1. Johnson and drumpf are determined to destroy 2 of the world's strongest economies.

drumpf is doing it so PUtin put him, then keeps him in power to grift, steal and hurt whoever he wants as long as he helps Russia and does everything PUtin tells him. Is Boris involved with the same #1 oligarch in the world and does he serve the same purpose? It seems like a big yes to me, but not really 100% sure about him and Brexit, other than Russia approves.

2. British and US Conservatives are now in a race...

... to see which can be a failed state first.

Turning silk purses back into sows' ears... utter madness.
