Remember Patel and others telling us how stopping EU free movement (including ours) would allow the UK to select only "the brightest and the best" ? Seems the "brightest and the best" ain't that bothered. Only 3 applicants in 2 yrs for the post-Brexit "Global Talent" scheme 🤡👇

You have to think that one of the many reasons the Tories are so utterly doomed is because Tory columnists have been reduced to wanting to starve more people so it’s fair on their other victims.
While 4.2million Brits live in food poverty those aboard the Bibby barge eat til their hearts content.. One in ten British children don’t even have breakfast while illegal migrants fill their bellies like a Cruise holiday buffet Eggs, cheese, meat, cereal, toast and jam -

Again I'm asked why not a problem with goods coming in from EU when a member but it is now. Sigh! Because then it was *our* shared policed (single) market standards territory & *our* shared customs (union) territory. Now EU is *external* territory & UK is not their legal concern
