The BBC: "On Tuesday, the UK raised the threat to British shipping in Iranian waters in the Gulf to the highest level."

Iranian boats in Iranian waters were threatening a British ship. The Iranian navy claims that the British ship was carrying weapons of mass destruction that could hit Tehran in 45 minutes.

The Iranian supreme leader, in a speech broadcast on state TV, said: " I strongly believe that the British ship was carrying WMD. I do believe that the British developed them with the knowledge of the 'international community', and they pose a threat to the whole region. We will defend our people and our land with whatever means possible..."

No one was able to very the claim that the British ship was carrying any WMD.

Jeremy Hunt, a would-leader of the free world, was open about it: "We are desparate for a war and we will stand shoulder to shoulder with our American, Saudi and Emirati allies against the Mullahs and their way of life, especially in the sea."

For years he has been drumming and singing about "free market" and "liberal democracy", and he is still unable to question what is wrong with Britain and the rise of English nationalism. He is still full of hate to anything that smells left-wing or even social democratic, let alone socialism.

Note, for example, that he calls Jeremy Corbyn a Trotsky. And that is supposed to be an analysis of theoretical and political quality in a quality paper.
The best of liberal mediocrity
