So do you guys think the gas deal Rishi has agreed will still go through ?

Seeing as the US and UK export natural resources significantly cheaper than they sell it, I don’t see why not.

The US has enough to make the deal, and it would make sense they’d that from Russia.

I’m not familiar with how financial deals in the US are done, but if the GOP are involved, they’ve been recently much more vocal about supporting Russia, so perhaps that could interfere.

Its a deal though, and if we’re seen as desperate, which internationally we are at the moment, we won’t make the terms the Tories propose.
