Iβve never seen this clip, from a few years ago. The best articulation of simple geopolitical reality Iβve seen in a long time. Even a simpleton could understand it, if only theyβd listen.
God I miss grown up, well-read, pragmatic and convincing leaders.
Quite extraordinarily, leading politicians, including Kier Starmer and Rachel Reeves have in the last few days returned to talking about the country maxing out its credit card, just as David Cameron did in 2015. This is utterly absurd. A threadβ¦
Average annual UK domestic energy bill has today increased to Β£1,928.

Energy company profits have soared multifold, fuelled inflation/poverty.

So, bit of a rant π§΅:
Like many, I am deeply concerned at the direction of this Govt. in so many ways. The gaslighting and cruelty is off the scale. I do have bigger concerns however regarding a background agenda and the manipulation towards it.

Private Healthcare has One remit, and One remit only:
To make the maximum amount of profit from your case.
They don't care if you can't afford it.
They don't care if you go without.
It's brutal and it's heartless.
Making a Profit out of someone's ill health is Immoral.
