"That didn't protect neither of them getting tariffs from the US"

Trump has clearly not spoken to a single Palestinian about this plan. Gaza is our land. Palestine is our home. Peace cannot come at the cost of our country.
I urge the UK and the whole international community to resist him.
Recognise Palestine now, before it's too late.

Not understanding this chart should remove one's right to vote. Not undoing what happened in 2016 should remove one's right to govern.
I can be as critical as anyone of the government's occasionally muddled message on growth but Look! At! This! Chart!! Anything they've done pales next to this GIGANTIC UNFORCED ERROR COMMITTED IN 2016!
