  1. Azhar Sukri reports that Icelanders have chosen sovereignty over integration. In a stunning vote, 52.8% of voters rejected the move to join the European Union, prioritizing domestic fishing rights and national identity over geopolitical pressures in the North Atlantic. Despite threats from President Trump regarding Arctic territory, the electorate prioritized local autonomy over deeper EU ties. This result highlights how resource control often outweighs abstract security debates for smaller nations. Read more about this historic decision at the link below. Great reporting by Azhar Sukri.

  5. Voting is under way in Iceland, as they decide whether to resume negotiations on joining the European Union. EU membership negotiations have been suspended since shortly after the 2013 election.

    Two pollsters are covering this vote. One has Yes slightly ahead, the other has No slightly ahead. Both say it's too close to call.

    Polls close at 22:00 GMT, with results expected to come in overnight and into tomorrow morning.

  6. Sam Meredith reveals: A crucial vote looms this Saturday as Iceland's future hangs in the balance with an EU accession referendum. President Trump’s Greenland obsession, coupled with melting Arctic ice and new shipping routes, adds a sharp geopolitical edge to the debate over the nation's strategic location. Icelanders’ decision could deliver the EU a timely political win. Discover more about this pivotal moment in the Arctic. Sam Meredith deserves praise for this timely analysis. cnbc.com/2026/08/28/iceland-eu #Iceland #EUreferendum #ArcticSecurity #TrumpGreenland

  17. EU mobile roaming charges scrapped bbc.com/news/business-40281013

    As mobile phone roaming charges return today for Uk customers visiting Europe I just wanted to share a memory of one of the “Europe’s greatest achievements”. I also want to thank #nigelfarage for absolutely fucking nothing and ask everyone to keep in mind that the mobile phone comanies were at pains to stress that the good folk lf Britain would keep free roaming regardless of the outcome of the #eureferendum

  18. and already #DavidCameron's fantasy #politics is having an effect, as #RishiSunak thinks about calling a snap #generalelection... just like Cameron's #EUReferendum to keep the Euroscpetics quiet (and which he thought he would win for remain)....

    Of course, that said, having an election right now would suit a lot of us, although not the best time (it transpires) for Labour to be pulling together... but again, for some here, a weak(er) Labour Govt. might be no bad thing!

  19. If the UK Tory party puts electoral popularity ahead of #climate action it will complete their betrayal of the future that began when they forced #Brexit through with an undemocratic #EUreferendum that completely ignored the wishes and aspirations of the young and well educated in favour of he prejudices and bitterness of the old and the ignorant. How dare they?

  20. Fact 5: Support for #Brexit collapsed quickly after the #EUReferendum.

    The protest vote that drove #Brexit (which is the vote that matters) collapsed in a very predictable fashion almost immediately after the #EUReferendum

    I wrote a paper about this: Who is NOT voting for #Brexit anymore...

    tinyurl.com/45bz4tz8

    The biggest declines in #Brexit support were coming from the places where the #ProtestVote was highest... not surprisingly.
