This is not only morally reprehensible, but a breach of the UN Refugee Convention.

No refugee should be discriminated against on the basis of how they entered the country

Foreign minister Lord Collins: "Where states fail to properly investigate [war crimes], the ICC has a right to step in."

We agree.

The UK is not investigating UK ministers. The

How Britain helped Iran’s Islamic regime destroy the left-wing opposition Britain supported Iran’s new Islamic regime in crushing last remaining opposition, while a UK official joked about Iran’s torture techniques.

On this day in 1979, Western leaders were convulsed by Ayatollah Khomenei's assumption to power in Iran.

Flying implies control.

Trump is being defeated in fed courts on a daily basis. Which means a choice of complying with the courts' orders or defying them. If the latter, the fed courts can only enforce through US marshals, AFAIK, who are governed by the US dept of Justice, a fed agency under control of the White House.

Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed.

Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly.

Yet another reason he must be rejected.

Now they want to rename Greenland to be “Red, White and Blue Land” and yes this is the dumbest timeline.

It seems like Musk and Trump want to turn America into the setting for The Walking Dead, but with MAGAs instead of zombies.

Israel are continuing to shoot at, and kill, Palestinians who are returning home. Is it such a surprise that Hamas have said they won’t release more hostages?

UK ministers 'stand in way of international law' on Israel arms sales

Selling weapons and giving diplomatic support to war criminals is never acceptable.

Disturbing: new survey shows that 41% of 18-27 year olds would not fight for the UK under any circumstances.

Why would anyone fight for a nation where 70% of the wealth is held by the richest 1% and 80% of that is in tax havens.
