"The cavalry's European not American" headlined letter that appeared in the Hull Daily 7 March 2026. The writer says that, although Britain does have a tariff-free deal with the European Union following Brexit, the “rules of origin” paperwork still makes it costly and difficult for UK firms to trade with the EU. Furthermore, they don’t benefit from competitive trade deals that the EU is able to negotiate with other countries.
The UK still has a tariff-free deal with the #EU, but it’s
buried British firms under mountains of #Brexit bureaucracy and "rules of origin" red tape, says @hulldailymail.co.uk letter.
Meanwhile, EU's securing massive new deals without us #Mercosur
#RejoinEU = easier trade & more global muscle.

We all remember the scenes at the Sunderland Brexit Referendum count and that the city voted to leave. Could that be coming back to bite them? If the proposed “Made in Europe” rules exclude the UK Autocar reports Nissan Sunderland will close.

Letter titled “Pro-Europe group has nothing to hide,” published in the Hull Daily Mail (5 March 2026). Peter Packham, Chair of Leeds for Europe, rejects claims of bias and argues pro-EU groups are open, grassroots and member-funded.
Chair @leedsblue67.bsky.social responds in Hull Daily Mail (5 March) to claims that #LeedsForEurope and other #RejoinEU groups are “biased”.
If you’re looking for real misinformation about #Brexit, Peter suggests examining parts of the press and certain opaque “think tanks”.

Reform are holding a rally in Leeds later this month…we don’t want them in our city.
Two letters that appeared in The Yorkshire Post on 28 February 2026. The first is headed “We need to be a member of Creative Europe and urges the Government to rejoin the 41-member Creative Europe programme – something that would release funds for the UK creative sector. The second headlined “Exporters exposed” is by Jas Olak, Vice Chair of Leeds for Europe. It says global uncertainties make better European Union relations “simply common sense”.
Two @yorkshirepost.co.ukletters: Good #EU relations means an economic boost.
Our Vice Chair @jazz072.bsky.social says global uncertainties make improved ties “simple common sense”.
Second letter: Urgent Govt decision needed if to rejoin big #EuropeanUnion creative industries programme. #RejoinEU
: A letter headed “Get Brexit story straight” published in the Telegraph & Argus (Bradford) on 28 February 2026. The writer says Brexit supporters make many new, often contradictory claims to justify leaving the European Union. They do this because all the promises made at the time of the Brexit referendum in 2016 have been broken.
"The problem Brexiters have is all the promises made to voters 10 years ago have been broken" - letter in today's #Bradford Telegraph & Argus.
They make excuses to justify #Brexit: "Often what's delivered is the opposite of the promises. Look at immigration, public services & red tape."

A cartoon of a traditional red British phone box, in which men appear to be fighting. There is a sign pointing to the telephone box which says “Brexit Meeting”. Outside is a bemused looking man, a superhero hoping to use the telephone box to change in to his costume.
@bradfordtanda.bsky.social letter says old, broken #Brexit promises won't work anymore.
So Brexiters make spurious - often contradictory - new excuses to keep us out of #EuropeanUnion. Suitable venue suggested for meeting where they can meet & thrash out differences.

This letter headed "Still suffering" appeared in The Yorkshire Post on 26 February 2026. The writer argues that, contrary to what an earlier correspondent maintained, the UK is not perfect on the issue on animal welfare in farming. Membership of the European Union meant UK activists could campaign for better standards across the continent, but post-Brexit trade deals means have to accept cheap imports from much further afield.
Membership of the #EuropeanUnion meant British animal welfare campaigners could fight for higher farming standards across the continent, says a @yorkshirepost.co.uk letter.
Now #Brexit means trade deals exposing UK farmers to cheap imports.

A letter published in the Telegraph & Argus (Bradford) with the headline "MPs' Brexit debate", published on 24 February 2026. It highlights a debate by MPs due to take place in Westminster Hall on 24 February 2026 marking the 10th anniversary of the Brexit referendum, assessing the impact it has had in the past decade.
#Starmer: “We’re not Brexit Years’ Britain”. #RachelReeves: “Almost half trade with #EuropeanUnion”.
Now local MPs get say in today's (24 Feb) debate - #Bradford T&A letter: Urge your constituency rep to be there & speak. Contact them via @europeanmovement.co.uk tool (see following comment 👇)
A vintage-style cartoon illustration of a comedy duo resembling Morecambe and Wise on a theatre stage. The comedian on the left gestures broadly while the one on the right smiles. A large speech bubble above them asks, 'What do you think of BREXIT so far?' with 'BREXIT' in bold red text. In the foreground, the silhouette of a large audience responds with multiple speech bubbles all shouting, 'Rubbish!' and 'RUBBISH!'.
Is #Brexit rubbish? Well, only 11% say it’s more of a success than failure (bestforbritain.org , Sept 2025).

Screengrab taken from the What UK Thinks website on 22 February 2026 showing - once don’t knows are removed - that 66% think Britain was wrong to vote to leave the EU, 34% right.
Remove ‘don’t knows’ and it’s 66% wrong vs. 34% right
The latest What UK Thinks poll of polls records that 58% of voters think it was wrong to leave the EU 📈 whilst only 30% think it was right📉
The largest margin ever and if it was for a 10 propaganda campaign by the right wing Brexit media 🗞️ it would be even greater.
This is from 2016. It is not helpful to spread fake news.

Letter headed "Interference by Russia must not be skipped", which appeared in The Yorkshire Post on 21 February 2026. Peter Packham, Chair of Leeds for Europe, says the Rycroft Review into foreign financial influence in British politics - due to be published in March 2026 - would have been an opportunity to address concerns about Russian interference in the 2016 Brexit referendum. However, the UK government has already ruled this issue is outside the review's remit.
#UKLabour Govt missing chance to come clean about suspected Russia attack on 2016 #Brexit vote - says Chair @leedsblue67.bsky.social in @yorkshirepost.co.uk letter.
That's despite review into foreign influence in #UKPolitics due next month after #ReformUK Moscow bribes scandal.
