The UK now spends more per week on extra ("red tape") import/export customs declarations, alone, from leaving the customs union, alone, than it did on its weekly EU contribution...
although that is falling as UK export trade into the EU continues to fall away.

There's a moral confusion in this kind of coverage.
Anyone can condemn the killing of people they like.What matters is that we condemn the killing of those we dislike & disagree with (as Maguire does).
We blur that message if we insist on making those killed into saints or try to silence criticism

If you need a demonstration of how GMB often descends into Susanna Reid and Andrew Pierce supporting each other's crap while Kevin Maguire is trying to get a (truthful/factual) word in, this is it.
Susanna Reid is contemptible and should be fired. Pierce should be left to GB News.

Not his description of "invasion", not his prediction that the UK on brink of civil war, not plans to pay the Taliban or Iran to take back migrants, or indeed to rule out doing so themselves.
