"It would throw up a huge dust cloud of uncertainty."
Former chief economist at the Bank of England Andy Haldane says reopening a debate about Brexit ‘would be a damaging thing'.

Almost everything Burnham says in this piece is a lie.
- We didn't get a "harder" Brexit than what was mentioned in the Referendum. We left with the most comprehensive trade agreement the EU has ever signed.
- The small boats crisis didn't emerge because of losing "returns agreements". While we were in the EU we were a net-, recipient of illegal immigrants from these agreements, the small boats crisis has emerged because of a global surge in illegal immigration and pull-factors like our human rights laws.
- Immigration within the EU was not "revolving door". It has been permanent, and significantly more than estimated at the time. Over 6 million people have come here on the EU Settlement scheme, double estimated.
The Prime Minister is dishonest and cynical, planning to hand border control to the EU, and likely pay them British taxpayers money while he's at it. – at Merton, London
Exclusive from @benclatworthy
Britain is holding talks with the EU about a potential return to free movement and other options for closer alignment
The Times has been told that the UK is discussing a series of options about the future relationship which are due to be unveiled within weeks
Andy Burnham plans to set out his vision for closer ties with the bloc, including the potential of rejoining the union, and have a “conversation with the British public about our long-term future”
The options that will be presented are being discussed with officials in Brussels to ensure both sides would ultimately be able to agree
One source said all such routes would be “discussed using diplomatic channels” before any “big bang” launch of the options on the table

Most fundamentally, if you arrive in a Downing Street promising to pass power down from the centre to the people, but instead pass it up to Brussels, you aren’t Mr Localism any more.
Rejoining the EU might help Labour squeeze the Lib Dems - but it would also mean gutting Andy Burnham’s own policy agenda, from devolution to reindustrialisation to trade to regulation. My latest for @theipaper inews.co.uk/opinion/burnham-…

Long time followers will remember that, back in May 2025 the organizer of the Rejoin March, Peter Corr, said he was going to debunk my book of 75 Brexit Benefits and then release his own book of the debunks.
Well he didn't manage to debunk any, and has now deleted the website 🤣
You "debunked" it so well that you deleted the website 🤣
Never change Pete. You'd be dangerous if you had more than 3 brain cells 🤣

A Christian mother in northeastern Nigeria was sentenced to 14 years in prison after an adult Muslim woman she spoke with freely chose to leave Islam and become a Christian.
Liyatu Samuel Dawa forced, kidnapped, and deceived no one. The convert testified that the decision was hers alone.
The Islamic High Court convicted her under a child-custody statute unrelated to an adult choosing her faith, imposing the maximum sentence with no fine option.
Her husband, Evangelist Amos Suleman, was detained for months and now hides after death threats from Muslim terrorists.
Mainstream media and the international community show little interest—please share this and keep them in your prayers.
Do not let the Islamic persecution of Christians across Asia and Africa be ignored as the brutal persecution reaches genocidal levels.

For anyone not keeping up - the "Summit" in November isn't actually where negotiations take place. The negotiations are happening now, in the background, and have been for many many months.
The "Summit" is where the leaders shake hands and have a press conference.
So more LIES

The Foreign Secretary declined to:
• Expel Iranian Security Service members,
• Ban Russian tourist visas being used by Russian terrorists, and
• Shut down Confucius Institutes?
Why will the Government not act on these threats to our country?

Burnham has spent the day going on about how the only way for the UK economy to survive is to get close to the collapsing EU
The he announces a policy of cutting import tariffs, something he can only do because of Brexit
It’s not so much that the left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing but the left hand not knowing of the existence of the right hand & denying that it even exists in the first place
🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham has announced five "everyday fixes" ahead of the Budget
1. Carer's Allowance will be changed so carers no longer lose their entire benefit when they earn over the limit - instead, their support will reduce by £1 for every extra £1 they earn
2. Import tariffs will be removed on more than 100 products, including baked beans, chocolate and gherkins, to save households up to £21 on their food shop a year
3. Tax-free mileage rates for workers using their own cars will be made permanent at 55p per mile for the first 10,000 miles, with the rate for additional miles rising from 25p to 35p
4. Parental pay will be extended to over 150,000 more parents a year, including self-employed fathers and partners
5. Hundreds more Post Office drop boxes will be rolled out to save people queueing at branches

Antisemitism is a scourge that we must stamp out.
Thank you to @antisemitism for meeting with me today to discuss their work and how we can better challenge this hatred.
I will always stand with the Jewish community against antisemitism.

Andy Burnham betrayed the British people with the EU Free Movement, & his cowardly ministers won't even talk about it!
Labour lies about not rejoining the EU, like all the other lies?
We don't want a referendum; call a GE if you think people back you!

Prayers rose from Ottawa, Canada, for the nine Christian martyrs who lost their lives in the church attack in Jordan. 🇯🇴🇨🇦
A memorial prayer service was held at St. Elias Antiochian Orthodox Cathedral in honour of the martyrs of St. George’s Greek Orthodox Church in Hamoud, Karak. The service was attended by Jordan’s ambassador to Canada and a representative of the Jordanian Embassy.
On Friday, October 23, gunmen opened fire on mourners gathered for a funeral at St. George’s Church. Nine Christians lost their lives, and dozens of others were injured.
Please keep the martyrs, their grieving families, and all those injured in your prayers. May God grant comfort to their loved ones and healing to all those affected.
Memory Eternal! ☦️🕯️

Another car crash interview from Labour.
“That’s £190,000 per person…we could buy them all a house.”
This Labour govt are out of their depth. This is scarily incompetent. It’s no wonder Labour are bankrupting us and taxes are going up to pay for it.

More worrying news on inflation and for interest rates... ☹️
BRC survey finds shop price inflation jumped to 2.1% year on year in October, from 1.4% in September.
"The dam is starting to break on the huge wave of costs retailers have absorbed over the last two years."

🔴 BREAKING - Jordanian Airforce has hit Syria
In retaliation for the Islamist terror attack that killed 9 Christians at a Church funeral.
Statement from Jordan:
The Royal Jordanian Air Force (RJAF) executed “Operation Jordanian Deterrence - Hmoud”, targeting hideouts of terrorist organizations in southern Syria, in coordination with the Syrian government.
The operation was conducted in retaliation for the martyrs of last Friday’s Hmoud church attack in Karak.
The terrorists behind the Hmoud attack have ties to the targeted terrorist organizations.
RJAF fighter jets destroyed a number of terrorist locations, killing and wounding several terrorists and destroying their equipment.
The Jordan Armed Forces stressed that the Arab Army will stand firm against those who seek to undermine Jordanians’ security, reiterating that it will continue working to counter terrorism at its roots, while safeguarding Jordan and ensuring the safety of its people.
May the souls of the Karak martyrs rest in peace, and may Jordan continue to be resilient and secure.”

Happy 102nd Birthday to the incredible Dorothea Barron!🇬🇧❤️
A true WW2inspiration, Dorothea joined the WRNS at just 18, even putting cardboard in her shoes to meet the height requirement!
“I put my hair up and stood up very tall, as tall as I could.”
She went on to teach semaphore signalling to troops ahead of D-Day.
What a remarkable lady! Thank you for your service, Dorothea.
