@kateferguson4 @reformparty_uk Bring it on. Nigel is right as always .

Nigel Farage says if Brits vote Reform in the locals Labour MPs will be so pissed off they will topple Keir Starmer as PM.

@DPJHodges @Goosey30111568 A minute clearly written to support a narrative. Totally bogus.

This is damning on a number of levels. First it proves that the stories we all put to Downing Street about the vetting were accurate, despite the denials. And it blows out of the water the argument from Martin it was not a "pass/fail" system. It literally was a "pass/fail" system.

@Peston Come on Peston , you know this is a lie and a totally implausible one at that. Your credibility is less than zero if you maintain this line.

Downing Street says neither the PM or the then foreign secretary David Lammy knew that Peter Mandelson failed security vetting to be US ambassador till a few days ago. Sources say they are incandescent that they were not told. The clear implication is that the permanent under secretary at the foreign office Olly Robbins over-ruled the vetting recommendation and never told ministers. If that is right, and no official is denying that, it is impossible to see how he keeps his job

@BethRigby Starmer is a disgrace to his office. He needs to resign tonight.

NEW: Anger in No 10 tonight - am told by a source that neither the PM nor his advisors were told, over a series of months, that Mandelson had been granted security clearance against the recommendation of UK security vetting. That suggests this information was held in foreign office and not shared. Big Qs now about the PM misleading the House. I am told the PM had been asking Qs about vetting and not been told this information while giving statements to parliament. Told this week PM had been trying to get answers about what happened since Tues night - Guardian got ahead of story. The critical point is that the minister has to have ‘knowingly misled’ the House, and clearly No 10 saying tonight the PM was not aware. I understand the PM had been intending to update the HoC as soon as No 10 had established facts, which they have been doing since Tues. So expect to see the PM come to HoC on Monday to correct the record I asked PM on March 16 whether he has misled the House when he said due process was followed. This is what he told me BETH RIGBY: On the Mandelson files, your national security adviser said the process was quote, weirdly rushed, and Mandelson was appointed before developed vetting had been complete. You told MPs in the House of Commons that due process was followed. Is there a possibility that you have misled the House when you said that? KEIR STARMER: No, and the independent adviser looked at that very question. I think on Thursday or Friday of last week, and answered it very robustly, that the process had been followed. The process wasn't strong enough. And amongst the changes that I intend to put into place is the fact that you can't announce someone until the vetting is finished. It wasn't an individual decision in the Mandelson case, that was the process. Well, you only have to look at that. in the light of the appointment, to realise that that needs to change. But on due process, the process that was there was followed, the problem was the process wasn't strong enough, but ultimately, it was my mistake and I have apologised for that and quite right to.

@PippaCrerar Starmer couldn't lie straight in bed. We cannot accept our country being run by this man any linger.

It is mindblowing the PM was not told by officials that Peter Mandelson, his pick for the UK's biggest diplomatic job, had failed security vetting. I'm told Starmer is furious after he was told *for the first time* earlier this week. Serious questions for foreign office perm sec Olly Robbins and his team tonight.

BREAKING: Downing Street says that neither Keir Starmer nor David Lammy knew that Peter Mandelson failed his security vetting - and lays blame with Foreign Office official for overruling the decision.

GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS, GOD BLESS ISRAEL, AND GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS AND GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

@hey_itsmyturn Good. We can kill a bunch of them at the same time.

🔴 COMMANDER OF THE BASIJ UNIT ELIMINATED Yesterday, the IDF targeted & eliminated Gholamreza Soleimani, who operated as commander of the Basij unit for the past 6 years. Under Soleimani, the Basij unit led the main repression operations in Iran, employing severe violence, widespread arrests, and the use of force against civilian demonstrators.

#BREAKING Israel says it has killed Ali Larijani, the de facto leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran and Gholamreza Soleimani, the head of the Basij, the infamous paramilitary force that the regime uses to suppress protests and control civilians. In January, Larijani was said to have overseen the crackdown on protesters that resulted in many thousands of Iranians being killed in the streets by the regime and many more being imprisoned.

@khizdddeeee @FaytuksNetwork You fascists are being crushed

@FaytuksNetwork Trump advisor are giving him a best advice because trump is not winning this war

Trump advisers are privately urging him to seek an exit ramp from the Iran war, citing concerns about spiking oil prices and potential political backlash - WSJ

@WarMonitor3 Iran is headed to the Stone Age unless it surrenders.

US will not relent its strikes on Iran until they are totally and decisively defeated-Hegseth

@WarMonitor3 Iran is sure finding out the hard way.

US navy hit and sunk the Iranian IRIS Dena warship off the coast of Sri Lanka. Wow…

@MichaelLCrick A lot better than you were. As usual you spoke incoherent drivel.

GBNews rarely get Labour MPs, but Tom Hayes was superb on GBNews tonight - well-informed, intelligent, fluent, logical, calm but firm, courteous and avoided cliches. Labour & GBNews should use Hayes a lot more. He's a better broadcaster than most senior ministers.

@WarMonitor3 It will be too complicated with the US and Israei operations and likely to result in friendly fire accidents

This is getting ridiculous now how long until the Gulf states start to launch their own offensive strikes on Iran.
