Sajid Javid now declaring the UK is to become a protectionist cartel on labour markets. I think Dianne Abbott actually had the nerve to say "fairer immigration system".

I'm genuinely disgusted that anyone is buying into this, let alone our "leaders".
And now when are we going to hear them renegotiating CETA to remove the mobility provisions which make an "unfair" immigration system? When are they going to renegotiate any relevant investment provisions in our existing trade deals?
Because some trade deals do tend to allow people who want to put a whole load of cash into the market a reasonable amount of access, but if we're only doing that based on specific trade relations, that won't be fair, right?
I mean, we will be massively damaging our country, but this is a "fairness" thing, not a "normalised racism" thing, and apparently leaving was "not just about money".
Really stop calling liberalising labour markets as fair or unfair, because, by rights you should be applying the argument to the goods market, the service market, and the capital market. But I don't hear that "unfair" argument there...
No, we only hear the "unfair" argument when it comes to people coming here from other countries to live and work.
This is not about fairness. It never was about fairness. Politicians should reject these stupid arguments and all this out for what it is.
