I see the Yanks are complaining that the Chinese are giving Iran proper targetting data through their satellite info .
You couldn't make it up.
Looks like the war the neocons have been fantasizing about for years is coming and shit is getting real.

Israel and necons crew complaining Iran is fighting back and winning 😂

thanks to them Iran will come out of this war even stronger and a regional power ,

Israel totally struggling with FPV drones

US bases totally destroyed

Iran needs to be wiped off the map tbh. Cant claim tge straight

You need to go and lie in a dark room tbh.
You can't even think straight.
Even Americans have turned against this unprovoked war.

[mills_and_bhuna]

Meanwhile USA is fuming as Iran destroys secret US middle east  CIA bases

I love how the propaganda rags still refer US bases as 'defences'.

Notable queue jumper Holly Willoughby has a new show on You Tube which is being touted as a fully independent venture from the fallen mainstream TV star. The rumour is that it may be anything but “independent “ and is really a means for the legacy media to get its claws into You Tube to ease the way for bringing internet platforms (Amazon, You Tube, Netflix, etc) under the BBC licence fee.

That is true but mining Oman's waters and claiming ownership of the Straight is not OK.

Iran will emerge stronger than ever from this war whether you like it or not

so true , one of the best ones lately is in the financial times headline "Iran returns to war" you simply cannot make it up

But then you realize why so many people are out of date and out of touch

The US has done the same thing across the globe. If it’s ok for the US then it’s ok for anyone else.

A tax hike on high earners in Scotland has cost the public purse about £22 million in a single year, new analysis indicates.

Dan Neidle, a tax policy expert who was part of the Scottish government’s recently axed tax advisory group, said its decision to impose a 48p top rate had instead reduced revenues.

Rather than injecting money into struggling public services, as intended, evidence suggests high earners are so put off by the enormous rates, they are taking steps to avoid coming into that bracket.

Nothing is certain in life except death and rich people avoiding taxes

Its the same in England
Richer people leaving Britain responding to aggressive Labour tax policies
Labour clearly want them to leave
I think they figure that the brain drain will eventually lower the average IQ slowly aligning to the thick as labour wasters
Its not just the tax take which evaporates its the spending which they make which also evaporates too
At least some of the latter trickles down through the economy
Anyone who has the resources & ability to move would be mad not to.  Reasons ⬇️

The UK is increasingly crime ridden magnified by poor policing [PC correctness in overdrive] lightweight sentencing wokey-ness & the brown tide
Labours answer is after the rozzers & courts spend ages catching & convicting crims let them out early
Tho TBF its not just down to Labour prison capacity has been steadily getting worse for decades
Labour is all about rehabilitation in the community tags etc 

The scrotes who murdered the PC being dragged for a mile before he died getting let out early WTF & the sentences were way too short
Dragging people behind cars trucks is used as torture by the mislamics [no surprises there] & they film it for propaganda purposes
Its difficult to imagine a worse way to die

Those departing will be able to keep UK properties & visit for certain periods of time so they don't entirely quit the GB
I wish i was one of them i'm not   
Tho thankfully reasonably large parts of Surrey do still resemble middle england & the home counties
I feel sorry for people living in places which resemble Islamabad or are heading in that direction

Your  right here, thats why reform is needed. Its not about Hate. SO many can see London has fallen. London is actually known as Londistan now.
NHS is struggling, due to many going there for a cough. Certain groups clogging healthcare up etc. Surrey is a good part still. Bournemouth i used to go every summer not now.

Indeed its not about hate its about living
In Britain - with mostly British people & selective value adding imports
London is toast
As for Bournemouth i went there a couple of summers ago on a hot w/e
Fuck me sideways for a quarter of mile or so from the pier it was burkha city
There are big groups of migrants & stanis ghetto blasters going full tilt
The beach is free & they do like a bargain
At least some of them went in the sea which i suppose counts as a wash
Get that many white people together & the rozzers would split them up
Walking past them they like to stare you out its best to avoid eye contact [or as below dont go there]
The stanis are all about discrimination they have a caste system
The reason why they are fucked off with british people is that they know that the are at the bottom of the pile / system
There is a nice brasserie a good few hundred yards from the pier
They dont do tables for twenty unless its a party booked & its reassuringly expensive which puts them off, they're all on cool box city phew TFFT
Revisit on a hot weekend in the summer nope
Maybe the end of the summer when its quieter go for a ride you can go all the way to Sandbanks & have some lunch drinks along the way
In the summer do not go to Bournemouth at weekends in the week its just about ok

Yet the left appear to be perpetually baffled by this self evident truth. I'm old enough to remember when Nigel Lawson cut the top rate of income tax from 60% to 40%, and tax revenues shot up. The left were too busy complaining about Mrs Thatcher to notice.

With everything else’s that’s been going on, the ridiculous Clacton by-election, now two and a half weeks away (17 August), has rather drifted out of public consciousness.

There are 34 candidates, a record for a parliamentary election (the previous record was 26 candidates at Haltemprice & Howden in July 2008).

NIGEL FARAGE Andy Burnham’s cruel 10% ‘death tax’ plot is a slap in the face to hard-working Brits – PM should call an election now

An election now would be a disaster area
AB & labour in a honeymoon period
There's no rush Labour wont take long to start imploding again
& it will become clear to most people that labour are all about social welfare encouraging lazy fucktard scroungers
& encouraging the brown tide [future voters] fuck knows how many of these are worming their way onto the voters roll 

The ethos of work hard dont claim benefits & try to pass some wealth down to children has a hole blown in it
The rich supposed champagne socialists will have taken expensive tax advice to make sure they pay the square root of FA
Captain Big Ears i like your Netflix stuff but get real on tax & off you fuck

The brown tide hardly likely to pay any tax most of what they do is illegal like vape shops a front for criminality
& despite advancements in AI me thinks HMRC are struggling particularly with pakistanis as they've all got similar sounding spelt surnames
+ the 1st name Muhammad [+ however many variations] doesn't exactly narrow it down

Fuck me sideways the top 50 UK boys names include three variations of M
Girls names not so much as we all know muslims don't give a fuck about women
In their eyes muslim women here & in europe should think themselves lucky they've not had FGM [only coz its difficult to arrange & is a criminal offence]

Tony Faucci was subpoenaed to the US senate hearing today, where he pleaded the 5th amendment 121 times! But as he got a blanket pardon from Biden's autopen, he is likely in contempt of congress.
I just watched the whole hearing, he got BBQ'd! And wouldn't even answer what day it was.

Where do I begin? Fauci lied, he knew the virus originated from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, because he funded the gain of function research via EcoHealth Alliance.

Reading that CNN item, it appears he's fucked either way - contempt of Congress or perjury - either of them could end in jail time.

He could have admitted what he did, and walked free because of his pardon. Remember Steve Bannon was jailed for 4 months for refusing to give testimony.
