[The Spectator @spectator]

If we have learned anything from the Makerfield by-election campaign it is what a slippery character Andy Burnham is.

Last September, in an interview with the New Statesman, you may remember, he said that ‘We’ve got to get beyond this thing of being in hock to the bond markets.’ The bond markets themselves responded immediately by reminding Burnham that governments spite them at their peril.

Yields rose sharply as investors, who were already taking Burnham seriously as a potential prime minister, feared that a government under his control would borrow recklessly and lose control of public finances.

And now? Burnham claims that it was all a horrible mistake; he was misunderstood.

This idiotic talk of Canada joining the EU really reveals a complete lack of knowledge about both the EU and Canada.

For one, it is against the EU treaty to allow countries not geographically in Europe to join.

But ignoring that - Canada would have to throw away its trade deal with the USA! That is simply not going to happen.

[British Normandy Memorial @britishmemorial]

The British Normandy Memorial will host a Service of Remembrance to mark the 82nd anniversary of D-Day. You can watch the service LIVE at 9.30am BST (10.30am French time) this Saturday 6th June: https://t.co/AYN98mF6gc

The service will be attended by a small group of Normandy and Second World War Veterans, Lord Richard Dannatt (Memorial Chairman), Sir Thomas Drew @UKinFrance and Lord @Vernon_Coaker (whose Uncle is named on the Memorial), plus other dignitaries.

French schoolchildren will take part, alongside Youth Ambassador Alexander Churchill, Sir Winston Churchill's great-great-grandson.

The European Commission criticized U.S. plans to impose a new 10 percent tariff on the EU today after the Trump administration found that Brussels had failed to ban the import of goods made with forced labor.

Claims that London is a "no-go hellscape" are gaining traction, and the U.K. financial services industry has had enough. https://t.co/Fa1uepLk4m

‘Tangible Change’
How about a General Election? That’d be a tangible change. Farewell to this totally incompetent administration. Arguing in the Commons about Trans people, instead of condoling over Henry Nowak’s murder, and the issues raised. Labour’s priorities. @TimesRadio

This is what happens when you elect incompetent governments.

Yes, we can blame Labour. But they only got 17.7% of electorate... most of the country did not and does not want them.

It's important to vote, folks.

Complete nonsense. Almost no new jobs. Costing the rest of the economy eye watering amounts. Plenty of green millionaires funded by tax payers and consumers however

[Robert Colvile @rcolvile]

Absolutely bloody told you so

[David C Bannerman @DCBMEP]

What a waste of time and effort. All this ‘green crap’ is a drag on the economy.

[David C Bannerman @DCBMEP]

Bad policy to blame.

@cricketwyvern @LiamHalligan @julianHjessop This was never about the economy for the rejoiners, it’s a false morality issue, which makes them feel superior.

The EU poses an Orwellian nightmare, it hates democracy:

[Liam Halligan @LiamHalligan]

Conventional wisdom says that leaving the European Union has harmed the British economy.

Listen to almost any Brexit debate – over the airwaves or on the professional conference circuit – and it’s invariably taken for granted being outside the EU has done serious economic damage.

Now we're in June, and as the 23rd approaches – the ten-year anniversary of that hotly-contested, era-defining referendum – this message will be rammed home again and again.

But it simply isn’t true.

I agree it is exhausting repeating everything over and over again. So here goes. Brexit was a choice to free the UK from the EU’s regulatory system. It allows the UK, if it chooses to adopt a better regulatory system that will offset the costs of leaving the CU and SM which apply specifically to GB to EU trade.

[Julian Jessop @julianHjessop]

"UK’s growing green economy worth more than £100bn a year, research finds..." 🤔

This is guff.

Most of the 'green' jobs being 'created' simply reclassify or divert workers from jobs that already exist and are already relatively highly paid and productive.

Moreover, the fact that 'green' GDP is growing relatively quickly is meaningless if the sector is a drag on the rest of the economy.

In particular, the mad rush to 'net zero' means UK energy is more expensive and less secure, costing jobs and undermining growth elsewhere...

[Burnside @BurnsideWasTosh]

In an effort to respect the family of Henry Nowak, Keir Starmer has bravely hidden behind them, saying that the last thing they would want is for him to have to answer any questions about the two tier nature of policing in this country.

@joerichlaw so who's pulling Mandelson's strings to get this 'deal' sorted?
