"WE WILL REMEMBER" Trump Declares War on the City of London

--Promethean Action

Barbara Boyd argues President Trump’s Truth Social post aimed not to humiliate Keir Starmer but to warn the City of London, claiming Britain stayed out of the Iran conflict because war is bad for City business. She says headlines about oil spikes and Hormuz chaos are a manufactured panic, driven by Lloyd’s of London pulling war-risk coverage to engineer a price rise and profit from disruption. Boyd highlights Trump’s counter-moves: a $20B U.S. maritime reinsurance and escort plan to replace Lloyd’s leverage, criticism of the Financial Times and JP Morgan, and lifting Russian sanctions to keep oil flowing and collapse the spike. She connects this to a broader push targeting London-linked dirty-money networks via hemispheric anti-cartel cooperation and joint development of resources in nations like Argentina and Chile, framing it as a break from the postwar “special relationship.”
