous’

I'm booked in for a stint as Prime Minister next Thursday, but I have a dental appointment. Is anyone able to swap shifts?
🇪🇺♥️ "Two-thirds of EU citizens would back Britain rejoining the bloc, while most UK voters say Brexit has been bad for the issues they care about and want closer ties, including levels of integration – such as free movement – long seen as toxic, a survey has found."
Two-thirds of EU citizens back UK rejoining bloc, survey finds
Poll also finds three quarters of people in Britain want closer ties, with majority accepting free movement

Brexit has been a disaster for all of us, well except Nigel Farage, we are all poorer, well except Nigel Farage... Notice a pattern? https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/22/opinion/brexit-britain-europe-power.html

Sky had a helicopter following Andy Burnhams train from Manchester. Meanwhile no-one has any idea where Nigel Farage has been hiding out for about 6 weeks.
This is the product of Farage’s (almost) life work, for which he claims he was paid £5m by a foreign based Crypto dealer - Brexit cost our economy an absolute fortune. £180 Billion. That’s almost the entire annual budget of our NHS. This is the man that would be PM…..! bbc.in/4ekYBRc
It is time for Britain to rejoin the EU. We cannot afford to waste anymore time indulging in economic self-sabotage.
A decade on from Brexit, the new PM has big calls to make on Europe
A decade on from Brexit, the EU is more cohesive than many expected, but faces growing pressure from within.

An early message for Andy Burnham : join our local union, the European Union 🇪🇺
Sorry but Keir Starmer is not the worst PM ever. Theresa May -worse David Cameron - worse Boris Johnson - worse Luz Truss - worse Rishi Sunak - worse. Now tell me different?
Unelected gobshite who bought his position complains about lack of democracy.
Is it time for a second referendum on EU membership?
Used to love Starbucks. Haven't darken their doors for more than two years. And the other bit. What was the £5 million for, 'Are Nige?
Farage has gone into hiding so as to avoid scrutiny and difficult questions about the £5m bung, the racism and misogyny of his Makerfield candidate, and the unhinged mayhem in every Reform-led council…. Yusuf has been deployed to use the scattergun approach of announcing mental policy ideas…. 🤪🤡😂🤦🏻♂️
More pearls of wisdom from the nation's favourite unelected gobshite.
In February, Trump purchased over $1 million in Dell stock. Just weeks ago, Trump told everyone to “go out and buy a Dell.” Its stock price is up over 60% since then. Now, Dell has been awarded a $9.7 BILLION Pentagon contract. See the problem here?
Nigel Farage has been desperately trying to distance himself from Donald Trump over the last few months. Don’t let him get away with it, share and share!
The abhorrent racism aside, Burnham is right that there is something quite desperate about Reform's recent activity. See also Zia 'white people are the biggest victims of racism' Yusuf's recent posts
Tory Laura will be pretending that Sturgeons husbands corruption is someone greater than Farage taking a £5 million 'gift' and not declaring it. Then lying about it. But then the majority of the bent media looked away at how Vote Leave was actually funded. Or attacked those who didn't.
"Hands up if you're in hiding because you dug yourself into a massive hole by lying about a £5 million gift then pretending Russia hacked your phone"
