200% tariff on EU booze to protect the US champagne business

Id imagine if Joe Biden had said that, a few posters on here would have something to say about it

You think he can't get any worse and yet he does. The worrying thing is we are only 2 months into his term and another near 4 years to go.

It might soon be cheaper to buy a Tesla than a bottle of Scotch Whisky.

You do realize that there is no tariff on Scotch Whisky. The tariff is for goods from the EU, .

That did make me chuckle- US Champagne- the level of idiocy that governs in the states seems to cross the full political spectrum

Unfortunately I have little hope this side of the pond either

He took his time but thats another Dandy on the planet. Hes a handsome wee boy who already hates Dundee Utd, so well chuffed

If you ever need your faith in humanity restored, the staff in the RAH in Paisley provide a wonderful service. We were there across three shift changes and every single one of them were amazing. Good humoured, knowledgeable, helpful and extremely professional under difficult circumstances.

Aww congrats all and welcome to young Master Oday ( I mean I’m assuming you’ve named him after the last Aberdeen goal scorer )

I was wondering where he was when you said he was due around time Spiders game. Took his good time.

Welcome to the dandy family (I’m assuming mum’s not getting a say )

Aye, Mason comments about the beauty of their greatest gift to the country, on the day they are cutting disability benefits.

To out tory the tories shouldn't be a political strategy.

Congratulations Mason to you and the missus

Taking your laddie to his first game is an emotional thing- best wishes to you

And 100 per cent on the hospital staff- some wonderful people
we should maybe all go outside at 8pm on a Thursday and give them all a clap- think it might catch on?

I hope Samaritans, Mind etc have lot of extra folk on their phone lines.

The cuts are barbaric eg someone requiring help over a broad range of activities but not meeting this new requirement of 4 points for any activity will no longer get daily living help. They could have 10 instances of 3 points but no individual 4 means zilch. That also means no additional disability premium or health benefit or whatever they are calling it now.

Under 22’s not entitled to this ‘health benefit’ at all. That’s unbelievable.

Worse than IDS this lot which I didn’t think possible.

Just as bad is the uncertainty for people. They haven’t even said how things will fully work. Just vague.
DWP can’t cope now, christ knows the mess they’ll be in when this comes to pass.

Still it’ll be jobs for all these people now magically fit for work…

Cunts. Cowardly cunts. Ashamed I’ve voted for these twats in the past.
And no doubt SNP will follow suit.

I've voted Labour once, back in 97. Never again.

Starmer is a massive c*nt, on a par with Blair, but at least Blair did some good whilst in office, especially at the outset.

Labour have been in power since last July and have still to announce one policy of any real note, that would improve peoples lives.

[Mason89]

Thanks for all your kind messages, we re fair chuffed with him.

Bank to the news and I cant believe the party that sold out Grangemouth, the Waspi women & kept the child cap, are also back peddling on austerity.

Read my lips. The Labour Party are c*nts

Just catching up so a belated congratulations Mason min, glad to hear all went well. You'll be getting lots of advice so all I will say is enjoy them when they are young, it seems like mine were born last week and now they are nearly thirty.
