“We would be helping the Americans and Israelis in any way they saw appropriate” “in ⚠️ANY⚠️ way ⚠️THEY⚠️ saw appropriate” FFS. He wets his pants about an EU army and British sovereignty one minute. But would sign our troops up to god knows what, the next. Tice is a weapons-grade moron.

Everyone in British politics lining up behind this recklessness are taking a massive risk...

Mojtaba Khamenei is Irans new Supreme Leader. Not only did the US kill his father in the March 1st strikes, his wife and mother also died. Just something to think about.

Brent oil futures above $100/barrel

Something absolutely bonkers in "we think this person might defect to another political party so let's promote them"

Myth : "There Are No Nazis Anymore" Actuality: Another UK Nazi Terrorist stopped before a planned mass killing. Paul Page had 600 weapons, landmines, hand grenades, other explosives ... and of course, paedophile material. buff.ly/XLRi0aJ

How can the US still not recognise that Netanyahu will always Netanyahu?!

Of course he does...

Looking at what was once the most successful political party on Earth:

BREAKING: At least 394, including 83 children, killed in Israeli attacks on Lebanon, Health Ministry says Trump dogwalked into an escalating global war by Netanyahu and Christian nationalists. What could go wrong?

The absolutely disgusting rot at the heart of British media summed up in a single headline. A wretched clique of pathetic, racist, servile dogs.

The Democratic leadership would prefer that you think of them as feckless cowards, when in fact they are Kissinger-like creatures who support massacring Iranians. In Schumer and Jeffries's realpolitik, they get the war they want while letting the GOP pay the political price. Best of both worlds.

A Reform government will display Union flags on everything, right up until we replace them when we become the 51st state of America.

President Catherine Connolly has described the situation in the Middle East as a "deliberate assault on international law".

This is much better than the usual ‘drill, baby, drill’ editorials. But it still overstates the case for new licenses by a sizeable margin and is guilty of a very big omission. observer.co.uk/news/busines...

This seems bad

“.. A woman who claims she was abused as a minor by both Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump has given the FBI vivid accounts that include aspects of her life corroborated by the The Post and Courier through public records.” @postandcourier.bsky.social www.postandcourier.com/news/epstein...

Keir Starmer should advise the King that the state visit to the US scheduled for April should be called off. At a time when Trump has launched an illegal war that is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills for British families, it’s clear this visit should not go ahead.

it’s a little bit surreal to be doing ethics training and disclosures knowing this shit is happening in every nook and cranny of the federal government

The footage appears to contradict President Donald Trump’s claim it was an Iranian missile that hit the school on Feb. 28. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

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.

It's reassuring to know at least one person at the BBC is paying attention.

War crime upon war crime upon war crime

It is interesting to compare and contrast the attitudes of soccer and NFL players when it comes to the balance of financial reward vs winning trophies.

I remember the BBC doing something similar when Boris Johnson placed a wreath upside down at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday... www.bbc.co.uk/news/enterta...

It’s Comrade Stalin. He’s very ill.

Ukraine is offering practical help defending US interests with anti drone technology. Russia is helping kill Americans. And yet ….

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

the reverse version of those “evolution of man” drawings

"The pollster Peter Kellner has calculated that if the referendum were rerun today, instead of a leave win by 1.3m votes, remain would win by 8m. There’s no historic parallel for the injustice of that"

Destroying their water supplies and poisoning the air they breathe doesn't exactly scream "we're here to save you" to Iranian citizens

I'm out of words here

Still amazes me how successful our adversaries have been in getting normal folks to blame immigrants (who are in the exact same boat [sic] as them) for this. Rather than, you know, the folks in the different, posher, boats.

The UAE is denying any involvement in striking an Iranian desalination plant. (Jerusalem Post)

I wonder when it will dawn on the Gulf States more widely that one potential end-state sees both their oil and water infrastructures destroyed - and that neither Trump nor Netanyahu would care one jot?

You know what would have helped with this sudden isolation we now find ourselves in? Not leaving the damned EU. For fuck’s sake.

This headline ominously cutting off mid-sentence made me think it was a @theonion.com article.

20 years occupying Afghanistan wasn’t enough to break the Taliban who are now stronger than ever, but sure the Iranian regime would surrender in a week and let DJT pick its leader. What were these people thinking.

Out of all the character arcs that the UK right could have chosen to emulate from Game of Thrones, I'm a loss as to why they have seemingly voluntarily chosen that of Theon Greyjoy. #UnitedReekdom

Presumably Miller will use the refusal of allies "to be there for the US" in its illegal war as a justification for pulling the US from NATO.

When you've one side, USA and Israel, who don't care how many people are killed, and the other side, Iran and their militias, who don't care how many people die, it doesn't leave any room for a resolution anytime soon...

The right has lost its collective mind. What does victory look like? What is the reason for this war (I am not seeing a legal justification: there obviously isn't one). Tying yourself to Trump looks foolish. /1

Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper responds to President Trump’s latest outburst. “The job of the British PM is to take decisions in the national interest of the U.K., not in the interests of other countries… we don’t outsource foreign policy to other countries”. #bbclaurak

(watches USA pounding Iran, thousands killed, no plan for ending it, oil and gas prices shooting up threatening a fragile recovery) right wing commentary: "omg, Clegg, Obama and Starmer sure screwed up this one, they've got a lot of explaining to do"

A shame so many commentators "missed" the attacks on Palestinian water infrastructure over the years... precedents set in Gaza seemingly look set to be repeated more widely.
