Sadiq Khan @london.gov.uk is probably the most successful politician in the UK.
Elected 3 times, served each of his terms, and still popular.

A customs union is such a no brainer.
Trade deals have been negligible.
UK needs growth and it will cut red tape and give businesses the ability to trade with the EU (and get more inward investment)
Just like Turkey.

🚨BREAKING🚨
MPs have voted to PASS our bill to establish a UK-EU customs union.
The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.

Wants to bypass regulations by classifying bonuses as "retention payments".

It's revealing about taboos around racism that the visceral bullying racism of schoolboy Farage cuts through while the much more consequential thinly veiled racism of adult Farage doesn't. Many people need that veil and flinch when it's removed. You can advocate racist policies but not say the words
