First Lady Melania Trump is suing a British newspaper, saying a defamatory article it later retracted deprived her of the chance to launch a lucrative brand of clothing, shoes, jewelry and perfume.

The $150 million suit against the publisher of the Daily Mail accused the London tabloid of causing "tremendous harm" to her reputation and making it almost impossible to take advantage of “major business opportunities” available “for a multi-year term during which plaintiff is one of the most photographed women in the world.”

Brexit thread has been a bit quiet for a few days now (where's y'a been Atilla?) - So how's about this for a proposition:

"The main driver of their demise and of the popular discontent seems to be the bad impact of EU austerity economics and the Euro on their economies."

I think he's got a point. 🙂

Yes, he does. The trick, however, is to recognize that the source of the problems which led to the alleged need for austerity in the first place is the wealthy AND to avoid being misled into placing the responsibility anywhere else (e.g., the poor).

There is a game called Let's You And Him Fight, which the oligarchs, plutocrats, and autocrats know quite well. They have been playing it for decades.

And here we are.

Don't feel the need to post here anymore but I had to pop in and agree wholeheartedly with Db's post. Cromwell had his chance and he blew it with his teams desire for every one to give up having fun ( drinking and singing etc). So in came Charles mark 2 and allowed boozing and singing etc and the serfs were happy again. Nothing has changed since then.
 
Brexit fiasco continues and will do so for good many decades.

UK is not cool Britannia anymore but more cold Britannia.

UK foreign policy and EU exit is about as confused and in conflict as one can imagine.

Redwood writes about every party including Syriza and Pasok, mixing it up with right wing factions, typical BS politician he is, with some anti EU soundings as if it all makes coherent sense. Guys another rodent who'll blame all countries issues as originating from the EU.


As mentioned before UK has gone from colloborating with her EU neighbours to one of competing and as per some circles, her whole policy rests with people rubbing hands at the prospect of EU fragmenting.

Courting with the Great Trump has seen the quickest invite and withdrawal of that invite anywhere to be seen in the history of the World. It's not clear to me who's screwing who, but I reckon UK got wind of being shafted by the US pretty quickly to pull the shutters down after momentary cringe inducing hand holding.

It is now envisaged, Trump's invite may be served when Parliament is in recess and Queen may receive the Great Trump somewhere up North as far away from London as pos. That spells somewhere near a golf course in Scotland.

I'm sure rejection from the Indians coupled with a rejection of the Chinese to build our Nuclear Power Plant stations and now less than cosy relationship with the Great tramp, our Brexit position is stronger than ever before... 😏


Chickens will be coming home to roost soon enough...


The blame game will then turn to the EU again, because they will be shown as punishing us instead of negotiating their terms.

We are nice coz we negotiate and they are punishers because they don't agree with our favourable terms.

Let's see if Redwood can pull that one off with the EU and if his lucky may get a palm of soap to wash his hands clean of the EU.

I heard a rumour that they going to put the North of England unemployed on a fast track job creation scheme to refurbish Hadrian's Wall, and that Trump will be received in the open moorland just north of it. This would have the benefit of deterring the rampaging crowds from London while letting him think he is in his ancestors' homeland (certainly could have conned George Bush) - and we know he likes walls. The wall-building unemployed would probably be kept on in the guise of a friendly rent-a-crowd who could be paid similar rates to those of film extras. I also understand that the plan is to put Bercow (if they ever get rid of him) in charge of the wall-building chain gang.

That's fine!

The right can try and do as much as they want. Same goes for USA.

I have faith in the good many people who'll see through these politicians who are only jumping on the bandwagon trying to claim power.

As always they'll be just as bad as the far left socialists in their abuse of power.

You can be sure though with France and the UK both parties will be at each others throats much like the US trying to out do their patriotism placing their country first and whilst taking international trade down the gutter.


So many people in the US regretting what they've got them selves into right now. Including good many who voted for Trump. Will be the same in UK soon enough.


MILAN, Feb 16 (Reuters) - The European Union is likely to select a new home for the bloc's London-based medicines regulator by June, according to the mayor of Milan, one of several cities vying to host the organisation after Brexit.


The European Medicines Agency (EMA), which employs 890 staff, acts as a one-stop-shop for drug approvals across the EU, but its future location is unclear after Britain's decision to leave the bloc.

"There is a sort of urgency. It will depend on the final resolution with the UK (on Brexit) but according to our information, probably in April they will decide to define that. In a couple of months they will choose the final destination," Giuseppe Sala told a news conference in Milan.

He said it would then take a couple of years before the agency actually moved.

The EMA is the largest EU body in Britain and is a prize for rival cities seeking to attract high-skilled jobs.

Other countries vying to host the agency include Denmark, Sweden, Spain, France, Ireland and Poland. As well as creating jobs, the EMA also has the potential to act as a hub for pharmaceuticals, one of Europe's most important industries.

Sala was flanked at the briefing by Economy Minister Pier Carlo Padoan who, along with Italy’s prime minister and president, has joined Milan's lobbying effort to persuade both the EMA and also the European Banking Authority to relocate there from London.

Asked if Milan had already received positive signals over the EMA, Sala said: "We know that many cities in Europe are competing. It’s difficult to say now ... It’s clear to everybody that it’s a political issue."

A spokeswoman for the EMA in London declined to comment on the timing of any move, noting that the location of the agency after Brexit would be determined by EU member states by common agreement.

The uncertainty surrounding Europe's equivalent of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is a concern for drugmakers, who worry that Europe's drug approval system might face disruption and potential delays.

There is particular anxiety about relations between the EMA and a future separate British drugs regulator. Drug company executives are braced for Britain to quit the pan-European medicines regulator as part of Brexit, but they want the country to continue to work closely with the EMA by agreeing reciprocal rules for drug approvals.

It's like I said months ago. What we are witnessing is a resurgence of tribalism. When large groups get to the point where they see minority interests being put ahead of everyone's general interest, then they kick out at those who have lost sight of the bigger picture.

France is typical of a country which has become fragmented and lost sight of it's identity. Anyway, there isn't much to debate. The direction of travel is clear and there is nothing the liberal elites can do about it.
