Kemi Badenoch is trying to argue the appointment of Mandelson as US ambassador harmed international relations between the US and UK, in the light of his Epstein connections.

Which…given the US President was Epstein's "best friend" for a decade or more, feels like a swing and a miss.

If Mandelson is being investigated for his Epstein connections, he must also be investigated for his Thiel connections, because they ran a joint fund when Mandelson fixed Starmer's visit to Palantir

Ed Davey, "Polish gov believes Epstein may have been spying for Putin"

"Is the PM concerned that Peter Mandelson may have been leaking state secrets not just to pedophile American financier"

"But also a Russian agent"

Keir Starmer doesn't answer this questions

Morgan McSweeney needs to go and Starmer should be the one to send him packing.
Some interesting reporting in the New Statesman. There was a shortlist of four to be UK Ambassador to the US. Starmer favoured George Osborne. It was Morgan McSweeney who pushed for Mandelson.

Exactly! Jury based trials are part of our democracy and provide a critical check on government and state power, needed more than ever in these democracy eroding times.
Pleased to see the jury make this decision.

We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.

People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

This email between Epstein and JD Vance’s tech oligarch benefactor Peter Thiel where they plan to “collapse” society to create investment opportunities for themselves seems… not great

(They also met with the UN ambassador to Russia together)

A special election in a reliably pro-Trump Texan district, where the majority of voters are Republican, Trump personally endorsed the MAGA candidate, and the GOP outspent Dems by 7-to-1.

Democrats won with a 31% swing.

The mid-terms are going to be a wipeout.

ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families.

Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota.

The cruelty is endless.

The Lords is a massive problem. How can a supposedly advanced country still be maintaing a veritably feudal upper house where you can't get rid of members.

It's absolutely insane.
The government has:
1. Referred Mandelson to the police for investigation over leaking sensitive information while in government
2. Decided it *will* try to strip Mandelson of his peerage after all.

That’s both throwing him under the bus and then reversing to make sure in one fell swoop.

The thing is, you didn't have to be Nostradamus to see it. You just had to be independent of the ultra-rich. Unfortunately, the great majority of the media is in the plutocrats' pockets. So the people pointing it out are shunned. In 2009 I tried and tried to get the BBC to pick this up. But ...⛔🤐
1. In 2009 I wrote this. I argued that Peter Mandelson's department “functions as a fifth column within government, working for corporations to undermine democracy and the public interest.”
This thread explains what I saw, and reaches a startling conclusion.🧵

10. Mandelson's betrayal was institutional. It was not a bug but a feature of the New Labour government. And it has been a feature of every government since.

Only in the UK can we have documentary evidence of documents being leaked, no denial of the leak, but journalists still have to put "alleged" in the headline.

I bet it’s what he said to all his underage girls he abused on Epstein island. Thinking he’ll get away with it.
I'm not sure this gets said enough but, the President of the USA appears to be severely mentally ill and unfit for office.
