@IanDunt What is this innocuous happy politics crap people on here are suddenly tweeting? Labour MPs, Mayors, councillors, Lords, and Baronesses fully support Sunak’s 12 Freeports and 74 SEZs as sitting members of a nationwide Freeports/SEZs consortia. Each SEZ receives £160 million in…
Rhodes is burning...What really matters is not that a Tourist playground burns, its the animals burned, wildlife lost and Nature destroyed...but out headlines talk of cancelled flights and holidays. If we think this is inconvenient..you wait to see the inconvenience of climate…

For every £1 you increase a nurse’s pay packet by, 81 pennies make their way back to the Chancellor of the Exchequer be in through tax or consumer spending. This means that funding a pay rise for NHS staff is 5 times cheaper than is claimed by politicians.
Tory govt: it’s not our job to ensure our citizens have access to food, clean water, health, education, a safe workplace, energy, emergency services, or shelter. Just one question: what the feck is your job then?
A private ambulance company took over services at a cancer hospital. Now they are so often late patients are missing appointments, the booking system is “chaos”, and vehicles haven’t been upgraded for 12 years. But don’t worry, profits have hit £135million! Full story in new Eye.
So first there was no meeting. Then there was a meeting but it was Sue Gray who asked for it. Then Dacre/Lap🐕 Media wound up to do her in. Now it turns out there was a meeting and No 10 asked for it. And it was because Johnson wanted to discuss ‘timings’. Yeah right! PM has 1/3
It might be slightly less divisive if appointments to number 10 were based on talent rather than did they support Brexit or not?
I was told by Tory MPs, at the height of the Rashford row, that members of the govt were threatening to withhold money from schools in their (deprived) constituencies if they voted to extend free school meals. These practices aren’t new but Will Wragg has shone a light on them.
This is delightful news which has the double virtue a) of being reasonable and b) driving a certain section of the population completely nuts.

I’m looking forward to all these Tories who are opposed to ‘showing papers’ in the Covid context joining us in opposing photo ID at polling stations… 👀

Pretty devastating glimpse into the damage one Man and his Cronies can wield on US Democracy and a warning of the similarities we have here in the oldest continuous Democracy in the World.
While Downing St announces their deal as a victory let’s be clear about what’s happened. A trade deal has been negotiated to make trade less smooth and less simple. The economy will take a hit. In return we no longer have free movement to 27 other countries. BUT blue passports.
