t.co/SWAYW6ANBl London’s Muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan, insists that all criticism against him is nothing more than “Islamophobia” and “Pakistanophobia.” As you can see in the video, he explicitly claims: “People attack me because I am Muslim and Pakistani.” No, Sadiq—people criticize you because of your disastrous leadership, skyrocketing crime rates, and your repeated defense of extremists. What’s your response to his pathetic victim card?

KEMI BADENOCH: Why did we learn of a missile raid on the UK's military base in the Chagos Islands from US... not from our ministers? trib.al/AyZRUsE

During the coming days & weeks, you're bound to encounter all kinds of claims that "attacks on Iran by Israel & the United States are illegal, unprovoked & unjustifiable." These claims are false. Here's why. @Israel has publicly announced - correctly so - it is in an "ongoing armed conflict" against Iran (pic 1). For anyone interested in specific reasons & justifications, I invite you to review an info paper published @IsraelMFA on Op Rising Lion available at this link (pic 1 is screenshot of 1st few paragraphs): gov.il/en/pages/opera… 🇮🇱 is also designated with 🇺🇸 Major Non-NATO Ally status (pic 2). This doesn't provide a specific legal basis for 🇺🇸 to intervene in this ongoing armed conflict, but it shouldn't be a surprise that @POTUS directs @DeptofWar to do so on behalf of our MNNA - as he did for Op Midnight Hammer. Don't let mass disinformation agents like Corbyn here distort reality & rewrite history in service of their preferred progressive social or political agenda. Yes, there have been "illegal, unprovoked & unjustified attacks" in this strategic setting. They were carried out by IRAN & it's regional proxies starting on 10/7. Israel exercised the inherent right of individual self-defense, as reflected in art. 51 @UN Charter, in response. Intervention by 🇺🇸 to support its MNNA 🇮🇱 is an issue of neutrality, not the Charter. Joining an ONGOING armed conflict is not illegal - it just means 🇺🇸 is now a belligerent (again) in the conflict. And yes, "peace & diplomacy" WERE possible. During diplomatic engagement BEFORE Op Roaring Lion, 🇮🇷 refused peace. Now they get an escalation of this ONGOING armed conflict. This IS behaviour of a rogue state. The "rogue state" is 🇮🇷...and now that behavior is met with escalated consequences. Colloquially, I believe this is referred to as #FAFO. Khamenei & his gov't have been on FA axis of that calculation for quite a while. Now, they're transitioning further along on the FO axis. No surprise there. Finally, the "flagrant breach of international law" here occurred on 10/7. Since then, 🇮🇱 has been involved in an ONGOING armed conflict against 🇮🇷 & its proxies. Responding to the enduring threat is NOT "aggression." It is war. Governments like Corbyn's 🇬🇧 can join in or stay out of the way. Either way, ops by 🇮🇱 & 🇺🇸 do NOT constitute a "violation of international law." Jeremy Corbyn here is misrepresenting both facts AND language of int'l law. Also no surprise there, considering the source. But he most certainly won't be the only one. When you encounter disinformation like his rhetoric going forward, now you'll know exactly how you're being misled. #TheMoreYouKnow

'The Royal Navy is slower than the P&O!' @NickFerrariLBC demands to know when HMS Dragon will finally reach Cyprus, but minister Matthew Pennycook will only say 'it's on its way.'

IRGC needs to be proscribed by the @UKLabour regime.
