Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

Ex-leader of Reform UK in Wales sentenced to 10.5 years in prison for taking bribes for pro-Russia interviews and speeches. Who else was involved,? Party can now add treason to racism, misogyny, islamaphobia, economic illiteracy as its electoral credentials.

Terrific

Tony O'Sullivan has a stark message for Wes Streeting. Bringing back private finance into the NHS is a betrayal of your principles. Agree? Sign our petition: vist.ly/4f69b

Epstein survivor: "Today we stand in a moment that will decide whether our government still belongs to the American people or to those who prey on them."

A question to Labour's few remaining supporters. Is kicking pensioners, disabled people and now asylum seekers what you voted for? Really? New column 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I asked the Home Secretary how it feels to kick away the ladder and introduce anti-migrant policies endorsed by fascist Tommy Robinson? She didn’t answer the question, calling it “beneath contempt”. The only thing beneath contempt is her pound-shop Powellism. Shame on her & this Labour government.

In which @owenjones.bsky.social carefully and irresistibly unpicks the sadistic, intellectually dishonest and politically self-defeating policies of Shabana Mahmood. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Interesting that you have left out the Israeli angle of the #Epstein conspiracy theory. Has it been decided that Trump will take all the flak and create a perfect smokescreen for Mossad?

“We Should All Be Epstein Conspiracy Theorists Now” My take on Trump and Epstein, and the pretty stunning email from Epstein suggesting he could bring down Trump. From this morning’s Zeteo ‘First Draft’ morning newsletter. Read/share/subscribe:

Is this what Labour politicians came into politics for? To get cheered on by Tommy Robinson as they kick some of the most vulnerable people on earth? How are they not all dying of shame

The truth will have its day. That day is now. Release all the Epstein files.

The biggest indictment of Western Democracy is that it allowed a monster like Trump to gain the most important job in the world. And now can't get rid of him!

Any mention of the Mossad connection? If not why not? Is it time for Mossad to throw their highest asset under the bus?! Is even Trump not safe?

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

No, I'd say it's racists and those pandering to them.

Today was Palestinian Independence Day. As Trump and Netanyahu’s disastrous postwar plans become clear, the U.S. must recognize and respect Palestinian statehood — as 81% of the world already does. Agency and dignity are the only ways we can achieve lasting peace.

Farage, Boris Johnson & Rees-Mogg apparently plotting assaults on UK democracy with Bannon, who was reporting back to Epstein. Nothing to see here, newspaper folk… www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

People have tried to say that the Green surge is just on social media. Or in a bubble that's just about polls and just about new members. Yet up and down the country - Greens are also winning elections. Huge congratulations to the Canterbury Greens! 💚🎉 Join.greenparty.org.uk

As pointed out at the other place: it’s a wonder that with his busy schedule of deliberately wrecking his own party to media outlets choking to repeat every word at this point, Mandelson managed to find the time to meet Jeffrey Epstein again. But he seems to have managed it.

They're continuing to starve them on purpose

Israel broke it all. The international mainstream media, prevented from reporting the truth. Israel flagrantly dismantled the rule of international law, they ignored the rules of military conduct regarding civilians and residential areas. m.youtube.com/watch?v=4VPf...

Fun fact: Today is the 1 year anniversary of Farage's foreign national girlfriend Ferrari buying his house. With unexplained wealth. That should be investigated...

Streeting is only the correct answer if the question is 'who is the Labour mp that most gives you the creeps' he even beats Starmer in that race!

Jeffries: "It's unbelievable that for 7 plus weeks Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva has been denied the ability to serve more than 800,000 people in Arizona because Republicans are running a pedophile protection program."

When Panorama slightly misled viewers about Trump the BBC got its head chopped off. When Panorama did much much worse to Jeremy Corbyn, it was nominated for a BAFTA. That describes the power structure pretty well. #bbcbias

BBC Trump row: Pro-Israel bias over Gaza is the real scandal - https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/bbc-trump-row-gaza-genocide-whitewashing-israel-bias

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

Raffi Berg who is a huge fan (he wrote a book about it) of Mossad is the @BBCs middle East editor. Panama did a whole programme slandering Corbyn's Labour as antisemitic! But no mention of this evident bias in the new row about the BBC.

A few more of their far-right management could clear off too and improve the BBC.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

No one 'earns' a trillion. Abolish the rich.

Tesla’s profit fell 37% in the third quarter. It's been in the process of laying off 14,000 workers. It had more cars impacted by recalls than any other brand in 2024. Yet Elon Musk just got a pay package worth $1 trillion. American capitalism is off the rails.

YOUNG PEOPLE. LISTEN UP. Today Nigel Farage said the government should cut the minimum wage for young people ...to “raise aspiration” and “boost business" It's £10ph FFS! Lower your pay so you’ll dream bigger DO YOU SEE IT NOW? Spread far & wide. bylinetimes.com/2025/11/03/n...

Please explain to me who has taken control of... Your Energy Your Water Your Healthcare Your Housing Your Rail Your Mail And who is it they want you to blame for all that?

Couldn’t love this more.

Capitalist logic

The world's 10 richest people (nearly all from the U.S.) are collectively $500 billion richer this year thanks to growth in stocks tied to AI. Meanwhile, data centers are sucking up communities’ water and electricity. AI is making the rich even richer while everyone else pays the price.

Of course it is. Mussolini and Hitler and Franco all blamed immigrants to seize power. The same old playbook is being used.

The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670 Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem If you’re angry about “your money” feeding people but not angry it’s giving tax cuts to the wealthy? You’re doing their dirty work.
