Yes, Keir Starmer must do better and go faster in bringing Britain closer to Europe. Here’s how to reset his reset | Naomi Smith MPs warn the plan so far lacks direction and drive, but there are four clear ways to really move on from our disastrous Brexit, says Naomi Smith of Best for Britain

“Four ways to a better, happier, more successful You” - no, not a pre-beach diet, but some really good advice for the Labour gov’t.

EU-UK relations: Will 2026 be the year to reset the reset? A lot has changed in the world since the UK voted to leave the EU in 2016. In response, the UK and EU need to be more willing to change fundamental aspects of their post-Brexit relationship.

Excellent, comprehensive update on the EU-UK Reset from @cerianbond.bsky.social at CER

Exclusive: India to slash tariffs on cars to 40% in trade deal with EU, sources say India plans to slash tariffs on cars imported from the European Union to 40% from as high as 110%, sources said, in the biggest opening yet of the country's vast market as the two sides close in on a ...

EU set to gain significantly greater car quotas in their trade deal with India as compared to the UK-India deal signed last year.

UK trade policy gains compared to the EU will then be Malaysia and Australia - with the latter not seen as well balanced. www.reuters.com/world/india/...

Rejoining Erasmus+ does not mean losing the Turing Scheme. Together, they can expand opportunities, widen access and give young people more ways to learn and train abroad.

'Brexit was devastating for farmers. Brexit and the loss of the single farm payment had a devastating effect, and promise to replace the money have been broken.' Rory Stewart, Co-Host, the Rest is Politics Podcast

'Brexit was devastating for farmers. Brexit and the loss of the single farm payment had a devastating effect, and promise to replace the money have been broken.' Rory Stewart, Co-Host, the Rest is Politics Podcast

Leaving the European Union has stripped rural communities of stability and security, as the farmers who were told they would be better off, are now facing higher costs, more red tape, and less support. This is yet another example of a false Brexit promise.

Quote from our published article by author Andrew Duff: “British politics are suffering a severe case of cognitive dissonance.”

Quote from our published article by author Andrew Duff: “British politics are suffering a severe case of cognitive dissonance.”

How much longer can we tolerate the lopsided instability of Britain’s relationship with the EU?

ANDREW DUFF (@andrewduffeu.bsky.social) argues that the current deadlock calls for an unusual Royal Commission to cut through parliamentary paralysis.
