It is bonkers the EU bosses

Posted on Sun, 03 Mar 2024

It is bonkers the EU bosses don't scoop up all the produce from Ukraine and send it to people who are starving in places like Eritrea. Why are they letting cheap food cause so much ill will in their own countries when others are desperate? That...
