Obviously nothing is to their credit. But the talk about tariffs is forcing the UK to look towards Europe more than they maybe would have, and a majority of Brexit voters are now in favour of joining the EU’s internal market.

It was just a tongue in cheek way of saying that the US’ only ally in the world is going to be the soaring Russian economy - even the Brits, who forcefully tied themself to the Mayflower mast, are now looking back to Europe.

In good personal news, a good friend of mine in the UK has landed a really good job in the UK working on the tariffs. I’m very happy for her. Silver linings. :)
