The Next Election, Political News, and Other Forms of Comedy (US, UK, & Intl)


As a Canadian I am not shedding a tear. The rhetoric against us was more severe a year ago including denigrating then PM into a state governor. But what did Europeans do then? They laughed it off.

Unlike the threat of tariffs we actually got tariffed on steel, aluminum, softwood lumber et al.

Where was the British PM then? Giving hand jobs for his 10% non binding tariff deal.
Well said.

Carney spoke strongly in Davos today.

“The old order is not coming back. We should not mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy. But from the fracture, we can build something better, stronger and more just”

wtf
 

"Bessent went on to say there is a 'rumour that they may have a referendum on whether they want to stay in Canada or not'"



Is Rutte going to negotiate something for us too? This is, by the way, the third level of tariffs after Liberation Day + sectoral tariffs last summer + now I hate you because of China tariffs.
