It sets a high standard for digital trade rules between the EU and Singapore and raises the ambition of digital trade rules globally.

Microplastics come off synthetic fibres such as polyester in the wash. Clothing accounts for 35% of all global plastic pollution.
Cars and trucks all have tyres, and it has been estimated that 28% of all microplastics in the environment are shed from tyres alone.

For a moment a majority was for it. And at peak leave we voted bit.ly/45cjF6p Like every summit, all around it was only downside. “The greatest act of national self harm” as many have said from Geldof to Ian Kershaw to Heseltine.

I keep hearing about hard working people.
My Dad did 43 yrs down the pit (we were 7th? generation miners)
They powered this country both Wars we continually brag about.
Paid tax until he died of lung disease.
He didn't inherit the pit.
So nobody gives a toss.
Just saying.

This is a wake-up call that Starmer better listen to!
💥💥💥 ... “Once the new EU Commission is formed, it will be important that the Starmer government has more detail to offer on what they want from the 'reset', otherwise the momentum will be lost.”

Brexit severely damaged trade with the EU & the brexiteers who facilitated Trump’s victory will shortly be rewarded with tariffs on exports to the US

It's tough to leave a platform where you've spent years building relationships and growing an audience.
That's why we created Bluesky, an open social network, that gives you freedom from platforms, so you'll never have to feel this way again.
