🇬🇧 Britain will only stop the decline and bring borrowing costs down when it stops looking like a high-risk experiment. 🇬🇧 That means starting to look like a stable European economy again. Rejoining the EU isn’t ideology, it’s credibility. And Britain should stop helping Trump and Putin weaken the European continent we actually live on.

Happy 5th Christmas in Brexitland 🎄 🧑‍🎄 Here’s👇 the financial market verdict on Brexit Britain 🇬🇧 🎄 UK 10-year borrowing costs are now consistently higher than: 🇩🇪 Germany 🇫🇷 France 🇨🇦 Canada 🇯🇵 Japan 🇮🇹 And often worse than Italy 🚩For a country that issues debt in its own currency and used to be seen as ultra-safe shows markets are pricing in risk: 🇬🇧 is less stable 🇬🇧 has weaker growth prospects 🇬🇧 has poorer policy credibility 🇬🇧 is more exposed to shocks 👉Why Brexit is to blame: The divergence starts after 2016 and hardens after 2020: Loss of frictionless trade. Smaller tax base. Lower productivity. Chronic current account weakness. Reliance on footloose capital instead of embedded EU investment Brexit didn’t free the UK, it reclassified it and this matters 🆙 Higher borrowing costs mean: ⬇️ Less money for public services ⬇️ Less room for investment 🔥 More pressure for austerity-by-stealth 🔥 More raids on assets that can’t move (farms, pensions, family businesses) This is the hidden link between: Brexit. Farm taxes. Welfare cuts. Public sector squeeze When borrowing is expensive, govt stop investing and start extracting. Brexit didn’t restore sovereignty, it merely raised our mortgage rate. And every policy we are fighting - farming, welfare, local government collapse - flows from this chart 👇

It's always the same old tired arguments from those in support of trail hunting . The truth is it was always a smokescreen for illegal fox hunting to continue – they even admitted it themselves . A ban can't come quick enough !

"it's a symptom of a deep and abiding dysfunction that Republicans, despite holding the presidency, the Senate and the House, can't fund the government and can't even get themselves to get together in a room to strike a deal."

‘Tasmania’s $1 billion stadium doesn’t stack up. Or does it?’ "Australian governments love to spruik major infrastructure projects, particularly sports stadiums." “The AFL will only commit $15M for the stadium’s construction — 1.3% of its overall cost.” einnews.com/article/857742…

Richard Burgon MP@RichardBurgon·
Nigel Farage has raked in over £1 MILLION from outside “work” since the General Election. That’s way more than any other MP - and twice as much as the next highest, the super-rich Rishi Sunak. So much for being a man of the people. As I’ve long said: ban ALL MPs’ second jobs.

Nigel Farage wants to end sick pay, he wants to destroy the unions, he wants to get rid of the State Pension, he wants US style Healthcare. The only person he will benefit is billionaires.

BREAKING: New polling reveals Donald Trump’s approval rating on handling inflation has plummeted in what CNN’s data chief Harry Enten calls an “abject disaster for the president”: “Into the gutter we go, underwater we go; he’s 25 points underwater my goodness gracious.”
