Who will win Euro 2024?
Football managers generally need to learn from Rugby. Loyalty to a fading start is totally misplaced.....In Rugby only the team counts and the results it can achieve. Football managers keep hanging on to players past their sell by date and get punished for it.

No. He remains very unpopular.....much the same as Starmer in the UK remains quite unpopular. Are you thinking Taylor Swift should be president?

Aftermath of the Trump Assassination Attempt Staring into the Abyss
WHAT A DISASTER BIDEN HAS BEEN...... Under Trump’s sway, a recalcitrant Republican majority in the House of Representatives effectively derailed bipartisan reform legislation that was making its way through the Senate. Until that logjam is broken, the US immigration system and the border it defends will remain a disaster beyond repair. Access to affordable health care is Biden’s crowning achievement. The number of uninsured Americans hit an all-time low of 7.2% in the second quarter of 2023, while the number of people who signed up for an Obamacare plan for 2024 surged to 21.3 million. The economy added 14.8 million jobs over the first three years of his term, more than any president in US history over the same period. What’s more, unemployment has held below 4% for the longest stretch since the 1960s America’s cost of living, which surged to a four-decade high during Biden’s first two years, is poised to return to its pre-pandemic level this year. The CPI has plummeted at an unprecedented rate to 3.1%. The resulting disinflation — occurring while gross domestic product expanded 3.2% last quarter — is unmatched in modern history and the opposite of the 1970s, when inflation took eight years and five months to subside to 3%. American households are wealthier and in better financial shape than ever before by almost any measure. Even with a bear market in stocks in 2022 and elevated inflation, Federal Reserve data show household net worth rose to a record $156.2 trillion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2023, from $131.4 trillion at the end of 2020. Preliminary data suggest that inequality continued to narrow in 2023. Even better, the improvement — unlike during Biden’s first two years — was due to rising real wages. Since his inauguration, the S&P 500 Index has returned about 45%, more than double the total returns of the rest of the world’s developed-market equities. The US was in the midst of its worst spasm of violence in decades when Biden took office, with the homicide rate rising 29% in 2020. It rose again slightly in 2021, but started to fall that autumn. There was a slight year-over-year decline in 2022, then an 11.8% drop last year — the sharpest on record.

Aftermath of the Trump Assassination Attempt Staring into the Abyss
Trump’s administration built 52 miles of new primary border barriers — the first impediment people encounter if they’re trying to cross the southern border with Mexico, that can block access either for people on foot or for vehicles — where there were none before.

Yet after nearly four years of the Biden administration, America is now rocked by Raging Inflation, Open Borders, Rampant Crime, Attacks on our Children, and Global Conflict, Chaos, and Instability.....utter dross.

Traveling from Thailand to the UK on a cargo ship.
I've looked at that a few times in the past......the prices quoted were astronomical. Your best bet is to work the sailing and get paid for the trip......accommodation, if you go, is very, very basic.
