On Brexit, are there “glimmers of hope that the UK may be preparing to turn the page of this costly national psychodrama” asks Martin Leng: big-europe.eu/publications...

I’m thinking of another wronged woman today. Sue Gray. Downing St began to fall apart after an experienced dedicated civil servant was ousted for Morgan McSweeney. She opposed Mandelson’s appointment.

After being really down this week and losing faith in the UK public entirely (I know many of you saw that post!) the post below shows how much you've done to restore my faith. So many of you joining Labour or emailing MPs and No10 to show support! Brilliant work everyone!

The UK has been supporting more than 1 million Ukrainians affected by the energy crisis this winter through vital humanitarian support. Working closely with UNICEF and Ukrainian energy and water suppliers, the UK has helped provide generators, pipes & cables to restore the crucial supply of water.r

Mandleson will be the catalyst to bring in changes that will clean up our politics. And Gordon Brown and Keir Starmer are exactly the duo to pull it off. Every cloud has a silver lining. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

“Reform UK will face a police investigation in Gorton and Denton after admitting it sent out [FAKE MADE UP] letters from a “concerned neighbour” which did not state they had been funded and distributed by the party”. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

“It’s people helping each other, helping their community, celebrating multiculturalism and sport and cheering on our key workers and I see it every single day in my constituency. “That, to me, is what the British spirit is about. And that’s why I’m proud to be British”

Trump is a vile racist bully We should all condemn this without hesitation. But something tells me Farage will find a way to make excuses for his best mate Trump. I hope I’m wrong.

Trump is a vile racist bully. His actions should be condemned without hesitation.

Just like Trump, Farage says there are extremists on both sides when challenged about racism. Don’t let Nigel Farage turn Britain into his version of Trump's America.

Leaflet wars just stepped up a gear: Mill reveal Reform UK have broken electoral law manchestermill.co.uk/exclusive-re...

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.

By a country mile Starmer will never 'achieve' the same level of lying & law breaking that occurred on a weekly basis with Johnson. I will never forget, even if most commentators conveniently have...

So he has changed his mind again. Where does that leave Kemi Badenoch's assertion that "Donald Trump 'is right on the Chagos deal'"? And a lesson for everyone, perhaps, not to fixate on Trump's caprices. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

#Epstein was co-owner of a Silicon Valley venture fund controlled by Peter Thiel, billionaire founder of defence analytics giant Palantir Technologies, which holds more than £670 million in UK Government contracts. Palantir has tentacles that reach deep into the British state and institutions.

Peter Mandelson, Palantir & government cosying up to tech billionaires: NHS contract is key, but many more questions to ask, I said in #HouseofLords. Response: "If there is anything in these papers at all to indicate that further investigation to get to the truth is needed, that will be taken."

New York’s pension funds are questioning Palantir, a software company, over its business dealings with ICE and DHS.

Dear media, you've had fun working yourselves up into a minor frenzy about Starmer and Mandelson but time to move on. Even GB News viewers when asked if Starmer should resign voted 92% no. There is a UK politician who is mentioned over 40 times in the Epstein files, concentrate on him now eh.

"It also links Farage to one of the most controversial figures in modern American politics" If we want to start highlighting dodgy links and shady practices, lets start with Farage and Manafort. Our MSM stays silent as usual when Farage is involved. bylinetimes.com/2026/01/15/n...

Look how easily, under Mandelsonian guidance, the likes of Palantir is paid to run deep into our defence and NHS systems. This affair should have jolted out of complacency all those responsible for these contracts.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

“when Starmer visited Washington in Feb 2025, one of his first stops..was…American surveillance tech company, Palantir..the visit had been personally arranged by Mandelson, whose own firm then represented the company, owned by Trump-supporting billionaire Peter Thiel” bylinetimes.com/2026/02/05/p...

“the Ministry of Defence quietly announced that it had awarded a £240m contract to the US tech company Palantir, for the provision of ‘data analytics capabilities’…This contract …was directly awarded to Palantir – that is, without competitive tender.” sussexbylines.co.uk/politics/dem...

To be fair, Welsh government has refused to use Palantir. If Reform was to win in May, expect that to end. Another reason to hope Plaid Cymru wins.

I just signed a petition calling for an urgent investigation into Peter Mandelson's dealings with Palantir. Did he use his position as UK Ambassador to benefit the US spy tech firm? Sign now: www.foxglove.org.uk/campaigns/ma...

A bit awks for the right wing extremist faketriots and their cries of 'surrender deal', etc. Trump's dumped on them!

“Martin Wrigley MP, a Liberal Democrat member of the Commons technology select committee, called for a parliamentary debate on “the suitability of Palantir” as a supplier to critical national infrastructure” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Starmer proved right again.

Not to mention Nigel Farage: www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

The mainstream media — an integral part of the ‘fifth column’ — chooses what people talk about, and what they get angry about. It is in its interests to beat down Labour and promote Farage, because he is one of them.

Starmer’s speech today was very good. He started off with providing further context and and an apology for his appointment of Mandelson. He then outlined his principles alongside Labour’s £5bn Pride in Place community initiative, with an £800m expansion.

As Starmer said at PMQs, Trump withdrew his support for the Chagos Islands deal to apply pressure on him over Greenland. It didn’t work. Starmer didn’t bow. Trump has now changed his mind again and supports the deal, in spite of what Farage thinks.

READ AND SHARE.VERY IMPORTANT INFO🔥 “Brexit is just the beginning” See how Epstein, Putin, Thiel, Bannon and Farage et al acted together to try to ruin democracy in UK, Europe and USA using dark money in Crypto bitcoin to bribe and Epstein to blackmail people in power

“Britain’s Labour MPs are talking furtively about ousting their leader. There’s just one hurdle: they need to work out how.” No They first need to work out who would do a better job and none of the names bandied around are up to the job. Starmer needs new advisors. www.politico.eu/article/how-...

Is Glasman leaking this to throw Starmer under the bus? Might be assuming he'll get Streeting instead; I wouldn't take that for granted if I were him...

Not only was the fascist tapeworm praising Mandelson’s appointment he was offering to help him too 👇

What other Prime Minister in our history would do this? Own the mistake and apologise wholeheartedly to the nation. Such a stark contrast to what we have seen before in terms of cover ups, deflection, lies and trivialising important matters by saying “move on”. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cz...

With Rob there. It would be a good start.

Paging @iaindale.bsky.social x

McSweeney needs to go. Glasman, too, shd lose Labour Peerage: he's Bannon's henchman; Farage introduced them to each other. Bannon v heavily involved in political Epstein stuff.

LOL. GB News folk can't believe their own poll.

So @lewisgoodall.com just made this point on LBC...

The Epstein Files & Nigel Nigel Farage appears 36 times Nick Candy, Reform UK treasurer is throughout it, and appears to have been a close friend of Epstein & Maxwell Steve Bannon, Farage advisor was incredibly close to Epstein and is throughout.

Ever wonder why the media, especially the right wing are constantly desperate to get rid of Starmer? It’s simple, they want a General Election so they can get their beloved Farage & Reform in power. We must not let that happen & we must continue to fight them every step of the way.

Peter Thiel. #Palantir 👇 #Epsteinfiles

Yes, quite. It's the biggest scandal of this administration, so far, probably. It's an average Tuesday under Johnson.
