£1.6bn post-Brexit fund for deprived towns
 
Just in time
for her vote next week?

[PM May accused of 'bribing MPs'
with £1.6bn post-Brexit fund for deprived towns
Although the government claims it will
boost growth, others think it is
targeted at Labour MPs representing
Leave constituencies.]

[Under the new scheme,
the funding breakdown for
UK regions is as follows:
:: North West £281m
:: West Midlands £212m
:: Yorkshire and the Humber £197m
:: East Midlands £110m
:: North East £105m
:: South East £37m
:: South West £35m
:: East of England £25m
:: Another £600m will be available through
a bidding process to communities in
any part of the country]

A bribe to get labour MPs in leave constituencies to vote for the deal. So transparent. And the money is a drop in the ocean compared to the damage Brexit will do to the economy

Her deal is going through I feel

My opinion changes daily at the moment, but i do think that the tide is turning in May's favour, lets face it, it couldnt get any worse. Today, I would say that the deal will go through.

Governments have been doing this type of stuff since time began, so labour are only pissed because they are not in a position to do it themselves.

This is old news, so it looks like it has been brought up again to coincide with the vote next week.
:shrug: not Mz Soubry trying to cling on to 15 minutes of fame.

Yes it has been said a few months ago
it is to "Dig In" to try to win her vote

it's more of a warning to those MP's in those constituencies that if they don't vote the right way they can swing for their money :laugh:
