Trump tore up that deal in 2018 thinking he was being macho
I’m old enough to remember when the USA and Iran had a nuclear deal, Iran wasn’t enriching weapons grade uranium and was permitting regular inspections by the IAEA.
When will Israel allow IAEA to inspect its own nuclear facilities?
John Healey: Iran must return to the route of diplomacy as thats the way to secure peace.
Oman, which was mediating talks between the US & Iran, said on Friday that a peace deal was within reach. The next day the US & Israel attacked.
Healey is treating us all like idiots.
"You don't rule out British aircraft taking part in offensive operations over Iran at some point?"
John Healey could unambiguously rule it out. He doesn't.
Losing a by-election so joining in a spot of illegal war for a treat
Starmer: UK planes 'in the sky' in Middle East Sir Keir Starmer is making a statement after this morning's strikes on Iran. Speaking at Downing Street, the prime minister said that British planes "are in the sky today" in the Middle East "as part of co-ordinated regional defensive operations to protect our people, our interests and our allies".
FFS.
Just rope the UK into the shit of the US and Israel.
Fuck off Labour.

I am getting really wound up with hearing that this campaign was fundamentally one in which a group who are 30% of the seat and are in no way homogeneous are why the Greens got 40% of the vote
turns out McSweeney and the Blue Labour gang were wrong and the out of touch woke liberal elite Bluesky echo chamber bubble was right
Labour leadership thought they won because they purged Corbyn and the left, when it looks like they actually won because the public was sick of the Tories.
*and* the Tories tried it and gifted Labour an 80 seat majority. So not just dumb with hindsight, but also dumb with foresight!
Labour's swing toward racism is perhaps the biggest unforced error in British political history; burnt their base to ashes and won them not a single vote on the right.
What else is there to say but: these people were warned and warned and warned again about this, going back well over ten years and further, and their constant response was: absolutely fuck you, you are all idiots and we are the smart, Sensible people whom understand what the public like and want.
Worth noting that even if Labour and the Greens had split the vote exactly evenly – the absolute worst case scenario for the stop Reform majority in the seat – Matt Goodwin still didn’t have enough votes to sneak a victory.
Neighbours are reporting receiving this letter claiming to be from a neighbour who is supposedly a former Labour voter who is now voting for Reform.
No imprint but in a shock coincidence the same thing happened in the Caerphilly by election, would you believe.

Capitalism is crazy bc private equity firm can somehow manage to bankrupt a company responsible for multiple industry standards and still come out completely unharmed lol
Native Instruments is *massive*. Figuratively and literally (one of their largest soft synths is called Massive).
And they were bought out by US private equity.
There is nothing America can't fuck up.
And there ya have it…
Officials from top Wall Street firms will be traveling to Venezuela to investigate “investment prospects” of the country. “The trip will feature about 20 officials from the finance, energy and defense sectors.”
This made me sad (from that article).
One interesting nugget in this piece could explain the (otherwise baffling) appearance of Ramsay MacDonald in a 2024 Labour Party Election Broadcast
I keep coming back to this bizarre claim. What do they think the Labour Party is? When was at it best? When it couldn’t win a majority or hold power for more than a couple of years? When it was torn apart and almost wiped out? Deeply weird stuff
Three chocolate bars in blue wrappers with the text Tax wealth not work.
Another Labour budget of missed opportunities.
Communities are hurting, people are struggling.
Now is the time for bold politics not tinkering around the edges.

Russia's ambassador to the UK, Yakovenko, boasted about Brexit to another diplomat:
“We have crushed the British to the ground. They are on their knees and will not rise for a very long time”
Today, Farage’s close ally, leader of Reform in Wales, was sentenced to 10yrs for taking bribes from Russia.
Richard Tice, March 2025:
"I have never met Nathan Gill, and he has never had anything to do with Reform,"
Laura Kuenssberg, "Zack Polanski, the new Green leader, making a big impression"
Just not big enough to be inviting on as often as Reform UK are
Tbf, Chris Mason is far too busy spending 3 months investigating expense claims from 15 years ago that were audited and cleared by Reeves' employers when they happened. And Kuenssberg has her work cut out trying to be a lobby-correspondent/gossip-columnist version of Dot Cotton. 🤔
The party who claim to be patriots literally had a Reform leadership member caught red handed taking bribes from Russia.
This article details the speeches Nathan Gill gave that he was paid to give.
How are Reform getting away with this?
