Extraordinary scenes at some UK ports - after P&O halted ferries to fire all crew and replace with a third party contractor… images circulating of what we are told are handcuff trained security with some wearing balaclavas taking British crew off, after they were fired on zoom…

Footage obtained by BBC South East shows the moment P&O Ferries staff were informed they had lost their jobs.

Am I the only one who gets an uncontrollable urge to scream my lungs out in anger every time I see Rees Mogg on the telly? (Or any other screen)

You have under 1 hour to vote in the @TheCriminalBar poll. At a stroke, the government is prepared to write off £4.3bn of Covid aid fraud, yet they are dragging their heels in even considering spending 3% of that figure, to keep the CJS from going off the rails.

Oh dear. These predictions haven't aged well. The total opposite is the reality which now plagues the nation. #BrexitDisaster #BrexitReality #BrexitShambles
Has your cost of living gone down in year 1 of Brexit? "The price of food will go down." - @Jacob_Rees_Mogg, 2016 “Our food bills will be lower. Our energy/fuel costs will be lower. Our tax bills will be lower.” - @DouglasCarswell & @DanielJHannan, 2016 Retweet to remind them.

Here’s your Aussie trade deal. 20 regression for animal rights and injected hormones. Previously banned practices suddenly part of our shopping experience. Disgraceful . #BrexitDisaster

MP who told footballer Marcus Rashford to stick to his day job and not challenge the govt on food poverty in fact has a second job of her own which pays £36,000 a year for 8 hours a week on top of her £81,932 MP’s salary bit.ly/3qsxUkV

It just beggars belief that this is the best the UK can put up for a Government. A cabinet full of millionaires and billionaires who’ve had the best education money can buy and *this* is their achievement. https://teapaw.org/t.co/iAUiCmFIB3 #Covid19UK #BorisHasFailedTheNation
