With the tariffs repealed, the promised benefits of the proposed trade deal have vanished for Indonesia, while the costs remain: painful concessions to Big Tech, Big Pharma, and a colonial-style resource grab.

If there’s one thing that unites Western politicians, it’s the belief in their god-given right to subjugate the Middle East.
The barbarism Europe & the US have visited on that region, just in my life time. And always for ‘their own good’.
It’s abhorrent.
Hands Off Iran.
Britain must clearly oppose the US and Israel’s illegal aggression and refrain from any action which supports the attacks

This is not liberation. This is brutality, brought to you by those responsible for the genocide on Gaza.

“The Labour party is the only party that can unite our country”
Unless Starmer means Labour can unite the country in opposition to it, I have no idea why he thinks this is the right message this morning.

Yet again: We can beat the far right by offering a real alternative. Huge congrats to Hannah Spencer and the @greenparty.org.uk!
Starmer is the most disastrous leader in Labour’s history, and he’s Reform’s best asset. We deserve so much better.
Kazakhstan fines oil multinationals for ecological violations. So the corporations turn around and sue Kazakhstan in a corporate court for $4.6 billion.
This is actually how the world works. It’s shocking. Exit all ISDS.

Well he seems to have done a fine job at stopping the CMA being an effective regulator of monopolistic behaviour. So no wonder the government is keeping him.

Starmer appeasing Trump again, deepening his trade pact & building on his watering down of nuclear standards last September
Risking nuclear safety at the service of tech barons is a terrible idea. Working with Trump on a ‘nuclear golden age’ is just 🤯

Statement:
One honest statement in Trump's #SOTU address. He says he wants tariffs to replace income tax "taking a great financial burden off the people that I love.”
Indeed, they've helped pay for his massive tax giveway to Trump's superrich oligarch friends.

This guy has crafted some incredibly damaging trade and investment deals in the last 12 months, opening Britain to greater domination by Big Tech and Big Pharma. Those deals now must be reopened & rescinded.

‘Weakness is a provocation. Appeasement by America’s allies didn’t mollify Trump.’
I disagree with Chrystia Freeland on a fair bit trade wise. But there’s no denying this when it comes to Trump. Starmer’s approach is a dangerous failure.
