Read the neoliberal invective against the EUs publicly owned ports, know why UK is being sold off
"Leaving the EU will enable Britain to capitalise on the Free Port opportunity. Today, the EU Customs Union and EU State Aid laws make this almost impossible"

Mar 1st - Sunak says:
Threats of violence & intimidation are alien to our way of doing things: they must be resisted at all times
Mar 11th - UK headlines:
Tory party’s biggest donor said looking at Diane Abbott makes you “want to hate all black women” & the MP “should be shot”
They said they were taking away the freedom of movement of foreigners to the UK but actually they took away YOUR freedom of movement to 27 countries.
Now they are saying they want to remove the human rights of terrorists but actually they want to take away YOUR human rights.
Once Sunak's 12 Freeports and 74 SEZs are operational, workers rights, unions, all forms of protest and dissent will be forbidden. The UK is being privatised and forced into corporate governance.

In today’s @Telegraph - this . It’s very dangerous propaganda and as ever it’s all about short term money . Can anyone put a price on the value of their children and grandchildren’s lives ? This idiotic rhetoric refutes science and slanders the excellent and essential @theCCCuk
You know it's bad when Conservatives from Rudd to Patel are telling this Govt not to politicise extremism. What we're seeing from Sunak's Govt now is downright dangerous. The issue of extremism is far too serious to be used as an election strategy.

Are we seriously going into a GE with everyone saying we have no money for public services & no one pointing out the 4% hit to GDP caused by Brexit reconfirmed in the OBR report the Chancellor relied on this week & the billions likely lost in tax revenue as a result?
I cannot begin to impress upon you the scale of environmental damage currently happening to the River Test
As this testing shows 👇 stretches of the river are now becoming ecological dead, the River Test for God's sake!
And @EnvAgency, @NaturalEngland do what exactly?
NOTHING!

We got a date yet Matt @MattStaniek for our little trip to Windermere? 😎

The Sunday politics shows are all pointing out we have no money for public services. Why has no one mentioned the 4% hit to GDP caused by Brexit & the billions lost in tax revenue as a result which is mentioned in the very OBR report the Chancellor relied on this week?
What???!!! We know it is the #HostileEnvironment, but not even this most basic duty of care?

"Those regulations are not in place, they lapsed at end of 2023 & Defra needs parliamentary time to reinstate them".
#BrexitReality: at best we reinstate protections we had before, eventually

Yes.

Tory MP David Davis claims there was worldwide shortage of PPE. Nope… you in fact bypassed suitable companies to line pockets of your peers, who then delivered useless PPE. It’s wasn’t about a worldwide shortage, it’s about you putting £££ for your friends above what’s best for the country. You get me?
Humans are creating the third great extinction. If we don't change - 99.9% of critically endangered species will be lost & it will take the earth more than 3 million yrs to recover.
We have solutions to the #climate crisis, implement them. #ActOnClimate#climateaction
Liz Truss took this Private Jet to Australia as lowly Foreign Secretary which cost £500,000 but that wasn't enough so she managed to spend £15,000 on champagne and caviar while she was aboard.
Of course, you paid for all of this.
Chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt has taken to X to tell us the OBR say the net impact of his recent fiscal events will increase growth by 0.7% of GDP
Imagine his shock when someone tells him the same report says Brexit will reduce the UK’s potential GDP by 4% in long run
UK news shows?
Kemi Badenoch has said in today’s papers, that Brexit is a British success story worth billions. The Centre for European Reform, after extensive research, has said tax losses to the U.K. at the year end of June 2022, due to Brexit, amounted to £40 billion.
So who should I believe about the devastating self-imposed shit show known as Brexit? Tough one… 🤔
