The idea that the liberal rules-based order can survive his presidency now seems complacent. This is a historic moment – and a time to act, says former UK prime minister Gordon Brown

Q: “Have you invited Putin to be a member of the Board of Peace?”

Trump: “Yeah. He's been invited”

On Macron saying he will not join the Board of Peace

Trump: “Nobody wants him.. If they feel hostile, I’ll put a 200% tariff on his wines and champagnes & he’ll join”

British voters don’t like Trump. In foreign affairs, he’s all Farage has got. Unless he wants to go public about Putin. So now, what does Farage do? Apparently he’ll have “some words” with the American delegation in Davos. Hahahaha.

Delusional, traitorous clown.
liveapp.inews.co.uk/category/417...
Nigel Farage with Donald Trump during a previous meeting in the United States - a relationship that once burnished Farage's profile but is increasingly seen as a political liability in Britain (Photo of Farage with his huge mouth open talking to Trump who doesn’t look like he rates what’s being said) In an effort to leverage his relationship with the White House into something positive, he has also promised to "have some words" with the American delegation in Davos, in the hope that the new tariff attack may be reduced or eliminated entirely. That's probably Farage's best option when it comes to turning the undeniable minus of their relationship into a plus, but it will only work if Trump actually listens. There's the rub. Look at the President's recent and increasingly erratic behaviour: deriding allies, trampling hard-won friendships, denouncing nations which sent men and women to bleed and die for America in Afghanistan as unreliable and now threatening war within Nato itself. Right now, Trump doesn't look like he is in the mood to listen to anyone.

The man is a racist. Of course he’ll peddle National Front-style discrimination.

As well as scrapping the Employment Rights Act and weakening workers’ rights, Farage would get rid of protection against race discrimination too.

His prejudice ruining your life.

Germany and France are united: we will not be blackmailed. There will be a clear and united European response, and we are already preparing joint countermeasures. If President Trump maintains his tariff threats, Europe is ready. We are not seeking escalation. Our hand remains outstretched, but we will not be blackmailed. We are constantly experiencing new provocations by Trump. There is a limit, and that limit has now been reached.
