Haven’t seen this level of consensus across the UK media about who the bad guy was since the Handforth Parish Council meeting.

Maybe Vance didn't see any of the British troops who fought alongside the US in Iraq. But then again he spent his tour there writing press releases - presumably because the USMC assessed him as being unsuitable for service in a rifle platoon.
NEW: JD Vance describes UK & French troops in Ukraine as “20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.
Spits in the face of UK & EU troops that died supporting the US in Iraq & Afghanistan.
So revealing. The Atlantic alliance & “special relationship” is dead.

We have got to stop kidding ourselves that appeasing Trump & trying to please him gains us any leverage, any guarantees, any reliable favour.

I just attended a sold out screening of NO OTHER LAND and something I’ve never experienced happened. After the film, no one spoke. Every single person remained silent. All the way to the exit. If that interests you, see this film. It is truly a miracle that it exists. @belcourttheatre.bsky.social

No Other Land airs on Channel 4 at 11.15pm, Tuesday 4 March. Not to be missed. Witness how Israel steals Palestinian land and destroys homes and lives, shown through the eyes of Basel, a Palestinian filmmaker, and Yuval, an Israeli journalist. Oscar for BEST DOCUMENTARY.

Today I have called for a Chilcot-style inquiry into the UK’s involvement in Israel’s assault on Gaza.
Our concerns have routinely been met with evasion and silence. We need a full, public, independent inquiry with the legal power to establish the truth. news.sky.com/story/starme...
