        #TheresaMay is jumping from the fire into the frying pan! In the absence of the European market, does #Brexit mean that the UK has to drop down her knickers & curry favour with Saudi Arabia, which is said to be the world's largest source of funds & promoter of Salafist jihadism?

        #Al-Yamamah is the name of the arms deal between the #UK & #Saudi Arabia, is it not @BBCNews? It's worth billions in an on-going deal, dating back to the Thatcher days. Correct me if I'm wrong..
