Here we go with the "they're all coming here" floodgates thing 👇 1 Poland today has a 3.5% growth rate, so not likely they'll "all be coming here" again. In fact maybe quite a few British people might want to "go there" to a booming economy like Brits did to Germany in the 80s 2 A lot of Poles "all came here" in 2005 because the UK and 🇮🇪 were the only countries which decided 𝐧𝐨𝐭 to apply a 7yr brake on FoM (negotiated by the EU) because Blair wanted cheap labour. It could have, but didn't 3 A whole lot more people "came here" after Reform's beloved Brexit, which quadrupled immigration 4 Over the years millions of us have, also "gone there" - free movement works both ways. How many Spaniards and French people have retired in sunny Clacton compared to the millions of UK pensioners who over decades have done so in the EU, incidentally clogging up their health services and hospitals and not the NHS ?

How many more do you want in the country? We're full !

I want to do a simple survey... Do you think Brexit has been a success? I'll publish the result on Friday.

Andy Burnham, "We could stay as we are, that's definitely an option if people think this is the right place to stay" "We could look at what George Osborne has said about a Customs Union" "We can look at what the Liberal Democrats have said about the Single Market" "Or we could all the way" "There are clearly options that need to be considered. We have to look at what is doable and look at the pros and cons of each" "It's not good enough to leave that question hanging" "Let's be clear where we want Britain to go in the next decade" "The country cannot have another decade, like the one we just had: too much drift, too much division" "Brexit has caused more harm than good" "Around 60% of the British public agree with that statement" "The question is, what do we do about that" My view: Well butter my crumpet and call me a startled pigeon: a British Prime Minister has finally said the obvious. Brexit has done more harm than good. It was obvious when Keir Starmer became Prime Minister too. But he was too busy talking about an “island of strangers”, defending the arrest of non-violent protesters holding placards, and trying to make Brexit work to seriously confront the future of the country. Andy Burnham is at least setting out the real choices: stay as we are, a Customs Union, the Single Market, or go all the way and rejoin the EU. That is what serious politics looks like: admit the last decade has been drift and division, weigh the evidence, and decide where Britain needs to be in the next decade. Because leaving the question “hanging” is not a strategy. “Make Brexit work” was never a strategy either. And my vote is clear: rejoin the EU. With our neighbouring countries, we are stronger. We can trade more freely, protect workers and consumers, tackle the climate crisis, strengthen security, and meet the shared challenges facing our continent and our planet. Cooperation does not make Britain weaker. It gives us more influence, more opportunity, and a better chance of building a future that works. Rejoin the EU.

"that's not crofts. Unless I am unaware of public bodies that own land that is used for crofting" [Climate Action Committee 17 Sep 2026 09:38] Scottish Ministers own 95,000 hectares of crofting land containing over 1500 crofts (almost 10% of all crofts).

May: let's make Brexit work Johnson: let's make Brexit work Truss: let's make Brexit work Sunak: let's make Brexit work Starmer: let's make Brexit work Burnham: let's make Brexit work Definition of insanity: "doing the same thing while expecting a different result"

I’m loathe to ask for one tangible benefit of the EU, but can anyone point to one positive impact they’ve made on anything in last ten years?

Prices in the UK just don't feel real anymore. £120 for a return train to London. £600 for a weekend in England, when you could go abroad for less. Rent jumping from £700 to £1300 for the same place. A full tank of fuel now over £100. Insurance rising every year even with no claims. And £100 somehow gone on just a couple of bags of shopping. How did we get here?
