Does City AM ever debate “is the UK financial sector just too big?”

Israel attacking Iran's oil fields is completely against our interests. Not only will it increase oil prices, something US has said many time we don't want, but it will also lead to Iran bombing oil fields of Gulf countries. Double the disaster. Israel is the worst "ally" ever.

attack on Iran continues to push up the price of energy around the globe, note that it will be central banks who further exacerbate the cost of living crisis on ordinary people.

As we prepared for central bank meetings over the course of this week, and it’s important to reiterate how absurd their logic is around interest rates. We know that inflation is going to go up because the cost of oil is going up. We also know that there is no linkage between…

raising interest rates and lower energy prices. if anything, making it more expensive for energy companies to borrow is not going to increase the likelihood that they decide to charge less for their products. In fact, the opposite impulse is true. So as Trump and Israel’s illegal

Israel is displacing millions in Lebanon, while continuing a genocide in Gaza, while occupying the West Bank, while invading Syria, while bombing Iran. And somehow I’m supposed to believe that Iran is the biggest state sponsor of terrorism.

Things will not improve in this country until democrats realize Americans are stupid and must be tricked into having their basic needs met. Do you explain medicine to your dog or do you cover it’s pills in peanut butter?

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.

Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.

We live in Orwellian times.

@ZackPolanski One of the reasons I had to cancel my subscription to the economist was the near complete mental breakdowns it had about Bernie sanders in the US, and Corbyn in the UK. Absolutely deranged levels of ad hominem attacks and incoherent economics.

[Zoe Gardner @ZoeJardiniere]

Ysee we actually have to fully stop centering these disgusting racist pieces of shit in our politics entirely.

I’m sick to fucking death of being told to understand & relate to these nasty fucks.

Fuck every last one of them & every politician who panders to them.

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

This is just one trick media use to manufacture consent for war.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

The President of Spain is correct.

This is leadership.

We should be pushing for peace - and not jumping into another illegal war.

BBC journalists have been banned from describing the kidnapped Venezuelan leader as having been kidnapped.

The BBC News Editor has sent this to BBC journalists.

@MJtweetings @TheNewsAgents @jonsopel @lewis_goodall He said he’s going to run the country. What would you call that!? Maybe think before you tweet next time.

Bombing Venezuela while coordinating a genocide in Palestine while threatening to attack Iran (again) while destabillizing Somalia while carrying out a heist in the DRC...

US imperialism is the greatest threat to peace and security in our world today and it's not even close.

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

This argument means that any time a president wants to invade a country "legally," he just has to get his DOJ to indict the country's leader. It makes Congress' power to declare war totally meaningless.
