Reminder that, despite any Trump posturing, we’re actually doing this because the US wants us to. The US military doesn’t like the current legal uncertainty of their base. Handing the islands over to Mauritius solves that uncertainty.

It hurts to agree with the orange wanker but on this occasion he’s right. And it’s also not just stupid to hand them over but to do so in the manner we are, paying out of the nose…. The entire thing is baffling.

He’s correct on this one. Labour should not follow up on what the Tories were doing.

Can the London, Cayman, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, and Paris hedge funds rugpull this cunts families investments already? I am getting tired of hearing him speak.

He literally fucking said he backed it last year. Looking at the entire vomit of a tweet, he links it to Greenland so clearly Farage, Miller and co have whispered in his ear to link the two, I’m fucking sick of this.

Trump is an act of great stupidity… Guess it takes one to know one.

Trump calling anything stupid can only be the result of him looking in a mirror.

Didn’t he back this deal to go ahead? Feels like someone is whispering in his ear about this

Labour are a government set for a post war peace boom. They are far to by the book and nice for this chaotic situation

Well, there you have it. I actually think Starmer has handled Trump well, but Trump is clearly losing it. If there’s a positive to take, it might be that this allows us to drop any pretences now and to treat the US as the enemy they’re becoming. The stuff he’s just been posting about Greenland shows he’s not going to let this drop and are not the product of a sound mind. Â

Funny he was willing to back it months ago until suddenly the UK and Europe clearly says NO about something. He doesn’t care.

Wrong, it’s an act of betrayal by Starmer to help out a mate.

Clearly the demented orange cunt doesn’t remember backing this move last year.
Dolive90 on
On the surface the deal seems a ridiculous act and waste of money and resources
But I do recall Starmer chastising Badenoch at PMQs for calling out against this stating surprise given she has access to the ‘same security briefings..’
This is one of those where there is a non-zero chance there is a good reason this deal is being made as it is and probably a good reason we dont know why
This might be the case or it might not be, but blindly parroting support or disdain for the action without full view of the details might not be the best move

i won’t be paying attention to anything trump does unless he carries out a special military operation in greenland – hopefully he’s just posturing.

The guy that wants Denmark to hand over the sovereignty of Greenland!? That guy!?

it’s all about hiding the Epstein files.
You can analyse the Greenland situation as much as you like but he has successfully distracted everyone from the files that “would hurt my friends”

He’s not wrong. I don’t get why we don’t just sell it to him and wash our hands of it.
We get rid of the islands and get a couple of billion for doing so. Rather than PAY billions for doing so.

I have to admit, it seems incredibly odd to me that over the past few days a bunch of Reform politicians have been bringing up the Chagos Islands in their public statements and saying Trump should be focussing on that instead of Greenland, then all of a sudden Trump comes out with a statement like that.
Once again shows that they’re drinking from the exact same spigot.

The same deal that Trump backed?
He doesn’t even remember that he backed the deal. The USA pushed for this and now he’s having a tantrum because no one wants to support him invading Greenland.

The lease is up. Its not like the UK owns it, they have rented it for 99 years.
For a real estate guy, Trump sure has a grasp on how that works, no?
> Today, the United States welcomed the historic agreement between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Mauritius on the future of the British Indian Ocean Territory—specifically, the Chagos Archipelago.
> We commend both the United Kingdom and Mauritius for their leadership, vision, and commitment to ensure that Diego Garcia remains fully operational for the duration of this agreement. We look forward to working closely with both governments to strengthen our collaboration in support of regional peace and stability.
>Following a comprehensive interagency review, the Trump Administration determined that this agreement secures the long-term, stable, and effective operation of the joint U.S.-UK military facility at Diego Garcia. This is a critical asset for regional and global security. President Trump expressed his support for this monumental achievement during his meeting with Prime Minister Starmer at the White House…

Kind of hilarious that Trump is having foreign leaders kidnapped and sabre rattling about taking other countries’ territory and our government is behaving like international law has any substanceÂ

The fact we handed over valuable territory for essentially being woke is exactly what’s wrong.

Well comrades, I thought I was going to get to 3 full weeks of the year without agreeing with Trump. He was doing so well! Threatening Greenland, tariffs on allies, increased militarisation at home – I really thought I’d oppose his views all month!
Then he goes and does something as sensible as opposing this deal. Does it now mean that the only people in the world who love it work for Sir Keir and President Xi?
