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.

    Isn’t Afd the far right German party in power currently? Brothers of Italy seems to hate trans people or at least Giorgia Meloni does.

    This dude’s a piece of shit grifter and treating listeners like marks.

      Afd gathered significant votes, but they’re far from in power in the country. They are in power in one… you could say county, but they’re fucking up as we speak.
