I have come to have little faith in any political party setting new standards in public morality. Did anyone really think Free Gear Kier and his team were going to be any different when they rode into town? I don’t expect Farage and friends will be paragons of virtue but we need something to shake up Westminster. You have to vote for change. Two-tier got that right.
We are out of Europe now though some if not most days you would not know it and there are plenty still clamouring for us to clamber unceremoniously back into a European state that seemingly wants to ignore the harsh lessons of its failed expansionist policies. The world economic order has been thrown into chaos. Free trade is going out of the window as Trump imposes protectionism on the international stage. Selling off our assets has in the UK has left us with a legacy of critical industries and utilities in the hands of owners many foreign with a record of putting profits ,director bonuses and shareholder dividends ahead of performance and service. It is a mess. No doubt of that and it has put us at a crossroads where maybe we can still choose which direction we go in.
People like me are "critics" mon ami, you know the ones, the Looney Left" as you call us.Quote:

No more British steel for the US, no more Range Rovers and BMW's for the Yanks. No more overseas tourists for the US holiday industry and government warnings from across the globe that "It may not be a good idea to visit the US right now". God Bless America. XD
Extremely well reasoned Sir Outwood and for once I am not going to argue with you. ;DQuote:

My dad who had some brilliant one-liners used to say, "Don't $hit on your own doorstep". Perma Tan please take note...
"Airline travel between Canada and the US is “collapsing” amid Donald Trump’s tariff war, with flight bookings between the two countries down by over 70%, newly released data suggests."
The global fightback to the Sun Bed King continues, can our comedy act Starmer & Reeves stop licking Perma Tan's arse please?
Canada’s prime minister has said the era of deep ties with the US “is over”, as governments from Tokyo to Berlin to Paris sharply criticised Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs on car imports, with some threatening retaliatory action.
Mark Carney warned Canadians that Trump had permanently altered relations and that, regardless of any future trade deals, there would be “no turning back”.
He told reporters: “The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation is over.”
The ordinary football fan in the modern money grabbing game shares much the same feeling of powerlessness that the majority of citizens do in our dystopian society. Irrelevant. Like Piffy on a rock bun.
Apart from the above Sir Outwood, what problems do you think this country faces ?Quote:
