Donald J. Trump @realDonaldIrump X.com The United States has spent EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS fighting and policing in the Middle East. Thousands of our Great Soldiers have died or been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE.....
He’s right, you know. Wait…
These are war crimes, violations of the Geneva Conventions.
Increasingly I think we should turn the whole Trump cabinet over to the ICC to be tried at The Hague.
‘How will Europe respond to the fallout of a potential state collapse in Iran? Its territory and population vastly surpass those of Libya, Syria and Iraq; Iran becoming another failed state would create a dramatic humanitarian crisis and new migration flows towards Europe.’
Why does anybody listen to this arrogant idiot. He has far more influence than he should.
Now it all makes sense.
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to Fox: “Due to the temporary global oil gap, we may also unsanction other Russian oil.”
Continuity Badenoch is not the change I believe Labour promised in 2024.
Reporter: Looks like Russia is now helping Iran target and attack Americans.
Trump: That's a minor issue compared to what we're doing here. What a stupid question to ask right now. We're talking about something else.
WSJ: To help make the case on Iran, Graham traveled several times to Israel in recent weeks, meeting with members of the country’s intelligence agency...He spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, coaching him on how to lobby the president for action.

This is almost exactly what I said would happen on yesterday’s show. The conflicting & contradictory reasons given for the war, coupled with client journalists & pusillanimous politicians on both sides of the Atlantic, will enable him to claim ‘success’ when nothing remotely successful has happened.
I must apologise for Richard Stupid Tice not understanding that no gas or oil is ‘our own’ because Maggie Thatcher sold it off, so it is all sold by private companies on the global market. Norway did not sell theirs off and now have a sovereign wealth fund of £1.6trillion.
I keep reading about EU plans to prevent new members from becoming 'another Orban problem' (phasing in voting rights etc), but it feels like a fundamental misdiagnosis when the issue is with countries who have already been members for some time
The world health organization has found that the US and Israel have bombed several health facilities in Iran.
We have also bombed two ADDITIONAL schools this week, not counting the girls schools earlier. Making that 4 in total.
We are the bad guys in this illegal war.

There is no disguising it now. Mahmood (and the Labour party) are just evil bastards
Trump cut off supplies of Sidewinder missiles for Ukraine’s F-16s, which limited their ability to prevent Russian strikes on Ukraine’s cities during the dead of winter when Putin ramped up attacks. And yet, when we need help with interceptor drones for Iran, Ukraine offered them without hesitation.
Our understanding is that the police's entire "intelligence" basis for the raid was "a social media post about targeting the rich" rather than specific plans for any protests actions.
Trump has launched a war in the Middle East without a plan, without a strategy, and without any clear idea about where it leads or how it ends.
He has no clue what he’s doing in Iran. [Cartoon by Brendan Loper]
This Labour government is worse than my worst nightmare. They are congenitally incapable of doing the right thing.
This article was amended on 5 March 2026. An earlier version said low-skilled workers would “receive immediate access to welfare and social housing” if Labour did not make them wait longer to apply for settlement. In fact, settlement status only gives people the eligibility to apply for welfare and social housing, it does not give them instant or automatic access to such benefits. This has been clarified. From breaking news to huge investigative proje
Guardian has now [after my complaint] corrected Mahmood's deliberate & incendiary false claim settlement gives immigrants "immediate access to welfare and social housing".
Good for Gdn but embarrassing/shameful that Home Secretary deliberately misled the public for political gain like this.
Mindblowing story. The UK met most of the costs of a key propaganda tool used by the Israeli Government to launder its genocide in Gaza - then tried to cover up the fact it had done so.
WAR CRIME BY THE US.
An unarmed Iranian ship was takIng part in an Indian naval exercise, alongside the US.
The US withdrew and torpedoed the Iranian ship.
THEN the US refused to rescue the sailors, letting them drown.
This is treachery, cowardice, cruelty and a war crime of the highest order.

Complicity in an illegal war.
Also, sending fighter jets to a region where Iran’s reach is limited, is not defensive; it is objectively offensive.
Zelensky has done everything he possibly can to satisfy this admin while he fights a war of survival for his people. And the Trump admin has done nothing but repeatedly treat him with disrespect, scorn & ridicule. 2 days ago, Trump called him “PT Barnum.” This is how Z responds.
The US has suspended operations at their Kuwait embassy so American citizens there are on their own. Not that Donald Trump will care, alive or dead, Americans mean nothing to him unless he can profit from them.
Are they smoking crack? Israel is at fault here far. It also started wars on seven different fronts to hide its genocide in Gaza and this is the UK’s response
Your regular reminder than a large majority of voters - and overwhelming majority of Labour voters - favour giving settled migrants access to the welfare state after five years or less. The Home Secretary is not reforming rules in line with public opinion. She is doing the opposite.
Welcome to Farage-land, where it's not okay for Muslims to vote in elections, but it's okay for Reform to have overseas members and foreign billionaire backers...
This 2020 Trump speech is going viral.
They killed 180 children and their teachers in a double-tap strike on a school. The girls were 7 to 12 years old.
