Lest we forget, Farage and Badenoch initially cheered this on and slammed the government until it became clear what a disaster it is.
So glad Israel and America decided to start this war for no fucking reason.
Brilliant, Labour will now have an external excuse for the state of the economy…..
Trump and MAGA are economic terrorists.
They will personally benefit from this due to market manipulation. Their billionaire supporters will reap huge gains.
Our industries and economy will be further crippled erasing whatever fragile progress we have made in recovery from Tory mismanagement.
American capital is a parasite that is killing us.
I’ve already lived through four recessions I guess. What’s one more for the road. 🥲
Not just the UK that will be in recession if the straits of Hormuz stay shut for long. The world is losing 20 million Barrels of oil per day and the Straits have been shut since the 28th of Feb.
If the US can’t get them open pretty quickly its going to trigger a global recession and so far the Donald doesn’t seem to have a clue what to do. Starmer made the right call when he decided to stay out of this mess.
I think the government need to step in to stop.the oil companies ripping drivers off fuel prices are rising so fast due some orse in the USA why should we pay for this
Cool I wonder if this’ll affect the super wealthy or just the rest of us
UK economy was already on track for a recession at some point this year given the January growth numbers. You can’t tax your way to growth.
I need to remortgage in December. Things were looking OK for a less-than large stick to shove up my backside.
Because of this orange fool, my rate will be 1, 1.5% higher than it could have been
Remember to get buttoned up in your best suit and tie, to express your thanks to the Emperor on his Golden Throne, for all the peace and prosperity he is bringing the world
Sweet, as a millennial, we just love a cheeky recession.
Praying THIS war is the one that finally wakes up the world to not only, you know, the existential need for renewable energy but also the geopolitical ramifications of being fuel dependent on a region that American and Israeli aggression has been posturing a war with for decades
I am sick and tired of people blaming labour when the alternative is absolutely dire
Tories ..scum of the earth, self serving, destroyed the UK with Brexit gutted our infrastructure to privatisation.
Reform ..basically scraping the baral of failed politicians criminals racists and biggots
Lib Dems …who? Where do they stand? How did that coalition go? Disaster.
Green party …the loonies ..the plumber plaster college whose now an MP getting 100k sallery for the rest of her life..who cries when she talks about her dogs when there’s war in Europe..you couldn’t make it up.
So please stop bashing labour..they have a plan at least they’re sorting out the economy one step at a time..starmer has had to sort out the mess left over from the conservatives while holding back Russia and US of goose steppers. He got handed down a military deficit of 20 billion while not having a military at all because of all the cuts..then they’re having to sort out trade deals from the Brexit disaster ..probably still trying to recover from COVID costs. Then we had the riots ..then we had the billionaires trying to manipulate us ..then we had trump trying to sue the BBC ..then we’ve had trump threatening to invade the commonwealth.How well did the previous PMs do …couldn’t hack it, broke the economy..lost the trust in the stock markets…disaster. ok starmer lacks that punch he’s not exactly stoic either ..but I’m fed up of characters ..we need someone to do the job and he’s effectively dealing with none stop fires ..so for the love of God can we please give the guy a break.
Just popped in to say a quick hello to those who just last week were telling me how the evil Iranian regime had to be taken out and are now complaining about the price of petrol .
I wish you peace and hopefully one day you will be able to connect the dots.
The US has dragged us all down, thanks orange prick.
Although if you gamble and ride your luck it’s going to run out.
He got lucky with Maduro that they had zero casualties, one downed helicopter would have been chaos.
Trump forget that when planning strategy the other side has a say. I shed no tears for the Iranian regime but from their point of view they’ve been bombed twice in the last year during negotiations and they’ve been forced into an existential war. So they’ll fight and make it as hard for the US as possible. The US can’t just say mission accomplished now as Iran can just frustrate Hormuz shipping and Trump’s getting sucked into a ground war.
the fact that this orange idiot is screwing everyone over makes him all the more hateable….Iran if you’re reading he lives in FL. I can screen shot the location, just saying….
It’s infuriating how the architects of this mess were initially celebrating it. This reckless foreign policy is going to tank our economy, and ordinary people will pay the price. Thanks for the archive link, by the way.
Europe needs to figure out if it wants to be a collared traumatised pup to a crazy person (America in this metaphor) or not
Even post trump government, any parties they have in power will pursue the same policy just more subtler.
I don’t think the America European relationship is ever going to be restored to what it was that this isn’t a blip and if anything trump blundering through all these actions has made them realise how much they can do with impunity
There is likely never going to be a conscious uncoupling but Atleast in some industries we can maintain independence
If America would kindly piss off for a few years and sort their shit out that’d be great.
We’ve been in a recession in the real world for months.
This is just someone trying to cover for the government’s economic illiteracy.
Epstein, trump, bannon etc have played an absolute blinder.
Got control of the us and just crippled the world energy market, russia getting a pass, prostituting underage girls etc etc
And they seem to be getting away with it.
Those files must have an impressive reach.
