Gov. Tim Walz: "They left us with deep damage. Generational trauma. Economic ruin in some cases. The left us with many unanswered questions. Where are our children? Where and what is the process of the investigation into those that were responsible for the deaths of Renee and Alex?"

Also, this is nuts: "For the 2019 general election, £3.4 million of donations came into our political system, potentially influencing people, but did not then appear in the Electoral Commission’s records." The records held by councils are actually destroyed after not very long.

"The Bill still leaves the door wide open to foreign money. It is just that the foreign billionaire or government will need someone in the UK to cooperate with them. Which is no real barrier at all." open.substack.com/pub/lordseye...

I've just signed "Back the National Commission Amendment" - Will you support the campaign too? actionstorm.org/petitions/ncer @OpenBritainHQ

If you missed the exchange between @raskin.house.gov and Pam Bondi today, watch this masterful statement from him on behalf of the Epstein victims: “You are siding with the perpetrators and you are ignoring the victims. That will be your legacy.” Repost if you agree she is the worst AG in history.

Notable how little UK Govt, and specifically the health secretary, have to say about this. No sense that they can shape public behaviour. Very passive.

This is really encouraging. It's not too late to stop this.

Scandal after scandal is eroding trust in our democracy. We need reforms to clean up Westminster. Please sign our letter. secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/186467/...

First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped. Yet the Representation of the People Bill won’t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented. Tell Keir Starmer to change this. actionnetwork.org/petitions/th...

Totally wrong. Totally out of step with British values. He should apologise now.

A crypto investor just donated £9 million to the Reform Party. Right now, billionaires can pour unlimited money into our elections, effectively buying our democracy. Think that's wrong? Add your name to call for a cap on donations today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...

Well he can fuck straight off.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe on SkyNews just now showing himself to be entitled, ignorant and bigoted all in one interview. Quite an achievement!

🔴Reform MPs Accused of Pandering to Putin After Skipping Russian Interference Debate Nigel Farage’s party refused to attend the debate, called after more than 100,000 people signed a petition demanding a public inquiry into Russian interference in British politics bylinetimes.com/2026/02/10/r...

Something magnificent about Kemi Badenoch's self-confidence, and her claim that the Mandelson affair is entirely down to her asking questions at PMQs. Like a toddler who thinks their plastic steering wheel is controlling the car.

The Trump administration is creating a "slush fund" to turbocharge MAGA groups in the UK and EU, according to the FT. This is code fucking red for democracy.

So Boris Johnson, Prince Phillip, Andrew Bonar Law, Freddie Mercury, George I, George II, Richard E Grant, Douglas Carswell, Rudyard Kipling, Cliff Richard, Joanna Lumley and Spike Milligan weren't British? Interesting www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

America desperately needs a functioning and independent House as a check on Trump’s chaos and mania. It will never have that as long as Mike Johnson is Speaker. Every vote for a House Republican is a vote to give Trump unchecked power for two more years.

The billionaire Media wants you to vote Reform.

Europe is our home - we must return to our rightful place at the heart of it.

Oh!

No-one seems to have noticed, but many of the core developments in the Mandelson/Epstein story these last few days have been broken on this website. @pickardje.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social are both posting each breaking development on BlueSky, not X.

This can be the site for breaking news, if journalists choose to break news on it. It is as simple as that. And that is not utopian. It is precisely what has happened the last week or so. If you weren't on BlueSky, you were late to each development.

Reform UK criticised councils for raising council tax during the 2025 Local Elections. Now they are across the board, and cutting services as they do. Never trust Reform UK.

Post-Brexit sales of British farm products to EU fall by 37%. Brexit has brought no benefits and left the UK exposed in the era of tariffs and trade wars. Farage and Tories lied about Brexit. Govt can get economic growth by rejoining the EU. Our future is in Europe, not in being the 51st state.

Oh!!!

Today, I challenged the Government on the measures in place to support victims of domestic violence. Anyone who seeks help from the police must feel protected, not failed by processing errors. Such failures are unacceptable and must never be repeated. www.facebook.com/share/v/166i...

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/

It’s almost like Putin is running our foreign policy.

NEW: Reform UK’s flagship council, Kent, has been accused of telling a “blatant lie” after its claim of nearly £40m in savings on net zero were found to be based on hypothetical projects for which there was no documentation. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Disgusting man!

Morning! This!

Disgusting man!

So true. Also, many of the Americans doing literally nothing about Epstein’s American ‘associates’ are precisely the ones lying about Europe & particularly the UK being overrun with child-rapists. It’s insane.

forgot to share the link sorry www.ft.com/content/f869...

Farage is named by Steve Bannon in emails in the Epstein files; as their man in the UK, and another one says, 'Brexit is just the beginning'. Farage is clearly toxic for the British people, but right wing media, including BBC continue to ignore the mountains of evidence that prove he's treasonous.

I looking forward to the BBC’s “Lib Dems: ready to rule?” programme! When is it on again?

The only reason people like Musk, Epstein and Bannon have any influence on our elections is because our politicians depend on money to win elections. Time to remove private financing from our political system altogether!

Remember the controversy when Obama was accused of intervening in UK politics? This is the current US government openly seeking to undermine liberal democracy in Europe.

Ok UK media - oh so scandalised by Mandelson - when are you going to be scandalised by US interference in our democracy? Epstein, Farage, Bannon, Vance, Thiel, Musk, Trump, Brexit, Heritage Foundation, the funding of far right populism to collapse our govts….?? After you’ve helped their collapse?
