@PlutoThevTuber Stove turn on button didn't work until the power outlet switch was turned on first. 😅
English
Uhh... How do I turn this thing on? Is there a button somewhere? There are no dials. I'm guessing it's a touch screen, but- the buttons I touched aren't working. It's 7 AM here, and I just want to fry an egg. *confused American noises*

@Starkiller_29 @Jake_facial @Gabriel64869839 For the 152521516 time...
And a 2 second Google will tell you *finance* was a key motivating factor.
English
@twattwattering @Jake_facial @Gabriel64869839 For the 472947 times, for ideological reasons. France and industrials didn’t want it, Macron wanted it for the sake of “Franco-German couple” & “Europe of defense” bullshit event if we all recognized it wasn’t France’s advantage.
There were no tech, indus or financial upsides.
English
UK should pull out of GCAP, painful as it is to say.
As gov is not willing to spend what it takes to keep Forces from functionally dying (because that is what they are effectively doing, capability by capability), can't afford to spend another 12 billions just for development.

@GBPolitcs He knows when an answer isn't answered. The Chair used to be authoritative. See Boothroyd.

🚨NEW: At the end of PMQs, Edward Leigh MP raised a Point of Order on Keir Starmer regularly not answering questions
The speaker, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, admits there is nothing he can do

@Starkiller_29 @Jake_facial @Gabriel64869839 If there were never any upsides why did France do it.
Guess what, there were upsides.
And finance a big part of it.
English
@twattwattering @Jake_facial @Gabriel64869839 Research about France would tell you the opposite.
Not in the case of France. We don’t need German or Spanish tech… let’s be honest. And it’s a financial and industrial loss for France regarding the already existing industrial base.
At this point there are no upsides.

@KimAlPedersen @secretsqrl123 You just can't bring yourself to answer the question
English
@twattwattering @secretsqrl123 Gosh you are dense! But its ok, you will find out in time!
English
Why China chose not to take over Taiwan in this window still eludes me.
BRICS News@BRICSinfo
JUST IN: 🇨🇳🇮🇷 Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi pushes Iran to negotiate terms with US for ending the war.
English
@KimAlPedersen @secretsqrl123 Let's try again.
Blowing up its own critical asset would have a massive impact on its economy. Not doing so means a chance to get it back if it was lost.
How would "the enemy" profit from it if it doesn't have access to Iranian oil?
3rd time I have asked the same question
English
@twattwattering @secretsqrl123 Ohh dear fucking lord you are really that stupid!
If Iran loses the facility anyway, why not blow it up?
Its a well known strategy! Blow it up before your enemy takes it!
Thus hindring the enemy in profitting from it! Or use it as a barginin chip!
English
@KimAlPedersen @secretsqrl123 Yes.
That's the strategic reasoning well done.
Now try answering the question, and explain why blowing up the facilities would help Iran, given it's useless without Iranian oil.
English
@twattwattering @secretsqrl123 Its not only if the united oblasts of america can use it, its also to take away your opponents ability to wage war! If Don pedo controls the island, Iran is severely hamperd in selling oil, thus funding its war mashine!
Dont you even think before you write something?
Now fuck off
English
@KimAlPedersen @secretsqrl123 I asked you twice
How could the US use the facilities without Iranian oil?
English
@twattwattering @secretsqrl123 Lets see how it plays out!
But history has proven im right again and again!
It would be quite stupid of Don pedo to blow it up him self wouldent it, then he cant use it himself! I think its time you turn your brain on! And you know, Iran is defeated, Don pedo told you so 🤣
English
@KimAlPedersen @secretsqrl123 Explain why they would do it given the US couldn't use the facilities without Iranian oil.
Understand the US could simply blow up the facilities themselves.
English
@twattwattering @secretsqrl123 Its how wars are fought! But you go and live on in lala land 🤣
Honestly I dont think Don Pedo has thought that far ahead, but he will end up with a scorched island, no oil, and a whole Iran full of dudes in civil clothes with an AK under the jacket and a drone in the shed 💥🌮
English
@KimAlPedersen @secretsqrl123 And what would the US do with it without oil from Iran?
Destroying the facilities doesn't help Iran at all.
Use your brain.
English
@twattwattering @secretsqrl123 Welcome to the real world buddy 🤣
Infrastructure gets mined and blown up all the time to prevent them from being taken over! In this case, Iran dosent want the united oblasts of america to get their hands on their facilities!
But you have many lessons to learn !

@Steven_Swinford what a very unbelievable coincidence, considering Mandelson was sacked in September 2025, one might understandably speculate that it was disposed of on purpose
English
@secretsqrl123 Ill take any bet on that the oil storage is heavily mined by now!

@Akula_KorAh @secretsqrl123 Without it how is the oil/gas sold?

@secretsqrl123 Kharge Island is useless without the oil fields on the mainland.

@CarlChambe84398 All Miliband is doing is implementing what the Tories did.
Yes I also fear what he will do next.
English
@twattwattering Thats true but Labour have taken it to new levels and in Milliband they have a deranged fanatic who will take us to levels we’ve not seen before
English
Rather than economic illiteracy it’s actually as if Labour is embarked on a deliberate and sustained policy to destroy the country
Claire Coutinho@ClaireCoutinho
Labour just voted to block North Sea drilling during an energy crisis. Turning down more domestic supply and £25 BILLION in extra tax revenue. That means more taxes on ordinary people instead. Economically illiterate doesn't even begin to cover it.
English
@Starkiller_29 @Jake_facial @Gabriel64869839 Part of the motivation. The core being money and technology.
Same reason GCAP exists.
Just a simple bit of research would tell you this.
You keep on talking about downsides or FCAS ignoring the upside.
English
@twattwattering @Jake_facial @Gabriel64869839 The reason it was created was political and ideological.
With F5 and its UCAS & cloud, the only missing part is the NGF that needs to be done between Dassault, Safran & Thales.
Through cooperation we would have lost a lot of capability and end up with a mid system like EF

" This is a massive elite force, and in a few days, they will reach the Middle East"
you people are absurd
10k troops are not invading Iran you fucking muppet
It took hundreds of thousands of troops to invade Iraq, and Iraq is all flat land desert, Iran is bigger, and all mountain terrain.
We have zero armor, zero logistical support, and no way in because Iraq is not going to allow us to stage tens of thousands of troops and equipment to do a land invasion of Iran
The Iranian coast along the straits is all cliffs....stop watching movies you muppet
Raylan Givens@JewishWarrior13
⭕️Folks, I don't know about the talks with Iran, but what I do know is the reality on the ground: 4,500 Marines (2 MEUs), 3,000 paratroopers from the All-American 82nd Airborne Division, the 75th Ranger Battalion, the 160th SOAR, Delta Force, and more. This is a massive elite force, and in a few days, they will reach the Middle East. If Iran thought it was bad until now, they are about to discover the real might of the US military. God bless the United States and our armed forces. 🫡🇺🇸

James makes a good point here. China's fishing fleet is decimating global fish stocks. Only a handful of western democracies have the resources and the political will to keep the ships away.
James Glancy@jaglancy
Surrendering the Chagos is Ecocide on a massive scale. The British Indian Overseas Territory is one the only places in the Indian Ocean not decimated by Chinese and Asian industrial overfishing. If the deal goes through, the Chagos archipelago will be ransacked by trawlers. Unusually, there is almost complete radio silence from British conservation organisations. It’s inexplicable. ecos.org.uk/the-chagos-con…
