“Our negotiated deal with the United Kingdom is working out well for all,” Trump wrote, referring to the recently finalized trade agreement between the two countries. “I strongly recommend to them, however, that in order to get their energy costs down, they stop with the costly and unsightly windmills, and incentivize modernized drilling in the North Sea, where large amounts of oil lay waiting to be taken.” Nice deal you have here, it would be a shame if you didn’t do something I want you to do that causes me to reconsider our nice deal.

I’m sure you’d be at the front of the queue to volunteer, but do take care with the needle, we wouldn’t want you accidentally nuetering yourself.

It’s also wrecking the thriving economy Trump inherited from Biden. Though good for those engaged in insider trading.

You complain about VAT while calling for tariffs. Have thought that through… at all?

Trump doing his best to encourage patriotic Brits to back their own government against interference from foreign despot.

The genocide of white South African farmers myth exposed as the lie it is “South African police recorded 26,232 murders nationwide in 2024, of which 44 were linked to farming communities. Of those, eight of the victims were farmers.” So 8 South African farmers murdered in 2024 equating to 0.03% of all murders in that year. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-makes-false-claims-white-genocide-south-africa-during-ramaphosa-meeting-2025-05-21/

It would be so much better if it were owned by a billionaire, perhaps a foreign billionaire? The BBC is hated by some on the right precisely because it broadcasts news and documentaries that expose stuff they would rather were replaced by ‘celebrity gossip’ or ‘fluff pieces’ for the rich and famous. A national media not controlled by the Murdochs and Musks of this world is a very good thing.

Who said it was limited to only the numbers under the Erasmus Scheme?

How did that work out?

Reading the text accompanying the picture informs that it is indeed ‘painting a picture’.

There you go again with your reference to an estimate that was based upon completely different energy prices. But answer your question, if you make the assertion of deaths as a result of the means testing of the winter fuels payments it’s for you to produce the evidence. Interestingly senior Tory with ambitions for leadership Robert Jenrick was asked multiple times on Sky TV if a future Tory Government would abolish the means testing of the winter fuel allowance. He slid around like a wet bar of soap trying to avoid giving an answer. https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/amp/entry/wilfred-frost-challenges-robert-jenrick-on-winter-fuel-plan_uk_682ed91ae4b0ef574bf5831c/

I’m still waiting for anyone to produce evidence of the means testing of winter fuels allowance resulting in any old age pensioner dying of cold. 40,800 deaths in the winter of 2014/15 compared to 4,950 in the winter following g the introduction of means testing of the winter fuels allowance a reduction in excess mortality of 87.8%. https://www.ageuk.org.uk/siteassets/documents/reports-and-publications/reports-and-briefings/health--wellbeing/age_uk_excess_winter_deaths_briefing_june_2016.pdf https://www.endfuelpoverty.org.uk/4950-excess-winter-deaths-caused-by-cold-homes-last-winter/

Well that and your ever present problem with intelligent, articulate and assertive women.

Reversing the barriers to young Brits being able to study and work abroad is a positive move retiring opportunities stripped away by the vandalism that was Brexit. I’ve removed the photo you posted from my response, and I’ll not answer your relayed question, nothing personal, it’s just I don’t give dating advice.

There was no complaints on that matter when a Federal judge was frequently called upon to overturn Biden’s executive orders.

Trump running other people’s businesses by edict. He’s going for the full blown command economy stuff. It’ll not be long before he’ll be telling kids how many dolls and pencils they are allowed to have.

I tend to read around the subject: https://sciencebusiness.net/erasmus/uk-edges-towards-rejoining-erasmus-mobility-scheme

A working class woman as PM, I can understand from your posting history how you would object to that. Goodness, a woman born and raised on a council estate eying the highest public office in the land. How dare she? The counter jumper should know her place!

I understand the excess deaths amongst the over 65s in the winter following the Labour’s implementation of means testing winter fuels allowance were in the order of 4,950. This is a staggering reduction of 87.8% from the appalling 40,800 deaths that occurred in the winter of 2014/2015 under the Tory Administration. I look forward to anyone producing evidence that the means testing of winter fuels allowances caused any of those 4,950 excess deaths while cautioning against relying on correlation as causation, lest the staggering difference in excess deaths amongst pensioners under each government takes us off topic. https://www.ageuk.org.uk/siteassets/documents/reports-and-publications/reports-and-briefings/health--wellbeing/age_uk_excess_winter_deaths_briefing_june_2016.pdf https://www.endfuelpoverty.org.uk/4950-excess-winter-deaths-caused-by-cold-homes-last-winter/

Nonsense, oil and gas extracted in the UK is the property of the companies that hold the licenses. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-67945281#:~:text=He is right.," Dr Cran-McGreehin says.

Bezalel Smotrich has been very clear about his view of how tris war in Gaza ends. The complete destruction of Gaza and the displacement of the Palestinians. Trump personal envoy Steve Witkoff had this to say: “We want to bring the hostages home, but Israel is not willing to end the war. Israel is prolonging it.” So perhaps Bezalel Smotrich is simply saying the quiet bit out loud, the objective is ethnic cleansing of Palestine and a land grab. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/may/16/donald-trump-middle-east-tour-should-terrify-benjamin-netanyahu-usa-israel

You did however state during your election campaign that you would end this war in 24hrs. You own that Donny as much as it now owns you.

Has announced his dad as his VP pick yet? I do though think he’s getting ahead of himself. Let’s see what the mid-terms bring.

Excellent news. The UK’s return to the Erasmus program is the big prize here, great news for UK students, British universities, British athletes and British sports professionals. The Tories taking the UK out of Erasmus was an act of wanton vandalism. Get it done, you know it makes sense.

Jonny, you’ve claimed granny freezing. Do you have evidence that this actually happened?
