I see that both the media and the markets continue to hang on to this petulant little man-child’s every word.

Our right wing media in particular is still siding with a foreign power that is becoming increasingly hostile simply because they see it as a stick to beat Starmer with. Absolute s***show all round.

I do feel a degree of sympathy for the Americans who voted against this mess who will be tarred with the same brush.

Just as well they aren’t in the dangerous authoritarian state that is the UK where there’s no freedom of speech. If they don’t like the UAE’s laws then why did they go? Foreign criminals being treated harshly, that’s what we want right?
