Bored with this Starmer / Mandelson story.
Can everyone get back to policies like rejoining the EU, disengaging from the USA and what we are going to do about AI.
Many reasons for Starmer to go but let’s do it on something substantive like his complete lack of a planning for anything
Going to watch stock markets go down tomorrow , ready for rebound on Tuesday when Trump announces something positive.
Not sure how much more this market manipulation can carry on.
They are making $B’s. And at the expense of USA tax holders.
I work in a field associated with AI and I see where this is going
Huge job losses, potential collapse in income tax, no tech sovereignty, huge increase in wealth disparity
And yet I see no “worse case” scenario planning from gov, just a belief it will help GDP. It won’t.
We need a plan NOW
Announcement coming Sunday that will see markets fall on Monday.
Tuesday / Wednesday minor breakthrough, markets recover.
Same market manipulation now for 6 weeks.
They are getting richer, the world is getting poorer.
The UK is now firmly pro rejoin
Politicians need to get up to speed and reject the bots, Farage, and the far right. More Hungary, less USA
Your courts are going to be very busy for quite a few years once the wheels of justice get back on track
Leave means leave 😂
Only one reason why Brexiteers would want to deny the British a referendum on rejoining

I guess by making the corruption a “family” affair, it will mean the entire “family” can all be indicted once this all ends?
Trump will be / is too old to care. The family members, sycophants and mobsters won’t have Trump senior to protect them
And on queue a bit more market manipulation
Trump and his family will have made billions from this war.

By this time Wednesday we will have some conciliatory tones, a fall in oil and lots of money having been made for Trump and his family.
Seriously, 3 more years of this is impossible. Something will break
Trump will never walk out peacefully from the WH. To do so would be for him, his goons and entire family, to walk into prison.
It will never happen.
Either he dies in office or he is forcibly removed
He needs a medical intervention asap, not impeachment.
Bets on what he posts on Truth Social?
It was because of EU interference?
Will have to impose Tariffs on Hungary?
Will result in collapse of Hungarian civilisation?
All of the above?

Trumps weekly Sunday post to impact the markets.
Monday oil prices will shoot up and markets crash.
End of day, Trumps gang go into buy buy buy mode.
Monday evening / Tuesday, some made up good news.
Markets rebound. Trumps gang go into sell sell sell mode
Same every week, but for how long?
This site just spouts lies, half truths and anti eu propaganda under the umbrella of “intellectual rigour”
However it does its job well.
Rejoining is not inevitable. If we don’t make the case well, these misinformation machines will win out again.

🤔
What the USA gets if it leaves NATO
Loss of Strategic Bases
Intelligence Isolation
Erosion of Dollar Dominance
Vacuum for Rivals
Credability obliterated
Surge in taxes for defence
Loss of EU defence deals worth $B’s
Loss of Political Leverage
War Risk
Constitutional Crisis
Seems ok to me!
Can’t say this is a surprise. Probably had no intention of investing, but who wants Sam Altman’s money anyway?
How about we build our own infrastructure?

She is trying to spin a catastrophic defeat into some sort of win
Even the most hardcore MAGA won’t believe this
Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:
Well do something about it. Rather than posting what everyone knows and can see on social media, DO SOMETHING
Love the world
Tucker Carlson maybe the only far right extremist currently speaking sense and almost apologising for his part in the path to Armageddon.
Doubt those late platitudes will save him at the pearly gates, but at least someone has the balls to stand up to the megalomaniac
Hope you’re somewhere safe.
Too late
There are currently 2 certainties
- He is mentally unstable & unfit for office
- The USA is doing nothing about it
Everyone who voted for him is complicit in whatever now unfolds
Hold your heads in shame USA. Your country will unfortunately never be the same again
And it shouldn’t take Labour another day in office for it to do the obvious and back rejoining the EU with a referendum….
www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
It shouldn’t take opposition to a narcissistic war criminal for the UK to do the obvious, but then again every cloud sometimes has a very small silver …….

All of them.
His entire “cabinet” are complicit in war crimes.
The ICC needs to indict him first. Europe needs to acknowledge he and his goons will be arrested if they venture outside the USA , and his generals need to refuse illegal orders or they too should face the consequences
