All of our British supporters of Trump’s need to protect American should note.

The U.S. State has turned child abuser. 2000 children some as young as a few months hold have been taken from their parents when crossing the border into the United States. Above is a picture taken yesterday of a two year old seeing their mother being arrested by the…[Read more]

arron banks strikes again!

this time posing as the champion of African peasants.

3 out of 10 for an understanding of how the 3rd world is screwed by the West – Brtiain and the USA as well as the EU.

Next time read Michael Barratt Brown’s book, After Imperialism (critically) and Andre Gunder Frank’s books on development and underdevelopment in…[Read more]

On the ball, as usual, paigey.

Unlike these people who follow the arron banks strategy of lying your head off and leading people up the garden path.

Thanks for a reasoned argument, justH.

I really don’t know what the outcome will be. It’s on a knife-edge, and that’s just within Britain. It’s going to be on a knife-edge within Britain for…[Read more]

Sorry if you thought it patronising, Ms M,

but if QE is unable to understand what a trade war is, and thinks it the same as trade competition, then it has to be explained.

I was shocked that I had to explain it, because you’ve no need to have an Economic Phd to understand the difference between trade and a trade war.

What Gerry calls Trump…[Read more]

Well, alfie, your if proved right in this instance. Safe bet.

And it’s becoming a safe bet that Brexit, which is in the process of getting totally bolloxed up, is on the countdown.

With effectively 3 months to go for a deal, the government can’t get it together, can they? They face one of the toughest negotiating teams in the world, and Arron…[Read more]

If Trump’s trade war with Britain does start, and if it gets out of control, then let Gerry explain this to the people who shop in a supermarket and the people who lose their jobs.

In the meantime, because I really don’t understand, could you tell me, Gerry,  in what way Trump is trying to develop a protectionist racket, and a Ponzi…[Read more]

Well, mister q, a lot of people find all the discussion gets quite confusing.

Most just give it up as a bad job, and when all the abuse starts to pour, they are convinced it just willy-wagging.

But that’s not how I approach it.

Some people read the discussions carefully – Linda says she does.

And really if people read things more carefully -…[Read more]

Sorry, alfie,

ifs and buts are seen as essential to rational debate*.

They’re needed whenever the argument isn’t a Simple Simon argument.It’s needed  means an argument which isn’t a Simple Simon arguemnt.

It’s made in this case because of people evading the simple question,  comes down to what’s your Plan B?

And they still haven’t answered i…[Read more]

do you remember my fight with panda, Jen, over whose dad was the toughest?

I still laugh at your reaction.

a bit more than 3 years ago for me, I’m afraid.

I woul d tell myself that if I had taken a different path, the pain would have been different, the excitement and pleasure would have been different, and the end would have been the same.

This doesn’t make sense.

Does Trump want a Ponzi scheme for America, a protectionist racket??

Do enlighten me. Try to let your rational mind take over from your angry face.

How is the EU a racket? It’s by no means perfect, and demands radical reform, but it bears no resemblance to the caricature I’ve been reading in jc and from Arron Banks.

Actually, a less misleading image concerns someone who decided to burn down their house to rid himself of pesky neighbours, looking a a big Union Jack signifying a lovely house around the corner where you can live alone..I would want a Plan B, just in case the new place turns out to be a leaky shack, or even just a Union Jack.

I am not saying…[Read more]

Sorry, I wasn’t referriong to you personally, QE.

I meant that the British people are in deep trouble with the bollocks being made of brexit.

I note that you resort to personal insult rather than answer the point made about terms of trade, rather than .

I once taught Economics – I got it from basic economics textbooks.

I have some blogs forced…[Read more]

Again, two people easily led up the garden path.

On the simple point of world trade, paigey is absolutely right.

We trade with other countries whether we’re in the EU or not. Deals have been made in China, South America etc by all the EU countries, being in or out isn’t going to stop trading.

That’s why the UK economy won’t collapse when we…[Read more]

God, you’re easily led up the garden path, aren’t you?

No wonder you voted Brexit.

There is a difference between a trade war and trade.

You shouldn’t need me to tell you.

If you can’t be bothered to google it, look at a supermarket as an analogy.

A supermarket is in competition with other supermarkets for the trade of customers.

When…[Read more]

I just thought this meme was funny.

It’s not a meme poking fun at other jc members, it’s a lampoon at two figures who are both very dangerous but who also have an air of absurdity about them.

It made me laugh.

It still makes me laugh.

the likelihood is that we’ll both be alive as brexit takes place, QE.

I think I said before that Mr Death doesn’t not respect age, especially when it comes to cancer etc.

Anyway, I’m enjoying looking at the chaos gradually descending on the brit countdown as Mrs May gets her knickers in a very bad twist.

As for what may happen, we’ll have to…[Read more]

Well, Trump says he wasn’t a great deal with Britain..

but then prepares to slap tariffs on steel , aluminium and cars.

India, rapidly emerging as the world’s third biggest economy, is keen for a deal, but brits might not like it – India can smell blood in the water.

Albania is very keen on a trade deal. they like our Norman Wisdom films.…[Read more]

Sometimes it is, Morgan, sometimes.

Other times – maybe not.

Trump sees himself as the master deal-spinner yet Kim pulls one over him.

Funny old world in that..

and not at all.
