Israel's bravery shames our pusillanimous Prime Minister
It would, to say the least, be helpful if we had a Prime Minister who understood even his own supposed principles. Since taking office last year, Sir Keir Starmer has been admirably strong and consistent in supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression, at least in his statements, if not in actual firepower. But his response to the Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear and military sites is not just naïve, it is pusillanimous and shows how empty a vessel he really is: 'The reports of these strikes are concerning and we urge all parties to step back and reduce tensions urgently. Escalation serves no one in the region. Stability in the Middle East must be the priority and we are engaging partners to de-escalate. Now is the time for restraint, calm and a return to diplomacy.' Starmer grasps the need to stand up to Putin's aggression, but crumbles into spineless diplo-speak when confronted by a theocratic tyranny. For a leader with a clear understanding of the Iranian threat – of reality, in other words – there should be relief, not consternation. Just yesterday, for example, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) declared that Iran was in breach of its non-proliferation obligations, refusing to answer questions on uranium particles found in undeclared sites in the country and the stockpiling of uranium enriched to nearly weapons grade. Iran then revealed it is operating a previously secret new uranium enrichment centre. The threat of an Iranian nuclear weapon has not been theoretical but very real and increasingly imminent. According to Sir Keir, 'Now is the time for restraint, calm and a return to diplomacy.' This is the precise opposite of what it is the time for. Diplomacy led us to the disastrous Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) which relaxed sanctions on the regime, handed it huge amounts of money from oil exports, and thus funded not just the Iranian proxies Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis but the nuclear weapons programme. In this sense Israel has been acting not only on its own behalf but on behalf of all those Middle Eastern states which have been destabilised by Iran – and on behalf of the West itself. This is a familiar story; twice before Israel has saved us all from nuclear enemies, in 1981 when it destroyed Saddam's reactor in Iraq and in 2007 when it destroyed Assad's facilities in Syria. One irony of this is that the so-called Free Palestine brigade, who will doubtless be back on the streets soon, should be cheering Israel today – if they genuinely cared about securing a Palestinian state. There are reports that the UK is on the verge of recognising such an entity next week at the special UN conference called by France. But there will never be a secure and stable Palestinian state while Iran continues to spread its malign influence through its proxies – and should it acquire a nuclear weapon the prospect of a Palestinian state would be the first casualty. Contrary to Sir Keir's spineless timidity, this is the time for action by a clear eyed state which understands the threat posed by its enemy and is willing to act to defend itself by neutering that threat. Far from stopping now as Sir Keir urges, it is essential that Israel finishes the job it began last night. Israel has not started a war – it has prevented one.

China tells G7 to stop 'manipulating' China issues for its own agenda
BEIJING (Reuters) -China warned the Group of Seven advanced economies on Friday against "manipulating" issues related to the world's second-largest economy for their own agenda, after they accused Beijing of unfair business practices a year earlier. Beijing's criticism of the G7 and what it represents comes amid a surge in global trade tension between the United States and China this year, as well as within the bloc's membership. In remarks ahead of a three-day G7 summit in Canada set to start from Sunday, Lin Jian, a spokesperson of the Chinese foreign ministry, accused the group of having always upheld a Cold War mentality. The bloc should "stop interfering in other countries' internal affairs, stop undermining other countries' development, (and) stop manipulating issues related to China," Lin told a regular news conference. The G7 provokes conflicts and confrontations, said Lin, adding that such practices were "doomed to fail". In the communique after its 2024 summit in Italy that mentioned China more than 20 times, the G7 said its companies needed to be protected from China's unfair business practices. It also warned of action against Chinese financial institutions that helped Russia obtain weapons for its war in Ukraine. The participation of countries beyond the grouping, such as India and Brazil, in last year's event also irked China, which viewed the move as a bid to sow discord among countries of the Global South. New leaders will represent five of the G7's members - Britain, Canada, Germany, Japan and the United States - at next week's summit.

Darren Jones Admits To 'Insulting' Zia Yusuf's Intelligence In Catty Exchange On BBC Question Time
Labour minister Darren Jones could not hide his frustration last night as Reform UK's Zia Yusuf continually dodged questions about how his party would actually pay for its promises. The chief secretary to the Treasury even admitted he was 'insulting' Yusuf's intelligence as they argued over the possibility of future tax rises. It comes after the government splashed the cash in its spending review on Wednesday, prompting opposition parties to predict that Labour would have to hike up taxes in the autumn to pay for it. The government claims departmental budgets are all fully-funded – while also refusing to rule out future tax hikes in the future. On Thursday's BBC Question Time panel, tensions began to build when Jones said he found Yusuf's comparison between Labour and the Tories 'personally offensive', before listing his government's achievements. The minister added: 'The thing that is the same is when Reform and the Conservatives give you simple answers to complex promises but do not tell you how they are going to do it.' Looking at Yusuf, he said: 'Those are the questions you should be answering.' 'I'll tell you what's offensive – insulting the intelligence of the British people,' Yusuf said. Jones cut in: 'I didn't – I insulted your intelligence. Answer the question!' Yusuf ignored that and pressed on while Jones repeatedly asked to explain 'how' Reform would govern. 'There's no answer,' Jones said eventually. But Yusuf insisted: 'The British people are sick and tired of being gaslit. The prime minister of this country does it all the time you see it on his social media account, you are unwilling to be honest with the British people. 'You consistently prioritise foreign citizens.' The minister hit back: 'You did not answer your questions how you would do anything you have promised. 'I'll tell you what the British people are sick of, and that's false promises. That's why they voted for change at the last election.' Yusuf's appearance came a week after he suddenly resigned as Reform's chairman, claiming it was not a 'good use' of his time trying to get them elected into No.10. He rejoined within 48 hours but is now working as the head of Reform's Elon Musk-style UK DOGE (department of government efficiency) and looking at cutting waste. When Reform promise you everything you could have wished for, remember to ask them this important question: how? — Darren Jones MP (@darrenpjones) June 12, 2025 BBC Question Time Audience Member Brands Reform 'The Comedy Club' As Zia Yusuf Awkwardly Looks On Zia Yusuf Says Reform Would Deport All Illegal Immigrants – But Nigel Farage Has Said That's 'Impossible' 'You've Been Muscled Out': Nick Robinson Goads Zia Yusuf For Quitting As Reform Chairman
