“For all we know, we could be in the middle of Keir Starmer’s finest hour”.

Starmer’s critics say he is imperiling the UK’s special relationship with the US...

But is it Donald Trump who's doing the damage?

All bollocks this, spouted by a complete imbecile. The next state visit we put him in stocks and throw rotten food at him. K?

There will be regression to the mean when people figure this out. Both reminiscent of Corbynism.

Punch a stranger in the face, and then in your statement under caution claim that you prevented getting a black eye yourself because the stranger might have been punched by someone else.

IFF should be a minimum for both Kuwait and the US. Something screwed up massively here.

The only good thing about the current situation is that gas and oil prices shooting up again will make it abundantly clear that abandoning net zero and not totally prioritising renewable energy sources is a really very bad idea.

Armilla patrol - Wikipedia

Usually my dad was part of the Armilla Patrol, which was a complete bugger for us because it meant he was gone for 6 months. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armilla...

My dad is as on patrol in the gulf throughout the 1970s and 80s in the Royal Navy. Fair to say that defensive actions have been taken there for ~50 years. UK doing the same thing now and allowing US to do so is reaffirming current policy, so does not need parliament.

It was also the last war fought for halfway good reasons with a clear aim and outcome. Like a handjob.

The truth is, the muscle activity required to get out of bed produces a greater acid load than climate change ever will. The results (if they’re even real) could also indicate people eat more things containing baking soda.

And they told us renewable energy was unreliable technology dependent on foreign governments.

"No new wars" really just meant "f*ck Ukraine" and everyone knew it.

Just want to note that 3am in Washington is like 11:30am in Tehran. The American people are the ones he snuck up on in the dead of night to conduct this illegal attack, not the purported enemy.

According to his YouTube channel, Jerry from Big Jet TV has suffered complications from heart surgery and has had two strokes. Currently in a stroke rehab unit. One of the most positive people on earth that guy.

Why has the world's first hydrogen double-decker fleet failed? The multi-million pound project in Aberdeen was meant to be the future of clean public transportation.

Oh look hydrogen buses failed because hydrogen is much worse than a BEV. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
