Contribution

No apology to our pilots who are risking their lives. And I am not going to take lectures from someone who says we should join the war and a week later says, “Can I change my mind? I got that wrong.” That is deeply embarrassing. But she is not the only one. Last week, the leader of Reform said we should be “part of this with the US and the Israelis…We have to get rid of the regime.” He said: “We should do all we can to support the operation. I make that perfectly, perfectly clear.” Until yesterday—screeching U-turn—when he said we should not “get ourselves involved in another foreign war.” Two parties packed with failed Tories, led by leaders who are not fit to be Prime Minister.
