🚨🚨'The week has rather summed up the administration of #Brexit over the past eight years: a mixture of performative political posturing & inept Whitehall administration masked by deliberate obfuscation to minimise public awareness of what is actually happening.' Peter Foster

Oh dear. 😁👏👏

This is how you report.

You do not shove cameras in peoples faces, you do not shout questions. You build trust with the people around asylum seekers, you report respectfully & sensitively to the risks, and you show empathy to peoples fear.

They’ve lost 3,500 asylum seekers.

But they did manage to find one - who was willing to go to Rwanda - and they agreed to pay him £3000 to be flown there, so they could fleetingly pretend their hideous little plan was underway.

Jeezus. The shabby desperation.

It’s unsurprising people living part-year in EU countries after Brexit feel aggrieved.

People trusted they would be protected by negotiators, but loss of residency after 6 months away meant those living in 2+ countries lost work rights & were soon left treated as holidaymakers.

For example did you know that student ID is 👎 but proof of age PASS card is 👍? Or that you can use a passport *even if expired*?

Politicians seemingly led people to believe they would be protected but British negotiators dropped the ball leaving millions in the lurch.

People who owned or rented homes in another EU country before Brexit moved back and forwards between their homes several times a year. Some worked in two countries too, while others cared for family members.

EU citizenship meant they had the right to reside, not only to visit.

Loss of FOM affects every single British citizen. For some, such as part year residents (multi country dwellers/workers) the loss was felt immediately. For others it’s less tangible perhaps but no less frustrating.

He is a British citizen in prison for exercising rights protected under int’l law. He should not be a footnote or sidebar in 🇬🇧🇨🇳 discussions.

David Cameron has called for his release. What is UK’s plan to now ensure this?

Wow those officials are bright as a button for working this one out.

Really good, detailed reporting on what Brexit means in practice for food imports from the EU.

Nicely summed up by: “'Now we’re back to the mid-70s,' said Christian Pedersen, head of operations for the route at Danish shipping firm DFDS, referring to the new Brexit checks.'

It's been a while since we had decent mainstream news coverage of the damage Brexit's doing.

Much more of this, please! It's only not an issue for most voters because of the deathly silence from both main parties.

MI5 warns foreign states targeting UK universities to ‘deliver their authoritarian military and commercial priorities’…presumably
It’s ok for universities to deliver authoritarian military priorities if they are British authoritarian military priorities?

It's really important to understand the government has completely broken the system *however liberal or conservative your views on immigration*.

Under the current policy, the home office is not processing anyone who arrived illegally since March 2023.

That means anyone who should be rejected is still in the system, as well as all those who would have a valid claim.

British are now about to feel full on #Brexit as the Brexit border tax begins.

Albertsen, MD Of Danish Crown predicted smaller exporters may “shy away” as Britain becomes more costly and bureaucratic to trade with, leaving consumers facing more expensive produce.

Many people appalled at our country using brutal force to drag people out and expel them to Rwanda.

Show them it’s not ‘the will of the people’, show them that we welcome refugees, we are better than our government.
