Trump tells UK to buy chlorinated chicken from US if it wants tariff relief - Lemmy.World

Summary Donald Trump warned the UK must accept chlorinated US chicken imports if it wants relief from new 10% tariffs on British exports. The U.K. has long reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining high food standards, with polling showing 80% of Britons oppose a ch imports. Critics argue chlorinated chicken stems from poorer production hygiene, with studies showing high bacteria rates in US chicken. Farming advocates warn a US trade deal with lower standards would be “devastating for British farming.”

No, don’t kill him. Let him develop Long Covid and then waste away in his own filth.

The first time around, I said I didn’t want him dead because I wanted him to face justice. I wanted him to rot in a cell while he watched the world prosper without him in power and see his efforts dismantled.

That was misguided.

What middle class? If there ever was one in this country, it hasn’t existed for my entire adult life that’s for sure.

It’s called the American Dream because you’ve got to be asleep to believe it.
