BREAKING. The country President Trump called “very late as usual” just parked a nuclear submarine within Tomahawk range of Iran. HMS Anson, an Astute-class nuclear-powered attack submarine, is now positioned in the northern Arabian Sea with cruise missiles capable of reaching targets deep inside Iranian territory. Britain did not announce this with a press conference. The Daily Mail published the positioning. The submarine speaks for itself. HMS Anson left Perth earlier this month and traveled 5,500 miles to the Arabian Sea. It carries Tomahawk Block IV cruise missiles and Spearfish heavyweight torpedoes. Its Rolls-Royce reactor will not need refuelling for 25 years. Its pump-jet propulsor makes it one of the quietest submarines in any navy. It does not need to surface to strike. It does not need permission from Washington. Starmer authorises launches through Permanent Joint Headquarters at Northwood. This is a British weapon under British command. The sequence matters. On the first day of the war, Iran fired two intermediate-range ballistic missiles at Diego Garcia, a British territory in the Indian Ocean. Neither hit. Trump publicly criticised the UK as “very late” and “disappointing” in its response. Starmer initially hesitated on US requests to use British bases for strike operations. Then Britain authorised the use of UK bases, including Diego Garcia, for operations to prevent Iran from attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran responded by warning that British lives are now at risk. Britain responded by sending a submarine that can put a Tomahawk through a window in Tehran from underwater without surfacing. The escalation ladder from “very late” to nuclear attack submarine took less than three weeks. Starmer’s calculation is not ideological. It is economic. The UK imports significant quantities of LNG and oil through Gulf supply routes. The Strait of Hormuz carries approximately 20 percent of global seaborne oil trade. British energy prices are already surging from the Hormuz closure. British pharmaceutical supply chains depend on Indian manufacturers who depend on Gulf crude. The same supply-chain vulnerability that connects Modi’s Nowruz phone call to Ohio pharmacies connects Starmer’s submarine deployment to British gas bills. The submarine is not defending democracy. It is defending heating costs. The Astute-class is the most capable attack submarine Britain has ever built. Seven are planned. Five have been commissioned. HMS Anson, the fifth, entered service in 2022. At 97 metres and 7,800 tonnes submerged, it carries a crew of 98 in a hull designed to operate at depths exceeding 300 metres. It is smaller than the American Virginia-class but rated quieter by multiple independent assessments. It carries fewer missiles but needs fewer sailors. In a strait where stealth matters more than volume, the boat that cannot be heard is more dangerous than the fleet that can be seen. The UK is now the third nation with strike capability deployed in the war theatre, after the United States and Israel. France has the Charles de Gaulle carrier group for air operations. Greece has a Patriot battery defending Saudi refineries. Twenty-three nations signed a statement. But only Britain has put a nuclear-powered platform carrying land-attack cruise missiles underwater in the Arabian Sea with the authority to fire them on the Prime Minister’s order. Trump said late. Starmer sent a submarine. The missile it carries can reach Tehran. The reactor that powers it will not need fuel until 2047. And the man who authorises the launch is the same man Iran threatened by name when it said British lives are at risk. The threat was noted. The submarine arrived.

@imtheatan Samin sa Coron ganyan din. Flights can reach 16k per way. After Mar 28, we will have no flights to Manila. Kaya mag mumura daw yun airlines kasi clark na flights namin and siargao? This is what happens when its laissez-faire. Puro private initiative kaya walang magawa sa price.

Remember when Bianca Gonzalez shared her frustration about flight prices to Siargao? She's right: how it can be cheaper for Filipinos to fly to another country than to go to Siargao from Manila? For context, here are the lowest ONE-WAY Manila–Siargao fares that I found this February: ₱5,183 – Cebu Pacific (with stop) ₱6,427 – Cebu Pacific (with stop) ₱9,007 – Philippine Airlines (with stop) These are one-way prices. Round-trip easily goes well beyond what some people pay to fly to nearby Southeast Asian countries. So, Malacañang responded to the issue. According to Palace Press Officer Claire Castro, the government says high domestic airfares — especially for island destinations like Siargao — are being addressed by the government. One key reason cited is that many routes have smaller aircrafts flying into them that carry only 60–70 passengers but have almost the same operating costs as larger jets that can carry up to 200 passengers. The DOTr also said it has negotiated with airlines like PAL and Cebu Pacific, which agreed to lower fares, including on Siargao routes. Meanwhile, the Civil Aeronautics Board says it continues to remind airlines to reduce fuel surcharges when global fuel prices go down. Sometimes it feels deeply unfair that many Filipinos are effectively priced out of our own tourist spots and beach destinations. Siargao shouldn’t feel more “foreign” to us than another country.

@eliana_jordan Hey! Any suggestions on what software to use for a dive center?

I was told I’d never make it 2014 – I graduated with a business degree and moved to London to learn English. 2015 – I left the idea of an office job, traveled the world, and grew an Instagram account to 20k followers. 2019 – I moved to Australia and became a scuba instructor. 2020 – I learned to code in a bootcamp to build a diving app. 2021 – I worked as a full-stack developer, but corporate life and bad mentorship pushed me away from tech. 2023 – I quit, moved to Thailand, and started building my app, learning more in months than years at companies. 2024 – I launched my first SaaS and began building in public on X. 2025 – I made my first online dollar, built 3 micro-SaaS, traveled Asia, and quit my job as a scuba instructor in Palau to fully focus on my SaaS. Not the typical tech path but the one that finally feels right.

@RichHeydarian Nowhere to go but up

In spite of our horrible politicians!

@HeidiMendoza45 Sana all katulad ni Jeff. Mabuhay po kayo!

Late na pero shoutout kay Jeff-Jeff A. Tipones. VVR tricycle no. 32 Hindi ko sya kilala pero ikinampanya nya ako. Nasakyan sya ng student ko and until now naka-lagay pa yung sticker ko sa dash board nya! Jeff, isang taon na, mula nung magpasya ako, at ikaw ang laman ng dasal ko tonight! Pasikatin nyo naman oh😀

@ChelDiokno Cong, I disagree with this. I think gradual increase of compensation would be good to help with expenses like commute, etc. They should get a portion of sevice charge. Most ojt students arent serious yet and the quality is very different from workers. Companies wont get ojts.

INTERNS ARE NOT FREE LABOR! Like and share to support our Interns’ Rights and Welfare Bill (HB 5081)! Sa panukalang ito, ang mga university at college students na required mag-internship ay may karapatan sa just compensation, tamang working hours, leaves, proteksyon vs diskriminasyon, sexual harassment, abuse, at exploitation, atbp. Salamat @russcojarvina_ sa pag-collab sa reel na ito. Follow for more updates mula sa Kongreso!

@teddycasino Tao lang Sir. Grabe ang sama pabalikbalik lang tayo skandalo, rally, skandalo, rally. Ramdam ko frustrations nyo sana mas umokay sa mga anak natin. Ayaw ko talaga sa left leaning pero mabuhay po kayo. Kung ano kayo dati pa ganun parin. Mabuhay po kayo Sir @teddycasino

@wmcabangon @JobstreetPH Is there a trend? Do they seem to be from certain nationalities?

There is an incredible amount of identity fraud going on among the applicants at @JobstreetPH Every person I have interviewed this week is a foreigner pretending to be a Filipino (w fake resumes and ID). Cannot speak Tagalog or say anything about Filipino life/culture. Scary.

@theadtan I agree. Im based in Palawan and when we go abroad, mas bantay pa kmi sa tickets nmin to manila than to international destinations. I looked at siargao to vacation and its even more expensive from clark. We tried to lobby cheaper flights through our lgu but airlines do not budge.

@Immutable Whats this?

If you can reply, you're officially early.

@HeidiMendoza45 Bukang bibig ng Pilipino ang korapsyon ang pinaka problema natin. Nakita ng marami ano ang possibility Mam. Tuloy ang laban sa 2028. Siguradong mas madaming Pilipino ang mag aambag ng oras at resources para sayo. Ipanalo natin ang 2028 Mam!

For the first time, hindi ako makabuo ng mensahe! Kanina pa ako nag-aattempt. Ikaw 'yun… (Lord). Kayo 'yun! Tumayo lang ako, bantulot sa simula. Walang malinaw na stratehiya. Walang makinarya. Walang pera. Pero maraming istorya! Nabuo sa kahabaan ng sanga-sangang daan na hindi mo alam kung ano ang patutunguhan. Sa gitna ng mataong palengke na may kanya-kanyang teleserye. Sa iba't ibang tanggapan kung saan minsan, hindi mo alam kung ikaw ay may lulugaran. Ako lang at si Roel sa simula—hanggang naki-halo na ang madla! Ilang beses nadapa, bumangon, at nanumpa: makikinig, mag-aaral, hindi iindahin ang sugat. Ibabangon at ipaglalaban… Babantayan ang kaban ng bayan! Sa mga nag-ambag, sa lahat ng tumulong, sa lahat ng naniwala, sa lahat ng nagdasal, sa lahat ng umasa… Maraming salamat!
