The decent people in Labour really need to have a word, because right now most people think you’re complicit in this.

Nothing says romantic anniversary break like a fully air-conditioned slavery-powered tax haven.

Sudan would like a word

You just know he's absolutely fewmin with Paul Pogba over this.

Mutually assured destruction, but looking damn good whilst doing it and smoking a Gauloises.

Wait til he finds out about Minneapolis.

Not entirely sure you should be tempting people like this, it might give them ideas.

Pires!

It's good that we're approaching this point because I've pretty much already become Michael Caine's character in this filum.

Yes, Iraq had a Q in it, whereas Iran has an N

You may mock Dubai, but it makes an excellent, distant holding pen for people from Essex.

Really excited to have The Shah of Iran back.

Britain has the chance to do the funniest thing…

Seconded, the book and film are both beautiful and incredibly touching.

I do hope the people blindly supporting this war will also support the rise in costs and inflation that will inevitably come with it, and be perfectly happy housing the millions of refugees the war will cause.

I’m sure HMRC could charter a few cruise ships. Lots of time for chats on the way home.

Oh no, they've hit our participating-in-the-genocide air base

That doesn't sound massively defensive to me.

This is what you are gleefully cheering on.

Is this the divisive, sectarian language I’ve been hearing so much of from the right-wing parties and their client media?

To be fair, they’ve got form for bombing hospitals.

Red for Pedro Lidl

Trossard is doing my nut in here. Play it, play it quick. Get it, give it, get it back. Dropping the shoulder until the momentum is gone is unhelpful.

I am calling on Sir Kier to IMMEDIATELY charter evacuation flights for ALL Brits living in Dubai- but don't bring them back here, maybe drop them over the mediterranean sea on the flight back or something

106 dead children.

I couldn't have less sympathy for Brits who moved to the Dubai Slave State to avoid paying tax, have probably supported every 'intervention' in the Middle East and now are scared when the bombs are falling on *them* for once. Call me back when they make an atomically small violin.

Blessed St Totteringham's day for all who celebrate. www.whenissttotteringhamsday.com

Martin Odegaard's goatee.

The tabloid press asking how we, as a society, have reached a point where a brief stoppage in play so Muslim footballers can break their Ramadan fast is a cause for booing

Deadline stress is such that I have to resort to the big guns. First track; Frankie's Two Tribes and Sigue Sigue Sputnik's Love Missile F1-11. Feels relevant.

a less affluent suburb of manchester just elected a plumber & those who insist we listen to the working class are furious turns out it doesn't count if you're pro-trans & pro-immigration

Has anyone asked why we have troops in the Middle East for Iran to hit?

I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.

As Nigel Farage is now so concerned about the influence of "foreign-born voters" can he finally explain why a Kazakhstan-born billionaire appears to be bankrolling his own political party?

The Mail on Sunday going for a proper fash hat-trick today. Royals, War and Evil-Foreigns-Subverting-Our-British-Democracy-by-Voting. Absolutely textbook Rothermere.

One thing is clear. Keir Starmer is singularly incapable of standing up to Donald Trump.

It’s wrong to vaporize school children even if Congress votes to approve it.

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Just to be clear, the US is happy to forcibly deport dozens of migrants including dissidents protesting the Iranian regime back to Iran. But now has to bomb Iran to...protest their treatment of dissidents? Am I doing this right? (gift link)

You know what? Let’s not fact check the idiots who think Ayatollah Khameini, the Iranian supreme leader killed today, was the same guy as Ayatollah Khomeini, who led the Islamic Revolution in 1979. Let them believe he was 124 years old. In fact, persuade them he was kept alive as a head in a jar.

One person thought Iran was in Norwich and I still can’t quite get my head around that.

It is 1991. I am 15 years old. The US has gone to war in the Middle East. It is 2003. I am 27 years old. The US has gone to war in the Middle East. It is 2026. I'm too old for this shit. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

I love that WWIII seems to be being waged from a bingo hall. Mutually assured destruction…48

Every single person involved in bombing a girl's school in Iran, killing 51 and wounding even more, would tell you, if asked, they are protectors of women and girls. Evey single one of them.

Never forget that shutting down your local arms factory is infinitely more useful to the victims of war than voyeuristically consuming imagery of mutilation.

Come on Leeds, do it for your old friends Arsenal

The global north when Brown people are bombed.

Can think of nothing more cowardly than pressing a button to shoot a missile that will land dozens or hundreds of miles away. Little bottle of water next to your desk. "Yes sir" and all that shit. Walking around saluting each other. Fucking losers. Killers.
