Badenoch nominating Toby Young last year, for a life peerage with new evidence on his Maxwell/ Epstein links doesn’t seem to be attracting significant scrutiny… especially by Badenoch or any of those horrified by Starmers judgement. Or has that connection been found to be false ?

The billionaires' eugenics project: how Epstein infiltrated Harvard, muzzled the humanities and preached master-race science Edge - Jeffrey Epstein's favourite intellectual salon - was sold to me as a gathering of the world's finest minds, writes Virginia Heffernan. The files reveal it was something far darker: a decades-lo...

NEW: Read this terrific piece @virginiaheffernan.bsky.social for @thenerve.news in which she unpicks Edge.org, the hugely influential 'salon' funded by Epstein & threaded through with race science & eugenics.

Boris Johnson and Alexander Lebedev Must Be Investigated in a New Public Inquiry into Russian Influence If you think the Gill conviction is bad, linking the Reform UK Party leader's closest aide to the Kremlin, wait till you hear about another Leave campaigner and his connections to Putin's inner circle

When will he be investigated? “Johnson was a regular guest at the Lebedevs’ West London home and at Palazzo Terranova, the family’s Umbrian villa near Perugia. As foreign secretary and later prime minister, he continued to attend their famously hedonistic parties.” bylinetimes.com/2025/12/02/b...

Tom Harper again. 12 years ago, as a journalist, he ran baseless stories to mitigate Murdoch’s phone hacking by twisting a police report that ‘blue chip’ companies were also hacking (when they were victims of it). Now this…

Regardless of the outcome on #AssistedDying we need good quality #palliativecare in the UK. It affects many more people than the AD bill ever will. @mariecurieuk.bsky.social new research is sobering and a call to action 👇

Melt the ICE Hat pattern by Paul S Neary In the 1940’s, Norwegians made and wore red pointed hats with a tassel as a form of visual protest against Nazi occupation of their country. Within two years, the Nazis made these protest hats illegal...

Time for some new #knitting. Just downloaded this pattern for a Norwegian Resistance Hat, originally protesting against the Nazis in WW2, now repurposed as a 'Melt the ICE' statement. But please someone, tell me a good rebellious wool to get. I am tricoteuse. TY 🧶

Purple graphic with text reading, "Childhood is for dreams, not blood cancer diagnoses. International Childhood Cancer Day." Illustrations of a cupcake, heart, lightbulb, and a bicycle swirl above.

Every year, more than 500 children in the UK are diagnosed with blood cancer.

On #InternationalChildhoodCancerDay & every day, we're working to fund more life-saving research, more breakthroughs, and more childhoods free from blood cancer. We're thinking of everyone affected ❤️

Despite the strenuous efforts of Mason, Kuenssberg, Coates and Rigby Keir Starmer has had a good week.
The "fighting to save his political career" schtick has been shown to be nonsense.
It won't stop the four wazzocks trying again, though.

Don't you hate it when fighting age men flee their own country, leaving their families behind, then expect other people to give them a handout.

I assume we will be seeing significant action over this, Give retiring from the Lords, the entire media talking about it non-stop for weeks?

When’s Nigel Farage going to comment on his friends and the Epstein Files?

Hillary Clinton:

"The Trump administration's position towards Ukraine is disgraceful... The effort that Putin and Trump are making to profit off the misery and death of the Ukrainian people is a historic error and corrupt to the nth degree... He has betrayed the West. He has betrayed human values."

If you discovered that a British politician took money from the Russian government or any part of the Kremlin’s vast propaganda machine, would that politician ever be fit to hold any public office in the UK? (Just wondering…)

The police should be knocking on *the former prince* Andrew’s door.

100% agree

Good meeting with Keir Starmer in Munich.

Europe and the UK share similar challenges.

it is natural that we work closer to protect our people and common interests.

We had a successful summit last year - let's keep the momentum and deliver at the next one.
