More shameful evidence that Trump’s tariffs are a tool to extort governments into enriching not only the US, but also the Trump dynasty and mafia syndicate… Patrimonialism & Kleptocracy at its best!

US needs to recognise that Russia and China are tight allies. It is highly likely US will be in a conflict with Russia and/or China in the next few years. So Ukraine is doing the US a huge favour by weakening Russia. And China will be watching to see Russian success before invading Taiwan.

Russia controls 19% of Ukraine territory after 3 years and over 1500 casualties per day. And it’s suffering from stagnation: 13% inflation (25% food inflation), 21% interest rates, and declining GDP.
So Trump needs to stop emboldening Putin and EU needs to gain confidence that it can win.

Of course, I do agree that the Torys are the losers. I left the Conservatives for the Lib Dems because I’m pro-EU, pro-Ukraine, pro-increased national defence and anti-Trump/Musk/Vance.
The Torys are too busy chasing Reform votes… so have lost long standing members like me.

Self-fulfilling prophecy. While it’s right to point out the trend… we are actually adding to Reform’s momentum by giving Farage a disproportionate amount of coverage.
I don’t see coverage at on the Lib Dem’s despite their strong gains and unique messages on EU and Trump.
