  • In which case why would Greenland want one ? Iirc Only 6% of their population feel that aligning with / being taken over by the US would be a good idea. 75+% are “hell no” the remainder are against it (but less vociferously).

    The biggest debate in Greenland is remaining a semi autonomous part of Denmark vs full independence, and if so when.



  • Massive serves of hopium in the article.

    Yes they’re at each others throats but we’d have to be awfully lucky for the old vampire to die before 2030, and he has achieved his goal of controlling govts in the English speaking world (with the exception of NZ who wisely banned him).

    Even if he does cark it in time to cause the assets to be divvied up James Liz & Pru aren’t left wing, they’re just not batshit crazy Nazis like Rupe and Lachlan.

    IOW it’s a nothing-burger: best case we get some slightly less crazy media in the UK. Fox remains the nazi channel in the US and we keep marching towards authoritarian dictatorships and/or invasion by one.












  • Given there is going to be serious economic disruption there is a lot be said for diversifying your assets. If most of your assets are currently in the US moving your pension fund into assets held outside it is a strong de-risking move, particularly if you can move it out of the country totally using a foreign prover provider as well as holding non-US assets(not sure if that last is legally possible, don’t know much about your pension system).

    Note you may get poorer performance - it’s really up in the air just yet what the short term impacts will be economically (depends what King Mango ends up deciding, it’s mostly speculation right now)
