Three years ago we made an early News Agents on the student loan scandal and the sky high marginal tax rates it creates. Three years on, govts since have made it all worse still. We’ve made a special follow up, centred on our listeners own experiences.

Lots of things are beginning to make sense now. Given Mandelson’s role in the People’s Vote, and his proximity to Epstein and his MAGA/Russian ties, no wonder they dismissed @carolecadwalla.bsky.social on Cambridge Analytica/Vote Leave and our joint investigation into Russian interference

It's like Mandelson and Starmer watched and learned from the Tory VIP Lane:
💷 Privileged access ✅
💷 Personal benefit ✅
💷 No competition ✅
Mandelson benefitted financially through his stake in Global Counsel.

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.

Both stories about Reform UK Party Ltd’s Gorton & Denton campaign are true — they, laughably, reported Labour to the police over a ‘misleading’ video, and now they face a police investigation over breaking by-election law with deliberately misleading campaign material.

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.

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...

This is overt racism. Full stop. There’s no ‘misinterpretation’ and no excuse. This is who he is, who he’s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And there’s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.

Because that £240 million contract gifted to Palantir, with no competition…
…after Starmer had an off-the-books meeting with Mandelson and Palantir…
…while Mandelson was officially LOBBYING FOR Palantir and so personally financially benefiting from such links and contracts…

Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government.
Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’
I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.
