"Dubai is a melting pot of cultures, faiths and nationalities, and in moments like this, that diversity becomes a source of resilience.

There is tolerance, mutual respect and a shared determination to support one another."

Sorry? What? The Daily Heil?!!?

How the right-wing British press became Trump’s trumpet Churchill would be appalled by the kinds of things Donald Trump says and does. But Fleet Street is happy to ignore history for the sake of some political point-scoring, writes Alan Rusbridger

“You’d think he’d be busy monitoring the wildfire consequences of the war he’d just started. But, no, he entertained himself by slagging off the British leader to any British journalist who’d listen.”

And they did more than listen. They disgraced themselves.

🚨Independent analysis shows these changes would make NO meaningful difference to the court backlog and there is no credible evidence it will make justice swifter - WHAT IT WILL DO HOWEVER IS PLACE US ON A PATH TOWARDS AUTHORITARIAN JUSTICE

Is that what we want?

Trump in January : "Save the name of the killers and the abusers because they'll pay a very big price!" "Stop the senseless killings!"

Trump in March : "Carpet bomb the Iranians!"

My heart bleeds…

So, Johnson, Farage, Badenoch, the Telegraph… howl about the UK being “an irrelevance on the world stage”.
Remind me again who decided to isolate us with a strategically and economically idiotic Brexit, relying on a trade deal with the US to save us from exactly the kind of weakness they now bemoan.

What Ferrari & the other RW pundits ignore is that we have significant military forces already deployed in Cyprus across 2 sovereign base areas - some 4,000 personnel, 30 aircraft & air defence systems etc. thus a ‘speedy’ deployment of a single ship is not so important.

Spain’s PM “They say Spain is alone.”

“But they’re the same people who said that when we recognized the State of Palestine and then many followed.”

“We are not alone. We are the first of many.”

Tens of thousands marching in London today for the Stop Bombing Iran protest.

President Trump demands unconditional surrender in respect of something his government insists is not a war.

Iceland to hold Aug. 29 referendum on reviving EU membership talks Icelanders will have the chance to decide their future once and for all, the prime minister said.

““In a world that is changing fast, the European Union offers an anchor in a community of values, prosperity and security.”
If the referendum is successful, Iceland would need to go to another vote once it finishes accession negotiations to actually join the bloc” www.politico.eu/article/icel...

“YouGov poll found…People were overwhelmingly against the UK joining the US attacks — 70 per cent opposed and 19 per cent in favour.” Starmer should take a leaf out of Pedro Sanchez’s book & clearly say no to war.

“The war of unintended consequences. Israel and the US have achieved many military aims in Iran, but the unpredictable fallout poses threats to everyone”

Why the anti-war stance of Pedro Sánchez, PM of Spain, will probably be proved the right approach archive.ph/2026.03.07-0...

Yes I agree. Inc Mamood.

Pedro Sánchez’s lone stance against Trump may look risky, but it is cannily pragmatic | Eoghan Gilmartin The Spanish PM’s defiant foreign policy line may seem outspoken. The truth is that he is a sound strategist at home and abroad, says journalist Eoghan Gilmartin

His defiance over the Iran conflict reflects a calculation that the geopolitical risks are manageable, the potential electoral rewards significant, and that the broad alignment with Trump’s militarism will not hold.”…paging Starmer…🤷

Britain’s war hawks are very upset that Keir Starmer isn’t personally riding a bomb all the way to Tehran | Marina Hyde Didn’t you know? True British patriots are the ones who want to join an obviously disastrous war on behalf of Israel and Donald Trump, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

“Badenoch’s entire demeanour since the war was launched has been that of a teenager who discovered from social media that some of her friends got together without her at the weekend and vaporised an ayatollah.”

Yes they can it’s just that other manufacturers can’t produce a generic version whilst in patent.

Many US firms’ drugs, inc those still under parent, are actually manufactured in the UK or Ireland - this deal is about protecting the UK’s pharma exports from US tariffs

Yes, Keir Starmer must do better and go faster in bringing Britain closer to Europe. Here’s how to reset his reset | Naomi Smith MPs warn the plan so far lacks direction and drive, but there are four clear ways to really move on from our disastrous Brexit, says Naomi Smith of Best for Britain

“MPs warn the plan so far lacks direction and drive, but there are four clear ways to really move on from our disastrous Brexit” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

WANTED: Morons, racists, fuckwits, criminals, bigots and numbskulls to stand as Reform UK candidates. Total ignorance of local authorities preferred and we promise not to check your social media history!

I may have my frustrations and disappointments about Starmer as a domestic politician, but internationally, I think he’s serious, responsible and trying to do his best for U.K. in unbelievably complex int’l environment, despite treasonous ghouls like Farage doing their best to undermine him.

It's almost like she hasn't been briefed and doesn't know what she's talking about and doesn't have google
