Iran shouldn't have to be launching missiles at Israel, because Europe should be opposing Israel's illegal invasion and Ethnic Cleansing of Lebanon.

It seems Europe ignores War Criminals when those War Criminals are bribing their politicians with pathetic sums of money.

The ‘Great Israeli Real Estate Event’ is to be held in London this Sunday.

This disgraceful event will involve the sale of land stolen from Palestinians in illegal Israeli settlements.

Today, I called for the Government to ban this event.

🚨 This Is What Journalism Looks Like.

Kristen Welker asked for evidence.

Trump attacked the media.

She asked again.

🔥 We need more reporters willing to keep pressing when powerful people refuse to answer simple questions.

The press isn’t supposed to be popular with politicians.

It’s supposed to hold them accountable.

‘You have done a better job than any cabinet minister of telling us the story of Keir Starmer’s successes.’

As Wes Streeting resigns, Caller Martin reminds @TomSwarbrick1 of what the PM has delivered.

Donald Trump posted 55 times on social media between 10:00 pm and 1 am. His posting spree included calls to arrest Obama, Clinton, Comey etc. He also attacked his own DOJ for not charging them with treason.

This man is not well. 25th Amendment now.

I always felt like George Carlin was on the liberal side. Turns out I was wrong. He was right down the middle and found many issues on both sides. He had no problem calling it out. The man was brilliant and definitely ahead of his time. Too bad he wasn't here now. 🔥🤣🔥🤣🔥

Extraordinary allegations from @benhabib6 !!
Ben Habib alleges that Nigel Farage & Boris Johnson were paid £1m each by Christopher Harborne to essentially rig the election in favour of Johnson. He also claims the undeclared £5m "gift" Farage received in 2024 from Harborne was payment for Farage to take over as party leader of Reform UK and stand in Clacton.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Whatever complaints MPs have about Keir Starmer, they are now descending into the kind of headless chickenry that - whatever and whoever the outcome - will make the situation even worse for Labour. If there is a grand plan starring Catherine West and a few PPSs, then it doesn’t feel terribly thought through. A period of calm would do none of them any harm. The general election is a fair way off. The next legislative programme is about to be unveiled. There are better ways to reach such an important decision and better times too. You are MPs not commentators who exist to feed a frenzy.

Gaza: Doctors Under Attack wins a BAFTA Award

Executive Producer Ben de Pear, "Just a question for the BBC, given you that you dropped our film will you drop us from the BAFTA TV screening later on tonight?"

And guess what, they edited it to this shorter version

Farage is a crook, and will lead Britain in the direction
of American politics, where money is the only thing that matters
