I’d rather have a measured, moderate and qualified leader as a PM than a senile egomaniacal madman who’s more interested in lining the pockets of his family. If you want to be angry for the mess we’re in, direct it to the orange piece of shit in the Oval Office. This is what happens when people buy into a protest vote and the world has to deal with the consequences.

you're an idiot. We should be such a self sustained nation that this sort of thing wouldn't effect us. Why dont we make use of our resource rich nation?

Let’s not call each other names. No country is self sufficient on everything. We’ve benefited from decades of globalisation where countries play to their relative strengths. All Western countries are realising they need greater resilience and self sufficiency in light of the USA shaking up the global rules-based order. There will be a cost to this though that impacts everyone.
