  1. Yes they are. And Trade Deals are not FTA’s There will be no FTA between the U.S. and UK while Trump is in office, his vandalism of the FDA alone negates any hope of US foods meeting UK standards. The man’s an idiot.
  2. There you are quoting me out of context. I’ll tell you what it is, a limited deal that can be withdrawn at the whim of Trump. What it is not is comprehensive, and it is not a Trade Agreement, which would require approval by Congress and could not be withdrawn at whim by Trump.
  3. It’s fantastic work by Starmer to salvage some positive gains from Trump’s attack on the UK economy without selling out UK farming and the NHS. Giving the man-child a few crumbs to offer his supporters, both foreign and domestic, while de-escalating Trump’s aggression against the UK economy. So yes, good work by Starmer, his pragmatism is exactly the right approach.
  4. 147 UN member States recognize Palestine as a sovereign State. Palestine exists now.
  5. can you name some of these other countries with which deals have been ‘sorted’?
  6. It’s a PR Trade Deal, the very fact that it’s so limited in scope is an indication of how weak Trump’s position is. He needs this very limited deal in order to claim some victory. All that damage for immeasurably above zero gain.
  7. Perhaps wait for the outcome of the ‘negotiations’.
  8. but but but whatabout… Jeremy Corbyn. Nah, let’s stick to darling of the rightwing Piers Morgan platforming a raging antisemite. Or does he get a pass on that?!
  9. That green eye of yours in on display again.
  10. It’s when that ‘thumb bumping’ occurs on a daily basis, often several times a day. A bit of tell I say.
  11. Yet one more baseless accusation. Is that you playing the race card Jonny?
  12. How about not platforming a raving antisemite and offering the same raving antisemite’s struggle with mental illness as entertainment?
  13. Brexiteers opinions on the matter seem to be a bit ‘scattered’. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/05/07/labours-india-trade-deal-is-a-flagrant-betrayal-of-the-real/
  14. No part of any deal is agreed until the whole deal is signed. But here’s something the Labour Government have not hand to India in this deal: “One of the reasons the UK India free trade deal has taken so long to reach is that India had made big demands about visas for Indian professionals and students to work and study abroad. The British government said this deal does not include any change in immigration policy, including towards Indian students studying in the UK.” https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c99p2mlyep5o.amp
  15. The guy’s toxic, if people ignored him he’d fade away. Same goes for Kanye West.
  16. Yet more baseless ‘two tier’ claims: Workers from multiple other nations who are assigned to work in the UK are exempt from paying U.K. National Insurance: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/new-employee-coming-to-work-from-abroad#:~:text=Employees from the EU%2C Iceland,they can apply for one.
  17. I occasionally check my profile, the list of profile visitors gives an indication of who might be stalking me. Your comment prompted me to do so again.. Oh and there you are, with a couple of my other regular visitors.
  18. That’s confirmed my question as to whether or not you are trolling.
  19. Easily fixed. Adopt the U.S. tax policy of taxing income on citizens regardless of location.
  20. Oh really. Which ‘identity and cards’ have I played in this thread? Or are you trolling again?!
