Tony Benn: 'Don't Arab and Iraqi women weep when their children die?'. His speech during the House of Commons debate on going to war in Iraq - 17 February 1998. One of greatest anti war speeches of all time:

“I was in London in the blitz in 1940, living in the Millbank tower, where I was born. Some different ideas have come in since. And every night, I went down to the shelter in Thames house. Every morning, I saw dockland burning. Five hundred people were killed in Westminster one night by a land mine. It was terrifying.

Aren't Arabs terrified? Aren't Iraqis terrified? Don't Arab and Iraqi women weep when their children die? Does bombing strengthen their determination? What fools we are to live in a generation for which war is a computer game for our children and just an interesting little channel for news item.

Every Member of Parliament tonight who votes for the Government motion will be consciously and deliberately accepting responsibility for the deaths of innocent people if the war begins, as I fear it will. Now that's for their decision to take. But this is a quite unique debate. In my parliamentary experience, where we are asked to share responsibility for a decision we won't really be taking, with consequences for people who have no part to play in the brutality of the regime which we are dealing with.”

LOL. GB News issued a live apology to Meghan’s mom, Doria Ragland, but later deleted the entire show from YouTube to suppress the embarrassment. Share the full clip widely, people. #HarryAndMeghan @I_amMukhtar
Carole Malone was threatened with a lawsuit unless she apologised.😂

According to Politico, Farage is trying to encourage the USA to use trade sanctions against the UK to change our laws.

That’s right.

Farage wants sanctions against the United Kingdom.

Farage, the “patriot”.

So, acc to this extract of Valentine Lowes new book the Queen was a Remainer, and Cameron chose to not share that with the public.
Instead Michael Gove spread the untrue rumour she would back Brexit to the Sun and that was that.
Always thought so.

No, they are not, and no, they are not. The Magna Carta gives you personally no rights, and Common Law is not what you think. And yes, the EHRC spectacularly does give us rights we don't otherwise have. Please read about this before talking any more.

Is the royal family going to ignore team UK at the #InvictusGames again?

The RF is gravely embarrassed over the Invictus becoming such a global success, in the 5yrs Prince Harry has been free of them restricting him, dimming his light for Willy to almost shine #InvictusGames2025

What has the ECHR ever done for us?

Quite a lot actually, and we wrote it too.

[Ignite International @lgniteCoin]

I see ECHR is trending again.

And this will blow your mind. There are people on this platform suggesting we should leave the ECHR

Which translates as these absolute melts looking at the list below, and saying 'Yeah I don't think I should have these rights.'

Astonishing.

[Mark English @EULondonMark]

@PippaCrerar My idea of 'my country's security' involves being secure in the knowledge its citizens have ECHR protection against abuses of power. And that would-be authoritarians in neighbouring countries also face constraints.
