Isn’t Teesport one of the Freeports / Special Economic Zones that are supposed to be a Brexit benefit because they don’t have to abide by EU state aid law?
From what I understand these will essentially be corporate fiefdoms that offer little to taxpayers and residents. I have read that people’s homes could potentially be subjected to compulsory purchase under these fiefdoms.
What's happened at Teesworks could have happened whether it was a freeport or not.
That's to say there's nothing about it being a freeport that's enabled two businessmen to make the money that they have at the expense of the public sector.
As someone who has been investigating Teesworks full time for over two years, I think the freeport is a red herring. The story is about the transfer of public assets for free.
As I say, I've been investigating Teesside for two years, I've been in the High Court to report on what's been going on. I'm a professional expert on this story. He has me blocked on social media.
I have been looking for someone who can provide expert analysis on what he says. His projections are disturbing but do not have any traction. Why did he block you?

But by being a Freeport it will make their grift more profitable for them.

I have been following European Powell Substack. He is very concerned about the wider impact of Freeports:
