Farage backed Mandelson’s appointment, called him a “very intelligent man”,“enormously talented bloke,” and even offered to work with him on a Trump trade deal. The moment it backfired, he changed his tune & said Starmer should resign. He is a charlatan.

Chuffed with that!
Even if the frogs aren't.
Still a good sign so far. Again I have little faith in Netanyahu, but it does seem there's American pressure.
That said, I’m not in favour of having politically appointed Ambassadors. As we see, they often turn out to be more trouble than they’re worth. Also, maintaining a professional diplomatic service is an important national interest in my view. End/
My sympathies on this are with Starmer, for a change. This was a political appointment for which he was ultimately responsible. He really should have had all the information made available to him. But Robbins wanted to retain as many of his prerogatives as possible over diplomatic appointments. 2/
I now see what happened with the Mandelson vetting. Ollie Robbins treated it as a normal ambassadorial appointment, where he had sole discretion on vetting. In fact, he should have treated it as the equivalent of a Ministerial appointment, where the PM would expect to be told of any issues. 1/
A plausible explanation given the stated claims, if those claims are correct.
Twitter/X post from Sky News international reporter Alex Crawford reading: Israeli military reporters say 55 towns and villages in south Lebanon will remain occupied by Israeli troops. The Lebanon ceasefire agreement will impose a ‘yellow line’ similar to Gaza. Those civilians will not be permitted to return to their homes cut off by the ‘yellow line’ - ‘and the IDF is authorized to continue destroying terror infrastructures in them even during the ceasefire’, according to the Israeli reporters who were briefed by the military Link: https://x.com/AlexCrawfordSky/status/2045171752351715426
Post from @alexcrawfreports.bsky.social on X says a "yellow line" will be created in southern Lebanon, cutting off 55 villages. Stated goal of destroying "terror infrastructure" likely means entire villages will be razed leaving people with no homes to return to. The same thing is happening in Gaza.
Good piece. Also, I'm always too eager to share my, personal least favorite Chuck Schumer fact (which is saying a lot, there are many):
If by April we already have temps in Spain around 91F (33C), what we'll have in July-August-Sept? This coming summer might be an extreme heatwave all along.
Since 2022, Russia has deployed three nearly identical mysterious facilities:
🔹at a former nuclear weapons storage site in occupied Crimea
🔹at the Nenoksa test range in Arkhangelsk region, where the Burevestnik missile is tested
🔹 and at an abandoned tank firing range near Lake Ladoga.
Pope Leo XIV: Jesus told us, blessed are the peacemakers. But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.
TAKANO: An American president used the F-word in a Sunday morning message that was seen by millions. Does this raise concerns for you about the president's mental health?
RFK Jr: The president is a bargainer and he knows how to make a deal
🚨 Surrey Police Asst Chief Constable, Sarah Grahame, on the reported rape in Epsom:
"we have not found any evidence of the offence as reported"
"To address the specific commentary, there is no evidence that asylum seekers or immigrants were involved."

Good.
Is this your substack though?
substack.com/@russinchesh...
I have, it's a David Cartland acolyte, a man running multiple accounts to provide "evidence" of his weird theories,that he then uses to Grok to "prove his theories" on other accounts.
It's a circle jerk of idiocy.
I suspect someone is impersonating you on X.
Might be linked to ex GP David Cartland, DM me if you need further info.
