BREAKING: “That I wasn’t told that he (Mandelson) had failed security vetting when I was telling Parliament that due process had been followed is unforgivable. Not only was I not told, no minister was told” - Keir Starmer Absolutely staggering

"There are people that would love to get Keir Starmer out of Downing Street... but this is not the thing to do it over." Labour MP Barry Gardiner says the news that Lord Mandelson had failed his security vetting should not form the basis of a leadership challenge. #Newsnight

I sounded the alarm about Donald Trump’s sons backing drone company, Powerus. Now, Powerus wants to sell drones to countries under attack by Iran. Are Trump’s sons cashing in on the war their father started? Americans deserve answers.

Yesterday Israel bombed an ambulance in Lebanon, killing paramedic Hassan Badawi Over the last two & a half years Israel systematically targeted healthcare workers in Gaza, murdering hundreds, and the failure of the world to take action means Israel is free to do it again.

President Donald Trump commented on Mountbatten-Windsor's
arrest, calling the situation "a very sad thing."

"Well, you know, I'm the expert in a way because I've been totally exonerated. It's very nice. So I can actually speak about it very nicely," he told reporters at Air Force One Thursday. "I think it's very sad, I think it's so bad for the royal family. It's very, very sad. To me, it's a very sad thing.

When I see that, it's a very sad thing."
