This will completely screw traffic movement in the area for over a year. And if there is the slightest issue on the M1 or M25 the whole of Hertfordshire will grind to a halt.

The person who wins the Labour leadership has to come from the group that have no WhatsApp messages with Mandelson.

So having used a load of political capital to get the cabinet to say how wonderful he is the advice is to reshuffle it and get rid of half of them. Sound.

Every cabinet minister having to tweet an oath of loyalty. Why not go the whole hog, put up a Twitter poll ad be done with it?

Seems to me that the combined commentariat have decided Starmer must stay because β€œthere’s no obvious candidate”.

I think this translates to β€œall the possible candidates I have good contact with are currently compromised and we need to wait a bit so people can forget that about my favourite”.

Lots of people, journalists and public alike, making the same 2 mistakes over the Mandelson issue.

They call it a political problem for Starmer to solve and believe the issue is the degree of contact with Epstein.

In reality it’s a question of morality and values and is quite binary in nature.

So they’re chucking out the glorious Parallel Giant Slalom from the Olympics in favour of things like this stupid β€œBig Air” nonsense.

Dominik Szoboszlai is the best player in the league by a country mile.

Morgan McSweeney quits as PM's chief of staff following Mandelson scandal

A week ago this might have protected Starmer. Now it looks like a last ditch effort to protect Starmer. So probably won’t.

Perhaps this will become known as the β€œAccidental Parliament”.

We seem to be in the odd situation where the MPs don’t like the elected leader, the elected MPs don’t like the platform they were elected on and the electorate don’t like the MPs they’ve elected.

Not sure how this resolves itself.

Love that the parallel slalom has a big final and a small final.

Downhill racing is like few other sports in terms of the danger it presents to the competitors. Every time racers race they run the risk of a career ending, life changing injury.

The drone views on this downhill event are extraordinary. Really captures the speed.

To be fair to Vonn that run is dangerous for anyone skiing down it, and I’m sure that none of the racers have both legs in 100% tip-top condition. Also, she’s Lindsey Vonn, for many years she was the sport. Who’s going to argue with her?

β€˜I’m British, English and British Asian’, says Rishi Sunak in riposte to racially charged debate over identity Podcaster claimed former prime minister not English because he is β€˜brown-skinned Hindu’

Generally I don’t like the politics of Sunak and Javid but they deserve some praise for standing up against the racists on the right when their own party won’t. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

So much for not publishing the documents to avoid prejudicing the police investigation.

Trump says he 'didn't see' part of video with racist clip depicting Obamas as apes The US president says he

He posted it.
He defended it.
He gaslit those who complained about it.
He left it up.
He didn’t apologise when he had to talk it down.

So, yes, he’s a racist.

Have you tried throwing it out of the window and getting a new one? Usually works for me.

Mandelson lied.

Simple question.

Who was responsible for believing his lies?

Journalists still doing that dumb thing where they ignore the answer to the previous journalists question and plough on with their (largely similar) question.

There’s clearly no reason for this other than to protect politicians and their advisors.
