So. That went well, then. A day after Keir Starmer gently pointed out that the US would be wrong to seize Greenland and that a period of calm diplomacy was needed, Donald Trump goes mad. Again. Having already rubbished the Norwegian prime minister for not awarding him the Nobel peace prize, the US president took aim at the UK prime minister. No good deed goes unpunished and all that.
The Chagos Islands deal was an act of gross stupidity, The Donald posted on his Truth Social platform. No matter that nine months previously he had warmly endorsed it. No one knows if he could even find Diego Garcia on a map. Sure, he can. Next to Greenland. That’s loyalty and consistency for you. And teach Starmer not to take anything he does or says for granted. Let’s face it, not even Trump is entirely sure what Trump will do next. Depends on how he is reacting to his meds on any given day. The world is one step closer to chaos.
