We can, and will do so much more if we're given the opportunity. Amazing analysts working for the NHS need access and resources to be innovative and productive. We need to stop talking and start doing...

‘We are already collecting massive, massive volumes of data just for them to be sitting there’ Pouria Hadjibagheri, who helped lead the UK’s Coronavirus dashboard, says part of the solution to NHS pressures could be using data more effectively bbc.in/2Ps915G

Christiane Amanpour claims women in Iran have “much more rights today than they do in the rest of the Muslim world.” I don't know what else to say about her at this point Except to say what Iranians already know - she is NOT on their side

I've never met one Iranian who has said "you know what, the regime isn't that bad, their threat is exaggerated"

@Pouriaaa @DrNeilStone @Telegraph How many Americans has the Bush dynasty killed in foreign wars with no benefit to the American people? Do you think the scion of the Trump dynasty should have more Americans killed over Iran for the same outcome?

Excellent analysis here from @Pouriaaa on where the regime stands, how the UK is getting it wrong, and the irony of the Islamic Republic, meant to REPLACE a dynastic monarchy, handing power to the son of the late Supreme Leader based on little more than bloodline. @Telegraph
Pouria Hadjibagheri MBE@Pouriaaa

The vicious cartel politics that will decide what Iran does next. There are no moderates in the Islamic Republic because cartels only care about one thing: survival. My new column in the @Telegraph. Gift link: telegraph.co.uk/gift/7c7115972…

@GrapeThief @Telegraph I think many people are trying to say that. The issue is that they tend to not want to hear from those who disagree with their editorial perspectives. It's really frustrating.

@Pouriaaa @Telegraph I wish you would go on all the news outlets and say all this: tell the West that there are no Moderates in the regime (no matter how many PhDs they may have !) and the only way to have peace in the Middle East is to have regime change.

At what point did they kill tens of thousands of unarmed Americans in two days for protesting? When did they threaten to wipe a country off the map? I think you're missing the point in the article: it is nothing but a fantasy to think there are "moderates" in the Islamic Republic.

@SKordasti @DrEliDavid I'd go futher. Today, the society by and large supports anything that undermines the regime. The regime *is* the enemy... she must have missed January.

This simply shows how little you understand Iranian society, and how profoundly public support for war has changed since the 1980s. Today, Iranian society offers very little support to either this regime or its war, as clearly shown by years of demonstrations and protests against the regime in its entirety. It is a completely irrelevant comparison. #IranWar
Christiane Amanpour@amanpour

As the war with Iran enters a fourth week, a look back at our archives: how Iraq's 1980 invasion of Iran eventually consolidated the regime’s power and demonstrated an ability to overcome stark odds, at enormous human cost.

Fun fact: IRGC, the deadliest terrorist organization in the world, is still legal in Britain 🇬🇧. Everywhere else in Europe it is a designated terrorist organization.

It was a horrendous experience filled with misery and trauma. These moments remind me of those horrible days. Ramadan and its rituals, at least to me, aren't about inclusivity - quite the opposite in fact. They are a portrayal of oppression and an exclusionary way of life.
Mani Basharzad@ManiBasharzad

Ramadan in Iran made my life a misery “Do not expect me to see iftar as a wonderful expression of togetherness. For millions of people like me, this month meant exclusion from ordinary life and hundreds being flogged in public” ✍️Me in The Spectator spectator.com/article/ramada…

@SKordasti There's an attitude amongst some people that the regime is here to stay forever and cannot ever fall so will remain for all eternity I disagree

Interesting. He says it doesn’t matter how many layers of Iran’s political elite are killed, because there will always be others ready to take over. I had no idea the Islamic Republic had such an endless supply of capable and effective managers. If so, why was the country already in such a disastrous state even before the war? That doesn’t strike me as a very wise briefing. #IranWar
Siavash Ardalan@BBCArdalan

I briefed @BBCNews today on the new year message of Iran's new SL (or what's attributed to him), on how Iranians are celebrating Noruz in wartime, the prospect of regime collapse as it stands today, and Iran's strategy re Strait of Hormuz.

So the argument is: if they run out of generals, they can just promote a colonel overnight and carry on. Never mind that the newly minted commander won't know his command structure, where his office is (if it still exists), or for that matter, the password to the computer on his desk is. Brilliant analysis.
