As a country, we should be determined to get justice for the victims of Epstein, even if that means further damaging the Royal Family and other institutions. Time to do a Poland and open up a full investigation.

It is #Farage (who IS mentioned in the #EpsteinFiles) we should all be calling out, not #Starmer (who is NOT mentioned in the #EpsteinFiles).
"I might disagree with Mandelson on his politics, but he's a very intelligent man and would be good choice for ambassador".
Nigel Farage, Dec 2024

Nigel Farage condemns Sir Keir Starmer calling his appointment of Lord Mandelson as US ambassador a "grave error of judgement".

It turns out you can't run a council on anti-wokeness alone.

Perhaps DT realised that councils need money to function - though many in Reform cling to a delusion that they can maintain services & reduce council tax (while quietly increasing it).

Don't let these idiots into real political power.

While there is justified outrage about Mandelson, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor &others, the relentless media focus on Keir Starmer (who was NOT mentioned in any Epstein file) is overdone.
By contrast, no focus on Farage who WAS mentioned (and who, BTW, applauded the appointment of Mandelson)…

In 2021, the Express reported that the Tory Govt's Hawk replacement decision was due by year end.

Tory dither and delay means the decision wasn't made and was left to Labour to sort out.

The 2026 article misses out that - but does quote the Tory shadow minister blaming Labour for the delay...🤔

The conservatives this morning said nothing about Epstein’s victims, Andrew or any of the many wealthy people implicated just went on and on about Starmer is untenable and should resign. No contrition over their ex PM links, no mention of Farage being mentioned just a diatribe of misinformation.

It’s quite cool how the Netherlands is about to get a gay prime minister and basically no one here cares at all

As the USA looks more like Russia daily it comes as no surprise that Trump and his billionaire backers are planning financial loans and investments in Russia making ending Russia’s war against Ukraine not their priority as they can make more profits from a weaker Russia.

Sunday paper headlines show they realise the Mandelson failures will not oust Starmer.

I think our voices have brought to light the enormous support of the public for our Prime Minister.

We did good.

Well done everyone.

History repeating itself?

UKIP under Nigel Farage controlled Thanet Council and nearly bankrupt it.

Reform UK under Nigel Farage controls Worcestershire Council and it’s on the verge of bankruptcy.

Never trust Reform UK. Imagine a country run by them. We'd be bankrupt with Trussite policies.

Three-time Trump voter: I'm looking at this awful picture of the Obamas. What an embarrassment to our country. He is not worthy of the presidency. He takes bribes blatantly, and now he's being a racist blatantly. He's pathetic as a president, and I want to apologize for supporting this rotten man.

Yep. And Polanski will happily help Farage into power.

Despite not being brave enough to stand for election himself. A far left grifter who sells cheap populism and empty slogans.

The only thing Trump is a world leader in is the number of times he is in the Epstein files. Even in the only thing he has ever actually achieved himself he is a total embarrassment on the world stage.

So far Starmer is the only person I have heard apologising to the victims. Or even mentioning them. Not the press. Not the leader of the opposition (a woman), no one in the other parties. All too busy making it all about them. Well shame on them.
Pity the media in U.K. ( Mason, LK, Rigby , Channel 4 .. Guardian etc ) , the opposition parties and the FEW Labour MPs making their own naked ambition to remove Starmer so clear , aren’t as reasoned and straightforward! She shames them all !!

Just a word of thanks to our fantastic media. Despite my racist bullying at school, having a senior colleague imprisoned for being a traitor, breaking the MP’s Code Of Conduct 17 times, my dodgy house purchase and even being in the Epstein Files, nobody is demanding I resign!

Goodwin offers Gorton and Denton only failure, hatred, racism and division.

Prejudice as policy does not work. Even if, fleetingly, it makes you feel an ugly kind of special.
It’s a loser’s charter and Goodwin is such a loser.
