There's an excellent article on Substack by Lorenzo from Oz basically saying that International Law is a chimera because there is no body that can enforce them.

So if the UK had diplomatically said Eff Off to the machinations of the International Court, nobody could actually do anything apart from fulminate and say rude words about us.

I laughed when I read that the EU said that Trump's tariffs on steel were "illegal". Do they really think he cares?

Indeed, the writing is on the wall.

Yet, the majority of the electorate seem unaware of many things, and willing to vote - if they can be bothered- for what seems right on the day. So be it - this is democracy in action.

The international 'issue of the day' that MSM shrieks about is used to distract from major issues here - a tax system openly abused both by MG Gov as well as certain 'sectors', an energy policy that isn't, the world's highest energy costs for the public, and State that knows no bounds. That's before we get to having roads that are not dirt tracks or enough houses / hospitals and so on.

Time to say we have given too much away, we have made ourselves poor, and need to stop this madness. Now. Immediately.
