Just to be clear Mexico and Canada both sent firefighters to so Cal to help. They are good neighbors and they deserve our respect.

Independent front page Wednesday 22 January: Trump to hold UK over barrel on trade Insiders say new president 'holds all the cards' in negotiations as 'desperate' Britain will be forced to accept terms of any deal to kickstart slow growth - and can't fall back on China or EU DAVID MADDOX IN WASHINGTON DC Donald Trump's newly elected administration believes it has Sir Keir Starmer's government "over a barrel" on trade as Britain becomes increasingly reliant on a US deal, insiders have told The Independent. Senior sources within the US president's team claimed that the UK has no choice but to seek a trade agreement after the prime minister said that his government's success would be judged primarily on economic growth. With Britain's relations with the EU strained following Brexit, and only a modest investment deal secured on Rachel Reeves's recent trip to China, one Trump aide said it was time "to remind Starmer who holds all the cards in this relationship". Washington has long wanted the UK to lift its import ban on chlorinated chicken and hormone-treated beef, a move the former UK ambassador to the US Kim Darroch warned would destroy British farming.
Oh look. Yet another Brexit benefitβ¦
The thrill of being βheld over a barrel by Trumpβ who may let us sell out our farmers and stock our shelves with hormone-pumped πΊπΈ shite if we ask v nicely.
Because the option of properly fixing what we broke with the EU will piss off the Daily Mail.
Chefβs kiss.
Holy shit.
This is real.

Both the UK economy and the new Labour Government needs an urgent shot in the arm. Could this be the solution?

The president-electβs hostility towards other democracies is already clear. There will be no special relationship with him: we should look to Europe

If Trump wants to rename the Gulf of Mexico - perhaps a more appropriate name would be the Gulf between Decency?
Good to see Mexico and Canada helping their neighbours.

Far right honker, Nigel, furiously peddles stupid, prejudiced ideas that make you poorer. Then, when you are poorer, he tells you youβre right to feel angry about that. But not with him.
