These results show once again that clean power is the right choice, with new onshore wind and solar 50% cheaper than building and running new gas. By backing renewables at scale, weโ€™re lowering bills and taking back control of our energy security. theguardian.com/business/202โ€ฆ

This is seismic. When the Telegraph - the house paper of Brexit - publishes a 2,000-word obituary admitting: ๐Ÿ“‰ Brexit has cut UK GDP by up to 8% ๐Ÿ“‰ Investment down 18% ๐Ÿ“‰ Productivity down 4% ๐Ÿ“‰ Employment down 4% ๐Ÿ“‰ No trade benefits ๐Ÿ“‰ No regulatory freedom ๐Ÿ“‰ No immigration control ๐Ÿ“‰ No growth โ€ฆitโ€™s over. This isnโ€™t Remainers talking. This is the Telegraph saying Brexit has been an unmitigated economic failure. The numbers are now so bad, so undeniable, that even the architects of the project canโ€™t keep pretending. Brexit wasnโ€™t a reset. It wasnโ€™t sovereignty. It wasnโ€™t taking back control. It was a slow economic strangulation: a textbook case of national self-harm, dragging investment, wages, growth and confidence down with it. We canโ€™t build a future on a foundation of lies. Time to repair the damage. Time to rejoin the single market. Time to put the country first.
๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Peak F*CK ME Brexit moment When the Telegraph - THE BREXITGRAPH - publishes a full-blown obituary for Brexit, admitting: ๐Ÿ“‰ GDP down up to 8% ๐Ÿ“‰ Investment down 18% ๐Ÿ“‰ Productivity down 4% ๐Ÿ“‰ Employment down 4% โŒ No trade benefits โŒ No control of immigration โŒ No regulatory freedom โŒ No upside whatsoever โ€ฆthatโ€™s not a debate anymore. Thatโ€™s a death ๐Ÿ’€ certificate for Brexit!!! This is the moment the Rightโ€™s own economists finally say the quiet part out loud: Brexit has been an unmitigated economic disaster. Not mixed. Not needs time. Not teething problems. A. Total. F*cking. Failure. And if even the Telegraph can say it then every politician still defending Brexit is lying to the public and lying to themselves. Itโ€™s time to stop pretending. Itโ€™s time to fix this mess. Itโ€™s time to rejoin the single market. Country before bullshit. ๐Ÿ”— archive.ph/2025.11.29-132733โ€ฆ

My message to ministers and negotiators here at #COP30: Engage in good faith to reach an ambitious compromise. 1.5ยฐC must be your only red line. Be bold. Follow the science. Put people above profit. This is the hour for leadership.

Hi, actual scientist here ๐Ÿ‘‹ Science doesnโ€™t work by proving a negative. You donโ€™t prove unicorns donโ€™t exist. You look for evidence they do and if none shows up, you move on. And hereโ€™s what weโ€™ve found after decades of research: Millions of children. Dozens of studies. Multiple countries. Same result every time: No causal link between vaccines and autism Thatโ€™s not uncertainty. Thatโ€™s overwhelming evidence. Saying โ€œwell you canโ€™t rule it out completelyโ€ isnโ€™t science. Itโ€™s appeal to ignorance - pretending โ€œnot disprovenโ€ is the same as โ€œpossible.โ€ If we accepted that logic, weโ€™d have to fear: ๐Ÿงช Organic broccoli causing autism ๐Ÿ“บ Television causing autism. ๐ŸŒฆ Clouds causing autism. Because nobody has โ€œruled them outโ€ either. Science isnโ€™t about imagining risks. Itโ€™s about measuring them and vaccines have been measured more than almost anything else in medicine. So letโ€™s be clear: ๐Ÿ’‰ Vaccines have evidence. โŒ The autism claim has none.
