Israel is waging a war of words with Iran’s new supreme leader, who is in hiding and possibly in a battered condition. Israeli Intelligence is letting it be known that they know exactly where he is. Meanwhile, Iran is denying rumours that he’s in hospital in Put’nstan and claiming that Mr. Ne10yahoo is dead.

Rethink
Another well-worn adage has been busted by the experts. No, opposites don’t attract. People really want someone who is very similar to themself as that type of person is less likely to cheat on them, having the same values and goals.
Don’t call us
Should we be swanning around the world, sorting out every spot of trouble bloody foreigners get in to? We’ve given them centuries of our time and our civilization. What have we ever had in return? Not even a word of thanks. Just demands for compenbluddysation for the slave trade, which the British Navy ended at great cost of British lives. Sod the lot of them, ungrateful bastards. That should be our message.
Another alibi on offer
Why won’t Labour get even close to its target of 5 billion new houses by 2029; or whatever? Israel’s attack on Iran has shoved the cost of bricks and mortar through the roof. And inflation means no one can afford to buy them anyway.
Words Explained
Womansplaining: Seldom heard as, unlike men, females tend to keep what they know to themselves to avoid losing power and status to others. Unless their knowledge is essentially worthless (see Influenzer).
Nowt to do with us, Gov
One single, solitary Iranian drone hits the RAF base on Cyprus. Is that a reason to send a British battleship? (if we had one) Cyprus now has its independence; apart from the bit the Turks occupied illegally in 1974. If it rejected Britisch rule in 1960, it must live with the consequences as we now owe it nothing.
Laboured crawl
HMS Dragon is seen to be dragging its keel on the voyage to Cyprus in response to a single Iranian drone after cramming six weeks of repairs into so many days. A stopover in Gibraltar and chugging along at 13 knots means the destroyer won’t arrive off Cyprus until next week.
To do what?
