Trump is stealing Bernie's manifesto. In this episode, we dive into why Trump is suddenly talking about taxing the rich and slashing the cost of prescription drugs, policies lifted straight from the progressive left. Is he turning on the billionaire donors funding his campaign? And is Israel, long a pet cause of those donors, being quietly edged out of Trump's new MAGA calculus? We unpack a flurry of recent deals, from a largely meaningless UK–US trade agreement , to an urgent truce with China after Chinese exports to the US through the Port of LA fell by 50%. Behind the white smoke: a looming summer of empty shelves, rising inflation, and a reminder that America's economic dominance isn't what it used to be. Meanwhile, Ireland exports more to the US than the UK does, despite being 12 times smaller, but could soon find itself caught in the crossfire if the US starts attaching China-related conditions to EU trade.

We analyse his response.Is the UK/US trade deal worth the paper it's written on? Not according to US economist Joseph Stiglitz.

He questions whether the so-called “truce” is a real breakthrough or just political posturing, arguing that this moment marks a quiet retreat from one of the most costly unforced policy errors in recent economic history. Markowski emphasizes the real-world consequences for small businesses and consumers, exposes the market-driven motives behind the tariff pause, and mocks companies like Apple for trying to mask tariff-driven price hikes. He also takes a jab at the UK-US trade deal, calling it little more than a glorified press release. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com

(2:48) What are people saying about China over there? (3:30) And how are the ports doing? I've been hearing some concerning things. (4:25) Did you get any fresh data on trade?

What was the big takeaway? (11:28) So private equity is in vogue. Why? (12:50) That's huge. What does this mean for junior analyst roles? (13:14) One of the issues we hear a lot about with private equity is the drop off in public listings. Is this an issue for the asset class do you think? (14:14) Let's turn to geopolitics before we wrap. The new UK-US trade deal got quite a bit of airtime in the press. What's your take? (15:33) Do you think we will see the US become more isolated? (16:45) And what about Europe? We've heard a lot about the EU being slow to act in the past—has that changed? (17:23) So you're saying US protectionism is acting like a catalyst to make Europe great again?

US trade deal: ‘a political win, not an economic win'

On Thursday afternoon Prime Minister Keir Starmer gave a speech about closing the long-awaited UK-US trade deal. Not that his announcement went without a hitch however; after first directing lobby journalists to the wrong Jaguar Land Rover factory in Coventry, Starmer then had his limelight stolen by the election of a new Pope. Although, Labour's ‘historic' trade deal has pipped the Pope on most front pages. The reception has been positive across government too, with many heralding a political win for Labour – just when they really needed one after the local elections. But is this an economic win as well? Critics say the deal is shallow, clearly just a start, and are at pains to point out that we are still in a worse trading position than earlier this year. Meanwhile, the governor of the Bank of England intervened to urge the government to ‘do everything' it can to rebuild trade with the EU.  Lucy Dunn speaks to James Heale and Michael Simmons.  Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

If you're travelling in mainland Europe this Easter and thinking about possibly bringing back some local delicacies, think again. Following outbreaks of foot and mouth disease in Germany, Hungary and on its border with Slovakia, restrictions on the food you're allowed to bring in, have changed significantly. You are now not allowed to bring in meat or dairy products from any EU country, except for poultry. So how great is the potential for cured meats or cheeses in your suitcase to transmit foot and mouth?Some of the UK's rarest wildlife is being "torched alive" and pushed closer to extinction after weeks of intense grass fires, conservationists have warned.There has been a bit of talk about trade deals this week, with the the US Vice President JD Vance talking about a prospective UK/US agreement, and that's making farmers nervous. They worry that agreements risk undermining them and this week raised concerns over a deal with India, saying it mustn't allow imports of cheaper food, produced to lower standards. The company behind one of the UK's biggest vertical farms has closed. The Jones Food Company which ran indoor farms in Scunthrope and Gloucestershire, as well as a development centre in Bristol, called in the receivers after failing to find new investors. Vertical farms grow crops, mainly herbs and salad leaves, inside on shelving, using special lights to create a warm humid atmosphere which reduces growing time in comparison with conventionally grown crops. But with a number of companies going bust in recent years, is this a viable way to grow food?And as spring is springing, we talk sheep shearing in West Dorset.Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

Send us a textTitle: The Fatherless Generation – Reclaiming Biblical Masculinity in a Broken Culture.Fatherlessness has become one of the most devastating and overlooked crises in modern Western culture. In this episode, we confront the raw reality: 15% of UK families and 23% of US families are growing up without fathers—the highest rate globally. And the fallout is nothing short of catastrophic.We dig deep into the data, sharing shocking statistics that reveal the scale of this cultural collapse. Children raised without fathers are:20 times more likely to be incarcerated70% of teen pregnancies come from fatherless homes60% of teen suicides and 90% of homeless youth share the same root cause—father absenceBut these aren't just numbers. These are real lives, real stories, and real souls being shaped in the vacuum left by missing fathers.Our discussion explores how the Church has retreated from its biblical mandate to uphold family structure. As a result, men are confused, silenced, and increasingly disempowered in a culture that criticizes traditional masculinity while simultaneously craving its strength and stability.We ask the difficult question: What does biblical masculinity actually look like? It's not the toxic dominance the world fears, nor the passive detachment it accepts. Instead, we look to Jesus Christ as the perfect model of manhood—strong yet gentle, authoritative yet humble, a servant leader and warrior King. He offers men a path back to purpose, identity, and legacy.This episode speaks directly to:Fathers longing to lead with clarityYoung men searching for identity and role modelsCommunities grieving the fallout of broken homesWe also explore the role of mentorship, accountability, and discipleship in healing this crisis. The solution is not political—it's spiritual. And it begins with men being restored to their God-given role, leading with love, truth, and courage.If you're tired of surface-level conversations and ready to dive into the deeper cultural and spiritual issues shaping our families and futures—this episode is for you.fatherless generation podcast, biblical view of masculinity, Christian response to fatherlessness, statistics on fatherless homes UK US, Jesus as model for manhood, raising godly sons podcast, how to be a godly father, spiritual impact of broken homes, mentoring young men in faith, church and family structure decline, restoring fathers through faith, Christian men and cultural identitySupport the showhttps://www.pastorbencooper.co.uk/https://www.rbchristianradio.net/

Let Farage get Trade Deal with Trump.  #Brexit #Farage #Trump #TradeDeal  In this video, Jon Gaunt explores the potential of a groundbreaking trade deal between the UK and the USA, led by none other than Nigel Farage. President Trump's tariffs on the UK and EU, is a clear victory for Brexit but what if a trade agreement with the United States could bring those tariffs down to zero? Farage, the architect of Brexit, is in a unique position to help secure this deal.  Gaunty argues that Labour leader Keir Starmer should set aside partisan politics and invite Farage onto the negotiating team. After all, Trump has made it clear he's no fan of the EU, making this the perfect opportunity for the UK to strengthen its trade ties with the US.  Starmer must prioritise the British people and our sovereignty, putting aside his Remainer bias to put the UK first. Will Starmer step up for the nation or let the opportunity slip away? This video delves into why Farage is the key to a successful trade negotiation and why UK politics must look beyond the usual tribal divides for the benefit of the nation. We also discuss the future of UK-US relations and how Brexit plays a crucial role in shaping them. Don't miss this debate on British sovereignty, free trade, and what the future holds for our nation in a post-Brexit world.  Keywords and Search Terms: • UK politics • Brexit • Nigel Farage trade deal • UK US trade deal • Keir Starmer Brexit • Trump tariffs on UK • Farage and Trump trade talks • UK free trade agreement • Post-Brexit UK politics • UK sovereignty • Brexit news and updates • Brexit trade deals • UK trade negotiations • Farage Reform Party • Brexit victory • UK EU relations • Sovereign UK policy Tags: #Brexit #UKPolitics #Farage #Trump #TradeDeal #USUKTrade #KeirStarmer #BrexitTrade #Sovereignty #ReformParty #UKFreeTrade #PoliticalDebate #UKNews #BrexitVictory #PoliticsUK #FreeSpeech

With tensions rising, Keir Starmer seems to be scrambling to patch things up with Donald Trump, but is this all part of a larger political play? Should the UK have aligned itself more European Union? We also discuss whether the Labour Party's previous criticisms of Trump are now coming back to haunt them. Do you admire Trump's bold and unapologetic style, or do you think Keir Starmer has the better approach for the UK's future? Could this be a moment of payback after years of political sniping between Trump and the Labour Party?

This week will see ‘World Tariff Day' – as those in Westminster are not-so-excitedly calling Wednesday – when Donald Trump will announce a wave of new tariffs. Trump is expected to reveal plans for reciprocal tariffs aimed at addressing what he sees as an ongoing trade imbalance between the US and other countries. He argues that it is ‘finally time for the Good Ol' USA to get some of that MONEY, and RESPECT, BACK. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!'. It had looked as though the Prime Minister's softly-softly approach to US relations was working and that we might avoid Trump's levies... that was until the UK was included in the 25 per cent tariff on cars and auto parts imported into the US, along with steel. There is some hope, however. Donald Trump and Keir Starmer had a call last night in which they spoke about a limited free trade deal. The pair ‘discussed the productive negotiations between their respective teams on a UK–US economic prosperity deal, agreeing that these will continue at pace this week'. It is a knotty situation for the Prime Minister because if he cannot charm his way back into the US's good books, he will face more calls to get tough on Donald and threaten retaliatory tariffs. What's the mood in Westminster? And – more importantly – what's the mood in Washington? James Heale speaks to Katy Balls and Kate Andrews. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

In this video, Jon Gaunt dive deep into the current state of UK politics under Keir Starmer and explore the implications of Brexit in name only. Despite the promises of regained sovereignty after Brexit, the UK remains entangled in EU influence, particularly due to the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The ongoing migrant crisis and the government's inability to tackle the small boats invasion further illustrate this. With the looming threat of Donald Trump's tariffs—especially the 25% tariff on UK cars—it's clear that the UK must prove its independence from the EU to the world, including the USA. Keir Starmer, a staunch proponent of the EU, seems to be working towards maintaining the UK's close ties to the bloc, evident through his "coalition of the willing." While the EU and the UK have little sway over the Ukraine-Russia peace talks, the USA holds all the cards. Why does Starmer seem to align more with figures like Macron instead of supporting Trump's approach? Jon Gaunt argues that the UK shares far more common ground with the USA than with the EU, particularly in terms of culture, language, and politics.
