@kaitlancollins And how do you plan on enforcing it this time?

John Kerry: “What President Trump now has to do is, frankly, get them to, again, agree to what they already agreed to — which should underscore the absurdity of the situation that we're finding ourselves in.”

@McFaul @RepTedLieu So, your solution?

.@RepTedLieu (a former Air Force officer) is absolutely right.

@Telegraph Hermer is a scumbag and should not be the attorney general of any country. Not even Mauritius.

🔴 Lord Hermer pursued a notorious “witch hunt” against British troops despite being warned that the allegations were lies, The Telegraph can disclose. An investigation by this newspaper can reveal the Attorney General’s leading role in the Al-Sweady scandal, which left decorated war heroes facing false accusations of murder and torture for more than a decade.

@MatthewStadlen Good on you for calling this out.

It gave me no pleasure to point out this evening that Sir Keir Starmer appeared today to mischaracterise to MPs the evidence that Sir Olly Robbins gave to Parliament yesterday.

@EdwardJDavey You actually expected an answer from Starmer? When is the last time anybody had a straight answer from Starmer?

I asked Keir Starmer: did he know his office was lobbying for a plum diplomatic job for Matthew Doyle, another Labour crony who was friends with a convicted sex offender? He conspicuously failed to answer.

@ianrich15813274 No wonder you were a teacher. You obviously can't see the serious national security implications of the Mandelson fiasco.

I'm not a big fan of Starmer, but he has just wiped the floor with Badenoch at PMQ's. She can't let go of the Mandelson issue, most people don't understand it, or care about it.

@kaitlancollins How would she propose to set a timeline? Or she just babbling again?

Sen. Elizabeth Warren: "So we now have no timeline on the ceasefire, no timeline on the blockade and, let's face it, no timeline on the war. Donald Trump has painted himself into a corner and he can't find an exit."

@euronews 100% correct

“Russia is an enemy,” former Finnish PM Sanna Marin tells #EuropeToday, warning Portugal, Spain and France are not safe from attack even though they are further from the Russian border. Thoughts? Write them in the comments, then watch the full interview: l.euronews.com/Ir1B

@BachmannRudi Yes. To be successful in Europe is something to be sneered at.

I think Europe should be proud not to be producing Elon Musks.

@eurofounder Medical care would not be free in Germany. It would be paid for by the health insurance everyone in Germany must have by law.

My wife collapsed in our hotel room in New York today “Call an ambulance, I can’t breathe” she was screaming My heart dropped If she ends up in an American hospital we are financially ruined I went on the Lufthansa app to book a flight back to Frankfurt, but unfortunately pilots are on strike today “Please I’m begging you” she was lying on the floor I sighed and called 911 She is now in surgery as apparently her appendix “almost burst” I am extremely scared This is going to cost us at least $100,000 She could have received much better care, for free, in Germany I will never visit this barbaric country ever again

@LiamHalligan No worries. We have a top economist as Chancellor, and she's in the process of sorting it all out.

UK 10-year gilt yields today surged no less than 0.4 percentage points - or 40 basis points - due to fears that Britain is almost uniquely vulnerable among the world's big economies to spiralling fuel food and fuel prices. The UK is the most inflation-prone economy in the G7. That weakness hasn't been caused, but has been more starkly exposed, by this US/Iran conflict. So the huge global investors that lend governments money are charging Britain far more than any other G7 nations - more than Spain, Greece and Morocco (!) - to borrow, as compensation for higher expected UK inflation. A 40bps point move in a single day, on a large-nation sovereign bond market, is a huge and deeply alarming shift. The UK government's 10-year borrowing cost is now 5.15pc - its highest level since June 2008, just ahead of the global financial crisis. This is a situation that warrants immediate and determined attention and yet our entire political and media class remains fixated with the ultimate Westminster-centric story – a deeply indulgent row about who knew what, when with regards to the appointment of Peter Mandelson as US Ambassador. History will not be kind to us ... My latest @Telegraph "Economic Agenda" column 🧵1/6 telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…

@LeonardBriscoe3 A top economist? Surely you are having a laugh.

We live in turbulent times, but luckily for us we have a top economist from the Bank of England managing our economy, she has been outstanding. thelondoneconomic.com/news/uk-econom…

@Haggis_UK ....says the government Obfuscator General.

Darren Jones: "There has been accusations made of the Prime Minister... of lying... that has been shown, today, by evidence in the foreign affairs select committee to be not true."

@kajakallas Oh good. Problem solved then.

Daily U-turns, whether the Strait of Hormuz is open or closed, are reckless. Transit through the Strait must remain free of charge. The EU has reached the political agreement to widen our sanctions regime to also target those responsible for breaches to freedom of navigation. None of us want to see a nuclear-armed Iran. We are in agreement with our regional partners that any durable settlement must address also other issues in addition to the nuclear one, including Iran's missile programme and its continued support to terrorist groups. My press remarks following today's Foreign Affairs Council ↓

@Osint613 At least Chancellor Merz gets it. How many other European leaders can you say that about?

German Chancellor Merz: "With 450 million consumers, we are already larger than the United States. We must break free from what is holding us back. We are being slowed down by labor costs, energy prices, taxes, and social contributions. We must push through reforms, and overcome resistance."

@AveryDaye Orders from headquarters in Brussels?

What happened to her?

@DakdaR22 That does not apply to Iran?

"There is no grey zone. You are either on the side of freedom or on the side of aggression. If we stop helping Ukraine, it means we are helping Russia." - Kaja Kallas EU diplomat Simple as that..🤷‍♀️

@labourpress Tice took tax advice from experts. Rayner did not. Spot the difference?

Reform won’t say that Richard Tice’s companies paid the correct tax. Because they didn’t. Why won’t they hold their deputy leader to the same standards they demand of others?

@crsanchezx But pretty soon there will be a new regulation that says that everyone in the EU shall enjoy economic growth. That will solve the problem.

Soy europeo. Hace 16 años, las economías de la UE y EE.UU. estaban prácticamente a la par. Hoy, la economía de EE.UU. es un 50% mayor que la de toda la UE junta. Esta es la cruda realidad detrás del suicidio económico que está sufriendo Europa 🧵:

@EdwardJDavey So what is the way to achieve it? Another signed document that is conveniently ignored by Iran?

Yet again Donald Trump is acting like a mafia boss on overdrive. Starmer should clearly condemn Trump's threats to target civilian infrastructure in Iran. We all want peace, but bullying and threatening war crimes is not the way to achieve it.
