We will not get a good trade deal with Trump's America First strategy
Borrowing has doubled, inflation/cost of living up but, still, we have lower unemployment (zero hours contracts abound & more people in work are on benefits) - still, we can afford to bribe the nutty DUP & give tax breaks to our rich pals from the magic money tree! When we fall over the cliff edge, we can blame the "enemy" (as described by Hammond) & wave our union jacks & sing God a Save the Queen on the way to the ever-popular food banks! We live in dangerous times & are self-harming - I know some of you disagree (as is your right) but I honestly believe it is madness!
