Could understand if a big building spoiled the view, but rather that than a smelly tip, noisy factory or some such. Additional benefit of living near a prison is that you could buy a bow or an air rifle and practice shooting at all the drones. Quote

miamiwhite Posted July 25, 2025 Author Posted July 25, 2025 Not flicking through endless pages,... so, a bit of balance here....Len McCluskey, I see why both sides despised him.....I was a Labour voters in those days. He had principles 😉 😘 Sharon Graham....fine lady, met her a few times on Union meetings....yes, I contribute to them via work. Very very interesting on what is actually said at those meetings, not as left wing as folk think Quote

Winchester White Posted July 28, 2025 Posted July 28, 2025 So because of Brexit we have managed to get a better deal with the US due to Trump's ridiculous tariff policy that is likely to be temporary anyway. Maybe someone better with numbers than I can explain how much better off we are all going to be? Quote

Tonge moor green jacket Posted July 28, 2025 Posted July 28, 2025 Not that he had much option- low tariffs or high ones. Biden didn't want to know when it came to trade deals, but Trump does. We knew what was coming, and the government made the best job out of the situation. But yes, being out means we're now better off. Quote

Spider Posted July 28, 2025 Posted July 28, 2025 Trump and Sir Keir are like randy teenagers. Inseparable. Must be making a lot of piss boil, this. Quote
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted July 28, 2025 Posted July 28, 2025 I think Starmer's probably done the best of all world leaders in his dealings with Trump so far Trump's so volatile it might not last, but there's not a lot to complain about up to this point Quote

Appease his child like ego and fondness for all things British and try not to annoy him too much. You rightly say Trump is volatile so this is the sensible approach, for the time being at least until he changes his mind again. Quote
