Most likely "They did Brexit wrong!". The Brexit that Farage would have delivered, given the chance, would have unicorns crapping out rainbows all over Britain making everything magically better.
Well, there's always someone who'll have access to your data, that's just how life works, so do you want a say on how that's used, how much is shared and with whom? Or do you want to hand it over to the US. To me that's an easy choice.
Maybe? Vetoing spends political capital.
But I agree that getting an EU army is not an easy task.
Did I? I might have tbf, can't remember.
I'm not out to antagonize people, but also if the best article on a subject is Politico then I'm not going to avoid posting it. The second link was some sort of dodgy blog that could have been run by literal Nazis for all I know. I hope not, but I don't know.
I still call on the anti-Politico brigade to post interesting articles from other sources. I check the feed before I post and if the subject is already there I don't post the same news again.
Kind of depends on how you set up the command structure, doesn't it? I'm sure clever people in the EU could figure out a way to avoid being held hostage by a bad actor.
Because to me Politico is good enough. I did however add a second link for people with an aversion to politico, as a courtesy.
I get that you don't like politico, but that's not my problem. I post links that I find interesting. You don't have to read them. You can even block me to avoid seeing any of my links. That's fine, I don't mind.
I strongly disagree with the idea of "Only sources that I find acceptable should be allowed". You don't have to agree, and nobody is stopping you from posting your own content. I won't even complain about your sources, I promise.
👆 Right up there.
I did.

Are they though? Reform has already split into reform and restore, so they aren't as united as you think.
About labour, are they really that bad or do people have unrealistic expectations? I don't know tbh.
