Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at 10 Downing Street. One is from up North another is from Poland, and the third is a Tory Party Donor. All three go with a Tory Party official to examine the fence. The contractor from up north takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil. "Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about Ā£9000. Ā£4000 for materials, Ā£4000 for my crew, and Ā£1000 profit for me."

Lets not forget---and lets be clear
The EU had no need of a border on the island of Ireland, or down the Irish Sea. UK did.
The EU had no desire to undermine the status of Brits in Spain, or Spaniards in Britain. UK did. The EU had no desire to add tariffs and mountainous red tape to trade with the UK. UK did.
The EU had no need to trash member states and predict - and wish upon them - the demise of their political union, economy and currency. UK did.

If you only read one article make it this one .

1st few mins are brief summary easily read but the rest is possibly the most worrying piece of text Iā€™ve seen. This is Lordsā€™ Committeeā€™s analysis of Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) between UK & EU.

unravellingtheratsnest.org/politics/the-lā€¦ T#an analysis of the shit hitting the Brexit fan

ā€œPerhaps it was permitted so to be scrutinised because that Committee too was to be disbandedā€“the reports published last wk were its swan song

Something else getting sneaked through.
We all know that the pension age for women born in the fifties has been raised. Did you know a campaign called "Back to 60 movement "has won the right to a Judicial Review and is taking the DWP to the High Court ? On the 5th and 6th June they will attempt to get the 3.9 million women justice over non consultation in raising the pensionable to 66 and above. Michael Mansfield QC will lead the case and the argument for the movement.

A COUP HAS TAKEN PLACE IN UK - AND MOST PEOPLE HAVENā€™T NOTICED OR DONā€™T CARE

The Supreme Court ruled that PM Johnson lied to the Queen, lied to Parliament and lied to the people about his reasons for proroguing Parliament. Most people didnā€™t notice or didnā€™t care.

The Supreme Court also ruled that PM Johnsonā€™s real reasons for proroguing Parliament were to subvert the accountability of his government to Parliament. And still nobody noticed, nobody cared.

If there was ever a glowing indictment of a society that doesn't care about those at the bottom of the ladder - it's Universal Credit. Over 4 million people forced into a grim struggle to make ends meet because the Tories took a big austerity shaped axe to our social security over the past decade and they did it under the guise of, 'there's no money left for these things'.
