Imagine a moment, within a few days of finding out you had successfully beaten Stg3 bowel cancer and being with the love of my life and being with #TheCure at Wembley and #Alone was the first song that night, it does not get any better, thank you @RobertSmith @thecure

I am very wary of reports that the UK is now within range of Iranian ballistic missiles. But if the reports are true, let’s be in no doubt: the UK has no defences against such missiles. No dedicated national ballistic missile defence (BMD) system for intercepting intermediate- or intercontinental-range threats aimed at the homeland. No ground-based interceptors (like US THAAD or Patriot systems in Europe) deployed in Britain for this purpose. In theory our T-45 warships could provide some cover. But most are currently undeployable or not in UK waters. Leaving us defenceless from ballistic missile attack. Another massive military failure of the political class of all recent governments.

Mr Reed also implies that we successfully defended Diego Garcia from Iranian missile attack. Untrue. Let’s set the record straight: One Iranian ballistic missile failed in flight — malfunctioned mid-flight or broke up on re-entry. Either way it never reached the target area. The other was engaged/intercepted by a U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyer nearby, which fired an SM-3 interceptor at it and destroyed it. UK forces played no part in the defence of Diego Garcia. Nor do they have the capability to do so. Mr Reed says UK won’t be dragged into the US’s War. Fair enough. But he’s happy for the US to defend what is a British base — and didn’t even thank them for it.

Like so many ministers in the Starmer government (maybe most) this minister — Steve Reed — has no idea what he’s talking about and is totally out of his depth. Which, when the matter is national security, is rather serious.

Ed Miliband lecturing us on the climate while burning £800k on private jets and luxury suites in Brazil. Champagne for the eco-elites, poverty for the British taxpayer. The sheer, unadulterated hypocrisy of the Net Zero cult on full display. They don’t want to save the planet; they just want to control you.

Ed Miliband jets off to COP30 in luxury, sipping champagne in a private plane while his massive entourage racks up £800,000+ of our money on flights, private apartments & hotels ✈️ Yet he lectures us plebs to drink warm beer and turn down the heating to 'save the planet' 🍻 Classic net zero hypocrisy ♻️

The cost of government borrowing for 30 years has just hit 5.6%, compared to the worst one day spike to 4.8% under Truss. Rachel Reeves said that rate had crashed the economy. Oh dear, what has the Chancellor done?

Gas is one of the most valuable resources on the planet. Britain has it. But instead of using it, we’ve paid Norway £100 BILLION since 2021. Make that make sense. 🤷‍♂️

This is an incredible statement from a British Foreign Secretary. Literally acknowledges our interests, allies, global partners, global shipping and the wider Middle East are under direct attack from a hostile state. Then emphasises we will not take offensive action to deter it.
Sky News@SkyNews

"We have not been, and we continue not to be involved in offensive action." Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper has reiterated the government's defensive support in the Middle East and the need for a swift resolution to avoid a wider conflict. trib.al/1H4Yv2V 📺 Sky 501

Yvette Cooper and this Labour government are clearly out of their depth. Incompetent. She admits Britain has come under attack, but we won’t do any offensive action to deter further attacks. Weak. We also hear today that Labour tried to cover it all up. Dishonest.
