These people do realise that the UK is a sovereign nation with it’s own self determination, and not just an extension of the US?
The Suez Crisis was a war we started the US decided not to join, it presumably realised it wasn’t in their national interest.
So we skip some and they skip some.
So Badenoch, Farage and Blair think the Iran war is a great idea? Hmm … | John Crace

"Last year Trump told the world, 'we have obliterated Iran's nuclear capabilities.' So why are we having a war, a year on, to obliterate Iran's nuclear capabilities."

Vague and contradictory Trump says Iran war ‘won’, but not ‘won enough’
everyone is extraordinarily desperate to pretend that Donald Trump is a coherent individual with a real plan who understands what is happening in the world and none of that is true
Trump’s Iran war will reinforce North Korea’s view that nuclear weapons are the only path to security
I’m livid with the mainstream press and their support of the US-Israel war -
It’s unrepresentative of UK citizens. It only represents the rich gung-ho Epstein class.
I’m more determined than ever to build the citizen journalism alternative.

Me too!🥺 I think most🇬🇧 people don’t want us to get involved at all & object to🇺🇸 planes using🇬🇧 airbases.
I question why some newspapers & news outlets are allowed to continue? They project a distorted narrative, usually the viewpoint of a narrow group. Perhaps banning overseas ownership would work?🤔
So, as people stuggle with their mortgages and bills, Farage invests £215,000 in Kwasi Kwarteng’s crypto business.
And plans to deregulate that high-risk industry by removing our rights and consumer protections.
He’s laughing at voters. All the way to the bank.

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

Forcefully injecting a diabetic, and refusing another man medical care until he lost consciousness, Ukraine's full claims are listed here.
love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region
If your energy needs are met from solar, wind, tidal, geothermal and nuclear sources, backed by copious battery storage, you're far less vulnerable to sudden crazy oil and gas price spikes.
Trump's war on Iran is the best possible ad for accelerating the greening of the economy.

This is an absolutely huge jump in oil prices.
It's also why Europe needs to get off fossil fuels asap (beyond climate change impact). We can't be beholden to this.

This godforsaken idiot piece of shit.
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.

It doesn’t work like that when:
1) oil infrastructure is blown up
2) the war has already shown the US cannot defend the Gulf states, so shipping risk stays high - pushing up insurance costs too
3) Iran can choke Strait of Hormuz
4) previous wars have seen oil stay high long after war.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD…
Can we STOP with this ‘special relationship’ BS
And also…can we wake up to the treachery of our right wing press?!
Ukraine rightly feels aggrieved, after revealing they've received about 600 Patriot missiles in the entire 4+ year full Russian invasion.... while 800 were spent in the middle-east in a week, countering Iran's projectiles.
It appears more and more crass stupidity by the U.S.
It's Day 4,400 of Russia's plan to destroy Ukraine and Ukrainian culture.
That's how long ago Putin ordered the capture of Crimea.
It's Day 1475 of Russia's all-out invasion.

Kirk was also saying release the Epstein files! Was he becoming a potential embarrassment to T***p so he ordered for Kirk to be kept quiet?
