Turns out Mandelson was right about one thing...
"Peter Mandelson has said his past remarks that Donald Trump was “a danger to the world” were “ill-judged and wrong” before his expected confirmation as ambassador to the US."
Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

I’d drink to that! 🍷🍷
How delightful. And what a special memory to have. Super.
Desmond spoke for the animals and Johnny Morris spoke like the animals. Both much enjoyed when I was young.
The book of common prayer??? Perhaps that’s where the problem started. 🙄
Thornberry has pretty much exposed a man with an incredibly weak defence. Can see why Starmer sacked him tbh.
Gave it to Ms Mone.
It would be funny if Sir Starmer stood up and said; “You know, you’re absolutely right. I hold my hands up and apologise profusely for how I got this Mandelson debacle so wrong. As a result, I resign forthwith”. And walks out.
Seems to cause more outrage than attacks on actual people.
Appalling behaviour.
Maybe, but either way it’s possible there’ll be no inclination for a witch hunt causing more division. Much as I would like to see it happen.
I think you’re assuming the next administration will perform acts of vengeance on the current bunch. I wouldn’t bet on it.
Puts having a fear of heights in perspective.
Whatever the Israeli government does which is heinous, criminal and appalling there is no excuse for antisemitism.
Political hypocrisy knows no bounds. Here’s Boris Johnson. There we are then @privateeyenews.bsky.social

You have to admire tin ears and hubris like she has. But only in a feeling sorry for a challenged personality kind of way.

Not a great pic, but this showed up in the garden today. Don’t know much about #butterflies so can’t identify. Haven’t seen one like this before though.
What's weird is that, literally, almost everyone but SKS thought anything to do with Mandelson would be a mistake.
Wales Online: Always top headline writing and great journalism (for beginners)
Perhaps they didn't like to bother him with trivia. 😵💫

Affable like a snake-oil salesman
Cameron was a fool to arrange a referendum, and particularly one that didn’t require a supermajority.
It’s a tough war when both sides are sooo unlovable!
If Hungary wasn’t a member of the EU or NATO today might look very different in Budapest, as the Russian tanks rolled in.
I still have this leaflet from Vote Leave..
