Joel’s busy pondering which pint to have at the end of his shift… Which one are you going for ?









Just spoke to @POTUS about our European allies’ unwillingness to provide assets to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning, which benefits Europe far more than America. I have never heard him so angry in my life. I share that anger given what’s at stake. The arrogance of our allies to suggest that Iran with a nuclear weapon is of little concern and that military action to stop the ayatollah from acquiring a nuclear bomb is our problem not theirs is beyond offensive. The European approach to containing the ayatollah’s nuclear ambitions have proven to be a miserable failure. The repercussions of providing little assistance to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America. I consider myself very forward-leaning on supporting alliances, however at a time of real testing like this, it makes me second guess the value of these alliances. I am certain I am not the only senator who feels this way.


'Why does the UK govt think it is not the right thing to send ships to the Strait of Hormuz?' @SophyRidgeSky 'It is dangerous...PM has been putting the national interest, but the safety of British people in the Middle East as well as in the UK, first.' @Dan4Barnet


This is not the @LFC I fell in love with 50yrs ago, this is sideways & backwards passive uninspiring football, it’s absolutely atrocious to watch, we’ve zero intensity in our play, something needs to change at this club & needs to change quickly imo, this Galatasaray team are up there with the worst teams I’ve seen in a long time & we’ve played right into their hands, the club should refund the away fans for that display.
