Most situations, regardless of how bleak and dismal they may appear, if you look really hard you can see a silver lining and when it comes to Trump Mk.2, my hope is that it will be an undoing and eventually reversal of the madness that is Brexit.
Trump's plans to slap tariffs on imports from the rest of the world includes Britain which should only push us towards a reunification with our European allies because in the upcoming trade war Britain would be all but impotent against the US.
The EU has the required heft to hit back at Trump's America the US and cause it economic pain but the little Englander's and racists who believed the lies from the likes of Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage that
Britain would bloom once it was outside of the European Union has proved to be a fallacy, our economy has shrunk, the much vaunted global trade deals have failed to materialise and our standing on the World stage has diminished so accepting what we had was fair better than we have now, we should be scurrying back to the European bosom.
After the messy way we left and the vitriol spat towards them from the last Government, it means that we may have a long road to European acceptance but Keir Starmer could start sending out messages that we would be willing to negotiate now because in the age of Trump, hard-headed, practical common sense needs to come to the fore and that would be rejoining the largest single market on the planet and ending the huge mistake of Brexit.

you don't get it. the eu has multiple comorbidities: russia is now your problem, not ours; US interest in defending europe; declining economic significance of the eu; a pending reemergence of pre-WW2 regional conflicts (germany v france v italy); a declining germany which has been the eu anchor for at least 25 years; demographic issues.
the uk would be much smarter to align with the US, Canada, and Mexico.
and the eu has nearly zero economic heft to hit back at the US. it is hilarious that you think that. hilarious.
put aside your leftist blinders and look at reality including: the future of manufacturing; the future of agriculture; the future of energy; the future of AI; the future of trade.
maybe you read "the economist" too much...
Why would any nation want to pair up with a Trump run American??? They would have to be crackers!
like i said, you have to get past your leftist blinders. even if you were correct about trump, and you are not, that is over in 4 years...
plus, regardless of who the president is, and regardless of which party is in power, the US is 2x or 3x more influential economically. not just now. for many decades.
the US is still rising. the eu peaked and will decline more. much more.
i mean, not even the biden regime could really crush our economy. even though, there were many days and events when it seemed like that was the goal of the left... well, actually, that is the stated goal of many of the leftists in the US - bernie sanders, the black lives matter organization, the green new deal, AOC, harris (before she coerced her way into the presidential election). remake the US into a socialist nation... brilliant.
try getting your information from multiple view points...
Blinded by your ideology but oh well, that’s your look out.
i clearly have biases and i'm very aware of them.
my studies since circa 2000, include numerous college degrees, numerous classes online and in person at harvard, mit, univ of texas, and stanford. professional certifications, conferences, and readings (economics, politics, geopolitics, history, biographies, etc.) have been to become aware of my biases and the supporting assumptions and beliefs. my intent was/is to turn assumptions into beliefs or disbeliefs based on an understanding of nature and human nature.
it is the reason i read your blog, and other leftists blogs, and read/watch cnn, msnbc, ny times, abe, cbs, nbc, bbc.
my single biggest bias is that leftists foolishly think they can re-engineer human nature.
my second biggest bias is that leftists are willing to use law/force to impose their views on human nature if they can't change human nature.
'i (sic) clearly have biases and i'm very aware of them.' You certainly do and they blind you, always have.
im blinded by truth... versus myth
I figured out the solution for you Lucyp - you should convert all your cash and near cash to bitcoin and gold!!
