Find my response to Boris with the guy in the Tory party and you’ll find a very similar approachNo he gave an answer that gave him a get out - there should be no get out. Mandleson has always been associated with sleaze and corruption- he’s known to have defended Epstein when he raped a 14 year old girl - if this was a Tory prime minister the reaction would be very different
You’re just trying to start an argument out of nothing on this one.No he gave an answer that gave him a get out - there should be no get out. Mandleson has always been associated with sleaze and corruption- he’s known to have defended Epstein when he raped a 14 year old girl - if this was a Tory prime minister the reaction would be very different
if this was Boris Johnson you’d be demanding his head
There's a lot to choose from but Starmer bringing him back must rank as one of his worst decisions.
It seems quite obvious that Mandelson was bought in specifically because of his ability to cosy up to Trump (who yesterday said what’s happening to Mandelson was “too bad”)
It's possibly Mcsweeney who's the issue here along with the,pM.Possibly but it seems odd, given some of Mandelson's previous comments about Trump (calling him "a bully" and "a danger to the world") from which he had to do some hasty, slimy backtracking when he was appointed. Was Starmer not aware of these? If not, someone near him such as Morgan McSweeney should have advised him.

I didn’t know Mandelson was so well connected in French politics tooThere would have been a connection with Trump somewhere. Mandleson used to work directly for Robert Maxwell - then became entwined with Ghislaine and then Epstein.
Same everywhere. They're focused on polices that have no positive impact locally.Birmingham council 'no longer bankrupt' as proposed budget includes extra £130m | TheBusinessDesk.com
The council has been embroiled in a year-long labour dispute with Unite over fair pay for bin collection workerswww.thebusinessdesk.com
Praise the lord. It was never bust to start with. Totally mismanaged by the council (Labour), managed to miscalculate a huge amount of liabilities, built a 500m surplus in employees DB pension scheme, bumped council tax up by 20% over two years and has significantly reduced services for all residents. All whilst Birmingham became stab capital of the country
Most are asking who the fuck is the is council serving these days….its not the residents
Pretty dramatic day in parliament today and I’m surprised it’s not being discussed.
Starmers attempt to block details of the vetting process for the child rapist sympathiser Mandleson has been overturned. He’s finished
Boris went for repeatedly lying about that and other things like pincher by name pincher by nature, including lying in parliament. That’s not spoken incorrectly due to a lack of knowledge, he repeatedly, knowingly and very deliberately lied in parliament to try and save his own arse.Starmer appointed him knowing he was continuing a friendship with a convicted sex trafficker.
The guy has to go, Boris went for a glass of champagne and pizza.
You do the math.
Fancy having to pay for your actionsIt seems quite obvious that Mandelson was bought in specifically because of his ability to cosy up to Trump (who yesterday said what’s happening to Mandelson was “too bad”)
gotta trust the capitals

Quite a farce that the country's prime minister again seems to be the passenger in some no mates weirdo (Cummings and McSweeney) mission. Says a lot for the Westminster circus of media and politicians.It's possibly Mcsweeney who's the issue here along with the,pM.

Potholes are bad everywhere, gradual addition of charge for green waste, but they've got a net zero a diversity policy in place and masses of road closures to build cycle lanes hardly anyone uses.
Starmer’s days are very much numbered now. He’ll be gone within 2 weeks, IMO.I would just like to remind everyone that Starmer hired someone caught up in a scandal, and he owns that decision. It deserves criticism, and it reflects poorly on his judgement.
But Boris Johnson’s government gave unlawful advice to the Queen to prorogue Parliament, he barreled the country through a Brexit settlement sold on fantasies, he was fined over Partygate and was later found by MPs to have deliberately misled Parliament about it, he presided over sleaze and cronyism, from the Owen Paterson affair onwards, and he still clung on until the sheer accumulation of misconduct finally made his position untenable.
So while the usual voices and faces scream loudly that Starmer must resign, and to be clear I don’t think he comes out of this unscathed, it’s hard to take the outrage seriously when many of them defended Johnson, excused him, or pretended none of it mattered at the time.
If they waved through constitutional vandalism and years of rule-breaking, this sudden moral panic reads squarely as opportunism, and Starmer should answer for poor political nous without letting the loudest hypocrites set the terms of the debate.
