Liberal Democrats want to turbocharge our economy by forming a Customs Union with the EU, tearing down the trade barriers and red tape holding us back.

Lucky for Starmer most people have forgotten his 10 pledges he made when running for Labour leader, given he's abandoned so many, including: free movement, higher income tax for top 5%, higher corporation tax, abolish UC, common ownership of rail/mail/energy and water, no more NHS outsourcing, etc.

Latest OBR assessment: Brexit caused a 4% hit to GDP. That's an astounding amount, the equivalent of more than £100,000,000,000 lost to Brexit. obr.uk/forecasts-in...

I really dislike the people who were once strong supporters of Remain, but who now try to convince themselves and others that Brexit's OK - indeed inevitable - because the alternative is to admit that Labour are screwing up badly. It's the tribalism that gets to me.

Thank you, Mr. Reich.

Another deeper level of rotten scumbaggery from Trump. At some point Starmer is going to have to stop triangulating and call him out for the monster he is. (Yes, Starmer has expressed very strong support for Ukraine. But he has also been at great pains not to criticise Trump - unlike EU leaders.)

I’ll say it again. What makes this platform different is that it’s moderated. And, The Terms of Service are enforced. Bluesky is not like Twitter The world needs a platform where people who disagree can have a real discussion.

Marc Abrams@marca56.bsky.social · last yr.

The problem is you assume they want to "engage and have reals discussions on real issues." They don't. When confronted with facts, data, science, actual laws, and the like, they resort to spewing lies, disinformation and hate.
