    All these workers rights issues were laid on the line prior to brexit. Another thing the right wing press chose to ignore. Concentrating on promoting feckwits bullsh1t.
    lots of the working class fell for it. There'll Be lots of workers waking up and smelling the coffee right now.

    And today the US removed tariffs on steel which were imposed by Trump. Not for the UK, just the EU because they're a bigger trading bloc and we're threatening to damage the Good Friday agreement. I wish those pesky yanks had read the mail or the express so they'd know what a powerful entity they were messing with!!

    I was wondering that, but I think it's probably the Express positioning themselves for an attack on Johnson. They won't be blaming Brexit of course, but Johnson's oven-ready deal.

    Either that or they have an intelligent journalist who managed to sneak it past the editor whilst he was trying to think of ways not report on the Downing Street parties...

    Or they want to make sure Liz Truss doesnt get the job of the big cheese - Pointing at her failure to grasp the many trade opportunities of Brexit? Maybe they want Sunak or Javid ( surely not as neither are white )

    Yes, probably a combination of blame for the oven-ready deal and a shot at Truss.

    When she was recently in front of a Parliamentary committee, she seemed not to know that Chanel 4 wasn't a state funded media company...

    Raaaaaaaaaab!

    If he ever became leader every day would be like an episode of Fawlty Towers.

    EDIT: Actually, it might not be much different to now.
