Social media this morning is a zombie apocalypse of dinosaur Tory politicians and right wing hangers-on hankering after the nasty Brexit wars of the last decade. Our country has moved on!
Non EU visitors. Non EU. We see you.
I can guarantee if this government announced a young person freedom of movement deal, our business would crack on with growing their business, care owners would resupply staff, restaurants will be able to open 7 days a week, the Eurostar would be hopping. It is a no brainer.

1/3 This scandal with so-called 'organic' salmon is just the tip of the iceberg. Not only are consumers being duped into paying premium prices for farmed salmon doused in toxic chemicals, but the entire practice of fish farming is an environmental disaster.

The Media won't acknowledge this video of the farmers blocking an ambulance with its blue lights on so could you could RT it so people see it?

God the labour party is such a flipping joke. Tory lite.
Business Live, "Rachel Reeves is expected to say she wants a business-like relationship with the European Union"

"Despite the governments push to rebuild closer ties with Europe, ministers have ruled out returning to the EU Single Market, the Customs Union, or allowing the free movement of people"
