Said to be about 10 times what Starmer claimed, despite some Treasury jiggery-pokery which uses a bizarre formula whereby future spending is given a lower value than present spending (the "Social. Time Preference Rate").

It's not unusual for the Labour playmakers to be poor at maths.

How can anybody possibly defend this “deal”? We’ve willingly signed away something we already had and are now paying through the nose to continue using it.

Uk taxpayers now face a tax rise to pay for people thousands of miles away to get a tax cut.

Who are this government actually working for?

Watching Starmer squirm,yet again, in front of a watching world press reminded me just how far the political classes in this country has fallen .
I accept that Reform and Farage aren't everyone's cup of tea but you'd be hard pressed to find any other party so inept , incompetent such as this shower of shite currently in charge.

Started but was then halted by Cameron. Our current "government of lawyers" risks costing us huge money if they stay in power long. I predict further "de-colonialization" policies, and perhaps even reparations, coming on to the agenda.

It's not about who started the negotiations, it's about the silly sods that agreed this awful deal.

"This govt has already secured several trade deals" if it's deals like one in one out, we're stuffed.

It's really quite an achievement to be as despised as the last Government was in 1/14 of the time, but as hard as the Starmer Govt tries, it'll never match the biggest, grossest lie ever forced upon the gullible UK population.

Many years ago there was a site on line called EU Truth.org . I used to go on there occasionally . I remember reading an article where the main founder of the site basically stated that the EU was trying to turn GB into a second class nation and a dumping ground for immigrants . An island where Europe's flotsam and jetsam could be jettisoned . Allied to this was the deliberate running down of Britain's industrial base the talking up of the EU and the denigrating of British nationalism and sense of heritage. All this was done purposely to relegate GB to a third rate island colony to be populated by ever increasing numbers of immigrants.
I took it all with a grain of salt but fast forward a decade or 2 and it is starting to make a lot more sense. People will say ....But we have left the EU . Brexit in its true sense has not been implemented and the wishes of the people have not been taken into account.
Labour and the Conservatives are opposite sides of the same coin . They both take their orders from the EU. Which has not gone away but is still pulling the strings of Starmer and co. The people are being fooled , Starmer has no intention of stopping the boats - it's all part of the plan and we the taxpayers are funding it whether we like it or not.
We need a general strike and mass mobilisation to show that the people are totally dissatisfied wit what is going on . Sept 13 there is a demo I believe not before time.

There was an article in the Mail today outlining what an illegal immigrant can claim and get. It was mind boggling all funded by the taxpayer. Includes free driving lessons mobile phone football tickets free martial arts lessons immediate access to food banks access to all health services .When housed in social housing all
their utility bills gas electric tv water council tax are free ! Not to mention legal aid
Its unsustainable and in my opinion designed to break Britons' morale and bankrupt the country so that they can bring in new laws / regulations to gain more powers over us . This is not a party political rage its more than that the future of our country is at stake and the sooner we wake up and realise the better. Everything in this country is upside down by design . The political parties DO NOT represent us . A day of reckoning is drawing nearer and we all have to stand up and be counted or we wont have a country left not as we know it anyway.

The first Vote to leave the EU was a no brainer for me in 2016 , stronger with Europe than without it , my X was stay in as my employers then traded with Europe freely .

Second vote in 2020 was farcical , just who is giving us the trurh .
Even the lovable scallywag Bojo sent coded messages and wordings , vote remain .

Looking back maybe that oaf did have a point but was scared to say it , vote loser for him .

Now The French will small boat all their rubbish over The Channel to us .

Starmer has now announced his latest nonsense , I will turn the figures around regarding the illegal immigrants , file along side I will smash the small boats scandal . utter rubbish .

Only people benefiting from this chaos we have is Reform and Farage .

The bits about driving lessons, martial arts, mobile phones and football tickets.

There are no direct government provisions for these. There may be isolated incidents where community groups and/or charities may provide these things, but publications like The Mail make it look like government schemes to stir up hate.

So they are not given free driving lessons, mobiles and football tickets and e bikes.

I think you'll find that quite a few Labour led councils do indeed offer this "incentives" and are not isolated incidents . IMO there's no need to try and make this lot look bad ,they're doing a splendid job themselves .
