What is the issue

What is the issue

Wow, what a week, the world has really gone crazy. From the short mayor of London losing his decorum and attacking Donald Dump on his visit to England to observe the 75th anniversary of D-Day. Mail on line journalist Piers Morgan cut to the bone when he commented saying "The real big baby in London this week is Mayor Khan - a petty little pipsqueak who'd shamefully rather mock and humiliate the President of Britain's greatest ally than honor the D-Day heroes of both our nations."

Poor Mayor Khan opened the door on Trumps caustic saracsm and was then reffered to by his own height. It just keeps getting better. I see Piers' side, as the Mayor of London you have to hold onto decorum, keep your petty and childish shortcomings out of your execution of the role as a public servant. The jury on whether some of Khan's utterances were racist or not is still out, probably won't reconvene.

Trump is not making himself look good and is really causing havoc around the world. His trade wars with China are looking to backfire on him as Chinese businesses start looking towards Russia as a place to move their manufacturing businesses from America. You see there a many ways to skin a cat. Not that I would skin a cat, I'm vegetarian so no cat skin for me, just saying.

India is not happy with Trump's administration taking away their preferential trade status, they are planning a backlash, a little tit-for-tat. But it was the special relationship between America and Britain that came to the fore, with Trump promising Brexit, lol, and a supercalafragalisticexpialidotious deal as soon as Brittain leaves the EU.

Things are not so hunky dory here at home. Our poor president is still skating on thin ice with the fear of being removed from office forcing his hand on some of the amazing appointments to our nation's parliament. It is almost like a scene from a musical chairs party from the sixties. Now you're here, now you're there, now you're back here. That's how you run a country. Come on, give me a go, I would love to see how easy it is to muster up a parliament and keep a multi billion Rand economy going. Just five minutes in the reserve bank is all I would need.

In other news President Erdogan of Turkey is sticking to his guns and going through with the Russian deal for the S-400 missiles, much to the American's disgust. Threats of sanctions are already bounding about and you can be sure that Donald is not going to be happy one bit.

Oh and while you're flying out there, the CEO of our illustrious airline has once again resigned. It's a dog and pony show.
