Aren't we overestimating us a bit here?
Many of us have been there: in the driverโs seat on a tricky hill start, when the engine cuts out and the car judders to a halt. Since the EU-UK summit last May โ the event that was supposed to map a new and dynamic way forward โ stalling is fast becoming a real risk for Keir Starmerโs most crucial long-term policy area: improving Britainโs relationship with the EU. Todayโs report by MPs on parliamentโs foreign affairs committee rightly warns that despite the hugely welcome โ and essential โ progress in relations with our closest allies and neighbours, Starmerโs project is โsuffering from a lack of direction, definition and driveโ. If Labour is to deliver a growing economy, improve living standards for every UK resident and tackle the very real threat of Reform UK, getting the EU reset back into gear is a matter of urgency.
Naomi Smith in the Guardian. She has diagnosed the problem very well: Starmer's reset is losing blood fast and looks to be in trouble.
However, I don't agree with the prescription.

The expertise on trade and Europe in N10 or the Cabinet Office is inexistant even though there are many civil servants in HMG who worked with or in the EU when we were a member. Until we see a serious effort building the teams that will support the reset the prime minister can't be taken seriously

My friend sent this to me an hour ago. She said
โThis is why I will vote for the Greens. They have a moral compass of hope.โ
I wholeheartedly agree.
Lifeโs difficult enough without a politician in the government advocating cruelty and marginalisation
The US and China opposed condemning Russia for it's attacks on civilian infrastructure.
They are OK with war crimes against civilians, putting them in the dark and cold at temperatures of -20ยฐ C, or -4ยฐF.
This will not be forgotten.
Boycott the #USA and #China where you can..
Trump is collapsing physically and mentally.
Are the wolves circling?

If itโs true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.
This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things Iโve ever seen from the United States government.

US is hitting Iranโs drone factories the way Ukraine wanted to hit Russiaโs, USW says
The United States is hitting Iranian drone and missile facilities and a joint campaign with Israel-the same category of Target Ukraine has sought to strike in Russia with Tomahawk

Can we start using 'Trump Regime' now?

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and itโs good sheโs gone.
But this doesnโt change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.
Looks like The Express wrote the headline before the conference happened.
Itโs clear now that they were due to announce someone like Kate Hoey, and it didnโt happen, leaving them with a defector that no one knows.
Itโs embarrassing.
Trump Finally Fires Kristi Noem, Replaces Her With MAGA Senator The ICE queen goeth: Donald Trump reportedly soured on Noem after back-to-back disastrous hearings. ...
Tesla has always been a minor player. The only thing outrageously inflated they have is the stock market value. It is not a business, it's a cult, a Ponzi scheme. When they sell only one car a year, will the stock value stay above one trillion?
The effects are real. This from last year. ๐คญ๐คญ๐คญ
Stop buying cars from the South African Nazi.
Teslaโs US vehicle sales fell year over year for the fifth straight month in February, according to data released Tuesday by Motor Intelligence.
The company sold 38,500 vehicles during the month, down 11.8% from 43,650 units a year earlier.

get a load of Kristi Noem's facial expressions as Rep. Kamlager-Dove enters articles in the congressional record with headlines like, "Lewandowski taking out trash at Noem's DC home" and "ICE Barbie's mile high private chamber with alleged lover exposed"
Calling in the Clintonโs in for a closed-door testimony while ignoring other widely implicated individuals is no mistake. This is an active, and massive, cover-up.
They should be enjoying what they voted for: lost of foreign markets; soaring prices of fuel, fertilisers and other inputs; finance more expensive than ever; shortage of labour; price of produce plummeting.

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, theyโre under attack.
Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.
