As Foreign Secretary, David Cameron tried to intimidate the Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Courts into dropping his Israeli arrest warrants.
A violation of international law - ignored by British news outlets.

They should be setting the agenda, not chasing about trying to placate voters of a party with five MPs who will never vote for them anyway.
It's not only disappointing... it's embarrassing
Were doomed to watch Starmer trying to beat Reform by trying to become ever more like Reform. Can someone teach the man politics please. Political parties are different, they appeal to different people for different things, and thats a good thing. Not everyone wants to vote Reform.

You can leave a window open, at night, in a bedroom for eg, with the light on, and when you come back hours later, there are almost no insects in the room. It used to be that the room would fill up with insects. I live in the countryside.
