Prospective candidate for the Green Party for St Clements Division of Suffolk County Council in May 2025 elections
All this talk about what did Starmer know about Mandelson before he appointed him US ambassador is a bit weird. Talking to ex Labour members we were aware in the Blair years that Mandelson was a creepy man always in the shadows and willing to do anything to preserve the Blair Project. Never changed

Mandelson had resigned again. Wonder what job he will resign from next time.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Ok- it’s Sunday relax- put phone to one side- try to make sense of a nonsensical World. Hopefully The Observer UK. Byline Times and Private Eye will do the job after a sip of tea.

This is disgusting. We have lost our humanity. Facism exists in the USA
Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

So the Labour Government has agreed with the Labour Ipswich Borough Council and Conservative Suffolk County Council to deprive you of your democratic right to have you say in Locsl elections this May 2026.
You know what you need to do.

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.
