Nigel Farage -- the gift that keeps on giving!

Good old Nigel is now proclaiming his intention to run as PM in 2029.   Good for him, I wish him luck with that.  The bottom line is that in Nigel's small brain, the Conservative Party is already dead, and Reform will take over.   Maybe but never underestimate voters' ultimate decision when they are in the polling station.   Of course, the Conservative Party is entirely at fault for the Brexit fiasco.   That Cameron still has a voice in the party tells you how desperate the party has become.  However, confusing long-time supporters of the Party with an electorate adrift forever is really to misunderstand how people behave.   

Nigel is looking for votes across the nation, he will go to Wales and Ireland and also Scotland to sell his brand, and the new "real" conservative party.   However, and this is the important bit, in a country those who have the gold rule, and today neither Scotland nor Wales are net providers to the union.   The hard cold and mean truth is that both Scotland and Wales need Great Britain more than Great Britain needs them.  Scottish nationals know that Europe is not the panacea that is Westminster and have probably already been told that to rejoin the club would be very expensive, if even possible.

Still, Nigel will make promises he had no intention of keeping (it's a thing for good old Nigel) and for the low-information voters, it may be enough to peel them away from the Conservatives of the Scottish National Party, who knows.

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

Donald Trump‘s bad bargain

 The entire of 2023 and 2024 when Donald Trump was running for the White House, his mantra was no war, that the Ukraine conflict would be resolved in a day, and that he would do everything not to involve America and war. How the world has changed! He finds himself facing three conflicts; Ukraine, still going on almost 5 months after he became president. Gaza, an unspeakable crime against humanity, is obviously going to go all the way to its bitter end. And finally, Israel’s attack against Iran. It’s important to note, that Benjamin Netanyahu first indicated at the United nation that the Iranian were 3 to 5 years away from having the nuclear bomb. He made that statement in 1995. Therefore, no one is surprised that he uses the same two lines every so often. It’s entirely possible, that 30 years after he first announced it, that Iran has finally developed the bomb. It’s also remarkable that Iran, local power has been destroyed, from Yemen, to Syria, via Lebanon and Gaza to small exten...

TACO again, but worst!

 Donald Trump got the rare earth metals that he had thrown away on April 2, liberation day as he called it. What did the Chinese get in exchange? The whole deal, is on the wrap right now. But let’s be clear. It’s the Chinese that have the upper hand.Some of the materials made by the Chinese, are simply unavailable anywhere else. suspicions are that the Chinese got the high-end chips that they lost under Biden. Tariffs will probably return to the level of April 1, and in the end Donald and his friends got nothing for it. It gets worse, Chinese exports to United States are down 40%. The Chinese have found new markets, I probably never gonna buy American grain again. Once again, Donald Trump proved he’s a great negotiator. He got absolutely nothing for his Showmanship. He told the world, that everyone would come and kiss his ass, instead they’re laughing At him. There’s no joke about Donald Trump, a 25 and inherited a huge fortune and proceeded to make it a small one. Bottom line, the...
