This is the worst UK environment news in a decade.

The papers we understand because they are mainly run by right wing tax dodging oligarchs. But the Beeb also has Farage fanboys at the top … hence the fawning coverage without scrutiny. Someone needs to get a grip Tim

Look, what is the US tariff today is a good question. But not one I can answer. There's a reason why there are rules and laws, and sane countries don't allow a President to just do whatever he feels like whenever he feels like it.

I sent this piece out yesterday. Is Trump acting like a Russian agent of influence. The evidence is fascinating and not comforting. Worth noting that yesterday after publicly complaining about Russia, Trump put off any decision on sanctions for weeks.
