Britain Is Facing an Energy Crisis
Social media is awash with frustration, as users complain that the government is doing next to nothing to tackle the worsening energy crisis.
Aaron Bastani: A country with 2/3rds the population…
A country with 2/3rds the population of *Russia*, a highly cohesive ruling class forged in adversity and struggle, overseeing an advanced economic and technological base. But because it’s brown, Washington and Tel Aviv thought it would fold like Venezuela. No deeper than that.
Daniel Lacalle: Trump announces peace deal…
Trump announces peace deal with Iran following negotiations with Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, Jordan & Israel. Strait of Hormuz to reopen. Final details being finalized. Could be a historic diplomatic breakthrough for regional stability
Bushra Shaikh: The way that I read…
The way that I read the illegal war on Iran is quite simple really. The U.S left Iran no choice but to take American power on and WON. This is a HUGE statement for sovereign nations looking on who thought it wasn't possible.
Lee Hurst: That’s a win for the Islamic Regime…
That’s a win for the Islamic Regime. A massive loss for the Iranian people. Terrorism will continue to be exported. One morning we will wake up to find a third party has gifted nukes to the Ayatollahs, that will be Trump’s legacy.
Azzam Tamimi: Iranian commentators opposed to the Tehran government…
Iranian commentators opposed to the Tehran government are clearly disappointed that Iran is coming out of the war victorious. They'd have wished for the war to continue until a regime change is achieved. Well, hard luck. All Mossad preparations and plotting have come to nothing.
Andrew Bridgen: Timeline of US-Iran negotiations…
Timeline of US-Iran negotiations over the past 4 days: May 21: Finalizing deal May 22: Not close to reaching deal May 23: Deal expected to be finalized tomorrow May 24: Deal will not be finalized today @BRICSNews
Pouria Zeraati: He doesn't like being compared to Obama…
He doesn't like being compared to Obama :)) Trump's post: 'If I make a deal with the I.R., it will be a good and proper deal; not like Obama, who gave them a ton of cash and left a completely open path for them to get nuclear weapons. Our deal will be exactly the opposite of that, but no one has seen it yet or knows what it is. It hasn't even been finalized. So don't listen to the losers who criticize something they have no clue about. Unlike the people before me who should have solved this problem years ago, I won't make a bad deal!'
Ayesha Ijaz Khan: This war started because Israel fooled the US…
This war started because Israel fooled the US. This war is ending because the US learned that the hard way. But it has learnt. What happens next won't be good for Israel. That's why it's itching for a continuation of the war.Daniel Lacalle: Trump announces peace deal with Iran…
Trump announces peace deal with Iran following negotiations with Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, Jordan & Israel. Strait of Hormuz to reopen. Final details being finalized. Could be a historic diplomatic breakthrough for regional stability
Bushra Shaikh: Fascinating to watch the outrage…
Fascinating to watch the outrage over the alleged plot to assassinate Ivanka Trump, by the very people who celebrated actual assassinations of multiple Islamic Republic leaders, their wives, children and families. Get in the bin.
Howard Beckett: No ceasefire in Lebanon…
No ceasefire in Lebanon 🇱🇧 Instead, Israel 🇮🇱 continue it’s war crime Video of a ‘double tap’ airstrike in southern Lebanon 🇱🇧 Israel 🇮🇱 targets & murders 6 health workers Health workers protected by the Geneva Convention Targeted by 🇮🇱 terrorism Expel 🇮🇱 from the UN now.Daniel Lacalle: The US does not need to bow…
The US does not need to bow to Iran’s threats. Every day, the “Hormuz weapon” loses power as American oil production, exports, and alternative routes make the global energy system more resilient. Tehran can rattle the chokepoint, but it can no longer hold the world economy hostage. When a supplier or infrastructure owner stops understanding its position and starts using its initial advantage to damage and blackmail its customers, it is really signing its own death warrant. What looked like dominance becomes a countdown to irrelevance. Graphs via Bloomberg and BNE Intellinews.Pouria Zeraati: Important/ Trump's post…
Important/ Trump's post: 'Just now had a very good call with Mohammed bin Salman from Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Zayed from the UAE, Emir Tamim bin Hamad from Qatar, Qatar's Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman, Minister Ali Al-Thawadi, Field Marshal Asim Munir from Pakistan, Recep Tayyip Erdogan from Turkey, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi from Egypt, King Abdullah II from Jordan, and the King of Bahrain; about the Islamic Republic and all matters related to a peace agreement. A large part of the deal has practically been negotiated and arranged, just needs to be finalized between the United States, the Islamic Republic, and the other countries I mentioned. Apart from that, I also had a call with Bibi Netanyahu that went very well. Now the details and final parts of the agreement are being reviewed and will be announced soon. One of the important parts of this agreement is that the Strait of Hormuz will be opened.'
Cameron Hudson: RSF 'to cut flow of oil unless Sudan army drone strikes cease.'…
RSF 'to cut flow of oil unless Sudan army drone strikes cease.' That is a considerable threat, but couldn't just the SAF threaten to blow up RSF diamond mines? There is a certain degree of mutually assured destruction, no?
Rory Synnott: British nationals were kidnapped…
British nationals were kidnapped in international water, taken to Israel, and then subjected to cruel and unusual punishment, filmed with the presence of an Israeli minister. And the best this government can offer is summoning the chargé d'affaires? Close the embassy. Cowards.
Martin Daubney: CONFIRMED: ALL SEVEN ARE AFGHAN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS…
CONFIRMED: ALL SEVEN ARE AFGHAN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS: Seven men, all Afghan nationals and refugees, have been charged with 40 offences · Five arrived illegally in Britain by small boat; two by lorry @CDP1882
Andrew Feinstein: Israel is depraved in a way…
Israel is depraved in a way that not even apartheid South Africa was. Apartheid, through its racism, dehumanised many white South Africans. This seems to have gone even further in Israel where any pretence of humanity or decency has been obliterated by racist dehumanisation & unimaginable violence, evil & psychotic sadism
Diane Abbott: Many MPs have already supported…
Many MPs have already supported this Early Day Motion. It notes that higher prices and shortages are being caused by Trump's war on Iran and the US blockade. It argues government should be aiming to end the war. If you agree, you can contact your MP.Cameron Hudson: RSF defections…
RSF defections: a turning point in Sudan's war? This asks the good question, what if Hemedti were to defect? Would he face the same lack of accountability? Recent defections, and their poor public response, demands SAF find an answer before peace talks.
Alex Wickham: The foreign office has sent...
Exclusive with @EllenAMilligan The foreign office has sent redundancy letters to the Iran crisis team that is leading the UK’s response to the war Around half of the officials in the unit are expected to take up the offer, which comes as part of severe FCDO job cuts The crisis team works around the clock in a windowless bunker to support British nationals and work on policy and scenario planning Officials find out in the coming days if their jobs are being kept or not The redundancies in the Iran team are happening just as Trump mulls new strikes on Tehran and the crisis threatens to escalateCameron Hudson: The SAF and its intelligence services...
"The SAF and its intelligence services identify RSF commanders whose tribal loyalties are fraying, offer guarantees and then publicize the defection for maximum psychological effect." An excellent look at what recent RSF defections mean for the war.
Patrick Henningsen: After punishing their population with...
After punishing their population with economic warfare & brutal embargo, you really think you’re their friend. This corrupt old man will go down in history as a sadistic criminal & a footman for organized crime & the corrupt Israel Lobby. Nothing Trump can say or do will reverse that inevitability…Howard Beckett: Irish 🇮🇪 peace activists amongst...
Irish 🇮🇪 peace activists amongst the Flotilla Beautifully singing ‘Amazing Grace’ in Irish 🇮🇪 Before being kidnapped at gunpoint by 🇮🇱 pirates dressed as ‘army’ in international waters off the coast of Turkey 🇹🇷 Israel 🇮🇱 is a pariah state Expel 🇮🇱 from the UN now.Andrew Bridgen: US and Iran closer to clinching...
US and Iran closer to clinching draft deal “Serious efforts are underway” to finalize a draft agreement between the US and Iran, Al Arabiya reports. Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff Asim Munir is expected to visit Iran on May 21 to announce that the deal has been clinched.Pouria Zeraati: The vibe of Trump's, Rubio's, and...
A note: The vibe of Trump's, Rubio's, and even Vance's statements differs from the news that the media, especially Arab media, are trying to convey. On the American side, nothing is final. In Israel, the atmosphere is that the operation hasn't been canceled. In Tehran, still count on the clerics' bullshit. Mojtaba won't agree to the uranium withdrawal. Sensitive days lie ahead…Pouria Zeraati: «New York Times» quoting U.S. officials…
«New York Times» quoting U.S. officials: On the first day of the war, the Israeli Air Force attacked Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's house. The goal was to somehow free him from 'house arrest' and, after eliminating Khamenei, position him to take control of the country. According to these officials, Israel, with U.S. knowledge, prepared a plan to bring Ahmadinejad to power after weakening the current regime, and this had been conveyed to him as well. But the attack didn't go as it should have. Ahmadinejad was accidentally wounded in that strike; an attack targeting a security post on the street where several IRGC members who had effectively taken him hostage were killed. Since the attack, no one has seen him publicly, and it's now unclear where he is or what his condition is. ••• ••• ••• In this regard/ Sources in Israel to me: Ahmadinejad is still under a form of house arrest, and even his communication with his family is controlled.
Felix Rex: Don't be so hard on them…
Don't be so hard on them. These people bet everything on Trump. They put their last remaining hopes for a brighter future in him. They have spent the last decade forming their identities around MAGA. They literally don't even know who they are or what they stand for outside of MAGA. The writing has been on the wall for years and blue collar America has been decimated... they cannot bear the truth, that the jobs are not coming back, the immigrants are here to stay, the drugs will keep killing off their family members, the bills will keep stacking higher than their paychecks can reach, their hometowns will only crumble faster, the America they loved is gone and will never return. They can't swallow all of that it is too horrible. The irony is that they are supposedly Christians expecting the tribulations and awaiting the return of the Messiah.
Dominic Bradbury: The Govt just need to fuck…
The Govt just need to fuck off with their Fuel Duty freeze. We all know they've raked in £billions in extra revenue since the start of the Iran war. Cunts.Read more
