#Starmer is right to stress his progress on US & Indian trade deals The US deal however is a tiny pinprick when compared with the major prize of an EU deal. The BofE Governor stresses the importance of EU UK trade, & the damage that #Brexit has done. A majority want to #RejoinEU. Every day outside the EU damages the UK, reducing economic growth by over 4%. We can't let this disaster carry on. shorturl.at/U5kpv

The utter folly of #Brexit shown again. UK is prepared to pay to access EU defence contracts. We were a leading member of the EU, yet xenophobes lied & tricked the British people to the insane position we are in. The EU is a light in a dark world, UK must draw closer to our European family. #RejoinEU #ClimateCrisis bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp3q50

BBC NewsUK prepared to pay to access EU defence programmesDefence secretary John Healey has told the BBC the UK will pay its "fair share" but wants a say in decisions.

Yes we are! ("concerned"). Back room "deal" giving away, what, exactly UK Labour?

Remember, whatever it is you are conceding is not yours to give. It is ours.

That includes our NHS, and our confidential personal data.

If you've stitched us up by some craven Blue Labour rollover, there will further electoral hell to pay.

We need to loosen dependence on US trade, because the US has turned rogue & hostile. Take your cue from EU & Canada. Show some backbone.

No hint of irony from the putrid Daily Telegraph, after it did its level best to undermine & destroy the institution that, above all others, guarantees the peace between European Nations, the European Union, then shamefully set about undermining the independence of the UK judiciary. We won't accept history lessons from your oligarch owners Torygraph. You are circling the toilet, where you belong, alongside the moribund political party you stood for.

Germans call today's anniversary Kriegsende. "From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across the Continent." Winston Churchill. For citizens of East Europe, another war began, lasting 40 yrs. Until the european citizens of the USSR refused to live any longer under permanent wartime conditions & threw off the baleful control of Moscow in 1991. Let's celebrate that instead of indulging in Moscow-style jingoism. And the institution of the EU.
