I am not a royalist. Polite diplomacy demanded an invitation to Trump I suppose – but we are paying. After the discourtesy shown to Zelenskyy we should set the rules clearly for a visit by the POTUS. Limit the visit to him and immediate family, no Musk or Vance. He will then probably throw a hissy fit and refuse to come – what a fucking shame! he attempted to out prance the Queen last time – so Charlie should be prepared for antics if the C*** does come.
Inviting Trump is not popular – a well co-ordinated plan would make any visit uncomfortable for all involved. drones over Balmoral, blocking the M4 and if necessary Heathrow? The opportunities are endless!
Zelensyy is seeing the King later so we can get an early one-up on Trump!
Budgety things! The governemnt has proposed diverting Russian assets seized to fund Ukraine – a start. Defence funding will inevitably rise – taxing MNC’s would seem a good way to do this!. I am sure the Uk, Germany, France and other countries can agree this! What must not happen is the cutting of important budgets like education, health, aid, and green progress. This later cound be funded by tax breaks rather than direct investment. Nuclear power plants are funded by promises of guaranteed pricing per watt. Similar schemes were used for solar panels – do it again. Some labour investment plans will take years to pay profits but this should not stop them. Steps are already being taken to increase efficiency – council changes should speed these things up.
