Possibly a trial run for what he plans for the US in the near future?

Re: President Trump 2.0
I wonder if the UK's Poundland Trump will put membership in Reform UK's next manifesto? Trump will be disappointed if Farage doesn't.

Re: President Trump 2.0
Just when you think Trump couldn’t be a bigger chocolate starfish, he exceeds expectations…

Trump diminishes Nato record by claiming troops avoided Afghan front line
President Trump has angered veterans by falsely claiming European troops stayed “off the front lines” in Afghanistan, despite hundreds from Britain and other allied countries dying in combat.
In an interview with Fox News on Thursday, Trump appeared to mock the role that the Europeans played during the conflict, saying: “We’ve never needed them. They’ll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan … and they did, they stayed a little back, a little off the front lines.”

Tell that to the families of those who died or were maimed, or to those who used to line the streets of Wootton Bassett when the bodies were brought home…

Farage is going to have to come to terms with reality.

Trump is simply an internet troll, nothing more, nothing less.

Re: President Trump 2.0
Starmer should privately admonish Trump for Trump's remarks on our forces' action in Afghanistan, rather than play to the British press for internal point scoring.
The relationship with USA is important for Britain and if Trump can be directed to vent his wrath on the EU and not us, so much the better.
That said, there is a potential reality to face if Trump ends up doubling down on his madness. In that case, a breach between the UK and USA could become more likely and then we would have to chuck our lot in with Europe.
Then there are the trillions of $$ worth of US bonds held by Europe. Id the USA economy goes further out of control, a world recession is on the cards and there will be nothing we nor the EU can do to lessen the havoc that would ensue.
A bad egg hardly covers a description of Trump.

Re: President Trump 2.0
U.K. Political Party Leaders comments on Trump’s remarks
Starmer - "wrong to diminish the role of Nato troops, including British forces, in Afghanistan following the 9/11 attacks on the US"."
Badenoch - "Donald Trump's comments are flat-out nonsense - British, Canadian, and Nato troops fought and died alongside the US for 20 years. This is a fact, not opinion. Their sacrifice deserves respect not denigration."
Davey - "457 British troops lost their lives in Afghanistan. Trump avoided military service five times. How dare he question their sacrifice."
Farage -

Oh definitely.
He spouts stuff that most (intelligent) people know is just made up bluster, if not downright lies . . . and gets the reaction he wanted to feed on.
