Whereas in the past, the UK would have been part of any EU retaliation, it now risks the double whammy of being harmed by the US law and any European response to it. We're now at the stage where we're having to beg the EU for favours. Talk about 'taking back control' eh.

Aye, it was said during the brexit campaign that the UK would be weaker outside the EU but this was dismissed as project fear. Well here we are.

I don’t recall a cross but I do remember the bloke with a poster held high on a pole just stating. JOHN 3:16 I’ve looked it up and it states; For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. I’m still no wiser. Does that mean we’re all going to burn in hell for daring to attend football on Sundays? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well here we are. I read it as a trade war created by Biden government and that the EU are considering retaliatory measures, we are cooperating with Japan in potential response, interestingly the last paragraph makes interesting reading. Always a silver lining if you dont just look for a negative, negative folk will always post negative content. Britain has agreed to work with Japan on its response, according to a person familiar, and the UK and US have agreed that if the US does make any amendments, the UK would be included in benefiting from them.

To be fair, whatever their reasons, its not likely that any president would wizz across the Atlantic in double quick time with open arms, as they would want to be seen as too willing. All part of the bargaining process. Meanwhile, quietly, the real work goes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All at the expense of British veterans who are forced to sleep on the hotel's doorstep. Plus it wasn't a kidnapping. The kids were really 67 years old and went willingly to sell drugs in the brothel. I know this because my mate RW told me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
