I keep thinking that if Donald Trump had gone to prison for January 6, as he should have, all those Iranian schoolgirls would be having dinner with their families this evening.

I think you'll find all the people paid to understand geopolitics have been fired.

The only people who want this war are Netanyahu and Trump.

The only way for the war to end is watch them fail and offer no assistance. None.

Reform UK government would replace top civil servants with policy ‘believers’ Exclusive: Senior party figures conclude outsiders or existing senior staff deemed more suitable should take over from current permanent secretaries

What a cracking idea.
As we have seen from America, packing Government bodies with 'yes' sycophants leads to excellent decisions being made.

The IRS’s Verification System for Sharing Taxpayer Data With ICE Would Have Accepted ‘Don’t Care 12345’ as a Valid Address We’re a couple weeks late to this one, but it deserves more attention than it received. As the Washington Post first reported, a federal judge has found that the IRS violated federal law 42,6…

This timeline sucks. 'on the day (ICE) found out the data was obtained in violation of federal law, the first move was to give more people access to the illegally obtained data' - @masnick.com re: 'The IRS’s Verification System for Sharing Taxpayer Data With ICE' www.techdirt.com/2026/03/13/t...

I don't think he is begging.
I think he just wants to drag as many others as possible into the mess he has created, so that the blame can then be spread around.

Just get on and do it.
Set a date, no more than 2 years away, when the current HoL will be abolished.
Then spend year 1 determining the criteria for elected members, and year 2 setting up the process to vote, and the actual voting.
There are plenty of elected 2nd chambers that can be used as a model

And there you have it. The exact same hysterical theological nonsense you’d get from someone in a suicide vest - just with a different name tag.
Amazing to think how much hatred there is between people with the same beliefs.
Any Messiah worthy of the name would surely be appalled by them both.

But this is a trap, isn't it. Because the American military looks powerless in the face of...small boats with explosives...he wants to drag other nations into the war so that they also look equally powerless. And then of course it will all be everyone's fault for not doing their bit properly.

Gosh, by time I got to read your post, he'd won it another time, making 7 wins!

Not really equivalent, are they?
Trade barriers are costing us £millions, whilst reducing fees for EU students gives us more soft power and costs, well, probably nothing as even reduced fees more than covers costs.

Morning, friends🫂🫂

I’m alive, but the night was mentally exhausting.

From 3 am to 6 am russia used
Almost everything against Kyiv
And the region -
Kalibrs, Kh-101, Iskanders, Kh-59 and shaheds.

Overall: ~500 air attack weapons.

More fake news then :-)

McIntosh (former Royal Marines Commando) said "The IDF... openly fire on civilians for fun" - how can anyone watch this and not think of Schindler's List?

Ace of spades ‘death cards’ were left in cars to intimidate Coloradans detained by ICE in Eagle County.

DHS said they’ve removed the accused agents from the field, but they need to be fired immediately.

There should be zero tolerance for these disgusting & hateful acts.

If you're a service member being ordered to prep for deployment for the War in Iran and you have moral and/or ethical misgivings on all this, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

Boiler explosion, nasty.

Thank-you for the big picture of.....a train. Until I saw it I was confused as to what Chiltern Railways did.

You join me at Swansea Crown Court / Llys y Goron Abertawe for an indecent images case where police had to wait 20 months to get a forensic examination report for the defendant’s phone. But sure, curtail the right to a jury trial as a way of reducing the backlog in the system.

"Have you tried turning it off and on again"

Declaring that no quarter will be given is straightforwardly prohibited under international humanitarian law.

When done to threaten an adversary, the declaration itself amounts to a war crime.
