The sad reality is that everyone knew Mandelson was deeply compromised.
However, he potentially had the skill set and contacts to deal with the POTUS. Rightly or wrongly, the national interest trumped the victims of Epstein.
Sometimes, it's better not to know the contents of a sausage.
I feel sorry for the Tory and Labour activists who bust a gut to get Lee Anderson* and Zarah Sultana elected.
I doubt whether they knew both of them were unbearable grandstanding wazzocks at the time.

That a Labour government is held to a far higher standard than a Tory one is as disgraceful in 2026 as it was in 1924.

What a truly amazing story 🫡
a slightly grumpy looking tuxedo kitty, lounging in a wood tray filled with straw, with a medal round his neck.
The Dickin Medal is the highest award that can be issued to animals in British military service. Bearing the words "We Also Serve" it has been awarded 75 times since its creation in 1943.
Only one cat has ever received the award.
This is the story of Able Seacat Simon, of HMS Amethyst. 🧵 1/25
If anyone is near the commentary box, tell the tit from Birmingham that we play in amber, not fucking orange 🤦♂️ #hcafc

Jeremy Vine was literally frothing at the mouth on R2 at dinner time.
No, it's why we need electoral reform.
14 years of PM's dodging resignation issues left, right and centre, because there was zero pressure from the media. Suddenly it's incessant. I wonder why? 🤔
"Fraizer Campbell, a slip by Louis Carey. WINDAAAAASSSSSSS! QUITE SIMPLY DESTINED TO BE FROM DEAN WINDASS!"
I see the usual suspects are getting hard for resignations and political chaos again. The clicks must be lessening and they're close to US Navy style meals for the foreseeable. The ambulance chasers of the chattering classes should all be in the fucking bin.
just the sweetest little pangolin you ever saw
fun fact: no pangolin has ever done a single thing wrong in the entire history of the world
It wouldn't happen in another world.............
Sweet irony as NIMBYism is a cancer on British society.

If anyone knows where our beloved Mayor is, give him a nudge on this, cheers 👀
"Sir, Your Party are doing that left wing party thing again"
THEY'RE FUCKING LYING TO YOU!
Classic #GrownManBehaviour at the Bridge. What an embarrassment of a club

Turns out Ronnie is definitely undead.
While hole in one's are great to see at Augusta in the Masters. Being the first on the course at 6am on Beacon Golf Club and seeing your mate chip in for a birdie 3 from out the bunker, take his ball out the hole and find human shit all over his hand is better. Gypsies had shit in the first 3 holes
After yesterday's successful 'negotiations', I'm almost convinced that JD Vance was party to some East Yorkshire pay deals in the 2010s.
I get the feeling that Sergei's post match will earn him a trip to Lancaster Gate #hcafc
He was the innocent party in the first booking, he did nothing wrong!
Cheers again ref. I hope your next shit's a wardrobe #hcafc
Ref gets in his way, which is why he's late on the tackle. Cheers, you twat #hcafc
