Why Some Brits Envy America’s Donald Trump

As a Brit I'm envious.

 

They have a strong leader who cares about the country and it's people.

 

We have a lying simp who hates the country and it's people.

This perspective sounds like it’s coming from a pretty narrow view of British politics.  "Gammons" comes to mind. Typically portrayed as men (though not exclusively) with flushed faces, bald heads, and England flags draped everywhere, often driving white vans they need for their side jobs. A badge of honor for a lack of sophistication and nationalist fervor.

[Will B Good]

Trump’s inaugural spectacle, from Melania’s striking outfit to Barron Trump’s towering presence, encapsulated the grandeur and assertiveness that some Britons feel is missing in their political landscape. Figures like JD Vance, who embodies the American Dream, further fuelled the longing for leadership that champions the working class and eschews politically correct quotas in favor of natural diversity.

 

 

I have never read such utter tripe since.......nope....since forever.

Rather embarrassing for Starmer this one as he made this big announcement about the UK becoming an "AI Superpower to boost growth" a mere week ago.  The moron fails to realize that AI requires data centers - lot's of them, and data centers consume power - lot's of it, and the UK has the highest energy costs on the planet due to net zero insanity and offshoring the energy to other countries to tick a virtue signalling box.  

 

The Labour government seem to be completely devoid of any intelligence, artificial or otherwise.

Hate to disappoint you Noods, but I am far from bald, and I drive a Hybrid sedan (it is white though).

 

But enough about me (and your lazy stereotypes), Starmer remains a lying simp while Trump remains a legend. Many Brits would love such a charismatic leader with common sense policies, that loves his country.

You also said Americans hated him and look where he sits now... back in that non circular office

[jippytum]

I wish Starmer or any UK Politician had the guts to act swiftly on their pre electlon manifest. 

Trump acted within hours.  in comparison Starmer's  election promises are after Six months just talk. 

 Any UK politician with Trump,'s resolve on illegal immigration will win a similar election by a landslide and win the popular vote.

It is, to be fair, an excellent example of how the hard of thinking can easily be swayed.

 

Why aren't the Brits going to land on Mars?

 

Britons looking on with a mix of awe and envy.......really?

 

.........left some British onlookers wishing for a similar figure who would unapologetically place their country’s needs first......... Just what the Brits want?....the likes of Farage signing executive orders and issuing them like confetti.....no thanks.

 

As articles go in the Telegraph, this has to be one of the most atrocious I have ever read......if I didn't know better I would have said riclag had written it with the help of Musk.

The massive foreign aid budget?

 

Saying he prefers Davos to Parliament?

 

Freezing the pensioners?

 

Treating illegal immigrants with kid gloves?

 

Screwing the farmers?

 

Good enough? Or are you expecting a signed document "I, 2 Tier Keir do hereby declare that I detest Britain, especially the working class" with an official government stamp and certificate of authenticity?

That's a lot of nonsense .

Obviously you're a Facebook fan and believe what you can read.

"Last year, in a gift to conspiracy theorists everywhere, Sir Keir Starmer revealed he preferred the World Economic Forum to parliament. “Once you get out of Westminster, whether it’s to Davos or anywhere else,” he said, “you actually engage with people that you can see yourself working with in the future. Westminster is just a tribal shouting place.”

All other points ate wrong or not new.

Enjoy Facebook🤣. Good bye

In other words, everyone agrees with his globalist agenda in Davos. 

 

Unlike Parliament, where his lies and deceit are called out (except when they are silenced to "protect the integrity of the trial").

Who is "we"?

 

If the UK really "needed" Paul Golding and Britain First, please explain firstly how many seats the party won at the last election in the UK, and secondly. why are they are not in power and running the UK at the moment?

 

https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-10009/

 

2024 election results 

 

Of 650 available seats across the UK, The Britain First party won the grand total of Zero.

 

Could it be that the UK voting public don't agree with you.

 

I certainly don't.

Adjudicated rapist....Trump? Totally false, a total lie perpetrated by a liar. Trump was NEVER convicted of rape. You are a total liar and fraud for trying to convince people of your lies. You have court docs attesting to your blatant lies?

The message was quite clear when they fled indoors because of some inclement weather and let their acolytes freeze outside.

 

I learnt leading from the front. But from cowards like that you can't expect even any attempt to hide their deep contempt for the dolts they've duped.

Secede means withdraw from. You can't secede to something. The U.K. cannot secede from anything, although each member country could theoretically cede from the Union, subject to a change in the constitution. Perhaps you mean succumb. 🙂
