What a shameful performance from a public official in a country where the rule of law used to be absolutely fundamental.

The Serious Fraud Office must seriously hone its skills & change radically to be effective in this Digital-AI world tackling all levels of fraud.

Nigel tells his supporters that our country is β€œbroken”! This is an insult to the amazing hard-working clever citizens of our country. We do indeed face many challenges many of them linked to no longer being in the EU!

The tiny cabal who plottted to appoint Mandelson as Ambassador to the USA should be identified as well as the other candidates considered at the time Why the secrecy over a public appointment?

Surely now is the time for our Labour Party leader Keir Starmer to launch a high level independent enquiry into the external links of Ministers,Shadow ministers, MPs & political advisers with an instruction to devise a new rigorously policed code of conduct!

Normally a UK Prime Minister tries to build a positive relationship with our King or Queen sadly today there appears to be a hostile attitude from somewhere in Keir Starmer’s team.

At any other time in the last 100 years this scandal would have triggered a political earthquake.

Let's ask the question: How many times do the following people show up being named in the Epstein Files:

President Joe Biden: 0
President Barack Obama: 0
MN Governor Tim Walz: 0

President Donald Trump: 4,500

Does any Republican not see the problem?

Is anyone at the BBC now ashamed of the interview conducted by Laura Kuensberg with Peter Mandelson in which there was no mention of Ghislaine Maxwell?

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Why has David Miliband been excluded in recent discussions? We need people of his calibre active at the senior level of our Labour Party!

Great speeches at Davos by the Canadian Prime Minister the French President & the President of Ukraine but why no one speaking from the UK on our vision for Europe?

Too many of the senior members of the Labour Government are London MPs or are really London based despite representing distant constituencies.Transport to constituencies has been made more arduous & even more dangerous by the actions of Parliamentary bureaucrats.Time for change?

The Labour Party was founded on a struggle to achieve Equality Liberty & Fraternity. Supporting the possibility of Andy Burnham’s return to Parliament would suggest Fraternity has an opportunity to flourish again in our Party.

In part as it seems wrong to enrol students on a course with compulsory work experience but failing to provide a placement plus rejecting placements secured by their students thus barring them from graduating.

Shocked to hear that the Office for Students has failed to assist or support students who enrol for a degree with compulsory work experience but fail to provide a placement leaving students in limbo. @OfS

I know young people who worked on medical negligence cases who soon quit their firms disillusioned by a life squeezing money from our NHS β€œI felt like a parasite” they said!
