If you think that Jeffrey Archer “deserves respect” you clearly have no knowledge of his history. He was a venal man who lied about his educational background, committed fraud and was a bully. The Boris Johnson of his day.

Cut taxes, we lose access to public services. They’ve been constantly eroded since Thatcher and still our taxes haven’t been cut. Tax the rich more and cut tax for the average person but I’m happy to pay a little more to get good services, free education and state healthcare, like Scandinavians do.

Leader of party - that sold its own shrivelled soul to the devils of austerity and Brexit - will use her conference speech to slag off Labour (yawn) and make the only promise the Tories ever make - cutting taxes… They have nothing new or credible… or just plain nice… to say any more.

Childcare for those earning more than £100,000, an inheritance tax cut for the 4.72 per cent of people that pay it… The Tories are no longer even pretending they give a toss about the majority of people in the UK.

The BBC picked this up from The Guardian who broke the story, but only put it on local news, for them its only a "Bedfordshire " story. Worth reading the Guardian report for the extra twee racism use of "icky" www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

“Pulled”? Retreated from is more accurate. In the midst of a shooting war the USAF has just retreated from an enemy threat. Remarkable.

It’s a “system”. What more detail do you need? 🤣 Another question: If it’s “certainly” sea based, how is it protected from surface/sub surface attacks? It would take pretty much the entire current fleet of Naval ships and aircraft and more to protect many multiple sea based units.

U.S. forces are retreating. That's what this means. "Pulled out and returned to their home stations in the U.S. as potential Iranian threats raise base security concerns" is a fancy way of saying the Iranian military has the U.S. military in retreat. This is unbelievably embarrassing.
