To add to the madness of it all, the attack on Venezuela is clearly, above all, an oil grab. But we scarcely need oil any more.

Keir Starmer says it is in Britain’s interests to “align more closely with the EU single market” and “we should”.
Interestingly this is one of his most passionate answers in a long interview.
I think we can expect movement on this issue in 2026. Brexit still remains an unsettled matter.

REP. GOLDMAN: “Trump promised oil executives if they gave him $1 billion for his campaign, he’d do right by them. They gave about $500 million. This is a massive gift in violation of international law, essentially just co-opting an entire country's natural resources for the benefit of 🇺🇸 Companies.”
