At last, some balls.

If you think he's in a police cell using a metal plate, I've got a bridge to sell you.

UK shelves £110m frictionless post-Brexit trade border project Programme launched by last Tory government was worked on by Deloitte and IBM but was paused in 2024

Hopefully this means they have a better option, like the CU

fat chance 🤨

Trump threatens to 'turn off' Visa and Mastercard, totally screwing our and Europe's economies.
EU working on an alternative payment system as, I understand are we.
Wouldn't it be more sensible to be part of the EUs system !
Oops, I forgot, we are on the outside, on our own.

I refer you to this from 'Outside Views'.
He is correct in his hypothesis. We will NEVER rejoin as the UK basically because of the english.
Brexit has destroyed an already fragile union. Two independent nations and a united Ireland will join leaving england outside to way their little flags.

Two party none PR policies has also destroyed both countries.
It has run it's course and is in dire need of change. But not what ReformUK is offering.

Worth a watch.
Not a doom laden as the title would have you believe and I think he's probably correct in his conclusions.

Can anybody tell me why the obvious 'banana republic' style corruption, none policies and council implosioning isn't cutting it with the public 🤔
I just don't get it 😕

Locking brexit Britain out even more.
Don't know what Starmer can do about this other than going for CU or trying to negotiate a 'special' deal.
A disaster for British business either way.

Hypocritical twat.
Over 75% of his team are foreign nationals or second/third gen immigrants.

Bias as every other institution in Britain atm. That's why.

True enough point but on the law of averages, half of them voted Trump.
Think the booing was for Vance anyway.

Starmer's top aide Morgan McSweeney resigns Morgan McSweeney has resigned as Sir Keir Starmer's chief of staff amid the fall-out from the Peter Mandelson scandal.

Jumped or pushed, I don't care, he needed to go.

Mandelson. £55,000 payout for being sacked as US ambassador, Disappointing.
Farage. The potential to get more than a £Ms in EU pension pay outs if he lives long enough, Disgusting.
Both have a lot to answer for, with links to Epstein.
Only one is facing justice 🤨

I was watching on TV and heard nothing, so it seems boo's went missing.

No, we didn't.

It seems the BBC censored the winter Olympics opening ceremony by removing the booing from the audio feed.
I know from relatives that attended that Vance and/or the US team were roundly booed in the stadium.
BBC warping reality, again.

When did I miss this !
Im getting wind of a massive rise in road tax for some older, cheap, family run arounds like the Vauxhall Zaphira and Ford Granada's.
Up to an eye watering £760 a year, same as a Lambo.
Way to kick ya hard pressed working man in the spuds.

Complicity from all sides, that's why.
The centre/left are impotent here, the Democrats seem the same in the US. We are being steamrollered and I fear those that support Farage/Trump will have to learn the hard way. Farage looks nailed on and we, in our weakness, will suffer as well.

Farage, Farage, Farage, Farage, Farage.

😁

If what we are being told is the truth, that we operate to the highest standards in the argo/food sector, it shouldn't be a problem as we will be in lock step with EU standards already.
Or are we 🤔

This is the sort of thing the UK should be doing, but we can't because we've got feck all to take away, and if we had we wouldn't.
The 'special relationship' is very much a one way street in our direction.
'Take our expensive drugs, chlorinated chicken and hormone beef and goddam like it.
YES SIR.

Not hearing about it is also their fault. They know 90% of the media is against them so you'd think they would have a super active press/media department, but no.
In that environment they really have to blow their own trumpet, hard.

That's what REALLY sickens me. These opportunities don't come around often, not for labour at least.
EU, Water, Worker rights, taxes and a lot, lot more could have been sorted but no, either watered down or dropped.
That's why he needs to go. Too timid.
Labour could end up where the Tories are now.

Starmer. What can you say about him dismal rating 🫩
Elected on a raft of pledges, vertically none of which are likely to be enacted, mostly because of infighting and incompetence.
Labour had a massive maj and have utterly squandered the opportunity to do something really radical.
⬇️

Mistake. Big Mistake.
Burnham is popular with some within labour, Starmer is not 'doing it' for a lot of the public. Never mind Starmers assurance it's 'getting better'
With people like Trump in the world and us now alone after brexit he can be sure of nothing.
Give Burnham a go. What's to lose.

Andy Burnham. Some of the commentators I've been watching see his move as trouble for Labour, Starmer and Manchester.
No more trouble than I see Labour are in right now.
We need forward thinking leadership, something Starmer isn't supplying. Manchester is a problem as it could fall to ReformUK.

And where are we in all this ?
Britain not mentioned in this entire video because we have timid, stuck on the fence leadership and a population that a good portion of which are analy retentive, stuck in the 1800s, Trump fan boys.
I fear WE will drop the wrong side of that fence. More fool us.

'Bored' of Peace'
He most certainly is. $1 Billion to become a full member of a club solely controlled by Trump. He can retain the chair for ever, if he so wishes, and look at the list of willing signatories, wow 😬
I wonder where the money will go 🤔
