Never forget that between 2010-2018 £340,000 per year of tax payers money funded the ERG. Each Tory MP that paid £2000 subscription fee claimed that back on expenses. Information on ERG research was never made public, Rees-Mogg's staff denied he was even a member. #BrexitLies
ERG also has a 2nd bank account for private donations, the extent of their funding runs into the millions. Tax payer money was crucial to ERG's success. Westminster 'regulator' looked the other way. Brexit was forced by a cartel of far right libertarians and disaster capitalists
Private foundations have very few legal restrictions, by law they have to donate 5% of their earnings to 'no-profit' charities. Well guess what? They get tax deductions so they can impact society under the aura of generosity to salve public resentment. The ultra wealthy run Govt
Govt refuse to comply for over half of FOI requests, your taxes are supposedly a guarantor of that info. IPSA (Parliamentary Standards Authority) aggressively fought any attempts to release ERG's research effectively legitimizing the 'party within a party' status of the ERG.
Here's WHY the ERG aggressively shaped Govt policy, it's for post Brexit libertarian hell, their 'hard Brexit' ideology is stealthily underway; deregulation/repealing of EU laws, charter cities/freeports, Neo-Feudalism coming to UK🧵
The tax payer picked up the tab for a cartel of far right ideologues intent on razing a stable country's economy, rule of law, to the ground. A revolving door of corporatist cash buying political influence copied and pasted from the US, Austria and Australia=Disaster capitalism
Large % of ERG 'research' was done via whatsapp, you know what happens when mobile phones are requested as evidence of dodgy Govt dealings? They get burned, lost, replaced, 'high school excuses for missing homework' Rampant libertarianism rife in UK. I just got blocked by Hannan.
How much public awareness is there about Charter cities? Mordaunt, Mogg, Baker, Truss etc are readying the UK for them, all those small farms given Govt bungs to close, provides land for property magnates to invest in private homes, schools, hospitals...
verfassungsblog.de/the-danger-zon…
Your families lives are being shoehorned into a post Brexit dystopia. Curricula in 'academies' as Mogg wants to call them means indoctrination, private healthcare, 'Home-rule' will push poor out of rich cities into slums forcing workers to commute from them to earn slave wages.
Add it all up, cost of living crisis, fuel and food poverty, ambulances queued up outside overwhelmed hospitals, wealth tax on oil magnates 100% voted against by Tories, water companies slap on wrist fines encourage them to ignore improvements and reap profits, same for partygate
Charter cities under corporatism can make their own laws beyond reach of Govt because they aggressively lobby policy changes that furthers all out deregulation. Thiels(Paypal) charter experiments in Honduras have had disastrous impacts on locals, it fails,he takes money and runs.
This is anarcho-capitalism, Brexit under the guise of patriotism, the populist mantra smuggled in a Trojan horse choc full of +450 r/w think tanks funded by a global cartel of oil and property magnates. They lept out onto UK soil and now they are wreaking disorder and chaos.
Fred Koch sold crude oil separation techniques to Stalin and Hitler in 1930's, Koch empire born from world war. Their contempt for welfare state seen as 'theft' of their taxes has shaped r/w policy and poisoned democracy for decades, it has steadily grown into a corporatist giant
In defence of tearing up the NIp imperiling GFA, Frost just had a meeting with guess who? Heritage Foundation the worlds most influential r/w think tank. Rev $86,808,369 Exps $75,065,736. Truss's Global Network of Liberty will cause UK free market mayhem, you are chattel to them
Operation Yellow Hammer a Govt doc that actually predicts what is happening now in the UK save for the cherry on top the pandemic that accelerated a situation that disaster capitalists thrive on. Great British PPE Heist and Covid Fraud Goldmine for criminals and Govt alike.

Public money is one big giant ATM for this Govt. Enough!
Deregulation is well underway for the UK's post Brexit future, take a look at this thread on UK Govt awarded #Palantir £5.9m for ‘Provision of Data Integration Services’ 18 months ago
£1.7m extension last week
Peter Thiel is extremely dangerous
Understand that Govt regulatory bodies and watchdogs such as they are will be dismantled under the next wave of Tory libertarian despotism. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) already turned a blind to partisan Brexit policies of ERG
Typo - blind 'eye' of course

I don’t quite believe what I’m seeing here, the disabled community having to go out and protest over a Labour Government’s decisions that could actually kill them. Image

Legislation paving the way for 10 corporate city-states in the US should be complete by the end of the year.
Zone Fever is here in the UK, but no one in the MSM or much of the Independent media is talking about the carve-up of Britain into patchworks of corporate sovereignties.
Reminder - Deregulated Freeports and SEZs are stepping stones to free cities.
theguardian.com/us-news/ng-int…
Inspired by the political philosopher Albert Hirschman, figures including Goff, Thiel and the investor and writer Balaji Srinivasan have been championing what they call “exit” – the principle that those with means have the right to walk away from the obligations of citizenship, especially taxes and burdensome regulation.
Retooling and rebranding the old ambitions and privileges of empires, they dream of splintering governments and carving up the world into hyper-capitalist, democracy-free havens under the sole control of the supremely wealthy, protected by private mercenaries, serviced by AI robots and financed by cryptocurrencies.

Trump and Blackrock move in on the Panama Canal.
The recent acquisition of key port infrastructure near the canal underscored this initiative. A consortium led by the U.S.-based investment firm BlackRock has secured control over critical maritime terminals in Balboa and Cristobal, which the Hong Kong-based CK Hutchison Holdings previously managed. The U.S. administration has viewed the $22.8 billion deal as a pivotal step toward regaining strategic influence over one of the world’s most vital trade corridors.
Panamanian officials have reiterated their nation’s sovereignty over the canal. President José Raúl Mulino has firmly stated that the ownership and control of the canal are not subject to negotiation. “The Panama Canal belongs to Panama,” Mulino affirmed, pushing back against external narratives suggesting otherwise.
Blackrock has also bought 3 British freeports, Felixstowe, Harwich, and Thamesport.
Keir Starmer announced a UK Govt partnership with Blackrock on November 21st 2024, the Sovereign Corporation is coming.Image

What @guardian and the entire MSM are ignoring is that a suite of tax reliefs including National Insurance Contributions for employers exist in the UK's 74 deregulated SEZs and 12 Freeports rolled out by Sunak and Truss, and are fully backed by Starmer's cohorts.
Employer National Insurance Contributions relief: eligible employers with a business premises in an Investment Zone tax site will be able to apply a zero rate of secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions on the earnings of eligible new employees who are expected to spend 60% or more of their working time in the tax site. This rate can be applied on the earnings of all eligible new employees, up to £25,000 per year, for 36 months per employee.
The UK is being privatised under Zone Fever.

Somerset is mentioned in the Guardian article.
Below is Somersets Councils website trumpeting the deregulated benefits for companies siged up to their SEZ.
Enterprise Zones were created by Government to provide key sites for economic growth
and regeneration across England, supported by deregulation and financial incentives
attached to each zone. For businesses these incentives potentially include simplified
planning and access to fiscal incentives. In addition, local authorities with jurisdiction over
the area containing the Enterprise Zone are able to retain all the uplift in business rates
income generated by the site for a fixed period of time.

Wiltshire is mentioned in the Guardian article, Swindon is also host to three SEZs or 'Growth Zones' (which is a new one for me)

Donald Trump is not the only enemy of ordinary people, Starmer's changed Labour Party are inflicting disturbingly similar austerity policies on UK citizens' lives and livelihoods.
Rachel Reeves's and her entourage's neoliberal mindset knows there will be no growth under her disastrous fiscal policies, that they will translate to punishing rises in mortgage costs, that people will have to spend their savings to live, that there is no profitability in the UK for businesses, that the UK will be dependent on foreign capital, eg Chinese and Russian money will be sustaining the UK economy.
The myth of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) exposed👇🏻Almost all of UK industry is owned by the US.
This means Bits have to pay rent to access their own market.
Rachel Reeves and Jeremy Hunt's perpetuate the 40-year-old 'big lie' that is FDI - Foreign Direct Investment. Incoming investment has two forms: physical plants and new buildings OR foreign purchases from existing companies.
Politicians such as Reeves and Hunt are known to confuse the two forms under the rhetoric of 'economic growth and Britain being the best place in the world to invest'.
UK households will pay high interest rates to foreigners. The poorest will be bankrupted to make rich foreigners wealthier.
Since the 1970s FDI has paved the way for govt ministers to literally 'sell off the family silver' to US private equity. On top of that Starmer's embrace of AI is all about automation and destroying people's jobs. Lastly, Starmer picked up the baton of Sunak and Truss's 74 deregulated Special Economic Zones, and 12 Freeports, Labour MPs, Mayors, councillors, Lords, and Baronesses were active board members of the Tories nationwide SEZs/Freeports consortia. Labour signed off 86 regions of the UK to the likes of Blackrock, PEEL Group, DP World, Deloitte, Blackstone, Chevron, and many more malign corporations with atrocious track records in fraud, environmental pollution, tax evasion, human rights abuses, banning of unions.
The City of London, which is a charter city takes precedence over ordinary people’s lives and livelihoods. Rachel Reeves is panicking.

Starmer is building a Sovereign Corporation that despises, demonizes, and punishes the most vulnerable in society.
Starmer has handed over governance powers to 700 corporate lobbyists, where the Govt takes a ‘secondary position’. The public sector is being dismembered, people are going to die.
This is part of Zone Fever, an infrastructural attack that is currently installing 86 deregulated Free Zones.
48 SEZs and 8 Freeports in England
18 SEZs and 2 Freeports in Scotland
8 SEZs and 2 Freeports in Wales
Corporations in the 74 SEZs to receive £11 billion 840 million in State aid (public money).
The UK Government has invited corporations to set up and ‘rescue’ democracy from its failures.
Corporate power, corporate governance, and corporate sovereignty is going to eclipse the country, the UK is being privatized.
These are just some of the firms that have met with senior Labour figures over the last 12 months.
Blackrock, Palantir, Amazon, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, Fujitsu, Deloitte, PwC, EY, Google, The City of London Corporation, BP, Goldman Sachs, Thames Water, BlackStone, Telstra Health, Macquarie, Meta, SGN, EDF, Leonardo, BAE Systems, Cadent Gas, National Gas, Natwest, Virgin Atlantic, Abrdn, Barclays, Coinbase, The British Private Equity & Venture Capital Association, Bluebird Care, Edelman

Keir Starmer's changed Labour Party is now in partnerships with US Blackstone and Blackrock, two of the most powerful and criminally corrupt shadow banking asset management corporations on the planet. Blackrock and Blackstone own everything and believe corporate governance is the answer to 'removing the obstacle' of democracy and big govt.
Deregulation is God.
