Freeports to cost businesses that export £35bn in extra tariffs ... I have an idea, why not join a tariff free single market on our doorstep where we designed the rules and have access to 400m+ consumers instead

I live in Teesside, we don’t have a john Lewis & the reason for that is clear. I’d love a john Lewis here, it would mean we were prosperous. We do have tory MPs though & for the life of me, it doesn’t add up #torysleaze

EU regional funding still supporting our recovery from Covid in Darlington...... who will replace it when it runs out @Gibbo4Darlo ?🤔

This arrived today, handmade mask for my wife, in memory of her mum, Iris. Made by good friends from @a_l_o_f_t_s theatrical costumiers trying to keep their head above water while theatres are closed and tours cancelled. Great quality, worth every penny, please look and buy. X

I've just been told some firm EU vaccine export figures by an EU source. Vaccine doses exported from EU to:

🇬🇧 9 million
🇨🇦 4 million
🇲🇽 3 million
🇺🇸 1 million

Total: 35 million

Vaccine exports to EU from 🇬🇧🇨🇦🇲🇽🇺🇸: zero

“Brexit disruption at the start of the year will reduce British productivity by 4% over the longer term and hit first quarter GDP by 0.5%, the Office for Budgetary Responsibility said on Wednesday.”https://t.co/lhASyV8niv

This can fuck right off. And then when it's done fucking off, it should take itself into a dark alley and fuck off some more, before reaching its final resting place, where it can fuck off a little further for good measure. https://t.co/Mg8k4Cj2jy

Not on Dehenna's watch surely.

We’ve had enough of exports.

[The Guardian @guardian]

Fury at Gove as exports to EU slashed by 68% since Brexit https://t.co/JIbqOGkU3c

[Roland Smith @rolandmcs]

Great respect to Remainers criticising/attacking the EU on the Article 16 incident.

We now need to see the same from Brexiters whenever the British Govt's stupidity demands it i.e. on pretty much every other day of the year.

[Femi @Femi_sorry]

Putting aside why we have a Northern Ireland protocol to begin with, the EU Commission doing this without the prior consultation and consent of the Irish government is wrong.

Is ‘total disaster’ code for ‘sunlit uplands’?

[Anna Turley MP @annaturley]

South Yorkshire bosses brand Brexit deal a 'total disaster' set to cost jobs and close companies https://t.co/aVR8UjDiVY

Roger Daltrey has signed a letter demanding action from UK govt to ensure visa-free touring in the EU.

The jury's out on whether labour is trying to wash its hands of any commitment to restoring a strong working relationship with the EU.

HAS KEIR STARMER REACHED BREAKING POINT?

Last week Keir Starmer announced that he was abandoning his commitment to restoring free movement of workers. In doing so, he surprised many.
