What about the movement of people? Ireland allows free movement within the EU, but without an actual border, then how would the UK restrict access? It seems like a core concern.

I have no connection to Bercow that I'm aware of, but I love the idea of you guys sending him some of your merch xD Please update us if that happens!!
ETA: As one of the demoralized NHS staff, more hospitals would be amazing, but we need more funding into all the existing hospitals and services too. I'm a therapist, and as MH becomes less stigmatised and awareness rises, we have more and more patients (great!) but fewer and fewer staff to meet the demand. I'm sure physical health is no better off.

Labour or Tory, doesn't matter. When you raise the minimum wage, the price of goods will go up aswell. Perhaps not even straight away but it will. This is meaningless swagger. The Net Zero package is woefully lacking in ambition. The only thing that will keep the Tories in power is the promise to deal with brexit once and for all. Afterwards, who knows. I don't think we will be seeing the same parties again. The last 3 years have fundamentally changed the way British politicians operate and the way they are perceived by the public. Strange times ahead.

"Conservative plan to increase spending for roads, internet, and the NHS"
If there's nothing else I've learned in the last decade of following US and UK politics, it's that you should never ever believe or even afford the slightest benefit of the doubt when a conservative makes a "promise" to increase spending. They have a damn near 100% track record of lying about it.
They'll only actually increase spending if they or one of their friends owns a company that will be directly benefiting from privatizing whatever they're talking about.

Johnson has actually suffered 8 defeats in the HOC, I believe. Some people, like Sky's Boulton, claim he won a majority in the early election vote. This is nonsense; he failed to get the 2/3 required. He LOST, ffs!
@seeingeye8368
January 24, 2024 at 9:39 am
Instead of companies being forced to pay the 'living wage', which I can appreciate could be an issue for smaller firms, would it not be better for the government to pay a top up to everyone by stopping companies using tax havens and getting the tax money back into the economy.

What do these nice projects have to do with Brexit? All these things could have been there for 5 years. It won't be any easier to reshape the country if there is a significant decline in economic activity due to the Brexit. None of the actions are subject to EU approval and are normal government activity.

It is rare that these videos mention something I feel like I can comment on with actual understanding. Building a fusion reactor to go green is the most foolish comment I've heard. The UK already has the JET reactor, yet the most likely next step in the development of commercial fusion is upcoming ITER and the DEMO project that it'll hopefully foster. The UK has technically been apart of ITER since the whole of the EU is, but now they are leaving, they'd have to rejoin while paying the same amount the US and China contributes. Or they could try on their own, which is even more expensive.

If you don't know the problems in containing nuclear fusion you can promise it to a gullible public.
