The best part of Brexit was that my dad voted for it, even though he hasn't lived in the UK for 20 years. Then he got a letter from the government here, demanding a copy of his marriage certificate, or he would get deported. My mum teased him for weeks. "Oh Nein. I cant find it. Vhere could it be?"

Things are pretty extreme when I find myself agreeing with Chinese propaganda.
Trump starts a trade war and then folds. He is going to be surprised when he finds China is stronger than the US in a few years. It will certainly have a larger navy.

Damn Trump. Is there no end to the indignities he is inflicting on the rest of the world?
I've always rather enjoyed Bourbon, now I guess I'll have to stick to Scotch. And Irish. And English. And Japanese.

The United States runs a large trade SURPLUS with Australia, so they announced 25% tariffs. Why? Well just because.
