Perhaps it's the insomnia which is catching up on her, poor love.

There's an inflation wave coming. How worried should we be? Economic consequences are an intrinsic aspect of the Iran conflict, writes BBC economics editor Faisal Islam.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Profiteering on the fuel forecourts has already started. Greed above all before any crisis has begun.

Esso have already added 50p per litre on their diesel. Is this level of premature escalation not blatant profiteering?

It's like being shouted at by a chimp! 😳😂😂😂

I'll believe it when I see it.

How tempting must it be for Starmer to respond with, "... and this is not F D Roosevelt we are dealing with" ! 🙄

The minister of state for the armed forces says the UK would not be ready for a war - although the UK should probably stop telling everyone that

Farage is either as thick as pigsh1t, paranoid that nobody takes him seriously or he staged this purely for publicity. Vote 1 for Pigsh1t, 2 for Paranoia or 3 for Publicity. 😳

Only mega-rich Britsa like him. I'm not anti wealth at all but I don't believe in high levels of greed.

I'm starting to feel sorry for him. Is there no-one close to him who will get him to sit down, put a blanket over his knees, say 'it's all over, Donald' and tell him calmly that presidential executive power is very much limited?

Will the police make sure they take his shoelaces, tie and belt whilst he is in custody?

I suppose the obvious question is what does 'the Palace' have to fear from transparency? These are not Tudor times ....

Perhaps Starmer felt he had nothing to lose. Facing a defeat legally would have been worse and the Russian support for Farage issue remains important in the unpatriotic context.

Probably correct. Perhaps Starmer felt he had nothing to lose. Facing a defeat legally would have been worse and the Russian support for Farage issue remains important in the unpatriotic context.

No. I think more will be revealed in March when the independent report into Russian funding of Reform UK Ltd is released. Possibly hugely damaging to Farage.

Explaining this to Trump would be like teaching a garden slug how to play chess. (Sorry slugs!)

"And these two people here, talk about sending them back."

Perish the thought that the BBC might grasp some truth in a current issue! 😃

Mason never managed to spot the suitcases of booze being shipped into Downing Street during COVID.

Not notice the disco lights flashing through the curtains.

Nor the banging drum and bass.

But he thinks he can predict the future Prime Minister by the sounds coming through a door.

Yeah. Every time. Mason and Beth Rigby suddenly take on their 'Downing St tourettes' whenever they have nothing of any substance to offer.

Mmm. Surely this Tory tradition is being far surpassed by Chris Mason's speculation about the speculation on the speculation leaked by political speculators spinning some of the wildest speculation they'd heard?

McSweeney and Cummings both benefited from a mythical status promoted by lazy journalists: Advisors “status is elevated to often mythical levels, but also the journalists whose careers are dependent upon maintaining good relations with them.”
Like Cummings - McSweeney just shouldn’t have been there.

Email appears to confirm Andrew and Virginia Giuffre photo is real The former prince has previously questioned whether the picture had been doctored and claimed he had never met Giuffre.

BBC News - Email appears to confirm Andrew and Virginia Giuffre photo is real
www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... The photo was forensically scrutinised. There was NEVER any doubt about it's authenticity so it didn't need an email to support that, unless it didn't meet the BBC's impartiality rules(!)

To '... flip out emotionally' is not a crime and kicking ANY car in protest does not warrant a person being shot dead with ten bullets, eleven days later whilst unarmed.
