Summary
Stephen Moore, a senior economic adviser to US president-elect Donald Trump, urged the UK to adopt the US “free enterprise” model over Europe’s “more socialist” system, suggesting it would enhance the Trump administration’s “willingness” to pursue a UK-US trade deal.
Moore also defended US agricultural practices and Trump’s proposed 10% blanket import tariff, noting possible exemptions for allies like the UK.
UK leaders, including Keir Starmer, face pressure to balance trade ties with both the EU and US, with figures like Peter Mandelson advocating dual trade agreements amid Brexit challenges.
Ohh… the US economy where people need 3 jobs to afford groceries and where health insurance only covers expenses if you aren’t too sick?
Americans talking about socialism is like teenagers talking about sex
Zero clue
It’s time for another episode of “Everything I Don’t Like Is Socialism” with Donnie Temper Tantrum!
Poor can work at the Mar-a-Lago for food or die in a gutter. That’s the American way.
Uh, Socialism please.
“Well we’re all out of Socialism. We only had three bits and we didn’t expect such a rush. So whaddaya want?”
What, so my choice is “or US free enterprise”?
Oh …well… then I’ll have the chicken.
“Tastes of human sir. Would you like a white wine?”
I don’t mind working with the US even with Trump leading, but the EU is clearly a natural partner. They’re right at our doorstep.
The US seems perfectly happy with socialism … for its corporate sector
Privatised profits, socialised losses.
Trumps knowledge of the EU is solely what Farage tells him. Or should I say, whispers to him after rubbing his belly.
What is more worrying is what Trump thinks of the EU. This guy is a threat to democracy and international law.
And the worst is that much of the democratic party is shifting more to the right in their pursuit of voters.
This world is completely screwed with politicians like Trump in power.
Yeah, of the world’s leaders vast majority of them are dictators or wannabe dictators. Trump, Putin, Xi Jinping, Modi, Netanyahu, Erdoğan, Orban and the list goes on.
And the worst is that much of the democratic party is shifting more to the right in their pursuit of voters.
In there pursuit of being a more effective controlled opposition. Voters didn’t ask for this. Harris ran a conservative campaign and loss on that. Don’t let the democrats blame the left for their loss.
“C’mon, guys, be fascist like us!”
Cancers metastasize.
It seems wise to always to agree with whatever these guys say, if there’s no binding language involved. So yes, sure, the EU is literally Stalin, handsome mister Trump, sir.
They’ll choose Trumpism. Starmer inherited the legacy of the Brexit referendum, and if he’s seen as veering towards the European approach, the oligarch-owned press will have his guts for garters and Nigel Farage in No. 10. As such, he’ll have no choice but to make a speech acknowledging this and rejecting the European approach in principle.
I really really hope you’re wrong.
Mob of bullies. These guys came into power last time telling people, “we won’t tell you how to live, and you won’t tell us how to live.” Look at em now. LOL

I’m sure they’re hanging on his every word.
