🔴It's Not 'Net Zero Madness' but Brexit Derangement That Is Driving Manufacturers Away From the UK

While the press blames the decline of British manufacturing on Net Zero, the real cause of Britain's economic woes is very different, argues @bearlypolitics.co.uk

Things aren't complicated, we have very rich people doing very bad things to make huge profits that they don't need.

And that is about 99.9% of the evil in the world.

“Why should their wombs go to waste?”

They don’t even see women as people. Just bodies to fuck and vessels to generate babies.

I remember during the Brexit referendum that leading Brexiteers *insisted* that they were not isolationists and little Englanders.

They *were* team players, but it was just the EU was wrong.

But then they wanted out of Single Market… then ECHR…

…and now UN and ICC too.

They are not team players.

Let’s all take a moment to congratulate Daniel ‘unelected bureaucrat’ Hannan for this masterclass in hypocrisy and abuse of power.
Someone sitting in the House of Lords (however dubiously) should *not* be signing this idiotic petition. But good to have his total lack of integrity confirmed. Again.

“there are people who could work, who aren’t. But I think they are in the minority.”

Why is the rhetoric framed to infer the opposite?

What does the 1m figure comprise? How many sick, carers, parents of young kids, gap years (not claiming)? How many of 1m are gaming the system?

Britain is knee deep in an information war. Young men radicalised at shocking rates, conspiracy trumping facts, swathes willingly participating in subterfuge that goes against their interests. The usual fake patriots at the helm. Our system, lacking checks and balances, exploited.

New data suggests that one third of the farm estates affected by the Budget changes aren’t owned by farmers – they’re held by investors for tax planning purposes.

Why did the UK Government agree to sell the ghost station to an oligarch already suspected of money laundering for the Russian underworld? Why did senior Conservative Party figures accept large donations from such a man? Why hasn’t there been a full official inquiry?

Wow. Imagine the shock for the Daily Mail when it finds out Tory plans were for fines of £5k - later reduced to £3k - for each missed heat pump sale. What Ed Miliband has done is to reduce that to £500. As @torstenbell.bsky.social says today Headline should read “Miliband slashes Tory boiler tax”

The Times journalist who fought to get the story about the Reform MP who kicked his girlfriend multiple times @georgegreenwood.bsky.social tells how hard the newspaper had to right to get the information released.

So who has been protecting the Reform MP?
As an addendum to this, it took four months to get this information, which would have been publicly available at the time of conviction.

The Times had to appoint counsel and attend a hearing at Westminster Magistrates Court to secure its release. That is not an expense all publishers can afford.

Just thinking about all those subsidised tractors driving passed people who don't own even that much and never will, complaining about having to pay HALF tax on anything over £3m which only 1.5% of people have.

These farmers are completely delusional, and very greedy.
