Sebastian Gorka, part of the Trump administration, has said that if the UK want to remain an ally of the US, they need to allow Shamima Begum to return to the UK.
David Lammy said she has been through all the courts and will never to return.
Weasel Farage has completely changed his tune on this subject from outrage at the very idea of it to being 'thoughtful' as he puts it, to her return.
We all know what Nige is playing at. He yearns to be part of the Trump/Musk big boys crowd so mustn't be seen to rock the boat in that direction.
Gorka doesn't need to join the club in telling the UK what to do.

Thanks, Dickens grin

Richard Murphy this morning is speculating that Trump may well make a bid for Scotland. hmm

Why not? Scottish blood in his ancestry and he's be able to build golf courses wherever he pleased without any trouble from the pesky locals. And remove eyesores like wind turbines...

I think I said that a few threads ago.
(Or perhaps I just thought it.)

Research Molly Forbes, now deceased (from Balmedie). Her water supply was cut-off by Trump's team of workers when they were excavating the golf-course.

She, and a few others refused to sell their houses so that they could be demolished to make way for the golf course.

There was trouble - he 'dealt' with it.
