The dream
I think I'd be asking something along those lines, yeah, or point out the contradictions and then ask why we should believe anything he's saying right now.
Deeply impressed (subs please check) by the journalists' ability to ask him questions about his comments like they might bear any relation to reality.
Completely at a loss as to what I'm supposed to do with any of this latest ramble. Is it over? Is it carrying on? Is the USN really going to start convoying ships through the straits? Is this sanctions stuff for real? What is actually happening, please, my mind is breaking.
Beg to differ
He’s got to go. Another abysmal England performance, all the same discipline errors plus the lack of inventiveness going forward that characterised Borthwick’s tenure as captain as well. Can’t see how he hangs on.
I’m just asking question, General
Are you though?
Bad for incumbent governments everywhere, but also a disaster for Ukraine - Russia will be delighted that they can afford to up payments to new recruits, just as they were struggling to replace casualties.
Can’t believe there wasn’t a Khimenei or a Khumenei to keep the trend going
Is this something you can do in America? Just ring up the manager of your local Tesco equivalent and ask them to order stuff for you? And they will?
I’ll be honest, they don’t sound much like experts to me
Tell me you’ve never looked at a map without telling me etc etc
Ruff place to be, surely?
The Government has meanwhile published a summary of its legal position, which is basically "we're acting in self-defence and collective defence of our allies who have been illegally attacked by Iranian missiles".

Well that was a busy 5 minutes.
Starmer says the UK *will* allow the US to use British bases to hit Iran, but only to target Tehran's missile sites in order to defend allies in the Gulf.
Britain still won't take part in strikes directly.
The vast majority of those who have registered their presence are on holiday or in transit.
The vast bulk of those who have registered so far are holidaymakers and those in transit
Big operation underway at the Foreign Office to help Brits in the Gulf.
76,000 so far registered their presence, mostly in the UAE - unprecedented numbers already.
Officials looking at possible evacuation routes, but current advice is follow travel guidance and local authorities.
For people who talk out of their arse?
I asked Reform this last night, and was told Irish nationals would not be disenfranchised as part of this policy.
Just heard someone on Sky say Donald Trump likes to "shoot from the hip".
I think, if we've learned anything here, it's that he likes to shoot from the carrier strike group.
Or, in a potential libel suit I live in regular fear of, Tory MPs called Andrew Griffith and Andrew Griffiths.
UN Security Council currently meeting under UK chairmanship.
Sounds like there was some pressure to get this meeting on the agenda today, as tomorrow the chairmanship passes to the United States.
Russia still having a moan about UK presidency, though.
I repeat
Latest: PM is chairing Cobra this morning as missiles continue to fly in the Middle East.
Understand UK not involved in this morning's US/Israeli attack.
Lots of travel advice being changed - FCDO warns against all travel to Israel, Brits in UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait advised to take cover.
Nice quiet weekend shift then.
Unclear whether the criticism here is that the MRLP got 159 votes, or *only* got 159 votes.
Away from the by-election, Rishi Sunak's got a new (unpaid) job advising the Ukrainian government uk.news.yahoo.com/rishi-sunak-...
