Three possibilities here:
1) Starmer is completely thick
2) Starmer thinks we're all completely thick
3) Starmer doesn't care what we think, he just likes lying

Hardly surprising as the UK military base now poses a risk to Cyprus civilians by allowing USA warplanes to use their base!
Iran: "Under the new policy, Iranian forces are prohibited from targeting neighboring states unless an attack against Iran is launched directly from that country’s territory."

Even Britain’s national media are giving the public notice of the UK’s government complicity in the imminent mass bombing of Iran.

Photo from the early 1970s of a man on horseback negotiating the Birmingham inner ring road at Holloway Head

I’m searching for the original and/or rights owner of this fabulous picture of Birmingham in the early 1970s. It popped up on my Instagram feed, but I’ve been unable to track it down.

Any leads? I’m really hoping to use it in a book.

(And would much appreciate a RT please)

I'm more worried about the nut clusters allowing the UK to be complicit in enabling the USA in this shit show!

Another dilema for the UK military base in Cyprus! If they are allowing the USA to use their base (even for defensive purposes πŸ€₯) are they endangering UK personnel and placing the citizens of Cyprus at risk to Iran attack!!

Trump accused of 'hitting schoolgirl who refused to perform sex act' The documents reveal an unidentified woman told FBI agents shortly after Epstein's arrest for sex trafficking in 2019 she was assaulted by Epstein and Mr Trump (both pictured) as a teen in the 1980s.

"Trump accused of 'hitting schoolgirl who refused to perform sex act'."

Accused in Epstein files finally released while the eyes of Americans and the world are on his war against Iran.

Timing that's a coincidence or conspiracy?

That's a clever move by Iran....."Under the new policy, Iranian forces are prohibited from targeting neighboring states unless an attack against Iran is launched directly from that country’s territory."

Beside Israel's northern border fence, the bursts of machine-gun fire from inside Lebanon are loud and long, as new Israeli forces push in to take strategic positions near the border. The regular rumble of air strikes echoes over the shattered remains of Shia villages, destroyed during Israel's last ground war there in 2024. A senior military official said on Thursday that Israeli ground forces were taking additional hilltops inside Lebanon - a defensive operation, he said, to better protect Israel's northern communities. But there has been a significant military build-up here. On Friday morning we passed dozens of tanks and armoured bulldozers, newly-positioned right by the border, fuelling growing speculation that a full-scale ground invasion is planned.

Hundreds of thousands of Lebanese civilians have been fleeing Israeli air strikes in Lebanon over the past few days, less than 18 months after a ceasefire ended the last conflict with Israel in November 2024. During that war, Israel fought its way house to house through many Lebanese border villages. Their crushed remains still litter the landscape. But some Hezbollah fighters have reportedly returned to these areas, and Israel is now fighting its way through the area again. Without those assaults on Hezbollah in 2024, which left a key Iranian proxy severely weakened, Israel would have found it much harder to launch its current war on Iran - or the previous one in June last year - without a much higher cost at home.

This is the language used by the BBC to describe Israel's war on Lebanon www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Cited: IDF Chief of Staff, Israeli living near the border, another Israeli, an Israeli politician and a Israeli commentator. No one else.

The Lebanese are just numbers throughout the piece.

I agree Janet. But if you want to stop fly tipping, the waste and recycling centres need to stop charging people for using the tip!

Can't see the EU investing any energy in repairing the relationship when Farage could just tear it all down again in a few years time.

The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.

The Iranian defense strategy isn't opaqueβ€”it's transparent. It's firing at Israel and nations that host *American* bases. What's wholly inconsistent with that is the idea that it would attempt to bring the full force of NATO against it by firing on Turkey and a UK base in Cyprus.

About a year ago, Trump lectured Ukraine’s president that he had no cards.

Today, it seems, the US is begging Ukraine for interceptor drones.
