I hope the farmers blame the Tories who gave us Brexit and Liz Truss who ‘negotiated’ the trade deal, (despite everyone saying this would happen) not Labour who are saddled with the mess.

That is classic dictator play. Pit groups against each other on multiple topics - Brexit, immigration, the economy, nation states and as they all fight each other - take control. It hasn’t worked in UK yet but Trump is succeeding in the US. DO NOT LET FARAGE DO IT HERE.

Er… Where is the oil? So whose oil was it again?
Trump on Venezuela: "Getting land, oil rights, whatever we had -- they took it away because we had a president that maybe wasn't watching. But they're not gonna do that. We want it back. They took our oil rights. We had a lot of oil there. They threw our companies out. And we want it back."

Trump loves conflict. He relishes opposition. He sees them as proof he is respected and feared.
But he HATES being mocked and treated as the pathetic man-baby he is. Because, deep down, he KNOWS it’s true.

Cutting physical contact with Europeans is not just an inevitable consequence of this gross invasion of privacy, it is the purpose of the measures.
It's so much easier to "other" people with lies if there's no direct social contact between the group you're influencing & the one you're alienating.
