The two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran today is welcomed by the UK and our allies.
The goal now must be a lasting end to the war.
Alongside our international partners, the UK will work to ensure a return to freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
@AmericaPapaBear Good.
But where are the sentences for the illegals and drug traffickers doing this same thing to regular every day, non-famous persons?
@AmericaPapaBear Insane
She was responsible for his choices?
Like blaming a bartender for a DUI death.
Let's do judges this way. If you Release a killer, you are to blame.
@JAYAFC23@SkyNews she makes a living selling illegal substances that can, and have in this case, taken lives. she should get the chair, fucking scum of the earth she is

@Rod__Mason@TedUrchin We allowed bases and air base use after the initial attack. Several countries in Europe banned air space.
The fact remains, Trump and Starmer hate each others guts. The gloves were always going to come off after the state visit was out of the way.
@TedUrchin The USA are reportedly going to remove troops from Britain, and even leave (end) NATO - due partly or mainly to Starmer pointlessly denying American use of our bases, initially (but later agreeing to it.)
@NoahMisha84242@RapidResponse47@PressSec@POTUS Yes, the rest of the NATO membership MUST get it's arse into gear regards military spending.
But to destroy NATO's standing and structure in this manner is just daft.
@NoahMisha84242@RapidResponse47@PressSec@POTUS Exactly. This is bullshit from the US right now.
Ok, they've done the right thing against Iran along with Israel, the structure and capability of their military is second to none and the rescue of the F15 crew was just brilliant, but this really isn't a NATO issue.
Keir Starmer has played a blinder. Stepped back, analysed the situation and got the Strait of Hormuz opened again.
All without a shot fired.
This is how you lead.
Turkish police just neutralized 3 armed terrorists who rolled up shooting near Israel's consulate in Istanbul yesterday. One dead, two captured wounded. Two cops got hit lightly.
Video: Attackers with rifles vs. security forces. Turkey + Israel both called it straight-up terrorism (Islamist links).
In CoD: Bad guys tried a noob rush on the embassy objective, got farmed by the Turkish squad. End of round.
