@carolvorders Something very suspicious here, I suspect an engineered attempt at insolvency to 'merge' this council into a CCA, transferring public wealth to private hands and start land grabbing like Teesside, this area sits on the border of Southhampton (Solent) Freeport.👇🏻
@carolvorders Well, what do you know? US ExxonMobil listed here as a tax site with Southampton Water...ExxonMobil's environmental record has faced much criticism for its stance and impact on global warming, so the usual greenwashing BS of deregulated Freeports is a go solentfreeport.com/what-is-a-free…
'As the UK’s number one export port, Southampton handles exports worth £40 billion annually, including £36 billion destined for markets outside the EU'...deregulation dystopia off-shoring wealth for the 1% will devastate what's left of UK economy. #Brexit abports.co.uk/locations/sout…
Now ask yourself why Labour FM Mark Drakeford has just signed off on 2 Welsh Freeports with Singham, Gove and Sunak.
More on Sunak's freeports here, great articles, one key name keeps coming up, Shanker Singham, the brians behind Brexit👇🏻 bylines.cymru/tag/freeports/
Millions of pounds going into the so-called 'leveling up', program, are you wondering why the Brexit heist was engineered by the likes of Singham and his transatlantic network of liberty? Deregulation is key, the UK is being privatised and transformed into 1 big tax haven.
Ring-fencing zones from the host country allays any misgivings venture capitalist's may have had about Govt interference. Anti-governance ensures that democracy is ritually blocked at every opportunity to secure post-Brexit goal of total economic liberty.
SEZs, Freeports date back to 1600's with East India Company, picked up later with British colonizing Hong Kong where 80 freeports were set up in 1840s which kickstarted the drug trade on the back of the 2 Opium Wars. Today the zone is a globalized dystopia
How does a 'solidarity union' function when Drakeford's Freeports pact with Sunak, Gove and Shanker Singham paves the way for patchworks of corporate sovereignty in Wales? He's just invited anarcho-capitalists to carve up Wales for off-shore profiteering. theguardian.com/politics/2023/…
Read @eyes_lilly expose of Sunak's Freeports bolstered by the Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill and of course the REUL Bill which will further trap locals in investment zones, aka charter cities.
The tactic is to make rejoining EU impossible. #Brexit medium.com/@cormack.lawso…
People are confused, they don't know which parties represent their interests anymore. Predatory capitalism has aggressively accelerated the absence of a robust democratic left. A nominal centre-left has muddied the waters.
A lack of managed capitalism since the 70s has led to a dire economic situation where the unravelling of the social contract has ushered in malign corporate influence over our elected politicians. Globalism destroys checks and balances on GDP so profit share outweighs wage share.
When people feel vulnerable, when money is scarce they are far more likely to turn to tyrants out of desperation, but this is exactly what headlines of a non-dom press cultivate. They pretend to have your interest at heart but their hearts are blackened soulless organs of hate.
No country has ever left the European Union (EU) except Britain.
Anyone saying that Brexit can work has sold their souls to populism.
Ireland is the biggest beneficiary of the €5.37 billion Brexit Adjustment Reserve which was created to support regions and sectors worst affected by Brexit. In Dec 2021, the European Commission adopted a decision to allocate a total of €920.4 million from the Reserve to Ireland
Mohammed bin Salman, "Neom will have a lot of ports, some of which will be on Saudi territory, with others in Egypt, that will also provide benefits to the other countries of the GCC, as well as Jordan, Egypt, and lots of places in the world.” Wake up UK.
Charter cities are about exiting democracy, Brexit is far more than leaving the EU, it entails the reconfiguration of the UK by carving up entire regions into patchworks of competing sovereignties. Sunak's Freeports and SEZs will fall under corporate laws.
Be under no doubt that Sunak is emulating NEOM with his Freeports and investment zones, carving up the UK into patchworks of corporate sovereignty beyond Govt reach. neom.com/en-us/newsroom…
Be aware The Daily Wire on Twitter is a ticking time bomb of unquantifiable far-right populism, the invective they are spreading is beyond dangerous and of course, is backed by Musk.
What is going on with Elon Musk and Ron DeSantis? | Robert Reich theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Twitter started to become a rightwing media hotspot when Musk lifted bans on thousands of accounts that spread disinformation about the pandemic and the 2020 elections.
More recently, Tucker Carlson has said he would revive his show on Twitter after losing his Fox News slot.
It’s why Musk refused a seat on Twitter’s board and instead mounted a hostile takeover. It’s why he hates unions.
And now Musk wants to control everything else. He wants to dominate the right wing of American politics.
Both Tories and Labour have been extolling the virtues of 'integrated healthcare' under the auspices of creating more choice so patients can skip NHS waiting times. What do you think?
Record rise in people using private healthcare amid NHS frustration theguardian.com/society/2023/m…
I'm a Brit living/working in The Hague, you have to take health insurance. I pay €140 pm, but also have to pay the first €350 before insurance kicks in. The standard of healthcare is very high compared to NHS, but the Dutch are envious of free healthcare. I'd still prefer NHS.
What worries me about the dismantling of the NHS is that the model of Healthcare insurance will not be modeled on the EU's but on the US system which destroys people's lives and livelihoods.
