How old is max now? 12?

Laughs in European

There you go 😂.

And yes I agree. I don’t think we should either. But sadly this isn’t how the British government thinks. We’d be far better aligning with European interests and slowly extricating ourselves from US interference.

Christ alive if Lammy is involved this is going to end in misery.

That no moon.

Yes but put yourself in the spineless shoes of Starmer. Ten billion from the public via the BBC in exchange for much more lucrative trade deals. Net win.

This is how these people think.

Trumpet is going to hold up trade deals now. Just to be petulant. Starmer is going to have a quiet word in the BBC’s ear.

They’re more raging against Clinton’s administration. That and the four to the floor disco beat.

Don’t worry, the EU would never let this happen…

They’ll do what Russia does with their online services. Have a registration scheme with noncompliant VPNs being outright banned.

Simple when you know which dictator to copy.

That seems the most sensible way of doing things. Apple probably doesn’t want that outcome though because then they’ll be liable for the implementation rather than, for example, the social networks or websites.

Always gotta be thinking about the Apple shareholders.

Oi m8! U got a loisence for that erection?

An interesting article. I hadn’t heard of MMT before this. Well… at least not stated in such a way.

Spend too little while resources sit idle (unemployed workers, empty factories) and you condemn the economy to stagnation.

So is this suggesting that we should rapidly ramp up spending? And that will bring the unemployed back to work? I think that’s rather simplistic, no? People are unemployed for a multitude of reasons, not simply that there isn’t enough work to go around.

I mean… sure they can both be true. But it’s a rather non sequitur comment given the article, right?

I know it’s the Canary which is usually a shite rag but even they managed to name correctly the suspected politician at the heart of this story and it was… checks notes… David Cameron that well known “Labour” politician.

Well we look forward to the democrats being an effective opposition. Oh wait… 🫠

Don’t worry about it! The Democrats will oppose this and get it kicked out for being un American. And if they don’t succeed then all you have to do is wait until they get back into office and they’ll executive order it straight outta town in an instant…

Right?

and maybe that the US isn’t the greatest country in the world in all fields.

I think that’s why they want our “high value data fields”… ☺️
