Boris Johnson on his way back from a party

Kemi Badenoch can't believe Keir Starmer would allow anyone with links to the Kremlin anywhere near government

I wouldn’t be too surprised if the next Prime Minister had in the past been shamelessly attacked for eating a bacon sandwich.

Every great woman has a man in front of her. 😂

This chipmunk thing sounds very public school.

Starmer said we will not rejoin the EU in his lifetime. That wasn’t in the manifesto was it?

Starmer says no!

🚨🚨New @bestforbritain.org report argues I think convincingly that a push for UK membership of the EU would galvanise support among progressive voters, recognising that other halfway options such as customs union or EEA are would offer to limited benefits. 🧵 www.bestforbritain.org/push_for_eu_...

Sledgehammer was released 40 years ago today!

After France, Denmark is moving too: its Digitalisation Ministry plans to phase out Microsoft, switching to Linux and LibreOffice in the coming months. The goal is clear—reduce dependence on a handful of global tech giants and strengthen digital sovereignty.

It’s time for a politics, free of vested interests, free of dogma, free of corruption, free of populist easy answers to complicated questions. A politics which puts justice, the individual and the community ahead of narrow self interest. A politics based on evidence, rationality and compassion. Now!

Absolutely he should have been rejected. Taking risks with national security cannot be justified, whatever the perceived gains.

None of the evidence today about adherence to vetting procedures takes away from the key point. Enough was known about Mandelson, without the need for any vetting, to know that he was going to bring trouble. I suspect Trump has been more involved in this, than has been revealed.

This is so true! It happens on camera at the 35-36 second point. 👁👁 Importantly, I think this is also the moment where Ed Miliband decided he's going to stand for party leader (and PM) again.

In the 70's the Government owned Energy, it built houses, it owned Public Services and it employed people.

Now billionaires own it all, and they pay you too.

So every year prices go up more than wages.

It's not complicated why things are only getting worse.

It's billionaires

Richard Tice told The Times in March last year he had “never met Nathan Gill”

The flaws of FPTP are becoming impossible to ignore.

@profsob.bsky.social & @alanrenwick.bsky.social give evidence to the Housing, Communities and Local Government Committee as part of its modernising elections inquiry 👇

So the Mandelson vetting process recommended rejecting him, but Robbins characterised it as a borderline case which he could mitigate against the risks and granted clearance. Have I got that right?

I thought Robinson said he wasn’t told the details. Only that the decision was borderline and the risks could be managed by the Foreign Office. How risks can be managed without knowing what they are is beyond me. He was unclear how many people were at that meeting but said he was the only FO member.

Free plug-in solar panels to be rolled out to some households The technology is designed to be a simpler and more affordable way of benefiting from renewable energy

"Low-income households will get [free] plug-in solar panels to cut their energy bills, the Government has announced."

This is how you do a just transition.

Trump has never struck me as a peacemaker. He’s just a cowardly bully.

Not a President……a terrorist!

Robbins says, as the only person from his department, he was told the outcome of the vetting was borderline and that the risks identified could be managed by his department. He was however, not told what those risks were. So how can the risks be mitigated if you don’t know what they are?

How risk can be mitigated without knowing what the risk actually is, is beyond me. It seems these processes exist with enough wriggle room to make them near meaningless.

The assertion that Zionism is essential to Jewish identity is misleading for several reasons. Judaism is a monotheistic religion at least 3,000 years old, whereas Zionism began as a secular-led political movement in the late 19th century.
