Watch as 🐘benchu@econtwitter.net on Newsnight compares additional economic activity generated by post-Brexit trade deals (left) with what has been lost by leaving EU single market (right)
Brexit is a key cause of our our economic crisis

Remember when Leavers mobilised those fearful of migration to win a narrow referendum vote?
By cynically promising them a reduction in inward migration that they knew would never happen

RT @andrew_lilico: Remember when Remainers told us that Brexit meant a mass exodus from the UK & that no foreigners would want to come to live here any more? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/11/24/net-migration-uk-hits-record-high-surpassing-levels-seen-brexit/
I’m surprised by how tearful I am looking at pics of #ucuRISING picket lines
It’s the constant humiliation and exploitation, guilt and shame about the way the system treats students, the fear for my younger colleagues
The tragedy of my dream job being turned into a nightmare

What a picket line!

I told my students about the strike expecting judgement or criticism
The only response was from a Nigerian student asking why we didn’t just walk out for two months like lecturers did there!

A new workload model means I’m teaching three times more than last year
I’m worse off in real terms than I was a decade ago
And they’ve taken a large chunk out of my pension without negotiation
Are you at all surprised I’m on strike… https://mastodonapp.uk/@Molly/109397434304011334

@HouseRowena @TheGreenParty And why shouldn’t every voter have a choice in the main democratic chamber?
I have *never* elected an MP of my choice in spite of being nearly 60 and having lived in several different constituencies

👉🏼 This morning Politico points to Biden’s $369bn subsidy plan for green industries in the US
🏭 Yes, it’s a threat to European industry
🌎 But only if we don’t similarly invest in green transition

Responses to this tweet make it clear why Starmer opposes PR
So many people feel forced to vote Labour because of FPTP when they really prefer @TheGreenParty
How many voters would Labour have left if UK elections were a fair and open contest?

Rishi Sunak rules out Swiss-style trade deal with EU
I’m so tired of our national policy being driven by Brexit puritanism rather than economic rationalism
Not to mention that a Swiss dial deal *would never be on offer*

I remember the excitement when I first saw Gareth Bale play
And then my sadness that his talent would never be seen on the world stage
How this golden generation of Welsh footballers has proved me wrong!
