I'll stick to the topic of my post. Trump Hails 'Full and Comprehensive' Trade Deal with UK Amid Modest Economic Expectations

More good news but obviously need to wait for official announcements The White House is due to hold a news conference at 10:00 a.m. ET (3 p.m. London time) on Thursday in the Oval Office. U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday: “The agreement with the United Kingdom is a full and comprehensive one.” https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/08/uk-set-to-sign-a-trade-deal-with-us.html

Resorting to baiting now

Your still not getting this are you. "Hope this all comes off as intended" German carmaker Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE), is considering setting up production sites in the United States for its high-end Audi and Porsche (P911_p.DE), opens new tab brands to avert fallout from tariffs threatened by President Donald Trump, Handelsblatt reported on Wednesday. The newspaper, citing several people familiar with the deliberations, said the two luxury brands were seen as particularly exposed to any new U.S. trade barriers because, unlike the core VW brand, they currently do not produce in the U.S. https://archive.ph/JqwIs https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/volkswagen-considers-us-production-sites-audi-porsche-brands-handelsblatt-2025-01-29/

Yes your comparison, nothing to do with my post. Read it again

No, that's your comparison, not mine. It is a positive news article for the US as my first post stated.

Yea do so. Send me a PM and I may even reply. The off topic baiting is tedious and hijack the topic

Thought so

You've already made something of it. Repeated off topic insinuations

Your general observation and off topic insinuations are wrong so yes extremely afar

Really? So everybody always votes for the same party and never changes for varying reasons or stays center? But this topic is not about me. It is about some positive news for the US. Not something some are keen on

Wow a US topic with some positive news. It will be hijacked soon. Great news. Hope it all comes off as intended.

More off topic......😶

All links are correct links, enough of your off topic deflection

Yes it does stop lying and its two links not one............ who claimed the PA have not been consulted? https://www.thetimes.com/us/news-today/article/us-administration-in-gaza-israel-2vk2tnnpv https://archive.ph/JnQ1K (paywall free) US President Donald Trump says “there’s a lot of talk going on about Gaza right now, so you’ll be knowing probably in the next 24 hours.” Trump makes the comments to reporters in the Oval Office in response to a question he appears to have only partially heard about whether he’s planning on introducing a new hostage deal proposal before he heads to the region next week. The State Department said yesterday that there would likely be an announcement later this week pertaining the resumption of aid into Gaza. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/trump-theres-a-lot-of-talk-about-gaza-youll-know-more-in-the-next-24-hours/ Trump says possible news on Gaza ceasefire in '24 hours' https://abcnews.go.com/International/video/trump-news-gaza-ceasefire-24-hours-121571590

Good luck? If you had bothered to read the link the article is taken from Reuters........... "The discussions, which according to the Reuters news agency are at a preliminary stage, would involve the United States leading a transitional government until safety and security in the Palestinian territory had been established."

Making life more difficult for legal spouse visas, yea oh the irony....... Because its always been the most pressing issue on illegal immigration

Oh so its not destroyed yet then? I thought all the reports months ago were claiming the majority was already, must be a bit left? By the way, he's a far right finance minister and it was an opinion. I also note you missed out this: civilians moved to a "humanitarian zone" Regardless in your haste to condemn Israel again, I would wait for the official announcement coming soon. US ‘in talks’ with Israel over taking control of Gaza Discussions about American-led transitional government as President Trump prepares to visit several countries in Middle East https://www.thetimes.com/us/news-today/article/us-administration-in-gaza-israel-2vk2tnnpv https://archive.ph/JnQ1K

I wonder how Reform supporters who have foreign wives will feel? The same as Labour or Conservative supporters who have foreign wives I would think

No surprises what the target was then, thankfully this was a successful operation to stop this mass murder attempt by the head of the snake Irainians in the heart of London. Israeli embassy next to Kensington Palace in west London 'was target of Iranian terror plot that posed immediate risk to life' before anti-terror police 'foiled plans with just HOURS to spare' Counter terrorism officers swooped on Saturday as a gang of four Iranian men were allegedly planning an imminent attack, which could have resulted in widespread loss of life if successful. Security minister Dan Jarvis this week described the arrest of the four alleged plotters, and that of a second Iranian cell suspected of espionage activity, as 'some of the largest counter state threats and counter-terrorism actions we have seen in recent times.' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14688879/Israeli-embassy-London-Iranian-terror-plot.html

Highly edited video uploaded by an anti western and anti western media Indian uploader with an introduction by that uploader that you've copied and pasted word for word, that contains inflammatory false claims attributed to Hamish Falconer and NO. does not mark an extraordinary change in the UK governments position whatsoever. Its just an oral statement from the Hamish Falconer Minister of the Middle East disagreeing with the new plan announced by Israel on its war against Hamas. The vid even contains a snip of Hamas fan boy Jeremy Corbyn...... The UK's position remains the same as clearly stated by Hamish Falconer in his submission: "We want an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages, the urgent provision of humanitarian aid and a pathway to a political solution. Madam Deputy Speaker, All of us recognise that Hamas continues to hold hostages in the cruellest fashion. Their actions show the complete disregard for the interests of the Palestinian people. Hamas must not divert aid for their own financial gain or use civilian infrastructure for military purposes. We repeat our demand for the immediate release of the hostages. But an expansion of this conflict is not the route to achieve their safe return." https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/minister-for-the-middle-east-statement-on-gaza He disagrees with Israel's expansion plan into Gaza. The only problem being he does not offer solutions other than diplomacy which is impossible with Hamas and has not worked since Oct 7th 2023.

How can the UK which is not a member state make changes? "The European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) can be changed by agreement among all member states of the Council of Europe." You have it all wrong, the UK is agreeing to uphold ECHR and so if necessary UK laws have to be changed to accommodate it.

Yes, I know, that's why I supplied the link.lol From the same article: While Trump’s directive represents an expansion of his push to re-shore economic activity, his administration has not made any final decisions. White House spokesman Kush Desai confirmed on Monday, “The administration is exploring all options to deliver on the president’s directive concerning Hollywood.”

I thought they were implemented because of Jon Voight, father of Angelina Jolie

5 days ago, Starmers own Justice Secretary said "Don’t turn a blind eye to problems with ECHR" So what does he do? Turn a blind eye of course. "The Justice Secretary replied: “I don’t think it’s a responsible attitude of the Government, and certainly not a Government that supports the convention and Human Rights Act and our human rights related arrangements in this country, to simply adopt a position of there’s nothing to see here and look the other way." “I think there is enough in some of the cases. They’re not all, sadly, completely spurious. Some do not always stand up to scrutiny when you get into the full facts, and they do raise questions over whether the law is working as it should.” https://archive.ph/Ko87g https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2025/04/30/dont-turn-blind-eye-problems-echr-says-justice-secretary/
