Why Farage Can Get Stuffed on Working From Home WFH isn’t a perk - it’s a lifeline. But of course, the fuckers who want it gone are the ones who’ve never had to endure the chaos the rest of us call “Tuesday.”

Farage frothing about WFH again…

Funny how the loudest critics are the ones who’ve probably never done a school run or a Zoom call with a sick kid in the background.

WFH isn’t hurting Britain - but Reform’s backers would hate you to realise who really is.

The potential for the Board of Peace to succeed in Gaza is slim The announcement of the President Trump’s “Board of Peace” (BoP) to oversee Gaza’s reconstruction has generated significant debate amongst actors in the Middle-East and beyond. The BoP is not simpl…

My take on why #Trump 's Board of Peace will fail in Gaza. It fails to address underlying root causes in #Gaza and the #WestBank and does not seek to stop the complete and illegal annexation of the West Bank. #Palestine #Israel

Exclusive: A U.S. official has alleged wrongdoing by U.S. spy chief Tulsi Gabbard in a complaint that is so highly classified it has sparked months of wrangling over how to share it with Congress, according to people familiar with the matter.

A new report from the OPCW IIT concludes Syrian forces, particularly Assad's Tiger Forces, were responsible for the October 2016 chlorine attack on Kafr Zita

#Zelensky is the leader #Europe has needed for decades. Charles de Gualle was right when he said Europe needed to be able to defend itself and be self-sustainable. No more words. Act #UK and #EU!

The irony should not be lost on anyone: a man who spent the entire Syrian conflict spreading disinformation meant to smear survivors of Assad’s chemical weapons attacks now posturing as someone concerned about disinfo. Hadi’s aim has always been to silence victims while uplifting the oppressor.

He talks of allies paying the US back, yet never once talks of #Israel paying back US taxpayers nor has he placed damaging sanctions on #Russia - a major threat to the West.

During a speech in Tehran today, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that "several thousand people were killed" during the recent protests by those he described as "seditionists", confirming for the first time that the death toll from the protests is in the thousands.

The US intends to tariff allied nations 10% rising to 25% until a Greenland deal is agreed. But won't place sanctions on #Russia for its colonial war nor ask #Israel to repay the billions in US taxpayers money Washington gives Tel Aviv. Makes 0 sense. #UK #US #France #Greenland #Ukraine

The US Department of State has issued a warning to US personnel in #Qatar to limit non-essential travel to Al Udeid Airbase.

It would wholly depend on what strikes the US engage in and whether Iran can take further strikes if it retaliated and how it would retaliate. A lot of ifs and maybes at this moment

I am not an expert on Iran's missile capabilities. I know there are fears they may target Qatar's and Saudi's oil infrastructure, but the US has enhanced defences in the Gulf to protect Qatar, especially post-Israel/Iran strikes.

If they use standoff munitions (long range) aircraft then they need to move just within a range for aircraft to take off and be able to launch their missiles from
