@ChrisMayLA6 do X because it's popular

should not be the goal.

do X because it's right

should.

And therein lies the problem with the modern labour party

@ChrisMayLA6 agreed. It’s also true that he’s consciously and determinedly dug the hole deeper

@ChrisMayLA6 If the UK won't stand behind the concepts of international law, then there will be no international law. Not because the UK is especially powerful, but that without the whole hearted support of the vast majority of nations, the whole concept unravels.

@ChrisMayLA6
If Starmer has made any attempt to ameliorate the position he inherited he’s been careful to ensure that we, the great unwashed, remain ignorant.
To the casual, nay, critical eye it looks like Britain is just as dependent on the US as 4 years ago.

@ChrisMayLA6 Well, Starmer should be prepared for the consequences of writing a blank cheque to a bunch of nutty crusaders.

That promise of allowing ‘defensive strikes on missiles and drones’ will quickly become a licence to bomb everything everywhere in search of the last tiny Shahed portable drone, until Iran looks like Gaza.

Rather than sneering at Davey & Polanski, Behr could ask how much has been spent on RAF support to Israel & the Gulf in the past two years, and who voted for that?
