Adam Brooks: Labour cancelled elections…
Labour cancelled elections… this is astonishing hypocrisy from Angela Rayner !!!
Lee Hurst: Massive, massive error...
Massive, massive error. The Tories will leapfrog Reform in the polls with this one policy announcement as they did Labour 20 years ago. FYI, the Tories then broke their promise and ended up having to do a coalition withe LibDems instead. We spend more in Overseas Aid than we do in income from Inheritance Tax.
Bushra Shaikh: Do not stop talking about...
Do not stop talking about Israel’s crimes against Palestinians. For far too long, Israel has acted with total impunity. Not anymore. Israel is not above the law. It must be held to account like any other government. The tide is turning. Keep the pressure on.
David Kurten: Do not trust any party...
Do not trust any party that will legislate against privacy and anonymity while pushing for more police powers against citizens.
Daniel Lacalle: Regions once sought independence...
Regions once sought independence to escape abusive and tyrannical governments. Now most seek secession not to expand freedom, but to build their own interventionist, bureaucratic and coercive state.
Ben Judah: UK government should urgently...
UK government should urgently convening in London and developing plans how to harden global access to bio-labs and anything a that could potentially print a virus from the risk of misaligned AI. This is the real deadly risk the AI giants are worried about.
Andrew Feinstein: Camden Labour led by their candidate...
Camden Labour led by their candidate to be Starmer’s replacement, have done everything possible to continue to financially support those engaged in genocide. The vast majority of Camden residents don’t want our council’s money invested in the machinery of slaughter. This Labour council is morally corrupt. In the Holborn & St.Pancras by-election let’s deliver the message that we reject not only Starmer but everything he stands for, including his complicity in genocide
Timothy Ash: Despite warnings from Bessent...
Despite warnings from Bessent, I don’t think a major Turkish institution is at risk of U.S. sanctions. Not after all the efforts to clear up the Halkbank case & as U.S. - Turkiye relations are improving fast, & Trump needs Erdogan on Iran, Syria, Gaza et al.
Pouria Zeraati: Important...
Important/ Despite the IRGC's firings toward ships in the Hormuz [Strait]—the latest of which was fired an hour ago from Sirik—CENTCOM says U.S. forces have rerouted and cleared 101 commercial ships; one more than yesterday's count. The regime is doing everything it can before the elections and on the eve of Khamenei's trip to America to drive up oil prices and convince Trump to return to the agreement. Sensitive days are ahead...
Andrew Bridgen: Iranian leader Mojtaba Khamenai...
Iranian leader Mojtaba Khamenai hit by the double blows of sanctions and a falling London property market? TWO LUXURY KENSINGTON PENTHOUSES LINKED TO KHAMENEI NETWORK PUT UP FOR SALE Two luxury penthouses in London’s exclusive Kensington district, linked by Western authorities to the financial network surrounding Iran’s Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, have reportedly been placed on the market after Iranian banker Ali Ansari was sanctioned and subsequently defaulted on mortgages secured against the properties. The apartments are at 3a Palace Green, close to Kensington Palace and the Israeli Embassy, and were purchased in 2014 and 2016 for £16.75 million and £19 million respectively, giving a combined purchase price of £35.75 million. One of the properties, a five bedroom duplex extending across approximately 3,944 square feet, is now being offered for just under £12 million. The asking price for the second penthouse has not been publicly disclosed. The properties are registered to Ali Ansari, an Iranian businessman and banker who was sanctioned by the United States Treasury in July 2026. US authorities have accused Ansari of overseeing a global network of companies and assets benefiting Khamenei, his family and other members of Iran’s ruling elite. European authorities have made similar findings, stating that Ansari used a network of companies to acquire substantial assets, including property in Britain and Europe, on behalf of people connected to the Iranian leadership, including Khamenei. Ansari has denied allegations concerning his links to the Iranian leadership. The British Government has also confirmed in Parliament that UK property belonging to Ansari has been frozen following sanctions. The reported sale of the two multimillion pound Kensington properties comes amid continuing scrutiny of Iranian linked wealth held in Britain and the international network of companies, financial interests and high value assets that Western authorities say has operated for the benefit of senior figures within the Iranian leadership. The penthouses are now reportedly heading onto the open market following the mortgage defaults, bringing two of the most valuable London properties connected to Ansari’s sanctioned financial network under renewed scrutiny.
Alex Wickham: EXCLUSIVE...
EXCLUSIVE: Andy Burnham is considering requests from Saudi Arabia for a range of military support to counter attacks from the Houthis, as the UK fears a “catastrophic” economic hit from a new front in the Iran war. The Saudi asks include operational support for its military to repel the Houthis’ push along the Red Sea coast toward the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a key trade chokepoint, and help to defend against strikes on its oil infrastructure, sources tell Bloomberg. Burnham has agreed to send British military advisers to Saudi Arabia in response to the requests, sources say. It’s unclear whether he’s willing to approve the other asks, which haven’t been disclosed by the UK government. The Foreign Office and MoD declined to answer questions. Burnham is facing one of his first major foreign policy and economic dilemmas since he became PM. Britain is determined not to get drawn into the conflict, not least because it didn’t support Trump’s war on Iran. Yet the crisis poses serious challenges ahead of next month’s budget. Burnham has been advised by his officials that if the Houthis take control of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait it will have a “catastrophic” impact on international shipping and provide another hit to the global economy through a further spike in the oil price and inflation, the sources said. The Houthi attacks have sent Brent crude toward $110 a barrel. Gilts extended a drop today as money markets added to bets on Bank of England interest rate rises off the back of inflation fears. Traders now fully price five quarter-point BoE hikes by the end of 2027, an outcome that would badly complicate the PM’s key pledge to reduce the cost-of-living. The Treasury is also worried that the recent escalation is taking place as the OBR prepares its economic and fiscal forecasts for the budget. John Healey had been hoping for a market reprieve during the assessment window. Instead it’s going further in the wrong direction and potentially leaving the chancellor with even more of a fiscal hole. Under Rishi Sunak the UK hit Houthi targets in Yemen to combat disruption in the Red Sea. Under Keir Starmer it deployed Sky Sabre air defences to help Riyadh.
Ben Habib: Funny how Westminster tolerated...
Funny how Westminster tolerated big money in politics for decades while Labour and the Conservatives were collecting it. Now a challenger has the resources to compete and suddenly the establishment wants to change the rules. What an extraordinary coincidence.

Apparently some lefty just said on @MichelleDewbs show that my report from Northern France ‘is exaggerated’ - my family has had death threats from illegal migrant gangs and we’ve been physically attacked several times in the last few days - all on camera. Watch 9-11pm @GBNEWSAdam Brooks: It’s getting harder and harder...
It’s getting harder and harder for Labour to excuse their own Government actions. Now as I said on air. I like Barry a lot, we get on… But I want hold back in my anger at the damage his party are doing in Government.
Pouria Zeraati: The best decision that "MBS"...
The best decision that "MBS" can make [especially after Turkey and Pakistan reneged on the Mecca agreement], is to move forward with operations in Yemen with Israel's full involvement, and ultimately have it end with Riyadh joining the Abraham Accords. In the Middle East, only the Israelis know how to deal with terrorism and saber-rattling. News: "Israel Hayom" has reported that the Saudi crown prince has requested help from regional countries to counter the Houthis; including an indirect request through CENTCOM to Israel to provide intelligence and other support to Saudi Arabia to prevent the regime's minions from closing the Bab al-Mandab Strait.

Britain is running a £100 billion deficit. Even now, after everything, the Tories have one trick. And it’s been the same since the early 1980s: deficit funded tax cuts.Daniel Lacalle: Spain illegal immigrant debacle...
Spain illegal immigrant debacle. Ceuta. Thousands remain, taking over the streets. The government gives them free wifi, food and wants to send them to other regions instead of expelling them.Adam Brooks: If Labour suddenly make those...

Flock cameras covered over after concerns about privacy in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, United States. What about individual freedom and privacy in the UK ?Ben Habib: A week ago Reform was drowning...
A week ago Reform was drowning in sleaze. Then two billionaires moved to insulate the party. Whatever happens with the various regulatory and criminal investigations, Reform is likely to survive.
Martin Geddes: If true, then national elections...
If true, then national elections are pointless exercises in measuring iatrogenic injury, and a jury of one’s peers is nigh impossible to assemble.
Philip Proudfoot: False. Reform is the party...
False. Reform is the party of weirdo crypto-traders and Israel. It’s a party of traitors to Britain, who defend Israel’s assault on our diplomatic institutions, and billionaires assault on our democracy.Andrew Bridgen: Canadian PM Mark Carney...
Canadian PM Mark Carney is landing at Manchester airport on Wednesday evening and leaving 7 hours later. Perhaps Carney is meeting Burnham on his way to Ukraine ? Two PM’s running formerly great countries into the ground. Whatever they will discuss it won’t be good for us.Ben Judah: If Labour foreign policy were truly...
If Labour foreign policy were truly agile it would seize on this as also a landing zone for now for Britain and Ukraine and present this to the country as a compromise.Pouria Zeraati: The governor of Qeshm...
Important/ The governor of Qeshm announced that today around 5 a.m., a commercial ship in the vicinity of Hengam Island and Shib Deraz beach on Qeshm Island was targeted in an attack. One person was killed and three were injured. CENTCOM has not yet confirmed this news, but two or three hours ago it was announced that the IRGC had attacked a ship in the Strait of Hormuz. It's likely that the U.S. responded immediately [ship against ship].

"All the ingredients for a regional catastrophe are in place but what is missing is the will to treat Sudan’s war as a runaway catastrophe, because every month of delay allows the pipelines to harden, the fault lines to deepen, and the human cost to climb."Lee Hurst: Imagine how more effective...
