Three years ago today I was preparing to have both my legs amputated following Covid-related sepsis. Amid all the negative media messages labelling disabled people as scroungers and a drain on society, here's your reminder that you too could join our ranks in the blink of an eye.
Now even they are sceptical that Brexit will deliver the transformation they’re still waiting for seven years later. ‘We should be closer to Europe’: Brexit regrets simmer in leave-voting Boston.
What transformation did they expect?

In the UK, individuals can't get legal-aid if their gross annual income exceeds£12475, or where their gross income is greater than £12475 and disposable income is less than £37500.
Boris Johnson made £6m last year, got £250k legal aid.

Teesside Freeport
This is NOT going away. 90% of the Freeport business given to 2 businessmen. So far their profits are £104,000,000 on zero investment.
Tory Ben Houchen previously said "nothing to see here"
Now he's claiming "naivety" in business. Purrlease...

Suella: "Tell them I didn't do it"
Aide: "I just did"
Suella: "I just told them I did do it"
Aide: "But, you said ???"
Suella: "You know who I am don't you? I never told
you to say that"

Don't know about the other two but I reckon Suella would definitely use the "Do you know who I am" line of defence. That's some hat trick for the Home Office. @paddypower what would the odds have been for that treble.
🚨 | NEW: The Home Office, which sets speeding laws, now has all three of its main ministers caught for it
🚓 Suella Braverman: Speeding in a 50; 3 points
📵 Tom Tugendhat: Phone while driving; banned for 6 months
🚓 Robert Jenrick: 30mph over speed limit; banned for 6 months
Coffey gives the standard Tory answer: “What is clear blah blah blah is getting on with the job blah blah blah tackling illegal migration, blah blah security of our country blah blah blah.” Rinse and repeat.

£104m profit for the businessmen yet to inject any money into Teesworks. £246m of taxpayer money has already been spent on remediation + UK Infrastructure Bank has loaned £107m to be repaid with taxpayers’ money via TVCA.
Michael Gove prevented the NAO from launching an inquiry.
Teesside Freeport: the mask slips
by the ever wonderful @BylineTimes@NEBylines
Latest @PrivateEyeNews@rbrooks45 has solved the puzzle of land worth £15,000,000 sold for £110. A Tory speciality.... a tax dodge to avoid higher rates for land transactions. Teesworks Ltd made profit of £60m, yielding £54m for the businessmen.
Together with scrap, that’s £104m profit. The businessmen have yet to inject any money into Teesworks
