Default £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.]


https://news.sky.com/story/theresa-m...-fund-11654666



[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

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.
not Mz Soubry trying to cling on to 15 minutes of fame.

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
