Calls that need to grow louder faster up to the point where even the kings advisors hear the message.
Not entirely sure we can trust the government to do the right thing.

Golly gosh, 7!
Now, remind me, how many Iranian children have the Americans killed?

Chucking out the US and Israel would do wonders for regional stability. Massive improvement.

Truth coming home to roost.
Comforting? not meant to be.
Bang on the money? Absolutely.

Why give trump the 'out' of being blackmailed?
Could just be that he's an evil narcissistic, misogynistic racist like Netanyahu and Putin.

Legitimate target? just like unarmed Iranian ships, an Iranian girls school, unarmed Palestinian children/medics/educators and so on.
Wouldn't surprise me if every US or Israeli asset or emplacement is now painted as a target for retribution.
It's now about how much else becomes collateral damage.

Dear Shabana, I notice today that you referred to me in your speech on immigration at the IPPR think tank. You said: “A party leader should not be on the beaches of France encouraging people to make a perilous crossing on small boats.” I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised especially after the hateful Labour campaign in Gorton and Denton, but this is just the latest in a string of lies peddled by a discredited Government who intentionally fan the flames of racism and division. When I went to Calais, I was not there to encourage people to travel to the UK. I was there to see at first hand the suffering your Government and successive Governments have done in demonising migrants in a pathetic bid to pander to the base instincts of Reform and the flawed strategy of Morgan McSweeney. As you will know, if you even bothered to research my visit instead of taking Reform talking points, I was there to witness the brutality of families living in tents in freezing temperatures. I filled water tanks and picked up litter. What that visit did do is confirm my belief that if we are to smash the boat gangs and stop the boats, we need to offer safer and managed routes for migrants to come to this country. Showing compassion as a politician is not a crime. In fact, we need to see much more of it. It reminded me of a young MP who in October 2015 spent three days in Lesbos helping migrants fleeing war-torn Syria. She posted videos on X, talked about handing out water and croissants to refugees and food parcels. When she returned to the UK, she wrote a very moving piece in the New Statesman. She said “we have to work with our European partners and create new, safe, and legal routes for refugees to get to Europe. We cannot abandon them to their fate, left as prey for smugglers whilst risking death on the seas.” She said “maybe we can make ourselves feel better by saying no-one is making them get on the boats. And again, the Home Secretary is not entirely wrong when …

Dear Shabana,

Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

Agreed, very rare to watch live TV. Record everything & fast forward ads.
Rugby exception though.
Seriously pissed with @itvsport.bsky.social trashing the 6 Nations Rugby with 10 second micro adverts if there's a stoppage.
Really bolloxes the enjoyment.

@itvsport.bsky.social are you listening!!

Before anyone says anything - yes there's a fair bit of generalising in that.
IMPE the oldies I know are r/wing, doting on the rose-tinted past, not adapting to change & not considering next 30 yrs at all. Youngsters are broadly the exact opposite as they have to live through the shit left for them

No surprise there.
Throw in voting tendency & it gets worse.
The old folks are more likely to vote. Old folks also have no future to consider (closer to death).
Youngsters have the most to gain but have been dismissed too often.
Middle age prob depends more on regionality & cultural exposure.

Should bury the 🍊💩🫟 in the foundations.
Then make like the wannabe pharaoh and bury the sycophants at the same time.

Unreal that in today's 'informed' age, one deranged person can be the cause of so much heartbreak and destruction.

Maybe following the family tradition started when his great (x1?) grandfather, Fredrich, was thrown out of Germany for dodging military service in 1885.
Stripped of citizenship in 1905.

Sometimes just having a sounding board makes it worth the time we spend. Even if so far down the political food chain that neither of our governments will hear our opinions.
Vent (or discuss) and move on. Stay chill.

If anything like Afghanistan they're screwed. Invaded 3x by the Brits, failed 3x; Russians x3, failed x3; US spent 20yrs & failed. Last conquered 1385.
Iran has about 4,500 years of warfare to lean on. The US is barely out of preschool.

Is that going to change much given all the noise we've had about the military being bound to ignore illegal orders?
Allegedly the generals could just turn round and say 'no' if they were that bothered by it.
Way easier said than done.

Very Putinesque, just like blaming Ukraine for starting that war.
The US will finish when Netanyahoo lets them go home.

Higher education *and* multi-cultural exposure.

He'll probably send them a big Mac voucher. Seems to be trumps idea of honouring anyone.

Beat me to it. 💯👍

He's doing his Zionist duty and supporting the genocidal lunatics.

The racist underbelly thrives on suppression of facts, stoking discontent & pandering to hatred to drive sensationalism and readership.
I never understand why moderately successful offspring of immigrants hate immigrants so much.

Very trumpian.

Therein lies democracy's weakness.
Democracy depends on the tacit agreement of all parties to follow & uphold the law.
If a leader says 'nah, sod that' & a large enough group follows suit, enabling said leader without pushback, then democracy will struggle to contain them.

After Corbyn, UK Labour elects Keir Starmer, Zionist with Jewish wife, as leader New opposition chief immediately apologizes to Jews for anti-Semitism in ranks, vows to 'tear out this poison'; his wife comes from a Jewish family, has relatives in Tel Aviv

'defensive'...🤣🤣🤣
Iran is not a British war, it's an Israeli/US war for no good reason. All he's done is endanger the UK & UK military, no doubt there will be retaliation.
Even the Times of Israel calls him a Zionist with a Jewish wife, which explains a lot.

Oi! She's light-years behind Whitesnake.

A good sign you're worrying them.

Stay strong from across the pond.🤘

The most destructive vote after Brexit would be for farage.
Reform voters need to look at the maga voters to see their future.
Less healthcare, fewer jobs, higher prices, pollution and destruction. That is their future & too damn stupidly racist to see it.

Labour is not standing against genocide, is not protecting the environment, is not linking w/ Europe, is not hitting the super rich tax dodgers, is not calling out trump, is lurching to the right, is kissing trumps arse, is supporting Zionism...
No wonder votes are lost to Green Party and Lib Dems
