Nothing on the BBC Radio news this morning. Nothing I could find on their website. This is an MP from the party whose lead in the opinion polls normally ensures them wall-to-wall coverage. She spouts racist nonsense for which even she feels obliged to apologise. What on earth are they playing at?

Brexit hit productivity and lowered the economy’s non-inflationary “speed limit,” Greene ( @economistmeg.bsky.social ) said. Undoing some of the damage by rebuilding EU relations would lift Britain’s growth potential, enabling more activity without triggering price rises.
