86% of our UK arms imports come from the United States.
We are far too reliant on Donald Trump - he is unpredictable and dangerous.
Stop hoping it's going to go away. Time to stand up to the bully and to rebuild our relationships outside of the USA.

Sadly FIFA have shown themselves to be completely corrupt time and time again.
Whether giving made up peace prizes to Donald Trump or allowing countries with terrible human rights records or history of violating international law to play.
I know I certainly wouldn't feel safe going to the World Cup.

Trump’s a misogynist, his hateful, xenophobic and dangerous rhetoric was allowed to go unchecked and like all bullies his behaviour got worse.

And this is why the very rigid view that some have that to win you need to shift closer to the opposition(eg. Labour -> Reform) is just not really true.
Winning votes from non-voters is massively underestimated, perhaps shown through Corbyn 2017 very well, although he didn't win ofc.

There is is something very important to bear in mind when looking at Reform's drop in the polls in Wales.
Yes, their vote share has dropped...BUT... this doesn't mean that fewer people are supporting them...

I'm realistically in this category too.
If asked in a poll, I'd say I'd vote Green, but in the right seat, that's not necessarily true.
So, yeah, as usual, polling = pinch of salt and all that stuff.
