The fundamental question on the EU-UK reset👇 is do we want to live within European norms or continue to fantasize we are a swash-buckling empire building nation of rabid capitalists with a side hussle as an American AI data centre & aircraft carrier. Tough call.
Whether by accident or design, the EU is making Britain decide whether it is truly, deeply, viscerally an 'all-in' European state, and not some half-arsed "let's-try-and-get-what-we-can-out-of-it" state.
It's going to be a long old road.
It's going to be a long old road.
You know what? I really don't think it is. Great domestic political posturing, but Labour have no plans to go beyond the 'reset' agenda, certainly none the EU are likely to accept. This will be talk to little if any action.

The US-Russia 28 point "peace" plan was a recipe for Russia to recover, rearm and renew its attacks. The US must be able to hold Russia to commitments that it makes, or else the West should expect further aggression in the future. 1/2

It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.
