I’ve no idea what point she’s trying to make. Not everyone can go to an Oxbridge college. Some of us plebs have to make do elsewhere.

To be fair, I’ve never written to any asking to be invited…

Does that mean, the fact I’ve never been invited to their debating society, that I’m banned as well?

I’ve never been invited to any debating societies; that’s an awful lot of bans in place for me. Gosh!

This series of articles by Peter Oborne is so spot on - withering about McSweeney - and his obsessive focus on party politics, scheming and tactics, at expense of policy conducive to the national interest - and in process ultimately ruining Starmer’s govt.

Knickers! #YNWA #LFC

Oh ye of little faith!

Oh boy! #YNWA #LFC

This is the man whose company Peter Mandelson's lobbying firm represents.

Keir Starmer visited its HQ last year, at the request of Mandelson, shortly before it was handed a £240m Government contract

Peter Thiel's New Model Army The Palantirisation of the UK military is a national security disaster

Pls read whole piece. Neither Mandelson or Mosley were asked about Mandelson’s role in fixing Starmer’s visit to Palantir & subsequent £240m deal. It finally made headlines on Weds when a q was asked in Parliament.

But honestly, BBC also has qs to answer

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’

“Many survivors are tired of fighting.”

Oooof. And of course they are. It’s by design.

There is now, at the very least, a competition between the "respectable" ex-Tories and the street populists - like Zia Yusuf and Matt Goodwin - over who will set the tone for Reform, and who are key to its outreach to the unashamed fascist plebs. The more its ethos evolves towards that of the shire Tories and ex-military types, the more it alienates the 100,000 drunk racists who followed Tommy Robinson into Whitehall last year.

“The truth is that Reform has no long-term answers for the structural, economic and geostrategic problems Britain faces. It has been, until now, held together by hate”

It cannot fix the problems we face because it’s a symptom of those problems, not a cure.

I wonder if any of the above think of leading the country as anything more than a ticket to speaking tours, book deals and any dodgy character prepared to pay to use their fame/infamy/notoriety. Oh! And, of course, a peerage to trade off.

How many times lately have we had to put up with a despised lame duck PM who only “runs” the country on borrowed time until their party organise themselves to get the next idiot lined up?

Johnson
Truss
Sunak
Now Starmer too

How is it any surprise that “even Tories” thought Mandelson was a good appointment?

There’s no difference between their supine “suck up to Trump at the expense of any moral red lines” policy & that of the government. #r4today

Yes, it should.

Read every word of that exchange.

There is no doubt of their intention.

Tony Benn had Mandelson sussed. Wise man!👍🏻

Left: When Craig Guildford, former Chief Constable of West Midlands police made a mistake and apologised, Keir Starmer and Shabana Mahmood wanted him out

Right: Keir Starmer made a mistake with Mandelson, why does he get to stay when he booted Guildford out?

Remind me again what government exists for?

Nigel Farage tells GB News that Keir Starmer's decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador shows his judgement is "seriously wrong" and he should stand down as Prime Minister.

Here's what Farage said when Mandelson was appointed

"I should just point out that this is the SIXTH time we have invited unelected gobshite Zia Yusuf onto Question Time"

I’m just fantasising about an actual left wing Labour party. That actually offers more than just aping Reform rhetoric.

Heads are going to explode 💥

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.

I like that. 😂

Photos of Farage and Epstein Nigel Farage is repeatedly mentioned within the Epstein files Do you hear that, coming from the right of British politics? An unfamiliar sound: silence.

Perhaps this is because Farage's political project has never truly been about protecting women. Women and girls function as a rhetorical device, wheeled out when useful, discarded when inconvenient. Their suffering is amplified when it can be folded into a narrative about immigration, race, or national decline, and minimised when it points upwards, towards men who look uncomfortably like political allies.

The Epstein files reveal it’s “not just about individual failure. It’s ideological fraud too.A politics that claims to defend women while refusing to confront the systems that enable abuse is not protection: it’s a strategy”

Farage, you’ve gone quiet but we see you
