Trump says Venezuela's Machado tells him he 'deserved' Nobel Peace Prize
YouTube video by The Manila Times Trump says Venezuela's Machado tells him he 'deserved' Nobel Peace Prize

Trump couldnโ€™t win the Nobel Peace Prize this year as he was 13 months too late to have his nomination presented. Itโ€™s good Job that Maria Corina Machado received it this year on Donald Trumpโ€™s behalf! #He Said#. Heโ€™s such a liar!

Murder is murder and should be condemned regardless.
Swift justice in Manchester but not at all in Gaza.
Genocide is happening now!
Protesting against murder and demanding the perpetrators are brought to justice is a very noble thing to do.

We canโ€™t rejoin the EU due to deals done by Gove and Hunt.
Freeportโ€™s and SEZs have been signed up for BkackRock and Blackstone to operate within the ZonesTax Free for 10 years and also are free from litigation for 25 years! If the govt attempted to rejoin the EU they would be sued for billions.

Farage wasnโ€™t slow at attending AFD rallies. Heโ€™s nothing but a jumped up fascist with the gift of the gab. Heโ€™ll be staging something like Trump did to gain popularity and sympathy in the near future, as he apes Trump. Watch his ears!

Britons ripped off by the energy industry. No govt curbs profiteering.

Nationalise energy, reduce inflation, poverty, business costs, rebuild economy.

A message to the Labour Party.
If you fix the UKs cost of living crisis, Farage and his fascists will become totally irrelevant.
Get to it now!

If the government wants economic growth it must bring essential industries into public ownership Successive governments clobber households and small businesses by hiking interest rates to manage inflation, but donโ€™t inconvenience corporations.

UK subsidises energy prices in other countries.

Investors, state entities from Canada, France, Germany, Spain, Israel, Italy, Korea, Norway, UAE & the US own most of UK energy sector.

ยฃ514bn operating profit since 2020.

Profits/Dividends go abroad.

Britons pay the price of privatisation dogma.

Energy price cap warning as latest rise takes effect The energy price cap remains vulnerable to gas price shocks and rising costs including green energy investment but households are being told they can still shield themselves from fluctuations ahead.

Average annual household energy bill hits ยฃ1,755.

ยฃ4.43bn energy debt, people can't afford it.

Since 2020 big energy companies made ยฃ514bn operating profit.

128000 a year die in fuel poverty

Profiteering fuels inflation, poverty.

Can't rebuild economy without ending profiteering.

ยฃ shop Trump Farage will be playing the victim here as the truth hurts him. Farage has always been a stranger to the truth.
National Front, BNP, Brexit Party and now reform are all founded on division and racism. IMO Farage is a loose canon in politics and would cause even more damage to the UK.

The answer to all your questions is.

Trump governed by whims, not policies.

China stood up to him & he backed-off. EU/UK need to do the same.

The emerging multipolar world must be based on respect and dignity, not bullying and new imperialism

Since privatisation England's water companies paid ยฃ88.4bn in dividends.

90% of water companies owned by foreign investors/govts.

90% of dividend not recirculated in the UK economy. No UK tax paid on dividends.

Public ownership would make a difference.

Immigration is just an excuse for them to be racist.

They don't care that 84% of sex offenders are white.
They don't care that immigrants are no more dangerous than anyone else.
They don't care about 'protecting women' or lowering crime.

They just care about being racist.

Farage the Trump parrot A writerโ€™s response to Nigel Farageโ€™s aping of Trumpโ€™s policies

"Farage has no ideas of his own, he just steals from his idol Trump. He wants to be Britainโ€™s own mini-Trump.

He wants us to copy the failed Trump strategies which are driving the US economy into deep recession."
