Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.

No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.

Worth a watch.

What a disgrace that Russia is competing under its own flag

Time to abandon the World Cup this year. Just rearrange it next year in a sane country.

This is a terrifyingly non-specific and opaque word salad in response to an essential question: what are our objectives?

The Pentagon appears to have zero clarity on what it is doing and why. Be afraid.

Comrade Farage lost, Tories lost their deposit and Raving Loonies got more votes than Ben Habib

Just finished watching this. What an appalling indictment of this country that this kind of corruption and contempt (plus things like Teesworks) carries on regardless. I remember the joy of people buying water shares in the Thatcher era knowing they were on to a fast buck. Well here`s the payback

As someone who lives in Lancashire I wish to apologise that other residents are brainless enough to vote for these idiots

I am amazed that anyone pays any credence to this lot. They are as mad as a box of spanners

Who's the billionaire behind London’s biggest mass eviction? He's the London philanthropist who says he's committed to solving homelessness. So why is Asif Aziz's Criterion Capital rushing to make hundreds of Londoners homeless in the coming weeks?

London’s β€œworst mass eviction in recent history” is underway; hundreds of households across London told to get out of their homes this week by the same landlord, ahead of the renters rights act. The landlord? Billionaire Asif Aziz’s Criterion Capital. www.londoncentric.media/p/asif-aziz-...

Estimated legal costs of Β£2.4 million. Yes the world has gone mad.

Really shocking that the International Paralympic Committee has decided to allow Russian and Belarusian athletes to participate under their countries' flags. Even the IOC, an organisation with an extensive history of corruption, hasn't stooped this low. This is really damaging to the Paralympics.

There`s nothing much live about them at all. Bunch of failed con men with Russian funding and the kiss of death for reason and democracy

Isn`t he after public money (a lot) to build a new stadium for his team (most of whom are immigrants?) If he paid his tax there might be a bit more to go round

The same man migrated his head office from Britain to Switzerland, supported Brexit and then migrated himself to Monaco avoiding Β£4 billion in tax.

A nasty piece of work

I think money for affordable housing and improved transport might change more of a game. World Cup and Olympics now tarnished with a lot of hype. Fortune spent on Winter Olympics competitors who have no relevance to anything much.
