I'm not interested in anyone else's spin on the numbers.
But you can have mine.
The simple fact is that since the 2007 credit crunch, only mediocre jobs with crap pay have been created in the UK. Fine to get everyone back to some sort of work. Not fine to have done so much better economically than the rest of the EU and also the lowest paid job workers having to put up with uncontrolled unskilled mass immigration competing only to keep wages down.
This is why we voted out of the EU. The masses finally woke up from their collective stupor.
So, if this Govt has any sense, it will not sign up to any deal with the EU over trade, which involves free movement.
Difficult to see who might blink first since the opposing positions are each claimed to be inviolable lines in the sand.

Sometimes you do the most decent things for the very best of motives, but you just get kicked for it or it doesn't pan out. Some things are, however, very predictable and as a politician with huge responsibilities you have to weigh morality and expediency. She does seem to be coming round to the Cameroonian approach of helping refugees locally to their country of origin.
Sometimes we in the liberal West are exploited and taken advantage of and even attacked. It comes with the territory of doing the decent thing. You have to learn fast, adapt and change to new realities.
