I will never forgive anyone who makes kids like this wait a second too long for safe haven. It is time this country found its humanity. Stop waving flags, start waiving visas, and make us proud, not red with shame & rage.
Therefore, Putin wanted #Brexit. Putin’s coterie infiltrated every corner of Britain’s political, commercial & cultural life. Now Farage et al are ambivalent about #Ukraine️.
Join the bloody dots, it really isn’t hugely complicated.
Lebedev, Murdoch, and Farage. I want my country back. #BrexitReality
🧵 Go to Google maps. Find any Russian restaurant, shop, business premises. Leave a 5 ⭐️ review, so as not to affect their business or search ranking, as this isn’t their fault. Paste the message below in Russian. It tells them what Putin is doing, evading his media censorship.👇
Было хорошо! Однако, Путин испортил нам настроение, вторгшись в Украину. Восстаньте против своего диктатора, прекратите убивать невинных людей! Ваше правительство лжет вам. Восстаньте!
These foul, depraved people. When #Brexit finally happened, this is how they treated that magnificent European Parliament we saw standing with #Zelenskyy today. Their hero Reagan called the EP the greatest tribute to peace he’d ever witnessed.
Abhorrent.
It would be bloody good to be in the EU right now, so we could actually be at the table with the other 27 countries on our doorstep, as they discuss sanctions and operational issues. Instead we have to find out what they discussed afterwards.
A lot of people I respect disagree, but my view remains, no matter how pro EU I am, that it would be electoral suicide for Labour to campaign to rejoin, giving the flagging Tory base that has almost nothing left to rally around an excuse to rejuvenate their nationalist message.1/
People are 'tired of #Brexit' (spoiler: it has barely started) and reopening up/deepening this whole debate now has no mileage in it. Brexit cannot and will not work, and you have to time the politics correctly. We will have to rejoin incrementally, in all but name, over time 2/
Unfortunately a huge amount of lasting damage will have been done, but that is ultimately what will lead to people reassessing this total disaster. Then the path will be clear for more rational policy-making, under a different government. Rejoin isn't currently electable, sadly.
Please enjoy this recently resurfaced video starring the MP that the voters of Beaconsfield chose over Dominic Grieve, and stop asking why this country is done.
Johnson has of course just appointed her as a PPS.
I really hope Nadine Dorries doesn’t now feel she needs to trump her colleague in some form to keep the PM’s attention. 😬
Yes, of course former B movie actors can be MPs. It’s just that the alternative was Dominic Grieve, who is a serious and knowledgeable person, who cares about things like laws and good governance, that sort of thing. This is the MP who wants a pic of the Queen in every house. 🤦🏻♂️
