"Buy American, Ignore British: The £27bn Scandal Brexit Created"
While you were told Brexit would "take back control," your government was quietly handing £27bn of YOUR money to American corporations every single year.
No preference for British suppliers. No "Buy British" policy. Just a massive wealth transfer from British taxpayers to US companies - who are ALREADY being subsidised by their own government.
Meanwhile, America's "Buy American" laws are so strict they track every contract to foreign companies and have a dedicated "Made in America Office" to keep taxpayer dollars at home.
But here's where it gets truly sinister...
Keir Starmer's partnership with BlackRock. Lord Livermore telling 700 corporate lobbyists that governance powers are being handed to corporations. The merger of 12 freeports, 74 Special Economic Zones, and 200 AI Growth Zones into one massive corporate playground.
This isn't incompetence. It's deliberate policy.
Brexit didn't free us from EU bureaucracy - it freed American corporations from having to compete fairly for British contracts.
The EU's state aid rules that Brexiteers called "red tape"? They were actually protecting us from exactly this kind of systematic economic colonisation.
Want to know how deep this rabbit hole goes? How private equity firms like KKR are capturing British waste management for £4.2bn while local councils pick up the tab? How Tesla moved its battery factory from Germany to Texas because America weaponises state aid while we hand out taxpayer money like confetti?
The full investigation reveals the shocking truth about who Brexit really served - and it wasn't Britain.
Read the complete exposé on my Substack. This is the story the mainstream media won't touch because it reveals Brexit's greatest lie: we didn't take back control, we just changed masters.

Hello everyone, I've started a petition that demands transparency on the UK Government's nationwide rollout of 86 deregulated Free zones.
It needs 5 people to sign it before it goes public.
This is a UK Government petition, you have to be a British resident to be eligible to sign.

It needs 10,000 signatures before it gets considered by the government.

It needs 100,000 signatures for the petition to be considered debatable in Parliament.

Below is what the petition will say when it goes live.👇🏻
Demand transparency and a public review of the UK Govt's 86 free zones impacts.

What This Petition Sets out to Do: To ensure full transparency by releasing data on governance, funding, and operations of free zones, of corporations like Blackrock and Deloitte links to the zones. Plus a public review to assess impacts, such as CPOs, also job displacement, potential corruption risks, and value for taxpayers money.

Why This Petition Matters: Impacts; lax security (Teesside), question of value for taxpayers money, £64bn in projected costs over 25 years, LCIA/ISDS mechanisms, secondary legislation, deregulation, land grabbing, split of profits in favour of private sector, 10 year corporate tax breaks, relaxed state aid rules for corporate welfare, green washing by fossil fuel companies, mass CPOs, plus digital AI Growth Zones
What We Want: We urge the Govt to release data on all 86 free zones’ operations.

The right wing think tank, Policy Exchange, has released a big report today recommending young people on PIP “be required to look for work, to volunteer or be engaged in training.” Only one problem: PIP is not an out of work benefit.

[Frances Ryan @DrFrancesRyan]

Thanks but this doesn’t change my point. Pip is to pay for the extra costs of disability - it’s not to get people into work. You can want a “clear departure” of its use, but it makes as much sense as criticising an orange for not being an apple. They’re not the same thing.

Keir Starmer's changed Labour Party is now in partnerships with US Blackstone and Blackrock, two of the most powerful and criminally corrupt shadow banking asset management corporations on the planet.
Blackrock and Blackstone own everything and believe corporate governance is the answer to 'removing the obstacle' of democracy and big govt.
Not content with making serious incursions into the public sector, Blackrock have set their sights on 'natures assets' which means green spaces in the UK can be identified as new additional and tradeable commodities in their financial portfolio.
This really is the end of social democracy in the UK.
It took Labour to finish off what Sunak and Truss started with their nationwide rollout and resurrection of 86 deregulated free zones that Labour MPs, Mayors, councillors, Lords, and Baronesses signed off on during the bidding process between 2021 and 2022.
Of course none of this is mentioned in the MSM, ask your friends and neighbours about free zones and they will look at you like you have two heads.

Coming to the NHS soon 😠 if Wes Streeting gets his way. Neoliberal Labour are out to privatise the NHS. An American surgeon explains USA healthcare system problems and why she is no longer a surgeon.

🚨 King Charles and Prince William are exempt from paying corporation tax — costing the UK millions every year! Let’s demand the Government close this unfair loophole. Sign the petition now! 🖊️ https://t.co/DcCK7U7Cam

BREAKING -- Trump says he's kicking undocumented immigrants out of Social Security.

One small problem, though -- undocumented immigrants are ALREADY ineligible for Social Security benefits.

You know, because they don't have Social Security numbers. Because they're undocumented.

Poor old Isabel - SO preoccupied with culture wars that she believes all it would take for us to be a match for the Chinese navy is a different recruitment policy.

Three Racists Rule America

Elon Musk is rehiring DOGE staffer who quit after racist social media posts exposed

JD Vance, with Trump’s support, urged billionaire to ‘bring back’ employee who proudly called himself a racist.

[Wendy Siegelman @WendySiegelman]

Bloomberg reports 19 year old Edward Coristine who is on Musk's DOGE squad was fired by a cybersecurity firm for leaking company secrets - his brief contract terminated after an internal investigation. This was in 2022. Not surprising but still outrageous.

@pamelar63719682 @DrEilidhMaria @wesstreeting Streeting is deliberately defunding the NHS to make it dysfunctional so the public will swallow wholesale privatisation and medical insurance. If you want to see how bad that is, look at the number of bankrupt people in the USA due to medical bills. It's horrendous.

[BOF58 @bofasib]

@SusanStOswald @DrEilidhMaria @wesstreeting What it needs is a government that will stop following a neoliberal agenda (as per all governments since Thatcher's) and properly fund public services. If you think Reform is going to do that, I'm afraid you are utterly deluded.

[BOF58 @bofasib]

@maryBCHR @DrEilidhMaria @wesstreeting Chronic government underfunding. Too busy following a neoliberal agenda started by Thatcher. Trickle down economics, utter BS. Never going to work. Wholesale system collapse incoming.

[BOF58 @bofasib]

@StellaDoves @DrEilidhMaria @wesstreeting No it isn't. You're simply shit stirring.

[BOF58 @bofasib]

@Affronter84 @DrEilidhMaria @wesstreeting It shouldn't be but that's what he's doing. Labour are just another set of useless politicians following the same neoliberal BS as successive governments since Thatcher's.

[BOF58 @bofasib]

@PatriotSteve91 @JillSilluzio @DrEilidhMaria @wesstreeting I suggest that the fact that the doctor in question includes their pronouns shows they understand a lot of complex issues and is a compassionate person, admirable qualities in a medic. Something you, a supporter of a convicted felon and sex offender, appear to be totally lacking.
