🚨NEW: Al Carns on a potential oil and gas drilling in North Sea reform:
"If we're still using oil and gas (which we are), importing it instead of producing it at home doesn't change the climate impact. It does change who gets the jobs, who gets the tax revenues to fund our public services and who controls our energy security and national resilience. This is absolutely the right call."

Losing to Argentina is more damning on Tuchel than defeat v Croatia/Italy/Spain are on Southgate.
Those three nations were better than England, Argentina were not.
But they looked it after Tuchel’s change to a back five, we hired him to do the opposite.

@bilehdalmar Because they avoided every war, literally every region around them has been in turmoil in the last decade... they decided to take a back seat
The OBR warns that Britain's economy is on an unsustainable footing as an ageing population puts ever more pressure on the public spending. Much of it is driven by the triple lock
* Health spending is projected to rise from 8% of GDP in 2030/31 to 13% of GDP by 2075-76
* State pension spending is projected to rise from 5% of GDP to around 9% of GDP by 2075-76
* Education spending is expected to fall from 4.3% of GDP to 3.4% of GDP because there are fewer children
* The baseline scenario forecasts that spending will rise from 40% of GDP to 49% of GDP
@SuldanMohamed_ Are you going to quote tweet that the Defence Minister said there will be no Israeli military base.
Or will you continue to push that lie? I notice you gave up on the Palestinian relocation point. Not many cards left to play with now do you?
Can't reverse it, can't stop it.
I can now confirm that Israel formally requested access to the Iran MoU and was denied. A remarkable and highly unusual development between close allies on an issue of such critical national security importance.
Israeli outlet Israel Hayom reports, in a claim not yet echoed by other major outlets, that President Trump is weighing the dismissal of several senior administration figures who opposed the Iran deal, including Defense Secretary Hegseth and CIA Director Ratcliffe.
“The argument has been settled. Those who opposed it may pay a personal price,” a senior U.S. official was quoted as saying about the behind-the-scenes turmoil.
According to the report, Secretary of State Marco Rubio appears to be safe for now.
