  • Summary

  • Freeports! They were going to be a huge Brexit benefit (they weren’t). Boris Johnson said we couldn’t have them while we were in the EU (he was lying). Labour was going to announce more in the latest Budget and then… didn’t (“cock up in the comms,” it says here). But what are they? Do tax-free zones really benefit deprived areas? Or are they havens for money-laundering and tax avoidance? Trade expert Dmitry Grozoubinski explains the long history and cloudy future of special economic zones to Andrew Harrison. • Order Dmitry’s Why Politicians Lie About Trade.
