In the face of Trump’s threats, Britain’s best path is clearer than ever: hurry back to Europe | Stella Creasy
www.theguardian.com
Labour must urgently seek new roles and alliances, while also enhancing the UK’s own military capabilities, says Stella Creasy, MP and chair of the Labour Movement for Europe

Regarding defence:

The conclusion is inescapable: now is the time for the UK to reinforce, not wreck Europe’s security relationships, both through the European pillar of Nato and through cooperation with the EU. That means developing its own military capabilities as the US pulls back, as well as exploring a UK role in potential decision-making bodies such as a European security council.

Regarding the economy:

Labour should be open to renegotiating all barriers to cooperation – including integration with the single market in a Swiss-style deal.

Thoughts?

    OK, so you don’t have an answer or can’t be bothered to read the entire question. Trump has gone beyond what Biden did. I’m done with your bad faith bullshit.

      As I said, the US president does not have the juice to upend everything day one. Hence greenland to pull out of nato.

      As if he had the support in that community that he needs as much as any for the party’s plans, to upset them like that. Your question is rather foolish to be perfectly frank.

        He didn’t have the juice to not do something for Ukraine that Biden didn’t do either? Fuck off moron.
