That £240m contract Palantir won after Peter Mandelson took Keir Starmer to visit them? Government asserts "there were robust processes in place to ensure that government contracts are awarded fairly and transparently" but the award notice says it was a "directed award", ie without any competition.

Starmer - and his supporters - are in this up to their necks. The whole lot needs kicking out.

Just in passing, did anyone request Farage’s resignation when he appointed a British traitor Nathan Gill to be his Welsh leader given the past & still ongoing swirling rumours of Russian connections to Reform U.K. ? Anyone? 🤔

Labour's changes to immigration rules, including potentially applying them retroactively, would be some of the most draconian anti-immigration policies in decades. They're the hostile environment on speed.
This is pure cruelty as policy, with absolutely no merit to them

Peter Mandelson should not be an unelected parliamentarian for life. And neither should any of the other 800+ peers eligible to sit in the House of Lords. It should be abolished & replaced with a (small) elected second chamber.

'the UK creative industries — which contributed £125 billion to the economy in 2024 and supported 2.4 million jobs — are being destroyed by an AI sector that... contributed just £11 billion in the same year and supported only 85,000 jobs." www.thetimes.com/culture/film...
All 2.4m of Britain’s creative workers are at risk — and we know why

Apart from the basic lack of decency (British values, eh), Reform’s approach will absolutely tank the economy.
It’s “Trump 2.0” in terms of race, but also “Austerity 2.0”, and if people think their coastal towns and high streets are going to be rejuvenated under that model, they’re beyond help.

If newspapers knowingly print lies about anything, be it people, political parties, government decisions, climate change, or anything else of importance. They should be fined heavily and made to print a retraction on their front page, alongside an apology. And perhaps have the editor prosecuted.

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services.
Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt.
While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant per person of £10tn.
That's how privatisation 'works'.
