Not if you're working for Trump bro, he's about to slash taxes (if you're rich) But yeah you might have to pay a bit more than Zero
For the most part “foreign aid” are words that are incorrectly used. Generally, countries like the US send “aid” money to win lucrative contracts. For example, the US sent aid money to rebuild Iraq after the war. What they failed to mention was they returned the money to US companies who “won” the rebuilding contracts!
Halliburton Had the contract for everything from supplying field tents, tank tracks, bridges and all the infrastructure for military operations, then went back in with more contracts to rebuild after the Yanks had blown the place up Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary at the time I believe was also a major shareholder in Halliburton No conflict of interest there …..
Buying the electorate, if there is excess money, it should go towards lowering the deficit this year. Government giving everyone cheques is what caused the runaway inflation the first time he was in office with all the COVID spending. We had only just recovered from massive inflation from Trump's last time in office when he announced all those tariffs, and inflation has already shot back up again... hate to see the mess we'll be in with inflation if he gives everyone 8k.
Divide communities so that they no longer stand together. Gives the rich and powerful free reign with nothing to stop them. No power whether through vote or protest. It's happened in the US and now it's happening here in mini America. Nothing to be done, too late.
Another great day in the office for President Trump and President Musk, as now it turns out that they have wielded the axe at the department of food and agriculture and sacked the guys that were dealing with avian flu, which is sweeping across the US. With a dozen eggs costing $14, what a smart move Note to myself…must get Trumps “art of the deal” book
In other news Trumps social network company, Truth Social, posted its last years accounts which shows a loss of $400m against a total revenue of $3.1m for the year. They also had to provide some kind of financial report to the SEC, which basically said they cannot guarantee that this company won’t go the same way as all of Trumps other companies. It then went on to list bankruptcies and liquidation of pretty much everything he’s ever been involved in. It was pretty damming showing Trump as a businessman.
Easily solved - increased tariff on Canadian eggs whilst labelling Trudeau a dictator - another point on his popularity rating with the single digit IQ unwashed ...
I entered a competition for first year uni students to do a week’s work experience at the BOE. The question was about who that hadn’t been featured on a note should be on the next £20. Did it on Bobby Moore and was selected. Interesting week albeit didn’t learn much.
He’s more for the £50. Sucky, despite only being 12 at the time, wrote a convincing argument for Oswald Mosley.
