If you think #freeports are a #Brexit 'dividend' & will help begin to rectify the regional unbalances in the UK economy, you'll be glad t learn that #JeremyHunt is planning to extend their associated #tax holiday by 5 years (now) to 2031.
If you think they are an engine of #taxavoidance benefitting only the global #corporations setting up in their confines, then you will see this as one more example of the #Tories indulging & privileging the interests of their chums.
take your pick!
