Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

[The Bedlington Terrier]

For the leader of a British political party, and quite possibly the next PM, to have an amicable relationship with the President of the most powerful economic and military nation on the planet, is a very good thing indeed.

I would have thought that was just stating the bleedin obvious, but not it seems for Leftys. Trump Derangement Syndrome, it's one hell of a powerful tool. I believe Big Pharma are trialling vaccines but without much success.

Farage will never be the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Never. We have all add our fill of charlatans.

Doesn't really matter mon ami, by the time Farage gets to be PM, if he ever does, this country will have the status of a Banana Republic, a bankrupt laughing-stock on the world stage. There'll be nowt left worth salvaging.

ICE would have your guts for garters at the Border mon ami. Trump is turning the US into becoming the most reviled nation on earth. He's a crazed dictator embarking on a massive political power play. It will go tits up. It always does.

I worked in a USA army camp for a year, in Germany ?? Many moons ago. Nothing interests me about the States. Go east young man go east. !

No wonder Balan.

"President Trump on Monday issued a new ultimatum to China to rescind its retaliatory tariffs on the United States, or face additional tariffs of 50 percent beginning Wednesday. The threat came as Wall Street swung wildly, with the S&P 500 briefly entering bear market territory.

President Trump’s trade war made investors increasingly pessimistic about the economy but he defended his global tariffs, saying those in place had already brought the United States billions of dollars in revenue. He also said that he would cease negotiations with China unless it withdrew its tariff plans."

I have no idea how this can be calculated but it is being reported that the Sun Bed King has just cost the US economy 5 TRILLION dollars.

There's a hilarious Facebook page which shows the reaction of the people who actually voted for Trump. Their welfare benefits are cut, two blue collar workers have just lost their jobs and each Yank interviewed gave Perma Tan the middle finger.

Their system of checks and balances seems to require some overhaul methinks.

Shocking isn't it, stock markets are falling, which makes no difference whatsoever to the average man and woman in the street. The rich might be suffering paper losses, but I don't give a FF for them, do you ? The stock market has fallen before, numerous times, it will recover, it always does, in the meantime a Bear Market usually lasts around 9/10 months, so this might have some time to run yet, who knows. You have heard of a Bear Market haven't you mon ami, you might even have experienced one, in which case you'll know there's no point panicking and running around shrieking hysterically, like the Dems and Globalists are now.

In the meantime, in the good old US of A, gas prices are falling, interest rates are falling, food prices are falling and the great money laundering scam which is USAID is gradually being wound down. God Bless America.

Reality kicks in...

Trump Tariffs 'Shattering Confidence' in the US.
Alan Blinder, Princeton University economics and public affairs professor, says stagflation is the default outlook for the US right now and the Trump administration's tariffs are "shattering confidence in the American economy". The Sun Bed King is an eejit.

The two Labour MP's who were detained and arrested at the border of Israel reminds me of a quote I recall from a Jewish Holocaust survivor, "No country is immune to the forces of fascism - not even Israel." Unsurprisingly, Kemi Dimwit Badenoch backed the Israelis.
