I, born in ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ,wanted ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง to work. Which is true?

๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ is respected in the ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡งParliament
๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ has a veto over ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง policies
๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ is an equal member of the ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง union
๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ belongs to the EU like it wants to be
๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ is free from authoritarian rule of a large neighbour

Don't get me wrong. I'm for unions.

But they *have* to be by consent.

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง left ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ rightly, because enough dumb citizens were duped by liars into thinking their lives would be improved. ๐Ÿ˜‚. We all know that's horse-shit now.

But consent for #rejoin must be built afresh.
Maybe, one day, Scotland will want to be part of the ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง UK as much as it wants to be part of the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บEU.

Boris Johnson is kicking that day into the long grass.

So what now, Scotland?

You're the size of ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐDenmark but with more natural resources.

You're twice the size of ROI๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช.
#Ukraine is fighting for its existence.

You, Scotland, are just taking it up the arse day in, day out, without so much as a whimper.

Why don't you take control?

FFS.

Today, a career liar sacked multiple times for lying, a man too important to pay parking fines or follow his own lockdown laws, a man happy to help another assault a journalist, a man who weaponised a nativist far right project to pitch him into power, unleashing historic harm...
...will tell a raft of lies to avoid being pitched out of his job by a fearful, spineless group of MPs happy to watch his destruction of every organisation capable of holding power to account - not least Parliament itself - so they can keep their jobs...
...and in doing so he has effectively destroyed the power of the two remaining bodies that could hold him to account. His own party and Parliament.

He can say what he wants. Do what he wants. Without censure. And the country continues to transform into a kleptocratic autocracy.

I just scrolled through a month's worth of @UKLabour tweets. 100s.

Not one word on #Brexit or #BrexitFoodShortages.

Not one.

The largest progressive party in Europe. Silent, as the #VoteLeave regime destroys the country.

The biggest failure of opposition in my lifetime.๐Ÿคฆ
@Keir_Starmer: You demand we embrace the far right coup which has enabled obscene corruption, destroyed our influence, decimated exports, eroded standards and accelerated the gap between rich and poor.

Come to my door and tell me why. Follow me and DM me for the address.
Think I'm making it up? Try it for yourself. You'll wear your thumb out looking for a mention of Brexit in @UKLabour's official twitter feed.

@PickardJE The issue isn't that Turkey had a stalled EU application.

No. The issue here was a simple racist, xenophobic message:

74 million turks (and 'terrorists'!) -> ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

Using Racism & xenophobia to instil fear every step of the way.
@PickardJE Look! If Turkey joins, Syria and Iraq will be 'flooding in' too! More brown muslims! #VoteLeave and save the nation from them.
@PickardJE There was a danger people may not have spotted the inference, so they made it clearer:

Look at those red countries. Syria!! IRAQ!!!!! COMING HERE!!!!!!!

And it's going to be "a deal"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Evil EU, plotting to flood blighty with terrorists)

If I were @UKLabour leader, I would work with the @TheGreenParty and @libdems on an official electoral pact to remove all chance of tory victory. As PM, I'd modernise democracy, strengthen its checks and balances, implement fair tax, end tax dodging and send the corrupt to jail.
I'd make the state more efficient by introducing universal basic income. I'd make public provision more efficient by moving it back in-house. I'd transform the business landscape and personal freedoms by joining the Single Market and Customs Union.
I'd make it illegal for foreign nationals to own UK TV stations and print media. I'd make media editors personally liable for correcting falsehoods, with prominence matching the original presentation. I'd make it an offence for a politician to knowingly mislead parliament.

So: BAD:

1. Some in the EU, angry at life-saving contracts not honoured, consider idiot move"

2. Others in EU point out idiot move. EU doesn't do idiot thing".
and GOOD:

1. Some in the UK dupe the people with lies into idiot move
2. Lies exposed. People not allowed to vote on idiot move
3. Idiot move implemented. Business, economy, freedoms shattered
4. We must celebrate our idiot move because the EU cancelled an idiot move!

#BrexitReality could never win a popular vote unless people have been whipped up into a nationalist frenzy.

They will do their most to fan the flames of every disagreement. Separation. Schism. Anger.

I won't have anything to do with it. And neither should you.
