The Iran war should be a lesson for Keir Starmer's Government. If you take a clear line on an issue where the public agree with you then it's your opponents who end up having to back down, not you

Very good question that!
Imagine my surprise! He can't lie straight in a flat bed
Farage continues to insist black is white, particularly when it's written in black and white on his party's social media.
The rest of us just insist he's a lying toerag.
The Hinkley C UK nuclear reactor will produce 3.2GW, it will cost £50bn.
For that the UK could have built 40GW of Wind Turbines in 1/5th of the time.
Which would even on the least windy days of the year produce TWICE as much electricity.
Nuclear is an unnecessary RIPOFF.
These dodgy car washes are getting beyond a joke !
Preposterous posing by the Frog Faced Fuhrer
Farage wonders what he’s going to say, having bigged up flying 4,500 miles out to Mar-A-Lago for “diner with Trump” to discuss the Chagos Islands with his “friend”
But Trump does a no show, instead staying somewhere else, totally ignoring Farage 🤭🤣🤣😂

Wokestergraph. It's the end of days lads. They'll be offering tips on vegan cooking next.
Reform doesn't appear to have agreed its policy on whether the UK should get involved in the US-Israeli war on Iran

Did Robert Jenrick do some sort of monkey paw thing where he loses a kilo everytime he says something awful?
Just his way of bashing Net Zero on behalf of his oil and gas mates. He’s an opportunistic little shit isn’t he?
As I watched him, for some reason, the words “opportunistic little shit” sprang to mind
I thought the best person to talk to Laura Kuenssberg about the important moral and ethical issues of the day would be Robert Jenrick, the man who overruled a planning decision to save a billionaire pornographer £45m in exchange for a £12,000 donation.
When I lived in France I used to buy books from a publisher aptly named “Le Livre de Poche”
Imagine how it makes us feel 😡🤬😤😖😠👿😾
Oh! Like Ukraine eh? FFS
You should have seen the musical episode of 2 pints of lager. Knob cheese 😁😁😁
Hesgeth is an idiot - he just claimed the sinking an Iranian vessel was the first sinking of a ship by torpedo since WW II - General Belgrano anyone?

Well they are probably the same people
Still waiting for the answer Nige.
Not only *did* they start this war, they have no idea how to finish it.
So I’m just waiting for Reform to start telling us that the Qatar situation means we should start fracking (of course they’ll keep quiet about the fact that it would take 10 years and thousands of sites to make anything happen)
