"BORIS Johnson has ripped up plans for a series of foreign trade trips this year so he can stay in Downing Street to prioritise his levelling up agenda" He's an utter idiot, but he's our utter idiot. Now, in the crucial negotiations, BJ's left the pitch. thesun.co.uk/news/10912369/…
But there is calculated method to the madness: if Boris Johnson delegates all aspects of Brexit negotiations, that's another layer of blameable people insulating him from inevitable failure. ("It would have worked, but Dominic Dover-Calais Raab messed everything up!")
Ironically, Brexit represents levelling (think "bulldozer") rather than levelling up.

Surely there must come a point at which "causing unnecessary panic" becomes a crime? What defence can there be for articles like this one in the Express, about an asteroid that will never come nearer than 5.4 million km from Earth? This is Orson Welles "War of the Worlds" level.
Here's another example, from earlier today.

Quite literally the only instance of "panic" being mentioned is in the headline. Nothing in the article backs up the use of the word.

But of course, the kind of people who allow the Express to dictate their worldview will now panic!
One more example, because nobody can stand to paddle in the cesspool that is the Express for very long.

Headline: causes panic about an ice age coming "soon".

Body text: refutes the headline, and says actually because of global warming an ice age is thousands of years away.

I need your help (please read all 3 tweets)

There are hundreds, maybe thousands of local news websites across the UK.

Would you be able to check your local one(s) for Brexit-related news?

Specifically, job losses, company moves and the like.

[NOW READ TWEET 2 - THANKS]

1/3
What I'm looking for:
- News stories *newer than 13 December 2019*
-Stories explicitly connected to, or the result of, Brexit. The connection has to be made in a quote *by someone connected with the firm* e.g a CEO, senior manager etc.

[NOW READ TWEET 3 - THANKS]

2/3
What I am NOT looking for:
- News stories where link to Brexit is speculative (e.g. connection is made by the journalist, a union representative, an opposition MP etc.)
- News stories without the name of the company in them (e.g. "leading X company" is useless).

THANK YOU!

Matt Hancock has fallen into the Liz Truss trap of allowing incriminating old tweets to linger... thus proving that his principles have been subsumed to his desire for power.
Here's the matching screenshot...
Oh, and then there's this...

Boris Johnson is/was advised by Steve BANNON – Trump’s campaign manager & VP of the notorious, now-shuttered electioneering firm Cambridge Analytica, which he co-founded in 2014 w/ hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer, who also backed the Breitbart sites.
bylinetimes.com/2019/06/12/bor…
📌Johnson and Bannon became friends when Johnson was still Foreign Secretary and Bannon was still in the White House in early 2017.

📌They have been in contact ever since and the fruits of this friendship have been evident for some time

Let’s talk about Boris

One of most disreputable, toxic, selfish politicians I’ve ever met. As Tories choose between British Trump & ex-Health Sec who’s mission was to destroy health service, let's remember why #Johnson is #UnfitForOffice

2018: Letterboxes
Wrote that women wearing niqab looked like “letterboxes” & “bank robbers”; triggering attacks on our Muslim community, “letterbox” graffitied on homes, and giving racists new language in hate speech

As editor of the Spectator he was responsible for - and clearly condoned - this racist drawl. He and his racist worldview has no place in Parliament, let alone @10DowningStreet
