The RW screeching is not working - just the opposite

Would this be the same Iran conflict Kemi Badenoch has just spent an entire week calling Keir Starmer a coward for not wanting to join?

The British Right’s Permanent War Fantasy How the Telegraph, Mail and GB News turned a dangerous global conflict into another excuse to shout β€œweakness” and a supplicating audition for Trump’s approval.

Trump bombs.
The Telegraph screams humiliation.
The Mail screams betrayal.
GB News screams weakness.

And all of a sudden a complex global crisis becomes yet another loyalty test to American power.

The UK deserves better than this performative war hysteria.

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

As a man of the people, I naturally used a private jet provided by a crypto billionaire based in Thailand for my latest publicity stunt.

I suspect Reform Ltd are funded
by arms manufacturing lobbyists
and policies suiting their profiteering
come way before the interests
of voters struggling with energy bills

Blairβ€˜s lack of self-awareness is stunning. He never appears to realise that his actions over Iraq mean that any cause he lends his name to is instantly damaged.

Starmer must be very happy that standing up to America has earnt him an attack by Blair, America’s poodle.

Genuine questions: could these people be in the pay of the regime? And would that, to use language some of them favour, make them both β€˜economic migrants’ *and* β€˜welfare scroungers’?

I'm sure it's just a massive coincidence that they used all the same words, ideas and punctuation.

Okay, enough. Look, the centre-right are going to be the centre-right, that's completely unsurprising to me. I don't expect the Economist to like Polanski.

But this shit is just dangerous. It is asserting that what is at the end of the day a democratic party is akin to literal neofascists.

On Sept 10th, 2025, the flag was lowered 5 hrs after Charlie Kirk was shot.

But for our military who gave the ultimate price in Iran for a pedophile and Felon squatting in our WH? NOTHING!
Remember, Trump said they were losers just a few years ago.

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.

Tate was trying to get to Dubai on a bus.

When they got to the Saudi border everyone was told to get off for passport and baggage checks and Tate decided to stay on - presumably because the bus was air conditioned and he didn't want to stand in a queue.

He then got detained by Saudi guards.

I remember when β€˜Brexit Means Brexit’ became a way for silly people to insist that they supported something they could neither justify nor explain. Obviously the context is very different, but something similar is already happening with the β€˜war’ in Iran. And it’s mostly the same people doing it.

Iran is fighting a war.

America thinks it is playing a video game.

What could possibly go wrong?
