I mean why TF is Gove a Lord now? He spent Covid plotting with Cummings and grifting his sorry arse off, having already lied himself inside out over Brexit - another reason our country is in such a mess.

That 0.288 migrants a year. An arm and a leg.
Leaving the ECHR won’t fix illegal migration
There have been 29 cases involving deportations from the UK heard by the Strasbourg court since 1980 and the UK has won 16 of them. None of the 13 defeats has been in the past five years.

This will give JLR the cash reserves needed to continue to support its supply chains.
The government will guarantee the loan through the Export Development Guarantee (EDG) provided by the government's export credit agency UK Export Finance.
This is NOT the government giving £1.5bn to JLR.

Been a full on week for Labour. I’ve gathered just a few highlights. Most important in my view, is Mone. Being held accountable for her failed PPE supply. I hope we get our money back. Daylight robbery under Labour does not pay

Remember - the impact of the Tory’s hard Brexit was particularly bad for fishing because 1) the sector exported a lot to Europe 2) is highly sensitive to trade barriers (famously fish needs to get to its customer quickly…). Almost no sector was worse affected 👇
