I'm not sure the Conservative, Labour or Liberal Democratic Parties would publicly express any preference on the candidates in an overseas election.

PHOENIX — Plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed in Arizona over alleged ballot issues stemming from Sharpie use abruptly filed to dismiss their suit without prejudice Saturday.
The Trump campaign, the Arizona Democratic Party and the Republican National Committee had all gotten involved in the case, which fanned claims of widespread ballot problems affecting Republican voters, claims repeatedly denied by local and state election officials.

I wonder if Nigel will have to pay his own hotel bill now? (he’s in the USA as a "journalist’, but doesn’t say who for).

Trump has consistently downplayed the pandemic and its effects on America, and held events that had no attempt to comply with his own government's recommendations.
That it ended up impacting his supporters was not unexpected, but I thought that the Tweet showed just how much Trump didn't care about that at all.

Humour has no place in the new 'Populism'. It's even frowned on in CF
