J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost.
The inconsistency reveals this isn’t about economics.

So 80% of Reform MPs went to private school before going on to careers in such working class jobs as investment banking. By comparison 100% of Green MPs went to ordinary schools alongside the rest of us. So tell me again. Which party is rooted in real working class values.

No, the US could have secured a deal any time over the past two years by ending the shipments of bombs.
