Most of Europe is united behind the Ukraine with varying amounts of enthusiasm. Only Hungary maintains a pro-Moscow stance with the right wing President Orban. The right wing parties across Europe are disorientated! Most have come out for Ukraine.
Meanwhile back home – how many MP’s does a Party need to start an internal fight? Reform Party has managed it with 5 M.P.s (1 now suspended from the Party)! To the tune of 10 green bottles “there were 5 absolute shits sitting in Parliament, and if one absolute shit should accidentally fall (or be pushed). …. etc. There are smiles all round here! And the R-W press are basically fucked. Reform fighting amongst themselves, Trump proving to be a right wing arsehole, their targets are limited. Meghan has been an early candidate but nothing much to report. The Mail has a go at Bercow for claiming travel expenses whilst speaker that seem exorbitant – but how many tories will be cringing and using a shredder!
So Europe might become closer rather than splitting apart. The UK should certainly be maximising trade deals across te channel. The Euro may become a challenge to the dollar – that would really piss Trump off. It may also be of concern that the UK is dependant on the US for its trident missiles – for which we pay £3billion a year! Perhaps we should align with the French nuclear umbrella – or even just not bother – how many nukes does it take to fuck earth? Cynical – moi?
Oh well – arguments against the EU are diminishing – an European Army arrangement seems sensible, and maybe therefore an economic alignment. The Chinese proverb “May you live in interesting times” has not been so relevant in my life time.
