Le Pen’s Ban Fuels Hard-Right Narrative of Persecution
Chomper Higgot replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Any examples of liberals/leftwing members of this forum sullenly objecting to any of these convictions while claiming the law is being used to suppress political opposition? -

It would be more accurate to observe the seething rightwing politics of grievance feeding off a rightwing politician being convicted for the crimes she committed. The rightwing support for law and order coming to an abrupt halt when one of their own is held accountable under the law. -
Trump Declares 'Liberation Day' as Sweeping Tariffs Take Effect
Chomper Higgot replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Yes it does, the US is dictating UK tax laws. It was widely reported over the last two weeks that the Starmer Government was negotiating with the U.S. for a reduced tariffs rate, offering tax breaks being part of the offer. Do you think Starmer and the Labour Government deserve any praise for negotiating a lower tariff rate? -

It’s always easy for a vassal state to hand tax breaks to its master in Washington. The tariffs won’t last, the tax breaks will remain. Doff your hat and tug your forelocks to Washington as U.S. businesses plunder the UK. -

The UK bought off some tariffs by giving a tax break to US tech and online businesses, including those that are viscerating the UK high street and small businesses. The UK now having its tax laws dictated by Washington is little more than a vassal state. -

The prices of fruit, veg and meats up on Saturday, eggs up higher. Who are Trump’s supporters, both foreign and domestic, going to blame I wonder? -

Exposing your inability to read and understand the OP would seem like the intent. -

“As for resettlement by the UN, does anyone think any country wants 3 million Afghans, or even one?” There is no suggestion of settling 3 million Afghans anywhere but back in Afghanistan. As for your ignorant ‘or, even one’. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Afghan_Americans -
