    Europe vs the US: How do they compare?

    The World at One Highlights

    President Trump has described Europe as a “decaying” group of nations led by “weak” people, saying it was being "destroyed" by immigration, which was “ruining" Europe's heritage.

    The new US National Security Strategy says the US must “cultivate resistance” within Europe to its "current trajectory" which has set it on a path of "civilisational erasure" - a document which describes itself as “a roadmap to ensure America remains the greatest and most successful nation in human history and the home of freedom on earth”.

    The World At One's Sarah Montague and PM's Evan Davis consider "Europe versus America" - how do they compare, in income, job opportunities, life expectancy, literacy, and quality of life and happiness?

  5. Sarah Montague expresses Heresy against BBC orthodoxy around the Farage!

    "Now, we wouldn't normally lead our programme with the new policies of a party with only four MPs but ..."

    2025-08-26 1300-1345 Tuesday

    (that is at about 8 minutes :20 seconds in but there's still about four minutes of Faragemania before that and then it just goes on with indepth spectroscopic analysis of his brainfart after that)

  10. It says a lot about the slope-headed, webfooted denizens of #Lincolnshire that they're the only idiots in the country who don't think Brexit was a bad idea!

  11. Hillsborough is not the top story today - it's the IMF and that Britain's Tory run economy is the worst in the developed world!
    #bbcnews #wato #bbcwato

  12. What's Jeremy Hunt's "good news" about the British economy? High inflation, massive debt, collapsing industry, falling exports, queues at ports, seas full of shit, beaches full of refugees, workers surviving on food banks?! The UK is not "well placed" FFS!

  13. Just bought tickets for Akhnaten @[email protected], following that bit about opera on #BBCWATO. If it's no good I shall be having a stiff word with @[email protected], who really deserves to be a Dame by now!

  14. #BBCWATO is trying to distract us with talk about semiconductors. The real reason for the collapse in UK car manufacturing is Brexit! We can't get parts from the EU, and can't export due to rules of original!

  15. #bbcwato so if a single parent on universal credit earned even a fiver over what they should’ve to be entitled to the measly pittance this govt doles out … they would be penalised. At once.

  20. Good to hear Germany agreeing Leopard tanks to Ukraine, but does Ukraine really need those bloated, gas-guzzling US Abrams tanks, that use different fuel and ammunition?

  21. Tax returns *should* be public in this country, particularly when they are politicians making decisions about public finances.

  22. "I believe in proper due process", says Rishi Sunak - the man who helped evil Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin evade sanctions and try to silence a British journalist!

  23. The Hon Lady Sarah sounds like she has a bit of a cold, poor love #wato #bbcwato

  27. The lady from #Afghanistan spoke a truth unacknowledged by #Braverman and her Toriban .Most refugees want to go back to their countries once the situation is stable.
    They are not ‘invading’’swarming’ or taking homes/jobs away. They just need a safe place. For a while. #bbcwato

  31. Your reminder: whatever ‘priorities’ #RishiSunak purports to care about,, he has absolutely no mandate whatsoever from the British people ; he was not even elected by his own membership.
    Meanwhile, this is what THEY think he has done!

  35. The sooner @[email protected] dump Ed Davey the better.

    Everyone knows he was directly complicit in Tory austerity, and he's a massive drag on any progress the party hopes to make at the next general election.

  37. 🙄As you listen to the usual lies being trotted out glibly by @[email protected] stooges,

  39. What's wrong with young men today that woman-abusing homophobe Andrew Tate appeals to them? This is why young men need proper education on citizenship and inclusivity #waro #bbcwato

  40. Sarah please talk about paramedics, not "ambulance drivers". Paramedics are highly skilled medical professionals, not taxi drivers!

  41. Jonathan Gullis on Bishops condemning the Tory Rwanda deportation policy: "I think too many people are using the pulpit to preach from"

    Dolt.

  42. Personally I'm less worried about the threat posed by Shamima Begum, and more worried about the terrorist immigrant running the Home Office!

  43. Anyone remember when they told us Brexit would reduce immigration, and improve the NHS? Instead we've got the highest rates of immigration ever, a collapsing privatised NHS, a crumbling economy, worst growth in the G7, and a dying democracy
