Warm, easy and built for regular wear. The half-zip jumper that goes under a coat in winter and on its own the rest of the year.

How ridiculous
There's plenty more oil and gas in the North Sea
Preferring imports that have a higher carbon footprint to using our own hydrocarbons is idiotic
"Climate credibility" is not created by causing extra pollution
Peter retweeted
Time and time again, in every poll conducted on the matter, the British public show that a majority believe in sovereignty - and decisions that effect our nation being made *in* our nation.
Do you want decisions made in Brussels? No. No you don't. You want them made here.

The reset is in fact an attempt to rejoin without a vote.

The Growth Commission has estimated that the proposed terms of the EU Reset will have a net cost of £73 BILLION to the UK economy in the long term.
Why would *anyone* sign up to this?
💥OUR TAKE ON THE DRAFT UK-EU RESET💥
👎 Govt's growth claims ‘based on flawed assumptions & bogus calculations’
👎 We estimate a net long-run loss of £73bn to the UK economy
👎‘Digital partnership’ & imposition of AI Act on NI a further drag on growth

The draft EU Reset terms are now starting to leak out, of what Andy Burden and Labour have signed us up to.
It seems that, for the pleasure of the EU selling us their electricity for massive profit, the UK is going to give the EU billions a year towards their budget.
Treachery.

EU Reset Costs:
🐟 - £1000M a year for fishing rights
🧑🎓 - £450M a year for EU students
🏫 - £800M a year for Erasmus
🧑⚖️ - £240M a year for EU Criminals
🍅 - £300M a year for EU checks on non-EU imports
🛂 - 80,000 youth mobility visas a year
Why would *anyone* want this??
Peter retweeted
So let me get this straight.
The EU has *demanded* that the UK keep hold of EU citizens who commit serious crimes, instead of deporting them...
...and Andy Burden, knowing that we have a prison capacity issue, has AGREED TO IT????
Get him gone. Now.

Presumably that is why she still lives in UK as she did say that if UK voted to Leave the EU she would leave the country. But her view now mirrors many people who voted Remain

WOW - outspoken pro-EU activist Yasmin Alibhai-Brown on Jeremy Vine this morning:
"I have lost that kind of passion I had to be in the EU, I have to confess. The EU we left is not the EU of today"

London could lose one of its main bridges within the next three years.
Yet the fund that's supposed to maintain London's bridges has spent millions of pounds supporting climate change charities and groups with alleged links to Hamas.
We cannot go on like this.

What an extraordinary statement. Apparently, according to Labour, employers aren't working people. Tell that to the small business owners working 60-hour weeks, risking their savings, paying their staff and keeping their businesses afloat. Labour can play with definitions and indulge in endless whataboutery, but it cannot escape the consequences of its decisions. Taxing employers affects jobs, wages and the very people Labour claims to protect.
'I don't think employers are working people.'
@CamillaTominey grills Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Emma Reynolds MP, over whether Labour has breached its manifesto pledge in the Budget.

I’ve been Self employed or run a small limited company all my life, at one time employing 2 people full time & 2 part time. The longest I took off when I had my 3 children was a week. Becuase if I didn’t work I didn’t earn. Labour have absolutely no idea what private sector work is! It’s so insulting

Labour warns the people to 'be ready' for an emergency when the government itself is not. It has no credibility on the matter. youtu.be/QjMry1I8Lf0?is=ZMdn… via @YouTube

You can slave away every hour God sends to start or grow your own business.
This Labour Cabinet Minister still won't consider you a "working person".
This sums up their entire approach to the world. Moronic and insulting.

The readership of The Telegraph seems to disagree strongly with the new German pro-EU owners of The Telegraph.
Over 118,000 votes, 86% No to rejoining the EU.
Peter retweeted
They literally have nothing else in the tank apart from nostalgia for those glory days when Brussels wrote the laws & UK politicians implemented them. Taking responsibility for our country's destiny? Nah, far too difficult. Democracy be damned.
NEW
Rachel Reeves tonight declares Britain should return to the European Union
The former chancellor says Brexit made the UK “poorer, weaker and less secure”
She will make her case in a lecture at the Harvard Kennedy School on Monday
Reeves helped draft the Labour 2024 manifesto which said no EU return
She’s one of the most prominent Lab figures to back rejoin since Burnham became PM
The tectonic plates within Labour are shifting. Will more follow her?
Reeves writes in The Sunday Times:
“I am proud of the progress we have already made in strengthening our relationship with the European Union. Brexit has made us poorer, weaker and less secure.
“There is a debate to be had about our future relationship with Europe, and I welcome Andy Burnham’s leadership in facing up to this. No one in the Treasury ever doubted where my instincts were.
“I do believe Britain’s future lies in the European Union.
“However, it is incumbent on supporters of our re-entry to make the argument, demonstrate tangible benefits and to get the next steps right — especially ahead of the UK-EU summit later this month, where at a minimum we should be looking for confirmation of the ambitious youth mobility scheme negotiated earlier this year, and — I hope — progress towards entry into the SAFE defence partnership.”
