Commentator said that nobody will want to draw City in tomorrow's semi-final draw. I would.

Sounds like a Jasper Carrot gag.

The car was stationary, the wall was moving at the rotational velocity of the Earth.

Iran's "obliterated" air defences have shot down not 1 but 2 US aircraft in the last 24 hours. Given that one of the pretexts for the war was to destroy Iran's nuclear weapons program, which was apparently "obliterated" last June, perhaps the Pentagon and White House should invest in a dictionary and learn what the word actually means, ( to remove from existence : destroy utterly all trace ).

True, but when voting in a GE you take the position that the leader of the party you vote for is in effect your choice for PM. Everybody knew that Gordon Brown was Blair's anointed sucessor, Truss was foisted on the country against the wishes of even the Tory MPs.

Given the number of senior officials he has appointed who are directly linked to the fossil fuel industries, even if he himself is not personally benefitting there are plenty around him who will be.

No war has ever been won by air power alone. History is littered with examples of countries where civlian resistance has stiffened in the face of bombing campaigns rather than caving in, you would think the lesson of the failure of carpet bombing North Vietnam would still resonate with the US. Why does Trump think the Iranians are any different ?

Presumably she now agrees that the UK should stay out of the war.

Kemi Badenoch says something I agree with - speaking about Trump, "if you break it, you own it..... the "special relationship" is between the UK and the US, not between Donald Trump, and Keir Starmer.......He should now not be abandoning a mess that he's made, .......it doesn't feel like there is a co-ordinated plan, ( to end the war )...."

Pam Bondi has been sacked.

Trump talking about the important stuff in a Cabinet meeting during a war.....

Unelected PM. She was voted into Parliament as an MP from Norfolk, which probably explains a lot.

The UK imports almost all of it's oil from the US, Norway, Libya, and Nigeria. The problem is that a lot of our diesel comes from refineries in the Low Countries, which rely on imports from the Middle East.

Even the Supreme Court would not back him against Congress. The Law on elections is cast in stone, that is why so much effort is being put into gerrymandering, by both sides, and why Congress, with it's current balance of power, has proven unable pass the SAVE Act - he simply cannot command the majority needed to pass the Bill.

No, she's a Lancashire Lass. We met, and married, at university.
