The last episode in my 10-part serial about wildlife crime & conservation on the Pembrokeshire bird-islands. It’s been a great pleasure to get this stuff out where somebody might actually read it. Previous episodes at nation.cymru/?s=Howell+Harr….

The final episode of the Gannets of Grassholm reflects on how the protections which evolved following the terrible events of 1890 have helped create the third largest colony of northern gannets on Earth ✍️@trefeca 👉wp.me/p8Mk4U-Ado nation.cymru/culture/the-ga…

@paulmasonnews Dear Mr Hasbara, are you absolutely sure about the targets of every bomb & missile that leaves “RAF” Fairford? Do you think the USAF discloses or perhaps even discusses & clears every mission with us, or do they just provide reassurances & Sir Feeble says Yes?

Tonight there is a clear RU, Hezbollah cognitive op to claim Uk is escalating "illegally" vs Iran - it's bullshit. Everything Britain is doing is calibrated with UN and international law / unlike Trump

This is wild. The @WhiteHouse plagiarized its reason for launching a war on Iran from @FDD, a cutout of Israeli intelligence. Side-by-side screenshots in the 🧵

The most definitive White House statement purporting to justify the Israel-US war on Iran was its March 2, 2026 statement entitled "The Iranian Regime's Decades of Terrorism against American Citizens". whitehouse.gov/articles/2026/… After a brief editorial opening, the article lists 44 incidents with a total of 992 US deaths. The source of the data wasn't given. Where did it come from? Unlike the Iraq war or the Russia collusion allegation, the reporting didn't come from an intelligence assessment, flawed or otherwise. It turns out that the list was plagiarized by the White House from a June 19, 2025 list (fdd.org/analysis/2025/…) prepared by a former AIPAC employee (Tzvi Kahn) for a think tank (FDD) founded "to provide education to enhance Israel's image in North America". The think tank's original identity was "EMET (Hebrew for 'truth')". The June 19, 2025 publication was literally on the eve of the first US bombing of Iran on June 21, 2025. In this thread, I'll compare each and every item in the White House statement to the corresponding item in the original list by the former AIPAC employee. The list is virtually identical. Any slight changes are always in the change of ratcheting up the underlying allegation.

This has been pinned to my profile since 1st of March. I've lived under the flight path of B-52 bombers leaving RAF Fairford, Gloucestershire, then returning. It's truly the stuff of nightmares, the deep growl of engines overhead twice a day. It's an illegal war & UK is assisting
Jane Samuels@Jane_Samuels

No debate and no vote in Parliament before entering another illegal war in the Middle East for regime change. And no Labour MPs with the courage of Robin Cook to speak out and resign from the Labour Cabinet. We may well see another 30,000 join the Green Party

@AnthonyGlees I don’t seem to remember similar objections to the last visit from a Pope to these islands. Huge public religious services were the centrepiece.

@paulmasonnews Please remind us of your take on the application of international law to the destruction of Gaza, and now Lebanon, or the partial occupation and intervention in Syria. All OK if the magic words “self-defence” are uttered sufficiently often & ideally sanctimoniously.

It actually strengthens the legality because Iran is in clear breach of UNCLOS, but don't expect "worried Zack" to understand international law when there's a cheap point to be scored 👇🏽🚩✊
Zack Polanski@ZackPolanski

UK bases being used for US strikes on these Iranian missile sites is another worrying escalation. The US and Israel started this war and have killed countless civilians. The UK is actively supporting. MPs must be given a vote on our involvement.

‘We only have 14 howitzers in the whole army’. Under our NATO commitments we should have 216.

@benwansell It’s the Go-Home or Stay-at-Home Office, doesn’t do common sense. It’s like asking the scorpion why it strung & killed the frog taking it across the river. It’s in its nature.

Exactly the kind of story I warned about a few weeks ago. Insane that the Home Office cannot just let back in a British citizen (with birth certificate in hand) who needs to do her GCSEs in a few weeks. Where is the common sense? theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/m…

@KingofSW6 And spare the poor guy the embarrassment of having to go and see Trump on a completely pointless mission to an enemy head of state.

@NatalieFleetMP Complete ****. That 70% in your godforsaken hole was ten years ago and a lot of them are now dead. Your gang of lying wreckers divided & weakened & impoverished the country & don’t get a permanent veto.

While London may want to rejoin, areas like mine that voted 70% to leave definitely do not. In an increasingly divided world, the last thing we need is to divide the country all over again by restarting this debate.
Pippa Crerar@PippaCrerar

Most senior Labour figure yet to openly call for party to put rejoining EU in next election manifesto. Will others now follow? (Very few even say this privately - but it’s a long time until the next election)…
