BBC News - Mandelson's lawyers say he was arrested over 'baseless' claim he was a flight risk www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Shares in tiny violin manufacturers will be reaching record levels I'm sure.

Watching the TV coverage just now it seems Mandelson has lost his enthusiasm for telling journalists to fuck off...🤣

The Met have taken Mandelson in so they can introduce him to his new neighbour apparently...

The conspiracy of silence surrounding the royals (not just AMW) is unravelling. As AMW is hung out to dry don't buy into "the Firm's" bullshit defence that it's just one bad apple; there are embedded issues of greed, a lack of transparency & a misplaced sense of entitlement in the institution.

Laura Trott might do well to consider whether an Oxford degree in History & Economics is dead end judging by her failure to grasp some basic economic/statistical principles in that car crash interview a couple of years ago with Evan Davies when (unbelievably) she was Chief Secretary to the Treasury.

Boris who?! FFS why is the Beeb still giving the idiot air time?

Buckingham Palace has a long and ruthless tradition of distancing itself from scandal. Nothing matters to the Firm more than the perpetuation of the Firm itself. Be wary of stories that seek to put Charles and Co in a good light because a lot of it is nothing more than crisis and PR management.

Well if Mountbatten-Windsor treated his protection officers as disdainfully & badly as he treated other staff, his newly discovered ability to sweat will be in overdrive at the thought of some score settling on their part. Revenge is a dish best served cold & all that Andy.

I'm really looking forward to Karoline "Black is White" Leavitt's attempts to spin this one on behalf of the orange halfwit...🤣 #TrumpTariffs

Ladybird book in the spotlight. Lost at the Fair, 1948 Artist: A Macgregor

And the award for biggest hypocrites of the year goes to...

Arrested - but it appears to be for victimising the state, not yet for victimising young women. Full justice comes from full accountability, and this evidence must be released.

I suspect that this was more the sort of visit from the Police that AMW was hoping for on his birthday rather than the one he got... #AbolishTheMonarchy

BBC News - Legal challenge to Met's Freemasons policy thrown out www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... The Masons knew they were done when they got into court & spotted that neither of the judge's trouser legs were rolled up...

"We look after each other and we work hard." Hannah Spencer providing the antidote to Reform's hate and division in the BBC Gorton and Denton by-election debate 💪

Judging by Trump's face I reckon Truss has got her hand down the back of his trousers & is giving him a wedgie with his nappy & has told him she'll only stop when he boosts her neocon grifting by saying she's the most tremendous UK Prime Minister ever ...

Mandelson seen for first time since being asked to testify news.sky.com/video/share-... Not even bothering to tell journalists to fuck off anymore then? He knows he's done doesn't he? Never mind eh Mandy? 🤣

You can keep all your fancy nouvelle cuisine ideas - I'm still going to carry on making mine with potatoes.

Notice that Bondi doesn’t turn around.

Plans to invade Greenland have just been cancelled after this

😂

Morning Dave

Lines on the Sacking of Thomas Frank (After E.J. Thribb). So. Farewell then Thomas Frank. You once were The Great Dane, At Griffin Park, And latterly the Gtech Community Stadium. Alas though Thomas Not so great A Dane it seems, At what Once was White Hart Lane.

If Streeting is the answer the question must be "Can you think of a more useless, oily cunt to replace the current one?" #KeirStarmer

If you find yourself driving on I-95 near Philadelphia, look up! #epstein #billboard

That didn't take long. From being "deeply concerned" yesterday about the contents of the Epstein files relating to AM-W, today William reverts to the royal family's years' long policy of ignoring the issue hoping we'll overlook his & the other royals' complicity in faciltating AM-W's behaviour.

BBC News - British Museum to keep pendant linked to Henry VIII www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Great news that a beautiful artefact connected to such a pivotal period in English history & with a story that goes to the heart (excuse pun) of the events of the time will be able to be seen by the public.

We know Starmer has the support of his cabinet because he told them he does...

Hey Chas well done! I'm sure given some of your family and friends you could be an expert witness... #EpsteinFiles

After a 0-2 defeat at home to Man City in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi final recently with the away leg to come Newcastle's coach Eddie Howe said: "I don't think this should dent our confidence, it should enhance it." Maybe Starmer's made him his new chief of staff? 🤔🤣

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.

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026... Yeah, but how about all those years when you were complicit with the rest of the Royals in turning a blind eye to Uncle Andy's predatory behaviour? Where was your fucking concern then? #AbolishTheMonarchy

Apparently Starmer had told his new chief of staff to run & try to avoid the photographers as he left Number 10 after meeting him earlier today...

Like all those failed advisors (of all political hues) regularly trotted out by the media on their political talking shops, no doubt McSweeney will soon turn up on Politics Live & the like opining on why his former party is in such a mess having by then disowned his part in creating that mess.

Lovely pint of North Cotswold Brewery's Moreton Mild last night in the Plough in Worcester - a fab proper pub which always has a great selection of well kept beers and ciders available. I don't drink mild as often as I used to but it's great to have the option, especially when it's this good.

"Hi, Agent McSweeney who's speaking? Oh hi Nigel. A good job? Thank you very much, yes sir, I believe my work here is now done." #McSweeney

Mandelson's attempt to portray himself as a victim & to silence unfriendly voices is sickening. "Bad luck"?! The oleaginous grifter has ridden a wave of unbelievably good luck for over 40 years & can't accept that he isn't going to be able to smarm his way out of this one. Suck it up Mandy.

Ignominy too hopefully - they clearly aren't the innocent victims of their parents' behaviour that many of the royal simps, or royal correspondents as they prefer to call themselves, are trying to portray. #Epstein #AbolishtheMonarchy

BBC News - MPs are shocked and angry at Mandelson - and furious with Starmer - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... So Mandelson's behaviour has been met with a "genuine" sense of "disbelief" by former colleagues?! If "genuine" where the fuck have they been for the last 30 years or so then?!

We have a real chance to elect Hannah Spencer as the Green Party’s 5th MP. This by-election is clear: Green vs Reform. Graft vs grift. Hope vs division. Join Hannah and @zackpolanski.bsky.social in Gorton and Denton this Saturday and help us make hope normal again ⤵️

These guys at the side of the path swinging their arms at the #olympics opening ceremony remind me of the Summerisle inhabitants celebrating the burning of Edward Woodward in the final scene of the Wicker Man...

To all those Starmerites & other Labour centrists who'd pile on me when I used to post this pic on Twitter a few years back highlighting Mandelson's links with Epstein & who berated me with stuff like "Nothing to see here" & "You're being childish" etc...where are you now you cunts? ⬇️

By the time Starmer is replaced this summer, we'll have had two wasted years, in which a country crying out for transformation instead got more of the same, or even worse where environmental legislation is concerned, and a high possibility of Farage running the next government. Thanks Keir.

Wes Streeting. Also Wes Streeting ⬇️ ⬇️

Yesterday I was in a room packed full of MPs imploring govt to rethink its proposed changes to ILR rules for migrants Govt is planning to make unfair retrospective changes that are racist & classist These would devastate the lives of many who have made this country their home

The Lords is a massive problem. How can a supposedly advanced country still be maintaing a veritably feudal upper house where you can't get rid of members. It's absolutely insane.

Well Mandy as you're evidently such a fan of cheesey sexual innuendo I'm sure you'll be delighted to potentially be going down...although not on a well hung young man I'm afraid. 🤣 #Mandeleon
