I can’t imagine they’d turn down an offer to do the grunt work nobody else wants, hoofing leaflets about the place or whatever. And for the Labour Party hacks, getting to treat another country’s electoral process like it’s one massive theme park is doubtless a dream come true. Everyone’s a winner.

Re: US Election 2024

It doesn't look right to me that the Labour Government's Head of Operations is drumming up paid election support for a particular candidate in another Country, no matter how Sir Keir Starmer tries to sugar coat it .

What's your feeling about Farage getting involved in Trump's campaign? I'm against foreign nationals getting hands-on in foreign countries' elections.

They aren't paid though. It's only allowed as long as they are volunteering.

Ex-MI6 Chief has said a similar thing. He thinks we will get caught between the EU, China and the US on trade battles.

I think Trump will exact his revenge on the UK for what the labour party have said and done

Yup, supporting Ukraine won't have gone done well with Trump.

We don't know who organised Farage's trips to the USA do we? Could have been Reform.

Don't worry, Lammy began the crawling back in May!
Quote:
Donald Trump is "often misunderstood" over his commitment to Nato, shadow foreign secretary David Lammy has said during a goodwill mission to the US.

Despite "shocking" comments about European allies, Mr Lammy said the ex-president's time in the White House had led to a better-funded Nato alliance.

Mr Lammy previously called Mr Trump a "neo-Nazi sympathising sociopath".

But he said Labour would work with a future Trump administration, in a speech at a Republican think tank.

I agree but Nigel Farage isn't in the UK Government. The actions of a senior member of Labour staff reflect upon the Government and that could affect us all.

When will Labour do something right like, for example, dealing with the flotilla of Boaty McBoatfaces or robbing pensioners, oh wait, they sorted out the pensioners on Day 1. They like a soft target.

Sir Keir still thinks Rishi Sunak is Prime Minister.

Trump is an Anglophile, just throw the royal family at him, state visit and banquet, butter him up like a massive Christmas Turkey and he’ll be very forgiving.
