I have never heard anyone denigrate England. And tariffs between the two countries existed long before the current efforts to reset trade. -

Trump: Putin agrees with him US should not have mail-in voting
I'm not a fan of mail-in voting. The state has no idea who filled out the ballot. -

Police and immigration cars at 2 a.m.
Immigration don´t need a Warrant. They can make home visits without suspicion and prior notice! My neighbor in the Village recently happened at 9 pm. -

UK-Politics 25 Lies - How is Starmer still in office
Nope it doesn't work like that at all. As I suggested, do some reading on British parliamentary democracy and our 'unwritten' constitution. To make it simpler, ChatGPT summarises it in a very simple way: In the UK, general elections decide who forms the government, and there are specific rules about how and when they can be called: 1. Fixed Term (Maximum 5 Years) By law, Parliament must be dissolved and a general election held at least every five years. The current rules come from the Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act 2022, which replaced the Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011. 2. Calling an Early Election Under the 2022 Act: The Prime Minister can request the King to dissolve Parliament at any time. This is a return to the old system of “royal prerogative,” though in practice it is the Prime Minister’s decision. 3. Exceptional Circumstances Parliament can also end early if the government loses the confidence of the House of Commons and no alternative government is formed. Sometimes a Prime Minister may call an early election if they believe their party has a strong chance of winning (for example, to increase their majority). 4. Election Timetable Once Parliament is dissolved, an election is normally held 25 working days later. ✅ In short: UK general elections must be held at least every 5 years, but the Prime Minister can ask the King to dissolve Parliament earlier and trigger one whenever politically convenient.
