Economist Mariana Mazzucato says Brexit led to businesses leaving the UK, shrank market opportunities and damaged investment.

She tells The Fourcast that Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson have still not been held accountable for what she calls one of the country's biggest economic mistakes.

Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson have both denied lying to the public.

Angela Rayner - £40k underpaid stamp duty - repaid. Lost jobs in Cabinet and Dep. PM.

Peter Murrell - £400k theft from SNP - going to prison

Huge coverage of both

Nigel Farage - £5m undeclared bung (possibly more) - goes to ground for a month.

Media coverage? You judge.

Carney basically saved the UK from spiralling into a full on recession

[Dale Vince @DaleVince]

Farage is taking political donations into new territory and to new levels. The influence of big money in UK politics can no longer be ignored. Wealthy people, big business, and foreign-linked money are finding new ways into the system - from companies to cryptocurrency.

The danger is clear: politicians make decisions based on the interests of their donors, not the country. Rather than play political whack-a-mole trying to close the latest loophole in donations - crypto being the very latest - we should deal with the root problem. A complete ban on political donations is simple, clear and enduring. No donations means no loopholes.

And no influence.

We are just Germany in the 1930s instead of blaming Jews we are blaming migrants.

But they aren't responsible for Austerity, Brexit or the profiteering crisis.

‘My phone was hacked by the Kremlin who exposed the £5m bung no-one is supposed to know about’ is certainly an interesting new angle..

I wonder if the journalist involved has broken any other major scandals? 🤔

Oh!

There's no doubt about it - Farage's brexit has been a disaster for Brits, and the UK needs to get back as close to the EU as possible!

🚨 #BBCQT audience member in Scotland nails it
“We need back into the European Union… lots of the things we’re talking about tonight and the economic problems we’re facing are as a result of Brexit.”

Let's unite the UK, tackle the cost of living and make the honest case for rejoin.

“Leaving Europe is the worst thing I have experienced in my whole time in business.”

“Johnson and Gove should be in jail. As a chairman I am obliged to tell the truth to my shareholders.”

“If I lie it’s a criminal offence. Politicians lie to the public — their shareholders — and get away with it.”

“All that bullshit about the 350 million quid going to the NHS after Brexit.”

Harrison Ford, "Humanity is a part of nature, not above it"

"We have an essential mandate to protect 30% of the world's land and sea by 2030, to prevent the mass extinction, to slow the warming of our planet"

"We are still losing nature to profiteering, corruption, conflict, including land that is already protected on paper. These efforts matter but they're not enough"

"We need cultural change"

"We need to extend social justice"

"We need to respect and elevate the indigenous people that are being marginalized, and in many cases, killed in cold blood"

"These communities have long understood that the trees, the mountains, water, soil, are not commodities, they are relatives to be cherished for following generations to embrace and protect"

"We can all play our role in embracing that wisdom in our day to day lives by loving the planet"

"By honouring nature's authority, her generosity, the bounty she affords us. The justice of her example"

"Because the world you’re stepping into, the world my generation left you, is a real mess”

Happy Birthday Sir David

We won’t protect what we don’t love & we won’t love what we don’t know

Thank you for enabling us to know & love this precious planet even more deeply

Now we must urgently act on that love - and protect & restore the earth while there’s still time 💚
