When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.

🔍 An SNP investigation has revealed Starmer’s failed Brit card scheme cost the public almost £1 million - despite never being implemented. www.heraldscotland.com/news/2587477...

Another ‘inquiry’ with so much Conflict of Interest’ that it becomes pointless from the start. Good to know the “I’ll clean up politics” statement is another Starmer lie

Change my mind.

Ex-Prime Minister Blair & ex-Prince Charles getting sucked into the Mandelson-Epstein -Mossad spy scandal Either they were briefed about the paedophilia & Zionist spying and chose to ignore it Or the whole of MI5, MI6, British security services should be sacked for gross incompetence

This is a story from The National on the failure of the UK Gov to provide the promised funding What will it take for ALL Scots to waken up to the inescapable fact that the UK Gov wants Scotland to fall at every hurdle in order to sabotage Indy ambitions? www.thenational.scot/news/2585448...

Global Counsel, founded and part-owned by Peter Mandelson, calls in administrators. Blames loss of clients after Epstein disclosures. Clients doing ethics wash to reinvent themselves. For years they used Mandelson to gain advantage, and knew his history.

We’ve all had enough of politicians lying to us, right? Reckon on that we can all agree Which is why I’m absolutely buzzing for this legislation that would criminalise lying in politics …”punishable by up to two years in jail!” GAME-CHANGER news.sky.com/story/hillsb...

Orbrex was a small start up space company with a very promising future It was based in the Highlands and had secured business with the EPA to launch satellites The UK Gov had initially promised funding for the project but failed to follow through Every time Scotland seems to get ahead in technology/

Starmer brought in ANOTHER sex pest — and he knew...

Word!!

Humiliated in the media, denied healthcare, attacked by the human rights watchdog, shut out by the Supreme Court, bullied by social services and the police, disadvantaged in the jobs market, death figures covered up by the State, harassment de facto legalised, and attackers deified by Ministers.

"Antonia Romeo becomes the new Cabinet Secretary — amid swirling allegations of bullying" ' ... she’d probably fit right in with the pack of tax-dodgers, expenses-fiddlers, genocide-defenders, and bigots that make up the current UK government' www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Another big Labour scandal. Another lie. Another attempt at a cover up. Actions should have consequences. He should resign or be fired. But will he? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Well done for getting in before replies were turned off 😆😆😆

Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.

May be relevant that the case law on the offence of misconduct in public office says that the definition of the offence does not require that the holder of public office is paid - www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWC...

Night of the Living Muppets

Peter Mandelson’s influence on Keir Starmer’s Labour was so pervasive that he was involved in the secret spreadsheet for selecting Labour candidates in the 2024 general election. But he wasn’t the only corporate lobbyist who helped choose Labour MPs. Full story in the new Private Eye, out now.

What a load of utter shit this paper comes up with Some questions: When did being married become rightwing? When did pop stars ever live modestly? How is an album homespun? Is it made of gingham? Why is everything in this paper loaded like a party political broadcast for Nigel fucking Farage?

Reform is soft on Russia. And it's stuff like this which explains why 👇🏻

I kind of hoped Democracy for Sale would be out of a job or at least on a long sabbatical after the General Election.. it seems not ..

Starmer is desperate to continue with the plan to convert the UK to an archipelago of zones owned by unaccountable private entities, with minimal regulation, exemptions from most laws, workers and environmental protections. The rest of us will be under 24/7 surveillance.

Scotland’s FOI Act law has received a rating of 103 out of a 150 points by the International Centre for Law and Democracy. Scotland is in the upper rankings when compared to international laws. The UK Westminster FOI Act currently has a rating of 92 points. www.foi.scot/internationa...

The extent to which Starmer’s ministry has ended up instrumentally hating British institutions because a plurality of elderly Middle England voters hate British institutions, is remarkable Destroying Britain so “save” it from Farage

Don't worry you can be sure with Two Tier Keir Starmer that the next disaster or U turn won't be far away. He's an accident just waiting to happen.

Oh look, freed from the poor influence of McSweeney, Starmer shows his innate ‘decency’ by…. …proposing more authoritarian measures on access to information, including: “the British government said its consultation on child safety would include potential age restrictions for VPNs.”

I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.

Jeepers. This is scary.

Fighting age man flees his homeland to seek asylum on overcrowded island.

Think you know what has happened in UK politics (15 Jan - 14 Feb 2026)? I scored 12/20 in 3m 21s. amicite.co.uk/wibq-15jan26...

Two weeks ago, Peter Mandelson told us he had no recollection of planning to buy a £2m apartment in Rio via a Panama holding company and a Brazilian company. Yesterday we found notarised incorporation documents for the Brazilian company, with Mr Mandelson's signature.

It's all connected. LIKE WE'VE BEEN SHOUTING:

an awful lot of fuss about the likely new cabinet secretary’s taste in shoes and so on, seems to me this is more relevant 👇

For months, we have been digging into a big myth — that strong social protection holds back economic growth.🔍 Spoiler: it doesn’t.💪 We launch our findings tomorrow in our report 'More than a Safety Net'. Stay tuned.🚀 For now, hear it from @stephenboydippr.bsky.social ⤵️

As the BBC report that Starmer had no idea Doyle had links to a paedophile this debunks the lie www.thenational.scot/news/2572601...

The same people who tell us “oh, dear boy, you don’t understand” when reassuring us about Palantir embedding itself in the British state were almost exactly the same people who told us Russian interference, Cambridge Analytica and phone hacking were just ‘conspiracy theories’

A fair point. The al Fayed Harrods sex abuse and trafficking scandal has led to zero consequences. The Met Police have rec'd over 140 reports of alleged offences (incl rape, sexual assault & trafficking) spanning decades, but no charges have been brought. So far, Starmer's govt has done nothing.

5. For me, a massive frustration has been the government’s war on nature: falsely pitching wildlife against human welfare, tearing down essential protections for the tiny scraps of ecosystem that remain here. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

When people say “but what about the good policies” they fail to understand the anger these things produce. As someone living on benefits due to disability & *still trying* to get PIP, the attack on disability alone was so personal, so cruel, literally nothing they do now would make me trust them

Less than six hours between these posts. Excellent journalism, Paul. Thank you.

This is incredibly funny to try because even if it *was* true, then it would mean Streeting was defending Mandleson in September for the love of the game.
