Rather than 'Our Middle East Correspondent' - 'Our Spokesperson on behalf of the Israeli Military' is more accurate.
Presenter: "Lets talk now to our M/E correspondent Yolande Knell. Yolande, Israels been hitting Iran as Iranians mark Persian new year. Just bring us up to date with the latest" Knell immediately frames those Israeli strikes as a response to Iranian attacks on Israel Yes really

Americans aren’t being told what a catastrophic naval defeat the the United States is experiencing, with the USS Abraham Lincoln reportedly limping back to the U.S. after being struck by Iranian missiles—a loss so severe that some in the international media are declaring an end

What's the point of Yolanda? It would be easier to put an Israeli spokesperson in her place. Talk of going to 'our' bomb shelters? She's in Jerusalem which as far as I know hasn't been targetted by Iran.
As Israel slaughters hundreds of people in Lebanon and Iran and forces hundreds of thousands to flee their homes in terror, & while it continues its genocide in Gaza, Yolande Knell reports on the disruption to the daily lives of Israelis.

Oh dear. @BBCNews drooling over US firepower. Those sexy aircraft will be murdering people.
BBC journalist outside RAF Fairford: "a demonstration of the size of the American firepower that they can bring to bear when these kinds of conflicts arise" Such a good job the Americans have all that firepower for when, checks notes, America starts wars.

Has any TV interviewer pointed out that Iran is hitting US bases and oil infrastructure in the Gulf states?
Yvette Cooper (who backed the Iraq War) is asked what lessons we've learnt from Iraq Cooper: ".. this threat from Iranian nuclear weapons" Among other things Chilcot found the govt deliberately exaggerated the threat as a pretext for war The govt are doing it all over again

Petition: Call a public inquiry into pro-Israel influence on politics & democracy
petition.parliament.uk
We are concerned about reported Israeli state-linked and pro-Israel lobbying activity in UK politics. We believe it is important to determine the scope and impact of any such influence campaigns.

It's all coming out now. If you, like me, were a 'victim' of McSweeney's coup, our suspicions are now publicly vindicated. Let's make Your Party work.
"It is not a very healthy political culture." EXCLUSIVE: Ex-Labour MP defecting to the Greens Lloyd Russell-Moyle tells us that Morgan McSweeney and others around Keir Starmer are "dangerous".

This could have been implemented in the first week of the war. Boris Johnson told Zelensky to carry on, 'we've got your back' - Over a million troops and civilians killed (we don't know the figures yet).
This is allegedly the 28 points of the peace plan, which will end over 11 years of proxy war: 1. Ukraine's sovereignty will be confirmed. 2. A full and comprehensive non-aggression agreement will be concluded between Russia, Ukraine, and Europe. All the ambiguities of the past

What a depraved government we have.
My constituent is one of six political prisoners on hunger strike, demanding the right to a fair trial and the de-proscription of Palestine Action. I have written to David Lammy to demand urgent action. The government knows the truth: the weight of history is against them.
