Nothing will change so long as virtually all our electronic and allied consumer goods are sourced from China. Go round your home, and you will find it is full up with goods made in China. If you are not prepared to give them up, or find locally made alternatives that will undoubtedly cost you more, nothing will change..
I would say that the American people have lost. As Joe Rogan said regarding the choice of the corrupt, war mongering and increasingly senile Biden as Democrat nominee: ‘The Democrats have made morons of us all’.

Why did no white Biden alternative get a black man to be their putative vice president while running for the Democratic nomination?

“So London is bound to lean more liberal, more rule-bending ““ and, in a world that valorises ‘open’ traits, more sure of its own worth than the more culturally ‘closed’ provinces.”
More rule-bending? Yet their philosophy, world-view and religion is so often no more than Political-Correctness, one of the most closed and conformist ways of living ever foisted on people.
“These millions might consider whether it is time to vote with their feet. After all, theirs is the talent and energy. Theirs is the future.”
Amen to that!

Creepy Joe Biden never really seemed to be altogether there. Years ago, he spoke to an American audience about the most famous battle in Serbian history, the Battle of Kosovo in 1389, calling it the Battle of Pristina in 1388. It’s like he referred to the Battle of Sussex in 1065 for the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Now he is clearly senile and quite incapable of holding any political office, let alone the presidency. Did Bernie Sanders actually fail to win the battle of ideas, or was he unwilling to go for the jugular, attacking Biden as senile and incompetent, as he should have done? Polls taken in the Democratic primaries showed that there were solid majorities in the Democratic base for single-payer health care, so it is sad in a way that Bernie lost and Creepy Joe will be running against Trump as the status quo defender of Obamacare. I suspect a lot of Sanders’s support came from people who thought his nuttier ideas would never have a hope of getting legislated, but did believe he might be able to enact a single-payer health care system if he were president. Peter Franklin writes: “a less off-putting Republican than Donald Trump could make a populist, yet bridge-building, offer to hard-pressed Americans of all ethnicities.” Agreed that Trump would never go for a single-payer health care system, but next time there may be a Republican candidate who will make a case for it. The COVID-19 epidemic shows just how problematic the current US system is.

London’s Millennials “¦(9 April 2020) ‘0 comments’? I saw several before I logged in. Anyway, if people settle in a park or beach, in order to ensure you can move around and be at least 2m away from them and their sneezes and coughs ,they need to be spaced about 6m. That means taking up nearly 10 times the space they would if walking on a street or promenade. That has to be unfair to somebody. So keep on trucking, folks. Oops! Bad metaphor, remembering the foot-and-mouth epidemic in 2001. Keep driving on. Oh no, not that either! Who know where they’ve been, or are going? But the great affair is to move.

Uncle Joe as POTUS ? O M G. This creep is as genuine as an 11 dollar bill. The only question I can’t answer, is who would be worse, Uncle Joe or Crooked Hillary. Both would fumble into an all-in war with Russia or China, or both, both would just do what the Rothschild / Rockerfeller cartel wants. O M G.

I do go round my home. I live in France. Buy local. Buy French if you you live in France. Buy British if you live there.
French electronics? I doubt it.
