Fillyboy, what do you think is the reason for you being absolutely brainwashed by Trump.Yes I PMSL earlier when I read about that. I have a feeling Donald won't be the walkover that Starmer was.
The EU are grown ups.![]()

Wow, stock markets and shares fell. If only we were warned that prices can go down as well as up, people wouldn't have lost money. Oh wait...Stock markets slumped in response to the news, the tech-heavy Nasdaq closed down 1% as Trump also signalled plans to impose tariffs on Apple, Samsung and other phone manufacturers. The broader S&P 500 lost 0.68%. The STOXX Europe 600 index fell by 1.7%. In London the FTSE 100 closed down 0.2% after initially dropping as much as 1.5%. Germany’s car makers were particularly hard hit, with BMW down 3.7%, Volkswagen off 2.6% and Mercedes-Benz down 4%. @ the Guardian
Trump's determined to bring more jobs back to America and wants Apple to move their factories from India - where they've just been set up. He seems to think he can simply splutter a few words into the air and stuff happens by magick.

Why did you vote Brexit?The EU are grown ups.
You voted for Brexit because you see things only in emotive terms. It’s a lack of emotional jntelligence.
