£240,000 per job to temporarily safeguard 500 jobs at a firm run by the UK's 7th richest person, an ardent Brexiter worth £17 billion.
Is it really worth it when firms that don't get a penny in government support collapse with greater job losses every few weeks?

The problem with not investigating brexit is that most of the ills the UK is facing come from it.
Not investigating also tells foreign powers planning this 'if you win, we will roll over'

Trump is coming after our BBC. He’s suing it for $10 billion, and the Conservatives and Reform are cheering him on.
The BBC must not pay Trump a penny. Instead of rolling over, it should sue Trump back for the lies he’s telling about it.

It's because too many MPs didn't bother to vote, on the grounds that it was "only" a 10-minute rule motion.
Today was a very easy opportunity for the Commons to hand Farage a resounding and humiliating defeat. They missed an open goal because 337 Labour MPs recorded no vote.
