Brexit + + +

The mood in France isn't a generous one for the English nor the Trump victory. I say the English because the majority don't realise that it's a united kingdom and they think it was just the English responsible for Brexit.

I honestly think that the Trump victory is the best thing for the British after the vote.

Trump will not do all he said he would during his campaign he did what he needed to do to get elected. The Republican party owe him a debt but they won't let him close the borders to muslims neither will they make the Mexicans build a wall. Will he comprimise and employ another 4000 police to secure the border or deploy soldiers to do it? I think so.
He'll rebuild the infastructure in America to regenerate the inner cities with employment.

Let's be honest, has the mood in France ever been a generous one for the English, Brexit or not?

Very true. Just back and made welcome. Personally think that many would feel the same as us. Next years French election will be the yardstick as to how they feel about Europe and issues raised by Brexit and the Trump victory. Who was the first European politician to congratulate The Donald? It was Le Penn.

You're right Peri, I do mean politically they've changed. They already have changed the number of of european member states to 27 even though it's still 28.
I think but I'm not 100% sure that the armesdice speech has changed. It used to mention our help as in United Kingdom but now say European allies. They do mention the Canadians along side the Americans entering the WW1 in 1917 together. I'll get a copy of the speech that is given to all of the mayors to read out the next time I visit.

When the true cost of Brexit hits the farming population then the opinion of a lot more will evident.

I saw Farage ont television last night with a smug look on his face saying that he'd had meetings with some of Trumps aids. He said that the Americans aren't too happy with Theresa May and co. If Farage wants the best for the British he goes about it the wrong way.

Trump on the other hand looks like a rabbit in the head lights for me.

They weren't even that when we liberated them in WW2.

Remember, more French fought for the Axis powers than the allies.
