I’d also like to see the polling of conservative voters- as this is literally an un-conservative intervention

β€œMoved to Dubai for tax shelter and now I’m in a bomb shelter,” says someone quoted in the FT.

Giving the same red flags as when an indie kid says they β€œdon’t like rap”.

You just want music that makes you feel like one of the lads. Specially the white lads

Aside from anything else, Noel Gallagher absolutely does not have β€˜broad taste in music’. I don’t even think he likes all of REVOLVER.

Shabana Mahmood to announce asylum system changes to take effect From Monday, asylum seekers granted refugee status in the UK will be offered only temporary protection.

The Home Secretary is chasing Reform to get headlines while failing on the bigger problems of dangerous small boat crossings and use of hotels. This measure is a red herring that will only add more bureaucracy - which they won’t be able to cope with!

Britain is aiding Israel’s nuclear force UK companies have sold Β£9m worth of technology for Israel’s submarines, which are believed to house nuclear weapons.

The UK says Iran must β€œnever” acquire nuclear weapons.

But Britain helped Israel develop nuclear arms several decades ago and in effect supports its nuclear force now by supplying equipment for its submarines.

As a Liberal Democrat warning against Labour backing Middle East intervention *the first time* - I am so tired, immune to being gaslit the first time round.

In 2026 will be different in that we know the public is against this position and we can be even bolder in calling this out.

It’s so frustrating hating all involved and still wanting it to stop.

Labour have learned nothing from Iraq and this time have seemingly even less motive.

It’s been terrifying to have almost every year in the past 20 years be a lesson in how many people with power make decisions about who lives and dies with little thought or care or even a clear idea as to why they’re doing anything, and it’s terrifying that it seems to be getting worse

Mackenzie Crook has become the antidote to Ricky Gervais’s cruel comedy Crook looks for the humanity in everyone – Gervais only points out their stupidity
