"I think he comes into his own, the prime minister, with his PR, & if anybody can sell to the British public 'buy red mullet, buy John Dory, buy grey mullet', then I think he will have a darn good go," she told BBC SW political editor Martyn Oates."
Forget he & his Gov lied/lies
Altogether it tells me what a superlative prize the GB public is to the worst conniving, inept, crooked, self serving "government" imaginable... & now in office.
As long as it is headed up by a an outright lying but "funny" clown they can continue manipulating & abusing
the malleable population against its better interests, despite the warnings from (us) 'mere' frontline/experienced experts always becoming fact.
These "freeport" "Private Enterprise" SEZ *Charter Cities* are thus now guaranteed as the "saviour" to a fucked Single Market economy

etc....
for a desperate blame the EU for UK choice to leave/lose membership benefits, but never collectively angry at the perpretators, Stockholm syndrome, workforce...
coming to you soon

It (NY Times) wrote of the firm of Teal & Mackrill in Hull, which makes paints for special applications, like fishing trawlers & factory floors. In a โ€œlittle-noticed consequence of the new Brexit trade dealโ€, this paper said, โ€œthe company is facing real concerns about its future
Owner Geoff Mackril said that growing British regulatory burdens on chemicals may mean that eventually he would not be able to obtain some of the additives that make his paints distinctive. โ€œThe worry is that some of those materials that we useโ€, he said, โ€œmay become unavailable
because of those costsโ€.
..if spread across Britainโ€™s ยฃ33 bn a year chemical industry, with BASF estimating that UK REACH could cost the company ยฃ70 million.

Looking back to a year ago when old colleagues & I got together in Leeds to discuss a couple of years making hay swansong...have to wonder again if we did right thing by abandoning plans to Covid: we were sure UK would request transition extension as was "obvious" it'd be needed.
We started as a small freight forwarding company that grew to specialise in direct *groupage* services to the (pre-EU) Eastern European countries...esp Poland & Czech/Slovakia.
The 'big boys' were trans-shipping via Austria while we struck deals with Polish & Czech/Slovakia
hauliers/bonded w'house clearance agents & UK owner-drivers. At our 2003 peak we were getting business from across the UK with faxes coming in showing multiple sub-contracted agents all taking a cut. Funny..
We of course suffered after 2004 despite the *floods of extra traffic*

Again not "new" rules.
And it seems yet more not understanding.
Why? @SamanthaMalin
Each member state of the EU/EEA (inc UK when a member) & EFTA/EEA has its own individual immigration rules for *non* EEA citizens.
By joining the EU or EEA (or bilateral Swiss & EU agreement) you agree to giving reciprocal freedom of movement rights to each participating/member state. What UK students are now being subjected to is each country's own sovereign *not* "new" immigration policy .
For comparison it would be like if eg France had left the EU with UK staying a member state
and then France approaching UK (any member state) to change *its* whole immigration policy to better accommodate French citizens or insert a clause to legally discriminate in their favour

POLICE from more than 30 constabularies all over Britain - including Cheshire - have been redeployed to Kent to help the authorities manage Brexit traffic chaos, it has emerged.
At the same time, it underlined that the costs of calling on other forces would be met by the government. i.e. you the taxpayer warringtonguardian.co.uk/news/19104031.โ€ฆ

There is an invisible traffic jam of UK exports building, amid increasing business risk-adverseness
Scottish Engineering CEO Paul Sheerin told the Scottish Parliamentโ€™s Culture, Tourism, Europe & External Affairs Committee a survey of the members of the association revealed that
โ€œall those who export goods are sufferingโ€ as a result of Brexit. He said: โ€œThese problems are myriad, predominantly involving availability of logistics capacity and increased costs. But what worries them more than this is the impact on their relationships with customers.
โ€œDelays in getting parts in, mean delays in getting goods to customers, and when parts come in late, they lack the capacity to build fast enough and address the backlog.โ€
Scottish engineering firms, Mr Sheerin told the MSPs, were growing increasingly anxious about the

From a friend

"People don't understand the ruinous nature of nationalism and yet we had 75 million die for it only 80 years ago. People have no concept of or care for history, nor do the vast majority care about "the other" - their fellow man
As I've said a few times, only until the ramifications of Brexit have truly harmful consequences - meaning uncontestable unemployment figures or economic contractions and deep recession that can't be attributable to the pandemic, we are deeply in the shit with this.
Just like with Trump, the Tories have resuscitated themselves off the back of a leader most of them probably can't abide - & yet he engages with the (nationalist) proletariat and grants them (perceived) landslides of power. I'm guessing many within Labour felt similarly about TB.
