The problem with the UK is we have an electorate that wants a Japanese approach to immigration, Nordic welfare, an American tax system and a political class that would rather pander to this delusion as opposed to levelling with public about the necessary trade offs. This approach will continue to produce failed leaders until it fundamentally changes.

🚨 The Times Business Pages: The UK has lost £74 billion in goods exports since Brexit.

Key sectors like cars, pharmaceuticals and advanced manufacturing have been hit hardest.
Exporters say the new trade barriers have made things significantly harder.

British food exports are down 22% (£4 billion)

Food is one of Brexit’s biggest losers: more red tape, lost EU markets, and cheaper imports undercutting our farmers.

Ten years on, the data continues to show a clear net loss, not the global trading powerhouse we were promised.

When Britain voted to leave the EU a decade ago, its leaders envisioned a post-Brexit country that could thrive as a nimble, free-trading “Singapore-on-Thames.”

Why did that dream never work out?

My thoughts:

[Gavin White @gavinwhite76]

Pleased to see this important project progressing in Openshaw. On a former brownfield site, 194 new homes are proposed with 62 (32%) as new social rent homes for local families. Great to work with @TomFredRob and our @McrLabour councillors to help deliver this in their ward.🏡

One wonders if the Soho Society of Paris were properly consulted.

The majority of people in the UK would like to rejoin the EU.

The majority of people in the EU would like to see the UK rejoin.

Let's do what the majority want. The sooner the better.

Exclusive: Andy Burnham is being urged by business leaders to rejoin the European Union as new economic modelling reveals it could add at least £92bn to the economy and boost growth by at least 3.6 per cent - helping to fund the changes he is promising.
The study, commissioned by campaign group Best for Britain and carried out by Frontier Economics, a consultancy chaired by Dame Sharon White, the former chair of John Lewis, models the key benefits of EU membership and finds the prize dwarfs every other option on the table.
The report suggests that the UK would recover up to 90 per cent of Brexit’s economic hit to UK GDP - which the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) has calculated at minus 4 per cent by 2030 - far eclipsing value of a customs union or all post-Brexit trade deals combined.
Crucially for a would-be Prime Minister who built his name as the champion of the North, the gains would be felt most strongly - outside London - in Britain’s former industrial and manufacturing heartlands in the East and West Midlands, Yorkshire and the North - due to an “outsized” boost to trade in goods.

194 New homes coming to a brownfield site in Openshaw, Manchester.

This comes as part of the regeneration of a former iron works.

It says a lot about Britain's problems that the UK central government is doing big value for money exercises on an airport expansion that should be fully privately funded and the decision of the local/regional government, not it.

Average London take home pay is £2,900 per month.

A studio apartment in Elephant Quarter is 90% of the average take home pay.

These homes are absolutely pointless.

A relative living in Chengdu, China, sent me this map of the city’s metro system. It is the fourth-longest in the world, with a daily ridership of six million.

The first line opened as recently as 2010!

If it were Britain, we’d still be going through the consultation process.
