It’s a longer video… but we REALLY need to talk about:
Peter Mandelson and -
Global Council
Lobbying (as an adviser and as ambassador)
Palantir
This is where the Mandelson affair needs to go next.
🚨BOOM!! The Petition calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy has now rocketed past 50,000 signatures! Let’s get it to 100,000. If a petition is what it’s going to take let’s get this done!

I'll just leave this here.
It's all talk about Emily Maitlis famous interview, but no talk about Laura Kuenssberg famous interview. Lessons not learned yet, too scared to tread where the croc's might bite or is repeating the Reform agenda an easy way to make the £s. Wonder which or maybe its all 3?
Someone at The Firm must have said to Prince Andrew...BOG OF and he has taken it that he's getting a new pad plus a free one? How else would you explain him asking for a house plus one for an ex wife?
So the Con Party and Miss Kemi want to scrap Stamp duty in NI and England. Last time that was done the price of 1st time buyer properties just escalated. It didn't help in any way with the price of the property. Not that anyone wants to pay more tax. I like the Greens idea on housing more.
So today I hear from the European Movement and Lord Heseltines speech. Here's the rub. It's all being posted on X! So I won't be reading it because it's on the very platform run by one of the very actors involved in the dismantling of democracy. Get yourselves off that hateful platform folks.
Did you watch The Hack? I can't believe papers have gotten away with destroying lives for so long. That's why I've signed the petition, set up by Hugh Grant and other phone hacking victims, to demand fair, independent regulation. Join me: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/a-...
@jessicadenson07.bsky.social So I'm thinking this collective meeting of military leaders is going to be a case of Trumps, You're either with me or you're against me? I hope I'm wrong but thinking he's at his work again?
OMG. Listening to Rachel Reeves as she talks about the UKs investments to grow UK economy. The deals done with US (BTW, Mark Carney's Canada is walking away from dependency on MAGA US...the one giving $bs to Ven?) and India..Modi's India, walking into Putins Arms. Oh Lordy we are stuffed.
Theres nothing on the losses of being out of the EU, the biggest elephant in the room. She's getting claps, but I suspect there's no claps from the electorate. Sorry Rachel and Keir. We can see right through how deals with Trump & Modi will end and its not going to grow the UK economy. Meanwhile the
barriers to trading in skill sharing, standards, procurement etc with our nearest neighbours are still in place. When you build walls Rachel there's a lot who haven't got the ladders to get over those walls. Those businesses everyday face contraction or they just cease to exist. Grow economy? NAH!
Anyone else perplexed at the fashion market in the UK. We suffer long dark winters. As if that's not bad enough as soon as September appears so do all the dreary dark, black, grey, navy clothes in the shops. Why do we have to wait until April for lovely bright yellows, pinks, blues, greens, peach
To appear on the shop rails again. Winter is dark enough. Can we not have some lovely colours to brighten our days instead of drearydark colours. Am I the only one thinks like this?
What's it with feet? One minute you're able to dance the night away in a pair of stilettos, not as much as a strap mark, the next, you're of a certain age, whereby even a pair of shoes with a kitten heal find ways of rubbing the skin to a large blister in just about every crevice of your foot?
Did my feet really alter that much in those intervening years? There's a market out there for some lovely soft pliable fashionable dress shoes at a reasonable price and no ones filling it!
@skyartapp.bsky.social Sky covering this year's Isle of Wight festival. It used to be covered by BBC. The format and presentation imo are just dreadful. A really good festival TV coverage has been ruined by Sky.
So Elon thinks he's exposing Trump when we've all been aware for years about how unfit he was for a President. Thing is Musk knew and supported him to get the Presidency. One as bad as the other. Now what Putin has on Agent Krasnov. That's what we really need to know?
Any update on what's happening with TikTok? Maybe Xi will tell DJT to go whistle in the wind. it's not for sale. DJT will go right we're blocking it, but as he uses the platform for so much propaganda & all those US business folk using it for their sales, there's going to be some backlash. Win win!
Never forget that Trump (and Farage, Tice and the rest) follow Cohn's 3 rules:
Number one: attack, attack, attack. Number two: admit nothing and deny everything. And rule number three: no matter what happens, you claim victory and never admit defeat.
Freedom of Movement was robbed from us by a successful Russian influence operation and the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.
Please repost if you want it restored.
Why do I think Maga US is about to get a lesson in French Revolution history. China dumping its Treasury bonds , moving away from US currency in favour of brics, building up its gold reserves and Donnys sh1tting all over its allies. Putin and Xi working together to make the US fall.
"What on earth is going on?"
@mrjamesob.bsky.social was so surprised by Donald Trump's turn as a Tesla salesman, he wrongly assumed some of the photos were faked.
Struck by the trademark weapons grade hypocrisy of Farage reporting a coleague to police for alleged threats of violence while hoovering uo dollars for lying to Americans about our free speech being under threat from the police...

Last night MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell said Trump was the first U.S. president to “switch sides during a war.” That aptly describes Trump’s betrayal but it can’t begin to convey the depravity of what Trump did in throwing our ally overboard and lying about every facet of Putin’s criminal aggression.
So on UKR it looks like the only person's vocal about Zalensky being a Dictator is Trump. He's even lost the NY Post and Murdoch's media on this one. Its going to be interesting to see his next move. Will it be, I never said that?
Just let this sink in
In 2016 Vote Leave marginally won
The UK gov knew of Russian interference to deliver Brexit
And despite that, May, Johnson, Truss, Sunak, and now Starmer have chosen to do what Putin wants- weaken Europe- instead of protect our democracy from Putin
Shameful
I came across this article to do with energy supply and thought.. That's very interesting. I'll give you a clue. It wasn't written yesterday but oh boy it might as well have been. Nothing has changed in 40+ yrs.
Reform are panicking about people pointing out that they want to replace the NHS. So please don't share this clip of Nigel Farage saying he'd rather healthcare was done through insurance companies.
The Apprentice UK. Anyone notice how they get a call at 4am & are told they've to be ready in 20mins? Oh how the ladies prepare their faces for the day with precision & the gents look polished like they've stepped out of a designer shop, all in 20mins? Best is the
emerging from the front of the house. Out they all come from the front door to get into the car and just like that it's magic bright sunlight at 4.20AM! The nonsense sold to the viewers and we all take it in.
