This is just the most incredible chart...

if the UK government implements current policies on taxes and benefits, public debt is stable (contrary to what the OBR always mistakenly tells us)

The West has its own issues in that regard. Both within the EU and also NATO.

Hegemony over Sunni Arab Moslems, Persian imperialism, legitmized by being the champion of resistance to Israel & the West

The Arab League should gather & ask for all Iranian armed groups in their areas to be disarmed

Unity is strength, not an aberrant unilateralism.

The conflation of political leadership of the Ayatollah with Revolutionary governance was a tactic used in the overthrow of the Shah

To continue with it afterwards, was to risk perpetuating dynasty

Worse, confusing Islam with Persian empire restoration, Gulf & ME hegemony in place of the West.

The weakness of the Shia Moslem cult has always been its cult of the leader, a man, not God

Thus the fallen martyr, each time they lose a battle/war

The Sunni Moslem refer to the Koran & those of the faith & organise governance otherwise. Thus do not confuse faith in God with worldly matters.

Has Trump misunderstood Iran’s IRGC and the Basij forces? US president called for IRGC members to lay down their arms or face 'certain death'. Here's how he misunderstands IRGC.

How punch drunk is the Iranian IRGC, if they are seriously considering the son of the dead Ayatollah as his replacement?

From Shah's to the era of Assad's to the era of the Khamenei's?

Khomeini to president Khamenei (only a mid-level cleric) itself inferred an establishment nature to succession

‪The Rennie born in Stranraer Galloway would have been an interloper, the name is from the Renfrew & Angus-Fife areas.

It derives from Renfrew, or the Gaelic Raghnall (ruler) or the French name Raynaud.

Jenkins was one of the more Whig members of Labour. He supported electoral reform in 1998 before becoming a European MP

Edmund Burke was an Irish Anglican (and thus a Whig MP)

Long the hero of Conservatives, they also did not understand him. He was more comfortable holding their system to account

Review: Churchill by Roy Jenkins John Charmley reads Roy Jenkins's instinctive biography of Churchill and explains why the Tory party never understood him

He expressed himself in favour of "the old tolerant and generous practice of free entry and asylum to which this country has so long adhered and from which it has so greatly gained"

He sat with the Whigs until 1924.

He was regarded as more Whig than Tory, one of their last "great' historians.

Winston Churchill - Wikipedia

In 1904 Churchill opposed the government's Alien's Bill as it would "appeal to insular prejudice against foreigners, to racial prejudice against Jews, & to labour prejudice against competition".

The 1920s British air bombing campaign in Iraq British planes are involved in a third air campaign over Iraq in 23 years. But the RAF has bombed Iraq before - more than 90 years ago.

Shall I compare Starmer to a former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

In the 1920's, War Secretary Churchill managed the Iraq mandate by bombing.

He withdrew troops from Suez in 1954.

Israel launches new strikes on Iran as US identifies first American soldiers killed in conflict The four US Army reserve soldiers were killed in a drone strike in Kuwait on Sunday, one day after the US and Israel began the operation.

The Lebanese government has banned Hezbollah's military activities and demanded the group hand over its weapons to the state. Salam said Hezbollah's attacks on Israel showed disregard for the "will of the majority of Lebanese".
