And why is the US military still able to use UK bases? Why is Palantir - a US spy tech company - so embedded into our vital infrastructure? And why do we have a Labour Govenrment who absolutely cower at the idea of speaking out against the criminal President?

If we wake up and find Trump unleashed devastation, Labour’s silence will be absolutely damning. If Trump has beyond hopefully de-escalated, it’s still damning. In the face of genocide, what exactly is the point of the silent UK Prime Minister?

Imagine a foreign adversary, during negotiations, unilaterally attacked and destroyed Harvard, Yale, MIT and 50 other universities and cancer research centers, killing students and even targeting professors in their homes. It would be greatest outrage of the century.

For how how long have we been told that the US has this fabulous written Constition whereas we do not? But the US Constitution has been shown to be the emperor with no clothes It might as well be a blank sheet of paper It might as well not exist The US is acting entirely on the whim of one man
