Nissan confirms new X-Trail to be made in Japan instead of Sunderland. That's hundreds of UK jobs gone. Japan and the EU have just signed the world's biggest trade deal - global Britain..... bbc.co.uk/news/business-…
Expect the Brexiters to spin this in #Nissan
And please don't blame the Leave voters of Sunderland for this. They were had. And it should make everyone who wants this country to thrive very fucking angry indeed

Daniel Kawczynski's "History of Britain" because.... well someone had to. As told to Otto English #Satire
thepinprick.com/2019/02/04/dan…
Still great mind that he is Kawczynski's no Paul Nuttall. Dan writes history - Paul made it
Well this has proved popular thank you

Turn on the radio to hear multi-multi millionaire Jacob Rees-Mogg explaining to Nick Ferrari why poor people aren't poor. #lbc
In that weird accent
Apparently only "absolutely poor" people are poor. Relative poverty doesn't count. Or something. Relative poverty is when you can't get that second footman - or a new chaise longue for the east wing

Why is Britain turning blind eye to Leave side’s lawbreaking? The Irish Times asking what no British publisher dares ask.

I'm disgusted that Arron Banks swans about apparently untouche by this
What will happen is that years down the line there will be some sort of investigation and by then it will be too late. Arron Banks and his cronies have wrecked the country and then just walked away.

Brexit already doing massive harm to the UK. Over 200 examples of job losses, lost investment, police & army prepping, companies moving assets to the EU or redomiciling. Meanwhile, the Government burns through £billions chasing a nutty no deal Brexit. Real life, not project fear!
The Government has spent £4.2 billion pounds on Brexit preparations (£2.2 billion in previous Budgets, plus an additional £2 billion in the most recent Budget.) 1/205

EU citizens will be obliged to register to stay in the UK after Brexit (deadline is June 2021). The registration system, which cost the Government £175 million, will have to cope with over 3,500,000 applications, or several thousand a day on average. 2/205

“May has left our fingers in the EU mangle but there is a way to get free”; highly dillusional article by ⁦@DavidDavisMP⁩. 1/

thetimes.co.uk/article/335917…
Take this for example, ditch #EU regulation and replace it in order to reach a trade deal with the US. They will have us for breakfast, forcing further deregulation and acceptance of harmful agri-products. Industry don’t necessarily want it and in services they will squeeze us./2
This; how, what and when? @DavidDavisMP has been Secretary of State for 2 years and hasn’t come up with any substantial and viable proposals, as the technology doesn’t exist. Neither has he strongly engaged with the #EU27 to work this out due to lack of internal HMG agreement. /3

"Trump has used Harley-Davidson as an example of a US business that is being harmed by trade barriers. Yet Harley has warned consistently against tariffs, saying they would negatively impact sales"

Harley, hit by tariffs, shifts some production overseas apnews.com/6c8942f7363743…
Important issue highlighted by @riotwomennn: are tariff exemptions determined by bribes?

Corker: "22,000 companies have asked for exemptions.There is no basis to deal with them. Are they going to grant these exclusions based on political contributions?"
Trump’s trade war with the European Union is going to cost Harley-Davidson as much as $100 million a year and force the manufacturer to shift production out of the U.S. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

UK’s @AmbassadorAllen:

#Novichok is not a weapon that can be manufactured by non-state actors… #Russia has provided no credible explanation… Therefore, we have no alternative but to conclude that the #Russian state was responsible [for a chemical weapons attack on my country].
This was an attack on #UK soil… #Russia is failing to comply with the conditions of the Chemical Weapons Convention…

Let us turn to the part of the CWC that #Russia is not talking about - Russia did not declare #Novichok & is therefore in serious breach of the CWC.
This was a reckless act… #Russia officials have repeatedly threatened those they consider traitors, before & after March 4 attack.

Russia has a history of political assassinations, interfering in other countries & a total disregard for civilian life.
