Trump says he'll impose a 10% tariff (rising to 25% in June) on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland, because they've sent people to Greenland, until the US can buy Greenland.

Recent polls from the UK suggest that Refuk indeed have peaked. As have the Greens for now. Meanwhile, Libdems remain stable and have gained and Labour have recovered a little.

The Greens on the politico one appear to have nose-dived, no idea what happened there.

Genuinely laughable that this sub-mediocre-opportunistic-as-they-come no-mark could insist he’s putting personal ambition to one side to join Reform.
He says no one could seriously make that argument. Oh they could, Robert. Your vainglorious ego seems to have cut off the oxygen to your brain.

So many totally inadequate people have risen to the top.

Look at this ridiculous man

Thinks he could and should be Prime Minister.

Not an original idea in his head and all the charisma of a potato.

If this greedy and ridiculous man were to become Prime Minister, he'd be responsible for our security, safety, our NHS, our economy, and the welfare of our children.

Meanwhile he can't be bothered to do even basic checks on the Cameos that rake in £141,000 for him

I don't get what the GOP fuckheads are really doing when they slander the victim of state sanctioned murder, it doesn't change anything. Renee Good was shot in cold blood and she wasn't a direct threat to that ICE guy.

And so it begins.

Reform has grown, and people with opinions and egos have been allowed into Farage’s one man band.

A reminder that when Robert Jenrick was running for Conservative party leader he accepted £25,000 from a firm controlled by a sanctioned Oligarch.

He should fit in well

Jenrick defection to Reform is the end of him. Farage already struggles to contain more than one outsized ego in his parliamentary party. Certainly no room for anything the size of Robert's inflated sense of self-worth.

You mark my words - it'll end badly.

The only questio about 'defectors' to Farage is: "Were they lying before or are they lying now?"
The answer, invariably, is "Both".

So like, if or rather when WWIII kicks off, what do we all think the reason reported in the western press will be?

B:) Immigrants
C:) Unemployed People

Jenrick apparently "left his resignation speech printed out and hanging around" and "someone got hold of it".

He's got the brains of a 4 year old child - and that kid will be glad to have got rid of them.
BREAKING Kemi Badenoch has sacked Robert Jenrick from the shadow cabinet, removed the whip and suspended his party membership.

She says she was "presented with clear, irrefutable evidence that he was plotting in secret to defect" to Reform

Given all the other recent Conservative defections he's accepted, "I've always thought Robert Jenrick was a fraud" reads more like a recommendation than a criticism
