I love that line so much. Along with 'Can I ask a question sir?' " As long as it's not the one about where babies come from'. As a teacher I have to stop myself answering with that one...a lot.

After four days of hesitating, the president of France has joined the prime minister of Spain in saying that the ๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ฑ attack on Iran is a violation of international law.

72+years on, US & UK attempt to repeat history
