Starmer attacks Badenoch for attacking him over not joining the war last week & makes it clear that Badenoch is the one wants to join the war.

He also states that Badenoch then claimed she never said that when she appeared on BBC.

She wants war then denies it!

This is clearly fine with the GOP.

Steve Rosenberg: Russia seeks diplomatic and economic gains from Iran war President Putin pits himself as a potential mediator but that's not an easy sell, writes the BBC's Russia editor.

Probably not the outcome most of us were hoping for.

Kemi Badenoch made to look an utter fool after just one question. #PMQs

Oh! Haven’t thought about Touch Tapestry in years, quite a stabby project if I remember correctly.
Didn’t have Fuzzy Felt but there was some at school.

At a women in STEM event today, someone bemoaned the lack of women doing computer science. At tea, a young women who had left the AI/tech world told me this: β€œit’s just full of men lying about how good they are & constantly competing”. Just maybe the problem is with tech culture & not the women… πŸ€”

What the Boris Johnson of "Let the bodies pile high." The Boris Johnson who slipped his security detail to party with "X" KGB Agent & put his son in the H.O.L. That Boris Johnson. The Johnson who ran away & hid in fridge. Quiet Johnson we shall hear no more from you.

Another AI generated article by the second worst PM in living memory. For which the lazy, feckless scruff received Β£20,000 from a paper that can ill afford it.

I believe its the press and right wing parties who are opposing, Listening to Any Answers- almost unanimous support from callers. There's a complete misalignment between (most of) the press and the public

I think we are also on the same page as Germany. The only reason why Trump is attacking Britain is because of Yaxley’s recent visit to the US, filling their heads with nonsense. And of course Farage (although he is no longer the golden boy). Qatar & UAE won’t even let the US use their airspace.

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

Really?

Johnson, who proudly took us out of the EU, made us an irrelevance. We don't need to join a pointless war to make us more relevant, we need to rejoin the EU.

Boris Johnson was the one who made us a laughing stock and then he made himself a piffling irrelevance. Warms my heart how very badly he’s coping with that.

Boris Johnson made us into piffling irrelevance.

Time he was incarcerated.

There is almost no difference between the UK and French positions on Iran. But Macron's approach has been broadly accepted by French media and the opposition - except for the extreme left. The parallel with the UK is interesting.

I like this cartoon so much we paid the New Yorker the fee it requested to include it in my book.

We’ve not even had the vote 100 years. Let’s not let thing backslide.

Happy International Women’s Day, one and all.

Boris Johnson surrounded himself with weak, flawed, incompetent people whose main quality was their fealty. The damage was profound, inevitably leading to his defeat. Trump is on the same story arc and, come the midterms, the incompetence could scupper his determination to cling onto power.

The Iran war should be a lesson for Keir Starmer's Government. If you take a clear line on an issue where the public agree with you then it's your opponents who end up having to back down, not you

Farage, Johnson, Gove, Rees Mogg, Trump - a strong feeling of utter disgust on the sight/sound of a growing list of simply awful people.

It now appears clear that Jeffrey Epstein did NOT off himself, based on staff talk overheard by inmates, independent bank reports that large deposits of money were made to the guard in charge at the time, and 2 suspiciously nonfunctioning cameras.

The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017 to 2025.

The top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets β€” more than the G.D.P. of the United States and China combined.

Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Still wondering if inequality is out of control?
