So refute it. That's how it works. Someone makes a claim, someone else makes a counterclaim. Discuss, research, debate. Refute and verify. Kick the ball, not the shins. Try it.

 

No thanks 

Life ain’t that tedious yet

Looks like Der Starmer has had a change of heart

So what is The Rapist going to fail to do next week?

 

Last week, Tariffs and failed to lower US consumer prices. Reports (not many) out there that prices are starting to rise to account for the additional taxes. Landrover Jaguar temporarily pulled out of US market. Didn't lower prices.... except the stock market but don't think he meant that.

 

Week before Trumpy is flogging Musks Teslas, Tesla sales wordwide are a fraction what they were, are dropping in the US, billions of the Tesla share price. Didn't increase sales.

 

Week before, Ukraine ceasefire. Hasn't happened, Russia, in his inner circle of besties, are not bowing to his demands. Trump says he's beginning to get angry. Ceasefire didn't happened.

 

Week before, release all hostages in Gaza else all hell will break loose. Hostages still there, hell has been contained. Ceasefire looks dubious.

 

 

So what isn't he going to do next week?

Same question reversed, what's Starmer the farmer harmer done this week that's newsworthy.

 

After the recent news I'm wondering if jrm is going to put his name on the ballot.

What's the point, it all descends into nonsense bs posts from the trump hating obsessives.

 

All k see repeatedly is you lot shouting how bad trump is, yet can't see through the MSM bs and see what the end goal is.

 

Keep up your globalisation bs and it'll be no manufacturing or industry outside of the far east and china.

 

Please Mr Mao can I have a new iPad without being turned into a bonnie blue for the privilege.

No, I can see his goal, he has stated it, but I don't think he is the man who can deliver it. He doesn't have the attention span to see it through, as soon as the protests get a bit louder he'll jump on the popularity bandwagon that he craves. 3 1/2 years is too short a span to turn things his way and in that time he is going to hurt the US consumer, his voters. He won't want to end his tenure to be seen as the President that tanked the Republican vote.

 

 

As for manufacturing in the Asia, for the next 20 years this is true, and then I see Africa getting a bite at it, will be the manufacturing hub for the world. Green energy you see in Africa, solar, as oil runs down and out those with a lot of power resources will rise to the surface... which is not good news for the US and 'drill baby drill' - those cancer causing windmills will be a necessity. Till then though wages are the key to manufacturing and nothing we can do in the west without a massive upheaval and lower wages.

Electronics manufacturing even 15 years ago was at parity to UK pricing even on low cost items, that's why the raspberry pie was made here by Sony.

 

Manufacturing in Africa won't happen, partly down to corrupt especially in south Africa.

[Steven P]

... assembled in Wales by Sony, chips in recent years have been produced overseas.

 

 

There are many countries in Africa that are not corrupt of course, Rwanda for one. All it takes is a bit of a push, cheap wages, plentiful solar energy are the requirement to surpass China - given that The West send out the designs their education (universities and colleges) can wait till the orders are rolling in - like China did.

 

Like I suggest, when the oil runs out, electrical power will be king. Africa will be there. US, and the west, with high wages and the US dependence on oil, will struggle to compete with manufacturing. They will however keep Trumps tariff inflated prices.

Not sure of the chipset manufacturer, but they made a lot of the silicon locally, including NXP domestically.

 

No chance of African manufacturing, you're green obsession will not work as oil is not running out any time soon.
