There’s a special place in hell for people who panic buy petrol. #wato

It's difficult to end a war if you don't know why you started it in the first place.

Receipts:

Today I will mostly be trying to bribe people with cheap petrol, in the hope that they will forget that I have been cheering on the orange idiot whose war is pushing up fuel prices.

BBC studiously reporting without a trace of irony Reform calling for Reeves to halt a fuel duty rise just days after Farage called for us to pile into Iran alongside Trump. #bbcpm

This very straight news piece buried deep within the FT never uses words like corruption or insider dealing but every detail is quietly devastating. Why is the FT virtually alone in the UK media in covering this important story?

Taco on Iran will come too late for Trump ft.trib.al/ORJygqw

With every passing day, the decision of Starmer and his cabinet a) not to join the Iranian war b) to delay access to bases looks wiser and wiser. Trump’s press conference last night shows he has no real idea what the objectives are and its duration is arbitrary.

28 February Reform leader, Nigel Farage ‘ The Prime Minister needs to change his mind on the use of our military bases and back the Americans in this vital fight against Iran!’  Post on X

Nice to see the BBC and fellow RW media lavish praise on Starmer for his measured response to Trump's lunatic assault on Iran, and lambasting Badenoch, Farage, Tice for calling for an uncoordinated pile-on. Oh wait...

OFCOM all over this like a sloth on diazepam wielding a feather duster

The BBC, giving fantasist Trump the benefit of the doubt since time immemorial. #r4today

Nick Robinson: "Trump prides himself on his ambiguity." Really Nick? What proof have you got that this is anything more than the ramblings of an idiot. #r4today

Israel randomly butchering innocents. Plus ça change. The world is so numbed to their daily war crimes there'll be zero repercussions. #C4News

Intriguing suggestion that Iran have appointed an Ayatollah who doesn't actually exist to bamboozle Israel/US intel. The George Kaplan tactic from Hitchcock's North By Northwest. #C4News

Is it embarrassing that HMS Dragon isn't yet in the Mediterranean? Is it embarrassing that HMS Prince Of Wales and its group has had to be withdrawn from a tour of the high north? Is it embarrassing that BBC News doesn't seem to read anything, and doesn't seem to look for anything? #WATO

holy shit

Why has the British media got literally ZERO interest in Nigel Farage’s 43 name checks in the #EpsteinFiles? Day after day he gets a free pass from the BBC. #wato

BBC finally wake up to the Americans killing Iranian schoolgirls. Yesterday’s news…tomorrow. #wato

The 5 Live phone in is usually an accurate barometer of the mood of the country. Today's was overwhelming in support of the position adopted by Starmer.

Iran says 1,255 people killed in US-Israeli attacks, mostly civilians https://aje.news/9g880j

Cor, sure would feel great right now if we were self-sufficient in renewable energy, and laughing at all the rubes reliant on global oil supplies. We'd have a bit of a swagger in our step today.

Qatar Minster of education Lolwah bint Rashid Al Khater to the US: “…we just need you to leave us alone. To stop igniting wars so that weapons’ companies can make more money. We need you to Stop Bombing Schools, to stop trafficking and raping little kids.”

Gilt yields surging, oil and gas prices soaring, wider systemic impact transmitted through food prices and everything else. Iran didn't need a nuclear weapon to create mayhem. It just needed an idiot US President. And as for those who backed him- eyes open yet?

It will never not fustrate me that the Tories havent faced any consequences for how they systematically underfunded our forces - all while claiming to be a party serious about defense. And now they want us to get involved in a random, pointless war, shredding what little equipment we have.

We can only hope this accelerates Reform’s downturn in the polls… Brits can surely see how appalling this is?

Incredible, awful bloodshed - and for what? To possible find the remains of someone who went missing 40 years ago?

Fynn for the win. #PotteryThrowdown

Given Trump's illegal war that is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills, Keir Starmer should advise the King to call off April’s state visit to the US. A state visit should not be given to someone who repeatedly insults and damages our country.

Israel has killed tens of thousands of Palestinian women and girls in its genocidal war on Gaza. On International Women's Day, we look at the number of women and girls Israel killed in Gaza in 2025. #Infograph

This episode of #bbclaurak may as well be renamed 'Today in Unhinged Genocidal Butchery'. I'm switching over to GB News to see if I can find an iota of sense and intellectual curiosity. Kuenssberg is beyond abysmal.

It really is something to see politicians, commentators and media outlets whose whole identity is based on being so-called ‘patriots’ frothing with excitement as they line up to back a deranged megalomaniac who consistently attempts to belittle and bully the country they claim to love

Happy international women’s day x

Nigel Farage is a traitor, who actively seeks to undermine Britain. Lock him up. #bbclaurak

A little bit obsessed with all the nut clusters currently ‘ashamed to be British’ because Starmer didn’t sign us up to this shit show.

The U.S. economy lost jobs in 0 of the 48 months Joe Biden was president. It has lost jobs in 6 of the 14 months of Trump's second term.

Absolutely spot on.

I'm praying for Spain to maintain its current heights of ballsiness by leading a European boycott of the FIFA World Cup.

See Israel is grabbing the opportunity to butcher hundreds of innocent Lebanese under the subterfuge of its Iran attack. Pariah, vassal, loathsome state. 🇮🇱 #C4News

War crimes.

🎯🎯

I see Farage is off to Mar-a-Lago to talk down Britain and suck up to Trump. There's nothing patriotic about cheering on a foreign leader whose illegal war is sending British families’ energy bills through the roof.

CCTV video showing the moment a missile struck next to a boys’ school in Iran’s Qazvin, causing panic amongst students and staff, has been released by IRGC-affiliated media. Iran blamed the attack, which reportedly took place during the first day of the war, on the US and Israel.

Trump, Sunday: "They want to talk, and I have agreed to talk, so I will be talking to them." Trump, Friday: "There will be no deal with Iran except unconditional surrender." www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

Shakespeare: Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more / Or close the wall up with our English dead Churchill: to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime. Trump: But yeah, you know, we expect some things
