Keir Starmer Describes The UK's Role in Trump's Middle Eastern Peace Plan.. Content Warning.
As Trump's peace plan comes into play, Sir Keir Starmer has been speaking about what the UK could bring to the table. Sir Keir described the Trump Peace Plan as a "historic day". Mr. Starmer said, "What happens tomorrow really matters, and that's why I've been discussing with leaders all day is what part can we play?". Sir Keir stated, "And we, in the UK in particular, I think, can play a part in monitoring the ceasefire, but also decommissioning the capability of Hamas and their weaponry, drawing on our experience in Northern Ireland. So the question today has already moved to, how do we implement, how do we make sure this moves forward? It's really important we keep the focus. We mustn't (make) any missteps now".

Robert Jenrick is The Preferred Tory Leader.
Kemi Badenoch has inherited a Tory Party utterly devastated by last year's general election. The Conservatives were reduced to 121 seats, a complete collapse in Conservative support. What a complete difference from when Boris Johnson won the 2019 general election in a landslide. Rishi Sunak remained as Tory leader until another leader could be chosen as Sir Keir Starmer walked into 10 Downing Street, as Reform UK gained its first 4 MPs. A Tory election occurred within the party to elect a leader to succeed the hapless Hindu Sunak.

Bagram Airbase: No Deal!
It was in 2021 when Allied forces pulled out of Afghanistan, seemingly falling to defeat to the juggernaut of the Taliban onslaught. Under an agreement for peace, the first Trump administration had agreed to pull its forces out of the country. Biden was left to pick up the pieces of this Trump-Taliban Agreement. So the US and Allies rushed to evacuate the country as the Taliban took control. It's been four years since the Allies pulled out, and the Taliban are now in full control of the country.

Hamas Partially Agrees to Trump's 20 Point Peace Plan.
Trump told Israel to stop bombing Gaza as Hamas accepted point one of Trump's 20-point peace plan. Israel said it would scale back operations in the Gaza Strip, including its latest offensive in Gaza City. A statement by Hamas said, "In this context, the movement (Hamas) affirms its readiness to discuss the details of this agreement". With this affirmation, a lasting peace and permanent ceasefire draw nearer. That said, a senior Hamas official said the group would not disarm until Israel pulled out of Gaza. The official said the hostages might be released within 72 hours.

Activist Greta Thunberg has been detained for the second time. The Israeli Navy intercepted the Samud flotilla, bringing much-needed supplies to Gaza. Reports had come in that drones with itching powder had been dropped on the flotilla. Other events happened, all blamed on Israel. Of course, Israel denied it, but who else could have done these things?

Tony Blair: Governor of Gaza?. Content Warning.
Former Prime Minister Tony Blair could find himself governing Gaza. He and Donald Trump could end up overseeing Gaza if the latest peace plan agreed by Trump and Netanyahu is accepted. Blair could well be Trump's man in Gaza. Overseeing the rebuilding of Gaza, gathering together Palestinians who will please all sides in eventually taking over from Blair. However, when Netanyahu touches down in Israel after his meeting with the US President, he will face a tirade of hate and praise.

Burnham: Scathing of Statements of Loyalty.
Andy Burnham has poured cold water on the Labour Party, asking him to remain loyal to Sir Keir Starmer. Mr. Burnham said it's all well and good, "demanding simplistic statements of loyalty", saying that they do not realise or have any understanding of how much "peril the Labour Party is in".

Charlie Kirk: Controversial in Life, Controversial in Death.. Content Warning.
If the killer who pulled the trigger thought that assassinating Charlie Kirk would silence him, they had another thing coming. His wife, Erica Kirk, made a tearful announcement of forgiving her husband's killer. She is now the leader of Turning Point. The organisation is dedicated to delivering a Conservative ethos both religiously and politically, and is growing exponentially.

Reform Would Win Today.. Content Warning.
Nigel Farage's greatest triumph was the Brexit Referendum in 2016. When the UK voted to leave the European Union. When, finally, in 2019, the Brexit Party (later Reform UK) stepped aside, allowing Boris Johnson to win a landslide negotiated with the EU to leave. So, how does leaving the UK look today? The Tories and the Brexit Party promised we would get back control of our borders. People who voted for the Conservatives and supported Nigel Farage were fed up with European migrants coming here. However, the biggest number of migrants coming here, illegal or legal, were/are non-Europeans. So, we stopped the free movement of Europeans coming here. Europeans coming here must get a visa via the points system, like any other immigrant now. Now we have hordes of people coming across the channel, seemingly with no real answer. And the immigration of non-Europeans remains larger than that of Europeans coming here. So, if you wanted to stop or reduce migrants, refugees, immigrants, that mantra of "Controlling our borders" really worked out well, didn't it!!!

Escalator Escapades, Teleprompter Trip Ups, and Sound System Shambles.
Everything that could go wrong did go wrong for Donald Trump. First off, when he arrived at the UN building, the escalator he mounted stopped working. Leaving the President and the First Lady stuck at the bottom of the escalator. Then, when Trump was making his speech at the UN auditorium, his teleprompter stopped working. And as if that wasn't bad enough, the sound system started to play up.

Only Trump Can Change Things. Content Warning.

Donald Trump is also expected to attend this meeting and address the UN on the subject.
