They lie, they know they are lying and they know we know they are lying, and still they lie.

Utterly laughable on @bbclaurak.bsky.social if there’s a leadership change at @teamlabouruk.bsky.social there needs to be a general election

Where the fuck was that argument when the Tories changed them weekly

Martin Rowson on Peter Mandelson and the Labour party – cartoon Keir Starmer’s position as prime minister has been undermined by the latest revelations from the Epstein files

Peter Mandelson was one of the triumvirate who brought the wretched neoliberal centrist New Labour lot into power along with Tony Blair and Gordon Brown.

Post-Brexit sales of British farm products to EU fall by 37% NFU warn it could take years to restore Brexit losses despite efforts to smooth negotiations on farming and other elements of UK-EU reset

“It could take years to restore Brexit losses”

Especially if Farage comes along and tears up the ‘reset’ as he threatens.

Honest to god.. it’s such a tedious, idiotic, resource-sapping mess. There’s really nothing patriotic about it. Prejudice costs such a lot.

Ossoff: "You're seeing what I'm seeing, right? The president posting about the Obamas like a Klansman."

In California:

Keir Starmer made a speech about Epstein survivors saying how unacceptable it was that they faced barriers to justice.

BUT HIS OWN GOVT has blocked justice for hundreds of Harrods abuse & trafficking survivors.

Complete hypocrisy 😡

Write to your MP.

Or just reinforce the fact that you're a racist paedophile.

Well, from the byline, Katy Balls.

Nigel Farage’s Epstein Hypocrisy The Reform leader's own connections to the Jeffrey Epstein story are far deeper than he now pretends

Farage - a total hypocrite on the Mandelson appointment. And, besides, the Epstein files expose him too.
A grubby apologist to Trump. A useful idiot to Bannon. And a traitor to the UK.

Virginia State Senator Louise Lucas is just a delight on every level

Times report: Allies of Rayner said they believed that Wes Streeting, the health secretary, would be “ruined” by the mass disclosure of all communications with Mandelson in coming months. Streeting and Mandelson were close allies for years.

In these dark days of February, a little something to look forward to.

‘A stain on our history’: outrage after Trump shares racist video about Obamas as White House attempts to brush off the post – live Former Obama adviser Ben Rhodes slams Trump for posting racist video on Truth Social; Karoline Leavitt says criticism is ‘fake outrage’

Bang on the money:

“Let it haunt Trump and his racist followers that future Americans will embrace the Obamas as beloved figures while studying him as a stain on our history.”

Trump is determined to be remembered as a 'great man'.
His curse is that he won't be.

Signed. A drugs deal mainly negotiated by Mandelson. 😏

This is good from Gordon Brown - now these measures need to be put in place as a matter of urgency.
It shouldn't have needed Mandelson as a catalyst. There have been plenty of others over the years. 👇

Hillary was right about everything….

GOP: "Clintons MUST testify about Epstein."

Clintons: "Fine. Let's do it in public."

GOP: "No. It will be in secret but files and video will be made public."

Erm... Then do it in public then! 🤷‍♀️🤔🙄🤦‍♀️
