Short version

UK/Norway fishing negotiations failed

Cause DEFRA (@DefraGovUK) under George Eustice MP (fmr UKIP)

Point blank refused to grant Norway reciprocal right in UK waters in return for the UK to have fishing rights in Norway waters
This refusal was purely to keep the Tory donors and mates, the UK Codfathers millionaires happy.

FYI, its was the Codfathers all along who where ruining UK fishing, not the EU, but the EU was an easy scapegoat.

The EU had no influence or input on this now failed deal
it gets worse

The Norwegians just wanted a roll over deal as they had some fishing rights in UK waters too

George said no to that

Short version of the Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe

In the late 70s the Shah of Iran ordered and paid for 1500 Shir 2 tanks from the UK

Paid £400m for them
#FreeNazanin
The Shah was overthrown in 1979 and Iran became the Islamic Republic of Iran

Iran still wanted the Shir 2 tanks it had paid money for

But the Govt said nope and kept the money and supplied no tanks
#FreeNazanin
Fast forward to 2016, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe visits her mother in Iran with her 22m old daughter in tow on a 100% family visit.

As she was about to board the plane back to the UK she was arrested

1/5 I think the UK should become a republic

What's the point of a monarch with powers stop an out of control rogue Govt if they're scared to use them?
2/5 Parliamentary seats should be redrawn as best is possible to all be the same size population wise

MPs should be elected on PR with a run off of the two with highest votes if no one got 50% plus of the 1st vote
3/5 The lords needs to go

Replaced with another elected body, the make up such I'm not sure about, but say based on regions and not seats

1/4 Trump's strategy for his coup d'etat

Is the keep throwing a s*** at the wall in the form of fake election fraud cases

So that the state electors when they meet in a few weeks are unable to certify their results and declare @JoeBiden the winner
2/4 At which point it falls to the state delegates most of which are republicans

Who will of course declare him president

Which would trigger big reaction from the centre and left of politics in the form of massive protests
3/4 At which point he will invoke the insurrection act an "attempt" to use the US army to keep him in control by subjugating the US people
