    What a ridiculous thing to say
    You don't think the economy of the USA is in a better place than the UK?

      The election results speak for themselves, Trump had a clean sweep and he also won all of the swing states. Happy voters don't return those kind of results. Starmer also had an overwhelming victory, so the comparison is valid with disgruntled voters on both sides of the Atlantic, although the Conservatives would probably get back in if an election was held tomorrow

        The economy not working for the masses is different argument altogether. I am sure a cabinet of billionaires will fix that though. Sustained growth, high wages, etc put the USA in a completely different league to us.

        Trump appears to have burned his base before even taking office, Starmer/Reeves didn't even manage that.

        Part of me does wonder if Elon's recent outbursts are more about deflecting the attention of the average Joe who is about to get ****ed than anything else.

          I'm on the fence regarding Trump carrying out all of his election promises. Actions speak louder than words as we found out with Starmer.

            Good luck with that, we can’t even build a 100 mile railway line between our 2 biggest cities.
            Why do we need a 100 mile line between Cardiff and Swansea?

              It's only about 40 miles, 100 would take us to Milford Haven (or the Irish Sea)

                It would make it a lot easier for the lemmings to jump into the sea
