Zack's not messing about.

"There are currently thirteen US military bases in the UK operated by an estimated 10,000 personnel. If Trump were to take military action against Greenland, we need to be able to act fast to peacefully and quickly remove America鈥檚 military presence from our country. The government should also cancel its 拢240 million deal with Palantir, signed despite MPs raising serious security concerns about the company."

US Bases.
'Security' collaboration with the US.
USA Big tech.
Other US firms
US Imports, including military hardware
Investment of US capital (which is profit-seeking, from us, of course).

It needs a prioritised programme of disengagement, starting now.

@markhburton From the press conference earlier

Andy Bell: "Isn't the conclusion.. you've been too soft with the president & isn't the lesson we have to draw from what's happening now is that you have to start being tougher with him"

Keir Starmer: "I don't agree with that assessment"
