Big security risks. Angela Rayner & Labour should close these down NOW.
Ben Houchen not the best person to get into bed with, even a lot of Tories don't trust him!

I don’t get what hold someone has over this “Labour” government.

The recent revelations about Teesside, uncovered by @PrivateEyeNews , paint a grim picture of negligence, criminality, and a shocking lack of oversight that should have every citizen demanding answers.

Teesside's latest freeport scandal is NE Security Ltd, tasked with monitoring goods entering this deregulated zone, a role that demands rigorous scrutiny given the history of freeports worldwide being exploited for illicit activities like money laundering, drug trafficking, and smuggling.

Yet, NE Security Ltd is a cesspool of red flags. Its majority owner, David Garside Sr., is dodging a £1.5 million tax bill, having dissolved a previous company to evade creditors—a tactic straight out of the tax-dodger’s playbook.

Garside’s son, David Garside Jr., has been signing as the “managing director” of NE Security Ltd while serving a lengthy prison sentence for his role in a cocaine-running operation. This isn’t just a family business; it’s a family crime syndicate masquerading as a legitimate security operation.

Despite these glaring issues, @AngelaRayner , in her role at the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government, has delayed a critical audit of Teesside’s security arrangements. Her department’s justification? “No new threats have been identified.”

This claim is laughable when you consider the global track record of freeports. These deregulated zones, with their light-touch border procedures often managed by private companies like NE Security Ltd, are notorious hotspots for criminal activity.
