I see the Epstein/Trump letter is becoming another conspiracy type theory 
So Trump tactics of cover ups are now being used against him

So Trump does what he was elected to do reduces imports which you have been arguing is putting America first. But its the UK governments fault for ... Oh erm not realising Trump was going to impose ridiculous tarrifs on the whole world?

You are comedy gold!  

Well the Data shows that the US economy is doing pretty good right now. So not sure where you get your bollocks from probably some left wing propoganda network.


You do realize that the rest of the world had Tarrifs in place against the USA already? OR are you saying it’s only OK if the USA pays Tarrifs?

Whats your point... can you actually read. Im not talking about the US economy Im saying that the tarrifs whether they were reciprocal or not have affected the export of jaguar cars that is all. Stop making an argument where there isnt one. Yes its good for the US reducing imports and its partly due to the tarrifs - ok - Trumps plan worked whoopee!

Its what you wanted! 

My original point before you thought I was attacking Yrumps performance was that these job cuts are not the factory workers but 500 management! So not the shop floor workers as Trundle made out. That is all move on ffs!

[Nutsin]

Blame the inept British Gov’t.

As for Trump he is doing what he was elected to do, put the USA first.

Are those the 500 management jobs which are "going as part of a voluntary redundancy programme for managers in the UK".

It comes after JLR revealed last week that retail sales plunged 15.1% in the three months to June after a temporary pause in exports to the US and the planned wind-down of older Jaguar models, while wholesale sales dropped by 10.7%.

 

The company said the significant fall in sales was partly driven by the pause in shipments to the US in April after US President Donald Trump’s administration introduced new tariff plans.

 

In April, the US government said it would launch an additional 25% tariff on car imports into the US, in an effort to encourage more car production within the country.

So thanks in part to Trumps tarrif war!

Starmer said it’s only fair that those that are paying in ie taxes etc etc should have the right to have a say in how the country is run.

So does that mean that those on benefits shouldn’t? As far as I’m aware they don’t pay in.

We did know the identity. He was a Welsh Choirboy!

Looks like the government is going ahead with its intentions to lower the voting age to 16

So we weren't allowed to know the identity of that cսnt who butchered the kids in Southport because he wasn't yet 18, but 16 year olds are allowed to vote in the GE...

Impressionable youngsters these days are more likely to vote for Farage than Starmer, so to coin a phrase...

Be careful what you wish for. 🗳

[Lee Trundle]

They're certainly doing everything possible to try to stay in power.  How long before all these Afghans are allowed to vote?

The rise in inflation should see interest rates go up
Have a cash ISA maturing in October so up to about 8% would do the trick. Just in time for the protected balance on deposits going from £85,000 to £100,000 on Dec 1st as well

I see Trump reckons this whole Epstein thing is ‘a hoax’.
Guess the next executive order will be the release of Ghislaine Maxwell
