@Labour_Douglas The change Labour will bring is the endgame for Scottish sovereignty and your beautiful country. Do not allow these Imperialist hyenas to pick apart your regions, and your public services for corporate gains, you will regret voting Labour for generations. 18 Special Economic

@Elaineewald3 The fact that Labour fully back Sunak's 86 Special Economic Zones which deliberately contravene EU rules on State Aid, thus sabotaging rejoining the EU, totally destroys that narrative. https://t.co/zK9aLcjLSF

France and Germany offering ‘associate membership’ of the EU to the UK. Guess how Tories and Labour responded? ‘Labour and No 10 ruled out any form of associate membership of the EU’ Brexit is being forced to work by the duopoly👇🏻👀🤬 https://t.co/yvE9INhK68

@3rdeyeresumed Bidding on contracts for the zones were finalized in 2021/2022, they are licensed for a quarter of a century and tax-exempt for 10 years. The State Aid (public money) subsidies for each SEZ was £80 million, it has since been doubled to £160 million, that's nearly £12 billion.

A recent Govt REUL report stated that EU ports are publicly owned and are unsuitable for the UK economy. +600 pieces of UK/EU law were revoked on 31st Dec 2023, the 3 main areas were employment, food safety and environmental laws. https://t.co/GBfni2Cg0z

The State is not the enemy, limited Govt is. Corporate governance is anti-governance. Sunak's 12 Freeports and 74 SEZs are setting up small privately run states within the host country, beyond Big Govt's reach. Cons and Labour are forcing Brexit to work. https://t.co/9Keyd4JTv0

Freeports are privately owned, ports like the ones in the EU are publicly owned. All the articles circulating on Labour about them supporting ports DO NOT refer to them as Freeports, there's a massive difference, all lies. https://t.co/BzstmrECF0

Just Google Labour and 'ports'. BBC, Independent, Guardian, local news media all lying to the public. WTO rules on State Aid (that's public money) allow Govt's to give cash to companies they favour, distorting markets, illegal in the EU. Brexit + Zone fever = Game Over UK.

@blowhound Job displacement will leave already declining communities fall into further ruin, watch the MSM and the duopoly ignore this fact. The UK govt's website states job displacement was a major factor in the failure of Freeports and SEZs under Thatcher. The EU prevented govt's from

Freeports and SEZs will be maintained at astronomical costs to the public purse, your taxes will go up to provide WTO State Aid to subsidise corporations who will be tax-exempt for 10 years. Distortion of markets for profiteering as whole regions collapse. https://t.co/ZrvIyzjztT

Labour know that Hunt declared all SEZs tax-exempt for 10 years, they know that the Govt's REUL report repealed +600 UK/EU laws that protect SMEs, employment rights, food safety, and environmental laws on 31/12/2023. PPP will move in for the kill as scores of councils go bankrupt

UK's WTO rules allow the Govt to give preferential State Aid to companies the Govt favours, creating massive distortions in an unlevel playing field, this is illegal in the EU, this is why Starmer says no rejoin, no SM/CU/FOM. Below EU rules on State Aid👇🏻 https://t.co/BNymdxi3kl
