"Britain has become the most attractive hunting ground for global companies to make acquisitions for the first time in at least a decade...It has risen to be the foremost destination in the world for future acquisitions, displacing the US from the top spot"https://t.co/Moa9hDSm9r — PolitiTweet.org

“I have always believed in the nation state as the polity best equipped to govern a population, to provide a focus for...loyalty and, if governed by the rule of law and powerful representative institutions, to adapt to the demands of a changing world.” https://t.co/QVVCpbgTmF — PolitiTweet.org

“On each attempt to keep the country under the EU by the back door...voters were already ahead of the curve...It is...a chapter in an older struggle about the authority on which this country is ruled: that of the governing faction...or the people?” https://t.co/yuHBAGqFQ1 — PolitiTweet.org

“I like to think that there aren’t any civilized people willing to tolerate the Nazi ideology...The same can’t be said about communism...How high does the death toll need to get before people realize that communism, like...Nazism, is despicably evil?” https://t.co/OySVJMwhRY — PolitiTweet.org

“British wholesale gas prices rose...on expectations Britain will stay in the EU’s Emissions Trading System for longer if its departure from the EU is further delayed....In a no deal scenario...prices could fall more than 20%” https://t.co/rpiLK5y3Oz — PolitiTweet.org

“For the Prime Minister to agree...an extension in these circumstances is to knowingly use her power in a way that she herself believes would risk frustrating Parliament’s intention that the UK must leave the EU. This is legally beyond the pale.” https://t.co/nJIbgJl0MQ — PolitiTweet.org

“Instead of confronting the EU, prepared to leave by rejecting its deal, the PM has instead taken a dangerous decision...a longer extension...The EU demands that we fight next month’s Euro elections. This will be an utter disaster” https://t.co/aZxi6xKtEz — PolitiTweet.org

My piece for the @Telegraph. Rather than cancelling preparations for an imminent “no deal” departure, the Government should be accelerating them. Then it can cancel the European elections, save £100 million and take us out of the EU on 1st June. https://t.co/RplmW7xgxJ — PolitiTweet.org

“With most policy mitigations & potential Brexit upsides also assumed away, we are left with a skewed and in places somewhat shoddy analysis. The IMF...analysis comes from the same stable of politically convenient analyses & is best filed under ‘ignore’.” https://t.co/WRL5faWVWp — PolitiTweet.org

Animal & animal product movements guaranteed in the event of "no deal". "Disruption for those businesses which import live animals, germinal products and certain animal products will also be minimised as they will now continue to have access to the TRACES" https://t.co/4wIIDWyTqV — PolitiTweet.org

Good to visit HMP/YOI Stoke Heath following the encouraging report by @HMIPrisonsnews, building on improving reports in recent years. I look forward to discussing opportunities to develop vocational training to reduce re-offending rates further with @RoryStewartUK @MoJGovUK. — PolitiTweet.org

"The UK Government has allowed organs of the EU, in particular the Council, to become the centre of gravity in Brexit. This is a fundamental mistake. It suggests that EU law governs the withdrawal of a Member State. It does not." https://t.co/nRoePhh6Uy — PolitiTweet.org

“The problem isn’t just the delay but the utter humiliation of being forced to fight European elections...that will cost us £100m. When our schools want more money to be invested in them, we will instead fritter it away on this charade.” https://t.co/gnOoEghw0o — PolitiTweet.org

My @BrexitCentral piece on why a WTO Deal with pragmatic side deals must now be the way ahead. It would be outrageous to spend £100m on pointless, unwanted European elections. Avoid them, and we save the money for our own priorities and Leave on 1st June. https://t.co/G05VZJV4jd — PolitiTweet.org

From @EUCouncil: “If it has not ratified the WA by 22 May...it must hold the elections to the European Parliament...If the UK fails to live up to this obligation, the withdrawal will take place on 1 June” We save £100m on pointless elections and Leave! https://t.co/pcSVQxLckt — PolitiTweet.org
