Flipping through the major newspapers this morning and not finding any profiles of Biden voters in diners who felt left behind these past few years and are excited for the new governing majority. Why is that?
This article is raising its head again. Once more we need to stress that this will only apply to SOME UK nationals who can combine statuses. It is not FoM, these are limited mobility rights subject to strict criteria which some people can access... https://twitter.com/BritishInEurope/status/1291767673966264321
SOME British citizens - there are hoops to jump through, additional conditions to meet, and this will not apply to all British citizens. https://twitter.com/POLITICOEurope/status/1291748977126367233

My kind of news day:

Republican Madison Cawthorn, who voted to overturn the election results, admits the race was not fraudulent after he was challenged to back up his lies. https://cnn.it/2MluE8K
Love this. The percentage of people in France who want to take the Covid vaccine is growing steadily.
Up from 49% to 67% over the last month. Still some way to go, but definitely moving in the right direction ๐ซ๐ท๐ https://twitter.com/coulmont/status/1353255871552352256

Still incomprehensible but this is what we did to ourselves
Two quotes from todayโs Observer struck me. The first is from Andrew Rawnsleyโs comment piece:
โRemainers struggled to find ways to make technical-sounding issues matter to the public. Among many voters and many politicians, the great benefits of being inside the ..
Now at story #57...they just keep coming...and still not a single, tiny, tingle of an apology... #stillwaiting #BrexitCarnage
1. So many stories coming out revealing that Brexiteers sold Brexit on lies and that reality of Brexit is turning out - just as experts had warned - to be a fiasco and an enormous act of economic self-harm for UK. Iโll keep track of some in this Brexit reality thread๐งต ๐ https://twitter.com/lizzzburden/status/1348911168002412545

It seems that your company has suspended deliveries to the EU @LanceForman? #BrexitCarnage
@LanceForman @MarlboroughOf I tried to order some English wine from your website.
Iโm in mainland Europe. There appears to be a problem with delivery - no shipping options available.
Is this the Brexit you ordered?
nearly half a million vaccinated in last 24 hours. 6.3m first doses now delivered
@JMPSimor @michaelgove @BorisJohnson BBC says businesses asked to relocate to the EU to avoid brexit problems. How is this good the UK? How is this good for the economy and jobs
My Mum has just sent me this from a friend in Germany and it's messing with my head ๐
Appalling scenes as snowflakes attack the beloved Churchill statue.
Dear @WDR , could you please get in touch! Many people in the UK would love to see this with the interviews in the original English and subtitles. Can it be done? For the sake of our millions of British friends, who didn't vote for this!

@CharlesTannock This quote I saw a few years ago sums up the position perfectly: Ireland in the EU has "replaced a servile relationship with one state with a collegiate one with 27".
Yeah, you know a thing or two about professionally prepared provocation, right? https://twitter.com/RussianEmbassy/status/1353338151893409794
Hypocrites continue to inflate the fake #Navalny case to interfere into internal affairs of our country. This is a professionally prepared provocation, encouraged by embassies of Western countries, including US Embassy in Moscow.
