Extraordinary. Who would have thought that Johnson would lie to Labour MPs? @CarolineFlintMP

You know. The Johnson that was going to drink champers with Crispin Odey when they’d pulled the wool over Labour over election dates and Prorogation #ToriesAtWar #C4

@JolyonMaugham
Goodness me. Yes. They ARE planning to diverge from the EU on workers rights.

@NickCohen4 Let’s not forget this from July 2019 Sir Jim O’Neill, ex Chair of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, “Government figures deliberately promoting the No Deal Brexit risk” is a “free lunch” for hedge /investment fund managers.

Some ALSO financially back the PM and Party to do it.
@NickCohen4 It isn’t necessarily sinister to take short positions. It might be the prudent thing to do.

But when you put money into MPs and Parties to push a state that will harm the country’s economy SO THAT the PM can create the conditions where you clean up, that is not OK.
@NickCohen4 3/. This is the Business Insider story.

The Electoral Commission website records the numerous donations to the Tory Party and Johnson from hedge and investment fund people.
