Eurostar, is in financial shit-street thanks to Covid. However, despite being French owned (Cameron sold Britain’s stake in 2015 for £750m), the Frogs still want us to help bail out their problem.
Not only is it part state-owned, but there are some private investors too, most of whom enjoyed sizable profits when Eurostar was running to capacity pre-covid. But now of course its become a taxpayer’s problem and the French seem to think we should bail the fuckers out while seeing next to nothing in return!
No doubt the Jellyfish will wobble and hand over a billion or two. Not that the Frogs will be any more grateful – they still see us as a bunch of cunts, and will probably send over a few hundred dinghies by return

And seconded by mikdys with this:
Let them go bust and buy the trains off the Administrator for €1. What we ought to do.
No doubt we’ll bail them out and put another couple of points on the new National Property Tax to pay for it (plenty of grannies out there who need their houses less than the Frogs need perpetually bailing out!).
We used to fight the Frogs but now we kowtow to them. Never mind a war we couldn’t even take our fishing rights back in a peaceful negotiation.
This country is f*cked!
