New on FT website:

Downing Street has refused to say whether Sir Keir Starmer knew Palantir was a client of Peter Mandelson’s lobbying firm when they both visited the company in Washington last February — ahead of it winning a £240mn UK government contract.

In Epstein’s corrupt patriarchy the men network and exchange favours; women exist to be sexually abused, to serve the men, and to be ignored.

This is exactly spot on. Labour have alienated their own natural supporters which is plain stupid.
Why is every scandal existential for Starmer? Because he has actively worked to eradicate his own support base. And that, along with the Mandelson decision, can be laid at McSweeney's door iandunt.substack.com/p/starmers-m...

Putin > Bannon > Epstein > Mandelson > McSweeney > Starmer.

The 'don't reignite Brexit' thing is madness. The UK is suffering badly from Brexit. UK citizens have been stripped of rights without a voice or a vote.

Silence on Brexit prolongs the damage, which is exactly what the far right want.

“Everything else had just been for show.

The Lib Dem leader also observed that the Poles believed Epstein had been working for Vladimir Putin. In which case, so had Mandelson …

Starmer didn’t dare go anywhere near that.”

Kudos to Andrew Marr for pointing out the elephant in the room. There's now a heap of evidence that Epstein was working hand in glove with Putin's regime. And with the Putin-aligned far right in Europe & the UK.

He was a lynchpin in this global network of fascist kleptocracy.

Yes. Every American should. Because over 70 million have chosen to vote for Trump 3 times and the last two times cannot reasonably have a doubt about his bad character and malign intent.

And so should every U.K. citizen that is even thinking of voting for Farage - the 🇬🇧 Trump.
Every American needs to watch this:

Nigel Farage tells GB News that Keir Starmer's decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador shows his judgement is "seriously wrong" and he should stand down as Prime Minister.

Here's what Farage said when Mandelson was appointed
February 5, 2026 at 3:50 PM
Epstein is dead but the structures that he was instrumental in setting up survive: a hostile foreign intelligence operation directed at the West, which now includes the tech bros and oligarchs.

Putin is its main beneficiary.

This has gone on for far too long. We must cut off the hydra’s head now.
Quacking Treason

Public profiles of Jeffrey Epstein going back 20+ years present a near perfect description of a massive, hostile foreign intelligence operation directed at the USA and NATO and other allies.

Why was this so widely ignored? What was Mandelson’s involvement? What next?

A 🧵 /1.

In 1972, Idi Amin expelled 50–80k Asians from Uganda. With them gone, Uganda went from a relatively prosperous economy to one where businesses collapsed, trade froze, and the economy tanked—and it still hasn’t recovered to this day.

Farage would do the same to us.

McSweeney owed his position as Starmer’s chief of staff to Mandelson, and as his protégé pushed for Mandelson’s appointment.

So for McSweeney to be involved in Mandelson’s vetting was an abuse of process.

McSweeney just reported Mandelson’s lies to Starmer.

Clearly, there was no proper vetting
“As part of the vetting process for Mandelson’s appointment, Sir Keir asked Mandelson to address three specific questions, which were sent to him via email by the PM’s chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney.”

Why was Mandelson plant McSweeney part of the vetting process?

Elon Musk was itching to go to Epstein’s parties, and excited about all the ‘girls’ that would be there, *five years* after Epstein pleaded guilty to *procuring a child for prostitution*. What on earth did he think went on at these parties?

If you leave your inherent political biases at the door, this was an absolutely catastrophic PMQs for Starmer.

The final bullet he pumped into his own foot came when he mounted a full-throated defence of Morgan McSweeney.

That risks coming back to bite him like a rabid dog.
Kemi Badenoch criticses Morgan McSweeny for pushing peter Mandelson as Ambassador, and asks if Starmer still has confidence in him

Keir Starmer, "Morgan McSweeney is a central part of my team, he helped me change the Labour party and win an election"

Dear All The Politicians,

Former adviser here. You've never heard of me.

As soon as the adviser becomes even vaguely mentioned in the story, they've fucked it and need removing.

The very fact that this needs saying is absolutely fucking unbelievable but...

Remove Morgan McSweeney NOW.

"The Polish government think Epstein may have been spying for Vladimir Putin, is the PM concerned that Mandelson may have been leaking state secrets, not just to a paedophile, financier, but also a Russian agent?" asks Ed Davey.
