It also needs to be added that when Boris Johnson resigned and plotted to topple Theresa May, Bannon said he advised him on his opening gambit — the nasty Islamophobic column about Muslim women looking like letterboxes and bank robbers bylinetimes.com/2019/10/10/a...

Reform by-election candidate Matt Goodwin, who has spent years talking about free speech and all that crap chickened out of a hustings today. As you can see - ALL the other candidates turned up

Perhaps I’m old-fashioned but an actual resignation has always struck me as a much more courageous vote of no confidence than a mere call for one…

Nick Abbot was right - whenever the left get a sniff of power, they form a circular firing squad and squabble amongst themselves like children. Totally fucking embarrassing.

Just beyond parody at this point

Morgan McSweeney’s fall offers a new beginning. Starmer and his cabinet had better grab it | Polly Toynbee www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

And Johnson actually put a son of KGB agent into the Lords. Where were the outraged media then?

The Times calls Keir Starmer's decision to hire Peter Mandelson an "egregious error" which deserves an "inquiry into the appointment process." Not included is any demand for an inquiry into their own appointment of him, long after his post-conviction relationship with Jeffrey Epstein was exposed

The media are salivating for Starmer to resign, I hope he doesn’t for the sake of the country! The country is sick of this chaos created by media.

The National Farmers Union have warned that it could take years to restore Brexit losses - we need to act fast to prevent any more damage to one of Britain's oldest industries.

Since #bbclaurak is trending, let’s remind ourselves that ONE MONTH ago, the BBC invited Mandelson on for a soft-ball interview on her show. While HIS CLIENT , Palantir’s Louis Moseley appeared as a pundit Both, as I wrote at time, were ‘abject failures of journalism’ 1/

Has anyone asked Nigel Farage what he thinks of his "resilient and brave" friend Donald Trump posting racist memes on Truth Social?

I am not surprised about the Right Wings Media’s hypocrisy about Mandelson. They all knew and many were pleased with Mandelsons appointment as Ambassador.

Boris Johnson’s Deputy Chief of Staff here, worried that secretly-funded lobby groups masquerading as ‘think tanks’ might finally be held to account. Because of course she bloody is.

OH MY WORD We are now: In the top 10 of news & politics podcasts And number 59 of ALL podcasts in the country! Only thing I can say is… Cheers Andrea Jenkyns!

You know I don’t like to boast but our show’s Rajar was up 80,000 listeners on the last quarter. So thank you.

Post-Brexit, Epstein told Thiel: "Brexit is just the beginning" – eyeing crypto deregulation via right-populism. 7/12

Most of our media is studiously ignoring the Epstein links to Brexit, Farage and far right populism. Farage is being touted for No.10. He wants an even more extreme Brexit. A race to the bottom to sell us out to this global network of oligarch crooks. Why TF isn’t he being investigated and stopped?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social The left often chase purity so hard that they end up opposing themselves, helping to bring down their own government in step with right wing media, the Cons, Reform, and bots.

European Movement UK now has over 27,300 members. 🚀 It was 26,000 last month. We need to build fast, because this will become the national campaign to rejoin the EU. Join us! 👉👉 www.europeanmovement.co.uk/membership-ab

In 2018 Steve Bannon bragged to Jeffrey Epstein about his influence over European politicians including Nigel Farage and that he could “shut down any crypto legislation or anything else we want”. What is Reform’s first and only piece of draft legislation? A pro-crypto Bill.

That would be Will Lewis. Knighted, inevitably, by Boris Johnson.

Nigel Farage is going to "save pubs" by cutting 5p off the price of a pint of beer... The £3 billion cost will be funded by reinstating the two-child benefit limit. This might be the worst policy anyone has ever come up with. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

OMG — so the son of the Crown Princess of Norway is going on trial for dozens of charges, including 4 counts of rape… after THE CROWN PRINCESS has had hundreds of mentions in the Epstein files. 😶

Very rich people knew they'd not be affected by Brexit or MAGA. They have mobility and money. Just a game and a gamble.

That question is a nasty insinuation. Starmer’s record, as former head of the CPS, drove changes on sexual offences and child sexual exploitation prosecutions. Disagree with an appointment if you like, but smearing his judgment by hinting otherwise isn’t scrutiny, it's just cheap smearing.

New email: Epstein and businessman/lawyer David Stern, talking about Mandelson as if he's on retainer. Epstein says "Do we need help - mandelson?" The reply: "too early to get Mandelson involved" Quick thread:

More integrity in his little finger than his detractors have displayed in entire careers.

@newsagents.bsky.social WHY are you sounding so surprised on ministers wrongdoing including insider trading? Remember Greenhill, Patels visit to Patel, Moderna Shares, Russia Report and Brexit influence, saving taxes for Developers, Covid Corruption etc, etc? This is politics of Donors, Influence.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Loved hour on the importance of the countryside. For me, the Overview Effect is a good example, living in a city, watching Earth from space creates an immersive experience where you feel completely absorbed. The beauty, presence, and sudden insignificance of everyday concerns.

🚨 Our study showed that the number of UK musicians playing at festivals in the EU is still down by 26% compared to pre-Brexit levels. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/l...

The death of Twitter, beautifully articulated by the legendary Stewart Lee. Catch this full episode of The Trawl anywhere you get your pods ✌🏾

Remember this👇Will she ask for this to be investigated? Our politic should be funded by the people, for the people, not for the donors like Bankers, Hedge Funds, oil Barons, Media Moguls, Russians, Supermarkets, Large Corporations. @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

Every single time Britain exercised a Brexit freedom, we ended up poorer or in a worse situation as a result. Just look at immigration under Boris Johnson, the dreadful NZ and Australian trade deals, the plight of our farmers, the loss of funds to the poorest regions, etc. etc.

Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

Oh.

People need to recognise these and Mandelson issues and call for further investigations, into Lebedev, the Russia Report, Mone, Priti Patel’s Israel visit and later return to office, Jenrick’s links to a developer avoiding £42m in tax, and Greensill’s presence in Number 10 under Cameron who isa Lord

Why isn't this a major news story?

One of the most disgusting, brutal and unpunished child‑abuse networks in the world… And the usual voices who claim to care about ‘women and girls’ have nothing to say. We see you.

You know who wasn’t blindsided by Brexit… Stewart Lee

Tomorrow marks the 6th anniversary of the UK leaving the EU. And to mark the occasion I have returned to a very personal tale of a friendship ruined - and the private regret that followed. I hope it will resonate. For @noosphere.app www.noosphere.app/them-how-bre...

Given his appalling remarks about Sunak its absolutely shocking that Konstantin Kisin is anywhere near the mainstream let alone on #bbcqt

History matters…..

Llandudno was one of the big beneficiaries of EU funding. Today, Farage — a man who helped drive Llandudno’s decline — turns up to warn you it’s on the edge of a cliff. Yes, the arsonist is back, claiming that if you just vote for him, he’ll save the building he helped burn down.

Don’t forget people…. Labour what are you doing by continuing with the Tory disastrous contracts with this company? @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

@alastaircampbell2.bsky.social Alastair you need to push back on Rory Stewart’s visceral hate of Starmer. He is like the bots on Twitter and other platforms. Starmer can’t say the same things as Rory can say, Rory is failing to mention Brexit isolation too! Starmer is doing great job internationally

@rory-stewart.bsky.social Rory your anti Starmer obsession is no better than the right wing bots and media pile ons. The UK isn’t Canada or the EU, Brexit left us isolated, the US leans on Canada for resources, and the EU is simply much bigger. Finger-pointing is easy when you ignore context. BREXIT
