Well, it makes as much sense as Brexit, so why not.

(don't you dare say 'common sense')

#UKPol #RejoinEU

I guess the only way to look at this is to judge the 50M by the ONE TRILLION POUNDS already wasted - burnt to ashes - thrown down the toilet by Brexit.

Still, a decade later, and it's costing more than ever to maintain Brexit.

Common sense can't be that hard, surely?

It's becoming more Trumpian here by the day, and No 10 never calls out that freak in the White House, quisling submission and weakness.

Australia - political cycle

A change of government rarely brings fundamental change in power and political agendas. The main change is that supporters become critics and vice versa. The chants remain the same but with different voices.

Saw this posted elsewhere. The graph shows the number of arrests under terrorism legislation since 2002. Note the huge spike (a 1,500% increase) which is basically all down to peaceful #PalestineAction protestors.

What a grotesque waste of police time and public resources.

The line was blurry.
Because in 2016, no one knew *for certain* what Brexit would do.
Now, a decade later, we certainly do know.

So the line is no longer in the same place.
For those who are still peddling "Brexit is good", the line has moved:

Into harming us all territory.

This is what comes of handing over your nation’s defence communications to a private contractor running his own personal megalomaniacal agenda.
