Hi Johnson, Gove, Farage and the rest of the lying Brexit brigade.
Time to crawl out of your sewers and tell us the truth!

Brexit: the trillion pound ‘mistake’

The recent NBER report suggests the Treasury’s 2016 analysis – slammed by Brexiters as a ‘hoax’– actually understated the impact of Brexit

US readout of today's pharmaceutical trade deal with the UK

UK readout

Almost no resemblance. Like two people describing an elephant, one focused on the tusks, the other on the tail.

You have ONE guess which side got the better of the other. 🤦‍♂️

So basically the US is telling us how much to pay for medicines.
So no change there then.
And no doubt the Big Orange will be out and about bragging about it.
To see how Labour stitched the UK up in today's pharmaceutical trade deal with the USA, you have to turn to the US readout of what they're getting in return.

It spells out what was as clear as mud in the UK government's own press release: we will pay more for medicines.

Why do they want us to leave the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR)?

Some moot leaving the ECHR as a pragmatic solution to an immigration “crisis”, but is there a more sinister motive behind the push?

Help the Green Party beat Reform in May. Donate as little as £1 to help them out. They dont take big donations from millionaires and billionaires like other parties do.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social has changed the narrative in a handful of months. And the media and the established political class are unable to look away. Every headline, every jibe, only points to the fact that they cannot look away. Phenomenal.

The can has been well and truly kicked down the road. @greenparty.org.uk and @zackpolanski.bsky.social in power would tax wealth and and at least attempt to fix it. Reform in power would give more tax cuts to their rich cronies, and make it much much worse. #VoteGreen
The tax rises in this Budget’s are backloaded.

They're largely kick in in what is likely to be a pre-election year, somewhat implausibly.

Yet another manifesto commitment watered down by Labour.

The climate crisis worsens every year, but the government continues to retreat.

Instead of action we see climbdowns, u-turns and backtracking. All while the world's biggest polluters celebrate and rake in the profit.

UKTBC Chair Andrew Lewin MP:

"The Brexit deal put up barriers with our closest and largest trading partners. We have 16,000 fewer businesses in the UK exporting to the EU."

"A surge in food prices, bureaucracy at the border and a hit to our economy of at least £100 billion."
