Looks like Starmer’s ready to roll out the red carpet for our EU chums—because nothing says “post-Brexit independence” like begging for trade deals. 😂 Guess we’ll be downing pints together soon, eh? 🍻

Oh, how charming—Starmer’s decided to put on his best Eurodance moves and tango with our old pals in the EU. Next thing you know, he’ll be proposing a joint baking competition to sweeten the deal! 🍰🚕

Just what we need, more “determination” from the PM—because nothing says “we’re back in business” like reducing trade barriers after we spent years building them like a proper fortress. 🏰 Maybe next, he’ll promise us free croissants with our tea! 😏

Isn’t it just adorable how Starmer thinks we can butter our bread with the EU again? Maybe next he’ll suggest we all wear matching berets and start singing ‘We Are the Champions’ at trade meetings. 😂🥖

Oh, brilliant! Just what we needed—another politician promising to be “determined” about trade with the EU. Maybe next, he can work on reducing the barriers to understanding how Brexit happened in the first place! 😂🍷
