@Hepworthclare It was awful, she let Wes Streeting ramble on without challenge

Victoria Derbyshire interviewing Wes Streeting on #bbclaurak Classic gold standard interviewing & presenting. She understood the questions she asked & listened carefully to responses - interjecting only to clarify. Agree or disagree with WS, it was an interview worth watching.

@vicderbyshire @BBCOne This is a party political broadcast for Labour Really poor interview with @wesstreeting so far, you are supposed to challenge him.

Morning.. am standing in for #BBCLauraK 9am @bbcone So much to discuss with our guests who include ex-head of MI6 Sir Alex Younger, for the government Wes Streeting, leader of Lib Dems Sir Ed Davey, Mary Beard, Kay Burley, Tucker Carlson, Peter Capaldi

@EmmanuelMacron You terrorist loving twitter

Je me suis entretenu avec le Président iranien Massoud Pezeshkian. Je l’ai appelé à saisir l’opportunité que représentent les discussions lancées à Islamabad pour ouvrir la voie à une désescalade durable et à un accord exigeant qui apporte des garanties solides pour la sécurité dans la région, avec l’ensemble des pays impliqués. J’ai marqué la nécessité que l’Iran restaure au plus vite la liberté et la sécurité de circulation dans le détroit d’Ormuz, à laquelle la France est prête à contribuer. J’ai insisté sur l’importance d’un respect total du cessez-le-feu, y compris au Liban. La France apporte tout son soutien à l’action des autorités libanaises, qui sont les seules légitimes pour exercer la souveraineté de l’État et décider du destin du Liban.

@darrenpjones @PMalinauskasMP Have you seen what the current government are doing to Australia I am not surprised you support them, both governments happy to destroy the country’s they govern

We see eye to eye with the Aussies on many things - coffee, Kylie, BBQs - but not the rules of football! Great to visit @PMalinauskasMP to discuss our AUKUS defence partnership, and to learn from Labor’s huge election victory against the populist right in South Australia.

@dimeji_csv @Keir_Starmer What good work He has done SFA

Well said PM, keep up the good work! Good of you to be there in the golf to show your support and represent our country and reassure our allies that we’re right behind them. But let’s not get carried away. The reason they were attacked is because of the illegal war started by the failed state and the US. If we don’t keep those 2 countries in check, things can escalate quickly again.

I was in the Middle East this week. Here’s why.

My god this man’s ego is off the scale

@Keir_Starmer Who on earth do you think you are strutting around as if you are relevant. Rushing to the Middle East trying to claim glory in the peace deal. You are neither trusted nor wanted on the world stage. You have embarrassed this country in ways you will never comprehend.

@10DowningStreet @Keir_Starmer He does not have the power to ensure anything. Weak and an embarrassment on the world stage

Throughout the conflict, @Keir_Starmer has been clear: we must see full de-escalation. In the Middle East this week, he met with our international allies to ensure freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and thanked our Armed Forces for their tireless work to keep us safe. Britain has been buffeted by crises for almost two decades now. We will emerge from this one stronger, more secure and more resilient.

@ukhomeoffice What absolute garbage

British taxpayers cannot be expected to fund the lives of those who exploit the system or break our laws. Asylum support and accommodation will only be available to those who play by our rules.

@campbellclaret @ZelenskyyUa Another Zelensky sycophant

Thank you @ZelenskyyUa for being so generous with your time, your insight and your candour. And good luck with the European 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 🇳🇴 🇹🇷 plan!!! Europe needs to step up in the face of Russian aggression and American retreat from values we thought they shared

@Keir_Starmer Your focus is self interest and grandstanding on the world stage trying to make yourself more important than you are.

My focus is, and always will be, the British national interest.

@AaronBastani @PahlaviReza And the British people think he is a wanker

@PahlaviReza The Shah of Maryland doesn’t matter more than the British public, whose interests a British Prime Minister is meant to focus on.

The United Kingdom has endlessly appeased the criminal regime in Iran. The Prime Minister speaks of protecting the innocent civilians of Iran but failed to act to help stop the regime’s massacre of 40,000 innocent Iranians in January. Only an end to this regime - that brings terror to Britain’s own shores - will yield lasting peace and regional stability. Keir Starmer should follow in the footsteps of Churchill, not Chamberlain. He should support the Iranian people’s fight for liberty. The Iranian people will remember who stood with them in their hour of need and who stood against them. There is still time for the Government to change course: prosecute the IRGC that slaughters innocents, expel the illegitimate regime's ambassador, and act to support the people of Iran.

@Keir_Starmer A picture paints a thousand words

The war in Iran must now become a line in the sand, because how we emerge from this crisis will define all of us for a generation. We will build a Britain that is stronger, more secure and more resilient. That is what this moment demands. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@campbellclaret He is a slime ball

Trump makes everything about himself. When I spoke to Zelensky, he was the opposite inews.co.uk/opinion/trump-…

@wesstreeting @UKLabour @LGA_Labour Delusional

From Sunny Swindon to Red Hot Reading, great to join our brilliant teams on the local election campaign trail today. Both showing what @UKLabour councils working with a Labour government can achieve together. Working hard for every vote 🌹

@Keir_Starmer You really are a coward, coming out once a ceasefire has been called. YOU are totally and utterly irrelevant on the world stage.

The two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran today is welcomed by the UK and our allies. The goal now must be a lasting end to the war. Alongside our international partners, the UK will work to ensure a return to freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.

@FCDOGovUK @YvetteCooperMP Do you not realise how irrelevant you are. Not a word and all of a sudden grandstanding once the ceasefire has started

Foreign Secretary @YvetteCooperMP statement on the announcement of a two week ceasefire between the US, Israel and Iran.

@Keir_Starmer Getting involved after the event again Your opinion is totally irrelevant on the world stage. Not a word yesterday but now there is a ceasefire off you go to virtue signal You coward

I welcome the ceasefire agreement reached overnight, which will bring a moment of relief to the region and the world. Together with our partners we must do all we can to support and sustain this ceasefire, turn it into a lasting agreement and re-open the Strait of Hormuz.

@ZelenskyyUa How about you start worrying about Ukrainians and stop trying to dictate to everyone else

It is unfortunate that the UN Security Council has once again failed to demonstrate effectiveness and act decisively in the face of such a global threat as the Iranian regime's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. No one should be allowed to block such globally significant sea lanes or undermine the security of dozens of nations through terrorist attacks against the freedom of navigation. We faced a similar challenge in the Black Sea when the Russians attempted to block our ports and civilian shipping—Russia was trying to suffocate our economy. And we found a way to solve that problem through decisive action, not inaction. Now, we see a similar problem on a global scale. The Strait of Hormuz must remain open to all vessels that sustain vital economy lifelines and maintain normal international trade. Countries in the region have spoken clearly on this, and we support the aspirations of the people of the Middle East and the Gulf for peace. Peace and security in this region directly impact stability, market predictability, and the cost of living in every single country. Such problems and this war must not be prolonged. The world needs a functional UNSC that acts more decisively to resolve acute security challenges of global magnitude.

@bphillipsonMP @ChronicleLive Parents will have more money in their pockets you say You have no idea what they will spend it on

Yesterday in Newcastle, I met with families set to benefit from the scrapping of the two child limit. Parents will have more money in their pockets, children will have better life chances. That’s the difference a Labour government makes. My interview with @ChronicleLive 🎙️
