There are only four weeks of the world's oil reserves (emergency strategic reserves left), which is the issue. Everything else is just noise.
And Putin? The killing of Semyon Skrepetsky?
Presidential policies organized around financial calendars the best market anyone has seen for day-to-day manipulation. I don’t think it’s been better since Clinton opened up free trade.
9:36 😂 Andy. dark divided politics in the USA you mean kind of like your politics in the uk and how your people are burning peoples houses down right now and riots kind of like that😂
Labour about to tear itself apart and slider further left!
The more Vance is involved in talks with Iran the less sure Trump is of completing a deal. Vance is there to take the blame and with Netanyahu refusing to backdown in Lebanon this is not over despite the markets and Trump wanting to believe it is.
The UK needs to replace Reeves. For any technical skills she may have she lacks any political common sense and has made numerous avoidable mistakes.
This is all on Trump, not Vance.
Trump is the president after all , he is responsible
Stand up to this Qatari intrigue and so called “deal”.
The Republican Party should not allow aging Donald and ignorant JD get the US into such a horrible capitulation deal with this untrustworthy ideological terrorists cult.
JD Vance certainly is inept and ignorant when it comes to international events, history and politics and Trump has certainly displayed deteriorating judgement lately!!!!
You're totally correct. Brexit was never wanted by the PM's from both Labour and the Tories (Lab-cons), admittedly so.
