Teessideβs freeport, initiated in 2021 under Rishi Sunak, has cost Β£560 million far exceeding the standard Β£25 million allocation (22 times the standard Β£25m).
90% profits go to the private sector.
This clearly shows the UK model of State aid post-Brexit is utterly corrupt.

Nigel Farage accuses teachers of
'poisoning our kids' on race issues
Exclusive: Reform UK leader's remarks at event for private US college criticised as 'grossly irresponsible' by NEU leader
Oh look - Farage.
In the US - again. This time slagging off UK teachers. Next thing you know heβll be there having a go at our vicars, doctors and nurses.
This man seriously, seriously dislikes Britain, doesnβt he?
