When Tories say 'Freeport', people imagine the dockside area. Wrong.
The zones are 75km wide.
They cover schools, hospitals, towns, National Parks & lots of housing.
#Freeports are destined to become #CharterCities & to be controlled for profit by a Tory crony.
You have no say

Good question. The answer is, a few Labour MPs seem to have seen the greedy & succumbed...
In addition, Tories have sabotaged the contracts to make them so expensive to cancel that if Labour tried, it'd bankrupt the country & it still wouldn't stop these Tory atrocities.
Like an infestation of knotweed, these contracts can't be removed without vast expense & huge effort...
& as soon as Tories are reelected, they'll extend the contracts & we'll all be back where we are now.

You got it in one.
The links between those complicit in the #Freeports/ #CharterCities con are subtle. Here are the clues:
Tory media is owned by right-wing billionaires.
Tories are in hock to right-wing billionaires.
Contracts will be awarded to right-wing billionaires.
Taxes aren't paid by right-wing billionaires.
There's been a huge increase in the number of right-wing billionaires.
Tory politics is awash with lobbiests for right-wing billionaires.

Here, here.
Alternatively, a billionaire with a conscience (pretty rare, I know) who can withstand right-wing attempts to bankrupt/destroy them.
Failing that, a population who stops swallowing Tory lies & tells them to f*** o** & never return.
Or... maybe a law that is actually applied to the wealthy to prosecute them for 14 years of accumulated corruption, negligence & deaths.
I'm sure millions of us would contribute to build a prison to hold them.
