Alok Sharma hit the nail right on the head. The new boy on the block has to make himself known to the other kids. By not doing so he risks being ostracised as being a nobody. I have never seen a bunch of film stars or rich dudes at these meetings. The real sense of them is the discussion of serious ...

the days of it being a global power are long gone. Maybe, but why? Because we let it go that way by our insularity. Our FU Jack attitude has gone a long way to isolate the UK from the rest of the world. This is illustrated well by the notion of the PM (or rather his civil service minions than himse...

U.S. climate envoy Kerry: King Charles at COP27 would be ‘very powerful’ Opposition Labour Party leader Keir Starmer criticised Sunak’s decision. “Many people would be expecting the prime minister of the UK not just to attend COP but to use it as an opportunity to pull world leaders together,” he sa...

I never said that the benefits you obtain were free of charge. Of course you pay for them but the advantage that it's the same treatment for everybody at the same price for everybody, at least in theory.
