Ursula Von der Leyan's new deal with South America threatens to rip the European Union apart, as tensions mount between Paris, Brussels and Berlin.
The European Commission president penned a landmark new trade deal with Mercosur states in Montevideo, Uruguay, on Friday - but the French government is reported to be strongly opposed to the new agreement.
The deal, which is 25 years in the making and will encompass over 700 million people, is objected to by France over fears that its domestic poultry and beef markets will be undercut by cheaper South American supply.
On the other hand, Germany is reported to be thrilled with the agreement, as Berlin sees it as a means of boosting exports.
Siegfried Russwurm, the head of the Federation of German Industry (BDI), lauding the trade deal, saying: "This agreement will provide an urgently-needed growth impulse for the German and European economy."
Under the terms of the deal, trade barriers will be reduced between the EU27 and Mercosur members, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, and new addition Bolivia.
Ms Von der Leyen told a press conference: "We are sending a clear and powerful message: In an increasingly confrontational world, we demonstrate that democracies can rely on each other. This agreement is not just an economic opportunity. It is a political necessity."
Despite the agreement being reached by the leaders, EU states still have to ratify it. France is hopeful of convincing fellow sceptical states Poland, Ireland and Austria to block the deal.
"France's voice remains strong in Europe," Sophie Primas, a French junior trade minister said. "No, we're not alone in our opposition to Mercosur as it stands. We can achieve a blocking minority." -

How lies and misinformation is spread (Edited)
I understand it is now being said that Sadiq Khan closed all the police stations down
Here are facts
The Metropolitan Police (Met) has closed police stations in London due to government funding cuts and other factors:
Government funding cuts
The Met has had to save over £600 million since 2010 due to the. governments funding cuts.
Prioritizing public safety
The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has made difficult decisions to close some police front counters to prioritize public safety and protect officers.
Increased distance to police stations
The increased distance to police stations has slowed officer response time and decreased the Met's ability to solve investigations.
Selling off stations
The Met has sold off some police stations, including Savile Row, Tooting, and Cavendish Road, for a combined total of over £62 million.
Most police stations in London were closed under Boris Johnson, before Sadiq Khan became Mayor! -

First may I remind you that the UK emits an insignificant 0.8% of global CO2 emissions.
So our incompetent PM and his idiot Energy Secretary, Ed Miliband, AND would you believe it, 470 officials go to Azerbaijan in the hope of improving his CV by grandstanding on the world stage.
What makes this so ridiculous is that they are proposing to waste £'s billions of our money in a bid to become world leaders to net zero, while all the other major players are going in the opposite direction.
The COP29 is obviously a fiasco such that the leaders of the USA, China, India, France, Germany, Argentina together with the leader of the EUC Von Der Lyden, not even bothering to attend. So while Starmer was grandstanding he was lacking an audience of any standing to watch him. So what did it cost us? a PM, a Minister and 470 pen pushers on a nice little Jolly, not to mention the carbon footprint to get them all there.
During the election Starmer claimed, now conveniently forgotten, that the billions that he would spend on renewables would reduce our energy bills by £300 per household, whereas the OBR say that it will add£12 billion to our fuel bills this year.and that ignores all future subsidies and the estimated £100 billion required to upgrade the infrastructure to cope with renewables. All this to achieve nothing in global terms.
What shows the stupidity of their policy is that India and China together emit in 6 days what it takes the UK a year to achieve, and they are actively pursuing an expansion of their coal fired generating capacity.
COP29 celebrates reaching a deal of 300 billion dollars of aid, big deal, they haven't coughed up half of that promised on the previous deal.
A further irony of COP29 is that it is held in Azerbaijan where 90% of it's exports are fossil fuels.
With these idiots in charge what chance does the planet have?. One thing is for sure and that is we can expect much higher energy bills and many more vulnerable and poorly off people shivering or even dying from hypothermia. -

"The owner of Vauxhall has announced plans to close its van-making factory in Luton, putting about 1,100 jobs at risk.
There are growing concerns among car manufacturers over EV sales targets, with many ... calling for the government to do more to boost consumer demand.
In response to the announcement, the government said it while it was
"encouraging to see Stellantis investing in the future of its Ellesmere Port plant, we know this will be a concerning time for the families of employees at Luton who may be affected".
[ MAY BE AFFECTED??? ]
As part of the shift to electric, manufacturers are required to sell a certain percentage of cars and vans that emit zero emissions.
Current rules state EVs must make up 22% of a carmaker's car sales, and 10% of van sales this year.
For every sale that pushes it outside the mandate, firms must pay a £15,000 fine. There are flexibilities in the system, allowing manufacturers who cannot meet the targets to buy "credits" from those that can.
Car brands with factories in the UK have been urging the government to relax the rules, arguing that EV demand is not strong enough and more incentives are required for drivers to go fully electric.
Following the intense pressure from industry, Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds is expected to announce a consultation on the rules later on Tuesday."
A consultation on rules from desk-bound politicians!

This madness of forcing car manufacturers to build a higher percentage of fully electric cars and less petrol cars, even though the demand for EVs is not there, is causing car plants to close and thousands of jobs to be lost.
Last week Vauxhall closed a plant. Now Volkswaged are closing three plants. This will be the first time a German car plant has ever been forced to close.
