Now, apparently, confirmed by Farage: www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This.

Not only that, also a deliberate shot in our own foot. How to reduce the number of friends we have overseas. Starmer should overrule Mahmood

I’ll drink to that.

I do hope we have seen Farage’s high watermark. And the thought that Jenrick jumped to join the ship that is slowly sinking is particularly delicious.

The only way to understand her current position, that she wants us to bomb Iran but not join the US/Israel aggression is that she wants us to start our own, separate and private war with Iran. Seems entirely in character.

Badenoch denies calling for UK to join US-Israeli war on Iran Conservative leader accused of taking confusing position after she said Starmer should ‘do more than catch arrows’

Impressive that it took Badenoch less than a week to realise she’d have to lie about what she said the previous week www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

So presumably she wants us to start our own private war with Iran?

"I've never called for war with Eastasia" www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

It’s very good.

Farage delivers energy sermon at the pump – just don’t mention the war Reform leader’s Derbyshire petrol station stunt grinds to halt when questions on Iran leave him short-tempered

“While Nige has been brown-nosing Trump with his warmongering, he’s missed that most of the country doesn’t want to follow the orange narcissist into an illegal war with no fixed objectives other than continue till The Donald gets bored”

It worked with huge amounts of help from the rightwing media. And a dogged refusal to make anyone really accountable for their failures and lies. Maybe we could stop doing that now and see how our democracy and national wellbeing improves as a result.

I'm starting to find the number of senior people associated with Brexit who have 'prior commitments' preventing them from speaking at an event slightly suspicious

We shouldn't rule out the possibility that the Andrea Jenkyns has had a labotomy.

New More in Common poll finds that 55% of British voters want Keir Starmer to prioritise "standing up to Trump", compared to just 27% who say he should prioritise working with him.

74% say they want British forces to have either no involvement in the Iran war or to just offer defensive cooperation.

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

Stop analysing how a pigeon plays chess. Stop it now.

“Never once did Reform promise to cut council tax” insists an angry Nigel Farage to Sky News.

Here's some of the leaflets Reform have been putting out ahead of the local elections

We are facing an energy crisis. Britain is the worst exposed in Europe with only 2 days gas supply stored. If only we had our own gas to exploit. Or our own oil. Or our own coal.... Blame @Ed Miliband (Allison Pearson on X)

If only we had clean, renewable energy and were not beholden to a dirty, expensive, dangerous commodity that pollutes our environment and is the source of most of our geopolitical woes.

With every passing day, the decision of Starmer and his cabinet a) not to join the Iranian war b) to delay access to bases looks wiser and wiser. Trump’s press conference last night shows he has no real idea what the objectives are and its duration is arbitrary.

I’m hollering at my screen… yaaas!

Actress Sheryl Underwood, an Air Force Reserve veteran, is asking the questions we all want answers to.

“Why is this not impeachable? And where are the politicians that say, ‘this dude don’t have it all the way together, he cannot be the commander in chief?’” 🔥

"There's a genocide happening in this island because it is being taken over by dffiferent people that are not indigenous to this land"

"I would love to know where you are planning to go when they really turn on us. Because it has happened before + will happen again"

Nigel Farage takes significant stake in Kwasi Kwarteng’s Bitcoin company Farage’s investment in crypto company Stack, headed by executive chairman Kwasi Kwarteng, comes after Labour asked the Electoral Commission to investigate crypto donations to Reform UK

So, as people stuggle with their mortgages and bills, Farage invests £215,000 in Kwasi Kwarteng’s crypto business.

And plans to deregulate that high-risk industry by removing our rights and consumer protections.
He’s laughing at voters. All the way to the bank.

What's the odds Trump gives up on his own war before his British cheerleaders do

Iran does not, in fact, have Tomahawks.

Journalist, "You say war is complete, but Hegseth says it's just beginning, which is it?"

President Trump, "You could say both"

So much winning

Large tortoiseshell butterfly confirmed no longer extinct in UK Early spring sightings show colourful insect is a resident species for first time in decades, says conservation charity

Some nice news for once.

Farage is pitiful.

“I never said that”
“A tax cut can be not putting taxes up”
“I didn’t put it on the leaflets”

Oh ffs. You said it. You didn’t do it. And now you’re lying and blaming someone else. Same as you always do.

If only our media were significantly better at pointing that out.
