Labour MP Dame Emily Thornberry has told Andy Burnham to rejoin the EU without a second referendum.
Mrs Thornberry, who chairs the Foreign Committee, insisted the EU was not a “sacred cow” and those wishing not to talk about striking a deal should “get over it”.
“Why shouldn’t we talk about it when the majority of people agree with me that Brexit was a disaster, and we ought to get back into the European Union,” she told Sky News.
Labour MP for Halesowen, Alex Ballinger, responds to Mrs Thornberry’s comments.

SHOCKING: Rioters BURN DOWN government buildings as anti-Trump protests spiral out of control
Student rioters have looted banks and trashed shops in protest against the Trump family’s alleged invovement in a luxury resort development in Albania.
On Wednesday rioters stormed government buildings and set fire to the Ministry of Education, Ministry of FInance and Ministry of Justice. Police used water cannons to disperse protesters.
Student riots flared after a summer of largely peaceful protest demanding the resignation of Tony Blair’s protege – Edi Rama. Those demonstrating claim the government is corrupt and has allowed the sale of protected land to Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

Energy CRISIS: BROKE Labour warned NOT to help Brits at Budget as fuel prices SOAR and markets panic
Justin Urquhart Stewart backs IMF calls for Labour to restrain public spending ahead of an energy price crunch, with gas prices set to rise by up to 25% and an ongoing global diesel supply crisis due to the Iran war and Houthi rebels.
While the British economy defied expectations and grew by 0.1% in August, Urquhart Stewart says the media must stop congratulating Labour on what is effectively a growth rate of zero.
Urquhart Stewart believes a brewing bond market crisis in France could spread to Britain, though a competent Chancellor may use a French crisis to position a more fiscally restrained Britain as a safehaven for investors.

Cut taxes on businesses first because its disinflationary while growing the economy and use the rest to pay down debt.

If things are so great the Government can afford to not increase energy bills by 20% in April then.

OBR forecast wrong, what a surprise. For something so wrong so often why make any decisions from it? Some might say in the absence of nothing else to else, seems like using nothing is the best policy.

I expect the calculation of PMI is fudged just like the calculations for inflation, growth, population, and employment, etc. If its the wrong result adjust the formula until you get the right answer .
@Wypipo
December 29, 2023 at 5:49 pm
“Dodged” as in… tucked it all under the inflation. As in… inflated all the debt away so the working class has already paid for the recession, they just don’t know it yet.

In contrast, this good news on the economy was very reluctantly released on BBC news outlets. Such a typical reaction will no doubt be shared by about 50% of the nation. Sad really.

Surely a economy expert would be better then a "news economist , all you guys do is get the opinion of someone totally unrelated to someone elses opinion you do want, why not just ask the actually person.

When you think of what has been happening since last September, it is no surprise. Fuel prices through the roof = a shit load of extra tax, vat, fuel duty etc. And on top of that some people are now in the higher tax bracket, plus the extra vat collected from energy bills

"we're not using numbers but opinion of an authority".
That called "appeal to authority" and is a logical fallacy.
Do better.
Dismissed.
