Freedom of Movement of people, goods, services and capital are certainly indivisible in the context of the Single Market.
But outside of that context, Freedom of Movement of people could certainly stand alone, as a first step.
It does in Switzerland.
And between Ireland and UK too.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.
BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned
NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

I've never known anyone who was obsessed with immigration who wasn't an out and out loser and an absolute racist bigot.
I'm saying it because it's simply not said enough.

Jack Duffy attaches a respirator to his bagpipes to play through tear gas. “I always play it whenever the police retreat because it's like, ‘You fucking ran while we stayed,’” he says.

Love watching the curling at the Olympics but why Steve Cram? He won't allow a moment of silence if he can help it and 'explains' the statements made by his co-presenters, who are Curlers. Remove him and the commentary would be great

UK trains, including in Scotland, are all rented.
It is the most profitable part of the rail network and was privatised in 1993-1997.
Now we rent £9bn worth of trains which last for 25 years, for £3bn a year.
It is the worst deal ever.

My hunch is that McSweeney really believed a ‘Blue Labour’ approach was the right way to win back the ‘Red Wall’ seats, while radically underestimating the reality of anti-Tory tactical voting
I have made similar comments to this⬇️
"He sees the British people – and to be fair, with some excuse, as an Irishman from Cork – as brutes."
But whatever the excuse, it's still racism and he should have been disqualified from his position, if that is how he feels.

Have to say… “uber-woke, net-zeroist, rejoinerism” sounds very appealing.
Particularly in light of the fact that anti-woke, fossil-fuel-ist, brexitism has been such an exhausting and ruinous shitshow.
