This isn’t the first government that has tried to designate the IRGC as a terrorist organisation.

Successive governments in the past have also attempted to list it as such but stopped short of doing so. This is because the IRGC is still an arm of the Iranian state and that has presented some legal challenges.

Outgoing PM Starmer did table a bill in parliament in April as he wanted it to be a part of his legacy package and he seems to be fast-tracking it through.

          Not trying to pull you into anything mate Just pointing out how your argument of the British army being different from the IRGC is such a tired old colonialist viewpoint, just because they aren’t publicly making statements about murdering civilians doesnt mean they don’t have an active hand in orchestrating it And fuck you my outrage against the ongoing slaughter of women and children carried out over the past 3 years is not feigned
