There is much to think through when considering the future of UK-EU relations under a The Labour Party government led by Sir Keir Starmer. But it is essential to start by analysing how and why #Brexit happened. CER essay by John Peet Read here: buff.ly/3y1ZED7

Chaque jour on découvre une nouvelle vedette LFI, c’est proprement sidérant. Que seulement 79% des Français considèrent ce parti comme un « handicap » pour la gauche relève du miracle

We’ve seen how the Boris-Frost ‘no compromise’ Brexit deal has damaged this country. Time to free up labour transfer with the EU & reset the ideological stranglehold Farage has had on our economic wellbeing & opportunities for our young. Charles Grant is, as always, to be heeded.
