Stunning revelations in NYT - Trump still trying to pull USA out of NATO. Well done to the Tories and UKIP who collided with this Kremlin-influenced fool... and it's not just about Trump... nytimes.com/2019/01/14/us/…
2/ Trump has introduced into American politics a cost/benefit approach to NATO. His advisers are saying "stay in because it is good for the USA" - not because the West has a moral duty of collective defence of democracy...
3/ The pro-Trump pro-Brexit wing of British Toryism are actually colluding in the dismantling of European collective security.
4/ We will be debating what to do about having a Kremlin stooge in the White House at this Fabian conference on Saturday... (but there's a twist)... fabians.org.uk/wp-content/upl…
5/ Even the word "Fabian" is now a trigger for the Trump movement, as the Labour moderates are weirdly thought to be part of a statist international conspiracy (cf Rich Higgins memo) ...
6/ Upsum: EU military powers need a new independent strategy *within NATO* - the US is an untrustworthy ally. And the hard Brexiteers are purposely weakening NATO as an alliance.
