This is ridiculous. @seashepherd are a fantastic organisation! This list that the UK government has created is honestly absurd. We’re living in a frightening state.
Downing Street has announced plans to mark Britain's departure from the EU on 31 January which include a special Cabinet meeting outside of London, a special address from the Prime Minister and a light display outside No. 10 with a clock counting down to 11pm
My seminar leader just spent two hours referring to post-structuralism ad ‘posty’
Are we discussing the usefulness of post malone? Or the usefulness of post structuralist thought in the study of security? I’m not sure but I love it.
Boris Johnson says that the 'strict issue' of the legality of the assassination of Soleimani 'is not for the UK to determine since it was not our operation'
But he says the US is entitled to defend itself and Soleimani 'had the blood of British troops on his hands'
Really poor example from the PM here, several conflicts he referenced are either 1) funded by the UK through arms deals or 2) conflicts the UK have had a direct hand in through intervention (Syria)
"That man had the blood of British troops on his hands."
Boris Johnson responds to Jeremy Corbyn's request for evidence that the killing of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani "was not an illegal act by the United States."
It's odd that Dominic Raab is calling for Iran to stop the "dangerous attacks", and not to escalate the situation in #Iran. I don't recall him urging America to take responsibility, or to desist from its aggression, in those terms. Am I missing something?
