So what’s the plan then?
As Chairman of the Intelligence Committee, let me make clear: whoever leaked this lied. CNN should do some fact-checking. The U.S. has planned for Iran to try to close the strait for decades.

Canada and the US at opposite ends of the scale on how people view their fellow citizens. Might explain something. Good to see UK much closer to Canada than US
85% of Australians see other Australians as “good”. The 15% might be loud but they are a minority, an angry, grievance driven, bitter minority. Don’t let them turn our nation into another divided states of America.

Cyprus offers hard lessons for UK defence: - weakness of its anti-air defences - spending debate too often framed around Russia, the armed forces are exposed against far lesser enemies too - initially denying US rights to bases made no difference. Iran hit anyway. War may chose

I’d be first to concede that lobby journalism is sometimes too concerned with political soap operas at expense of the substance but does Starmer *seriously* think the press ought to have dialled back on Mandelson to make way for the govt’s zillionth breakfast club press release?

If Mandelson wasn’t already finished, this would certainly do it…
PETER MANDELSON, JEFFREY EPSTEIN AND THE 'DEAR GORDON' NOTE Lord Mandelson sent the paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein a private email to Gordon Brown that contained highly sensitive market information on secret plans to sell off government assets As per @DanNeidle it is

The Mail has a point here. The more comes out the clearer it gets: Epstein was interacting first and foremost with Russia-aligned interests. It is not just a story about a notorious pedophile.
Epstein's sex empire was 'KGB honeytrap': Paedophile financier had multiple talks with Putin after conviction - with Russian girls flown in to harvest 'kompromat' on world-famous figures
