It cost £154mn to convert a field in Sevington into a giant, fenced slab of concrete… - to act as a border inspection lorry park for purposes of a just-in-case Brexit scenario. It now looks likely to be sold. But for how much? Thanks for the eye-watering waste, Brexit.

The idea that carrying a meme on your phone could factor into your treatment at the border is a sign of how authoritarian things have gotten, here. And the fact that the image is not a threat, makes it all the more chilling. People used to joke that autocracies fear humor and now it’s true.👇

This is insane by Yvette Cooper. Spray-painting planes is not terrorism. Criminal damage, yes - but you cannot “terrorise” inanimate objects. It does not serve to cause terror in victims. Therefore it is not terrorism. The authoritarian Home Secretary has lost the plot.
