The UK has joined Russia, Belarus, and Turkey as the only countries in Europe where you can’t protest peacefully.
This marks a new low for the UK and British democracy. This could have been prevented if Labour grew a spine and opposed the Tories.

Volt UK is a pro-European political party, campaigning for the UK to rejoin the EU, introduce Electoral Reform and fight for a more progressive Britain 🇬🇧🇪🇺
- Remember how the UK Government praised its free trade agreement with New Zealand? The EU has just signed their agreement with New Zealand. The difference? The 🇪🇺-🇳🇿 agreement protects EU producers and consumers, ensuring that the EU market isn’t flooded with goods from 🇳🇿
- “Why do you keep talking about Brexit so much?” Because nearly every problem Britain is facing has been caused or exacerbated by Brexit. Until we address the root cause of our problems, we will never recover. Follow us and help us expose Brexit’s problems! #FollowBackFriday
- Replying to @darrengrimesThat’s not true, Darren. AstraZeneca chose Ireland because they need easy access to pharmaceutical supplies from the EU. Because of Brexit, these supplies are harder to import now. It doesn’t matter if the UK reduces taxes, companies still have to deal with Brexit red tape.
- Norway uses EU Passport Gates because it’s in the Single Market. Switzerland uses EU Passport Gates because it’s in the Single Market. Iceland uses EU Passport Gates because it’s in the Single Market. Here’s a solution - Rejoin the Single Market!
- Let’s talk about Charlotte Owen - a 🧵 She’s 30, and has been appointed to the House of Lords FOR LIFE. There is a super injunction on her, meaning that nobody in the UK media can talk about her, how she got appointed to the House of Lords, and her connection to Boris Johnson
- Immigration to the UK rose to a record high of 606,000 in 2022. Britain spent more than 7 years complaining about immigration from the EU, making EU citizens feel unwelcome and forcing them to go home, only to replace them with even higher numbers from the rest of the world.
- Replying to @Nigel_FarageYou and your corrupt cabal caused Britain to be broken, Nigel. You encouraged people to vote for Brexit, which caused Britain’s GDP to drop by 5%. You caused the Tories to have the most right-wing policies possible. You are responsible for this, not the nurses or train drivers.
- The current chaos with the government started with Brexit. Our trade deficit started with Brexit. Our border problems started with Brexit. Our broken country started with Brexit. Britain’s current problems were all caused or exacerbated by Brexit. It’s time to rejoin the EU.
- Rishi Sunak said that Northern Ireland has a unique opportunity to be the only area of the UK to access the EU Single Market. This will bring a huge amount of investment and business to Northern Ireland. Why can’t the rest of the UK get these same benefits? #WindsorAgreement
- We want to rejoin the EU because we want to see Britain thrive again. We want Britain to trade with its neighbours again. We want Britain to help lead Europe again. We want to feel proud of this country again. That’s why we’re attending the @MarchForRejoin. Join us! 🇬🇧🇪🇺
- Keir Starmer can’t make Brexit work. Rishi Sunak can’t make Brexit work. Nobody can make Brexit work.
- From Hillsborough, Brexit, Immigration, to the current BBC presenter scandal, the lies The Sun has spewed for decades represent everything that’s wrong with the British tabloid industry. Unless we say “enough is enough”, these lies will continue. Don’t Buy The Sun. #bbcnews
