"Reasonably Dishonest" is acceptable.

Crazy that this hasn't leaked after all this time.

Even if the politically switched-on people care to define the difference, the vast majority of Europeans will receive it as another confrontationally aggressive dismissal.

We’ll live the rest of our lives with a world where our closest allies do not rely on us, do not trust us, and do not see doing business with it as “safer” than the alternatives. All because a coalition of billionaires and would-be autocrats spent years convincing a group of people that a return to gilded age inequities is how you save western civilization….and those people will watch their own homes burn to the ground before they’ll ever admit that they were wrong.

Dunno who said it but the quote is

America always does the right thing in the end




Let’s hope so.

America has never done that. Not really.
Internally maybe. McCarthy n all that.
But never in a geopolitical sense.

The Telegraph: British nuclear weapons can protect Canada against Trump, says Trudeau party candidate

Canada should seek closer ties with Britain because its nuclear weapons can help protect the country against Donald Trump, a Liberal party leader running to replace Justin Trudeau has said.

Chrystia Freeland, the former deputy prime minister under Mr Trudeau, said that US president is “clearly threatening our sovereignty” with his campaign to absorb Canada as the 51st state of America.

In order to “guarantee our security”, Ms Freeland said she would build closer security partnerships with European Nato allies and “I would be sure that France and Britain were there, who possess nuclear weapons”.

Sovereignty?
lol
Canada has none. Their head of state is the British monarch. Thousands of miles away.
And he has no power to order such a thing.

The Canadians might actually be dumber than the yanks. If that’s even possible.

Got my European health insurance card today. Entitled to free healthcare anywhere in the European Union.

https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/t ... ance-card/

EU and Europe
You can use your European Health Insurance Card in any European Union or European Economic Area (EEA) country and in Switzerland. Currently, the EEA comprises of the 27 member states of the European Union together with Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein.

As Andorra and Monaco are not part of the EU or EEA, your EHIC is not accepted there. You should get private health insurance instead.

Find out where you can use your EHIC and how to access healthcare abroad.

UK
If you are an Irish citizen, you have access to healthcare under the Common Travel Area while visiting the UK. However, other EU citizens should continue to use the EHIC, which is still accepted in the UK.

Outside the EU
If you are travelling outside the EU/EEA, you should get private health insurance instead.

Serious question -- is Qanon still a thing? I haven't heard much about it this time around.

Shifted to telegram and signal etc

Cos it’s ’encrypted’ apparently. It isn’t. It’s ran and funded and monitored by all the very worst elements in the current shitshow.

Seems like it's just mainstream now. Fighting the globalists is all part of the narrative for Trump supporters.

Yeah, you don't know what your talking about. The fact Canada is still tied to the monarchy has almost zero real world implications. Canada is completely independent.

I am Q.

lol dime. The monarchy doesn’t even have any real power in Britain, why would they in Canada?

Maybe this is what Zelenskyy warned us of when he said “you have nice ocean and don't feel now, but you will feel it in the future”

You didn’t read Bis post above mine (I don’t blame you) some Canadian politician suggesting the uk go to bat for Canada.

You should probably read it back.

If you’re unaware. The British pm handed Trump an invitation from King Charles the other day in the oval. another state visit to the uk.

King Charles is the head of state of Canada.

The country Trump wants to make the 51st state

There’s a king in the way though
