      While that’s reasonable I feel we should have already been declining on 2 important points:

      It’s Trump
      Genocide

    3. davus_maximus on

      Nothing to do with the billion-dollar entry bribe payable into Trump’s personal account, then?

    4. plastic_eagle on

      „Holds off“? Holds Off??

      The entire things is complete madness from top to bottom. Just tell Trump to F*ck Off and get on with running the country.

      For once we should embrace our diminished standing in the world and sort our own shit out rather than get involved in grandstanding when we have very little to gain.

      Looking at the list so far, is that an Islamic Board of Peace?

      Pakistan, Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Turkiye, Saudi Arabia and Qatar

      And also the undeniable fact that Donald Trump was an active participant in the Gaza Genocide by choosing to green-light it every step of the way and providing all the weaponry used.

      If that’s their only concern then can we call a general election now?

      WTF is the UN for?

    10. Yoko_Smoko on

      Trump’s board of peace feels like a Marvel movie where all the super villains team up.

    12. Actual-Photograph794 on

      Why would they have anything to do with it anyway, what effing planet are the government on?

    13. Confident-Ant-3763 on

      Joining will mean admitting the UN is done, and that Trump is the one and true emperor

    14. Ready-Zombie5635 on

      Well, if Trump complains that the UK hasn’t joined expect another U-Turn, as the UK seems beholden to doing what they are told.

      I would have thought that the fact it’s a rampantly megalomaniacal vanity project would be a key consideration:

      * Trump is Chairman for life
      * he can only be sacked by a unanimous vote of the Executive Board
      * coincidentally, he has unlimited discretion to appoint and dismiss members of the Executive Board
      * he gets to choose his successor
      * decisions of the Board of Peace are subject to his approval.

      We’ve realised that his political RAM only goes as far back as 2016, so it’s not like he’s going to remember things like Litvinenko. Even Salisbury’s a stretch.

    17. LongLiveNeechi on

      To be honest with you, anyone who joins this so-called peace board is an idiot. The fact that Trump is appointing himself to lead it is ridiculous. Apparently, it doesn’t even get passed on to the next president, it’s just his name listed as a member of the board.

      It’s a complete con. I find it unbelievable that countries are actually entertaining this.

    18. healeyd on

      Christ stop playing the angles and just say ‘no’. So tired of how lily-livered the UK gets with regard to the US.

    19. Cute_Ad_9730 on

      What possible legitimacy does Trump have to even presume this role in the first place ?

    21. WestCareer7545 on

      Putin concerns? Netanyahu is on it too and he’s a war criminal wanted by the ICC. I’m sure all the mainstream news sites will convienently forget that though

    22. lucyuktv on

      We’re going to need a new word for when people aren’t fighting. Trump is devaluing the word peace so much lately.

    25. PaleMaleAndStale on

      Why not just hold off permanently because it’s yet another blatantly corrupt shakedown by a known grifter? The idea of giving Trump a billion dollars of UK taxpayers money makes me want to scream. He can dress it up how he likes but we all know it’s going straight in his back pocket.

    27. richardathome on

      Why the fuck are we even considering giving a billion quid to that orange cunt???!

    28. Blank3k on

      I’m cool with UK joining if it goes into the US Treasury, future presidents might actually run with it & it could facilitate a shift politically with countries that currently aren’t on our good list.

      …..but I suspect that 1bn goes straight into Trumps shadowy Qatar bank account, I strongly feel this is nothing more than a global-scale scam, scaled up from that of Trump University, Trump Mobile & the poor fools who donate to daily spam begging emails to his MAGA morons, if the UK leadership fell for such a scam… Complete incompetence and lack of did diligence.

    29. circleribbey on

      I imagine the fact that its a private institution that has Trump as the lifetime chair, and you are required to pay $1 Billion cash to join is a bit off-putting too.

    31. Personal_Director441 on

      Board of Peace is a joke, just look at this lot ‚Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey and Egypt announced they would join the board. Israel has also publicly confirmed its participation.‘ no problem with human rights abuses in any of those countries, Argentina is Trumps bitch after the £40 billion bailout and Orban is a Russian asset same as him, we shouldn’t be anywhere near it.

    32. SP1570 on

      Clearly this has little to do with Gaza…

      The UK and Canada and France (and others) will join the Chinese new order. The devil you know is better than an erratic conman.

    33. AssumptionBudget279 on

      While I am glad they haven’t signed off on it, I do definitely think they should REJECT it. 

      I do wonder though is the reason they are looking at it is, to another way to influence Trumps decisions joining a board like this and try and steer him away from dangerous choices 

      Yet it had Russia, clearly this is not a “peace board” 

    36. Arturo_turo on

      Nothing like watching well-known politicians being scammed by a convicted criminal in real time.

    37. Life_Court8209 on

      Exactly. The core issue isn’t just Putin, it’s the credibility of the entire initiative when it’s spearheaded by someone who openly admires authoritarian leaders. Associating with that platform would undermine our own stated principles. It’s a straightforward decision to stay well clear.

    38. technomat on

      It’s a no from me, money to a Fraudulent Rapist when we have the UN, work on sorting the UN or create a peace group made up of mentally stable grown ups, not a man baby with a dictator complex.
