Shouldn’t laugh but … never fails to raise a chuckle…

Great work by Labour to protect our childrens health.

What we need is thinking media people getting a grip and saying this is a non story.

Boris from Luxembourg summed it up beautifully yesterday by saying
“there’s potholes more important than this.”

Good to see some incisive questioning from a BBC journalist.

Thankfully ‘Boris from Luxembourg’ spoke at great deal more sense than that overblown buffoon who we had the misery to endure.

Strange I don’t remember the #BBC questioning this with as much vigour as they question #Labour

How about we revisit the story of a British PM who left a NATO summit, ditched his security & went to a party at the castle home of a KGB Agent, then installed said agent's son in the House of Lords. I dont remember that getting nearly as much coverage.

As ‘Boris from Luxembourg’ stated on @mrjamesob.bsky.social today,

We need a sense of perspective on this.
Mandelson was in post for 7 months.
Starmer doesn’t need to query every decision by staff as they are assumed competent.
There’s pot holes more important than this.

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:

Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%

Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

The Press knew. They laughed.

The Tories knew. They didn’t care.

All I see now is hypocrisy.

Photo of researcher in hat talking to pensioner with baseball cap on… Dave Taylor (left) debates the local elections with John Doult, who says he will vote Reform at the upcoming local elections in Swindon (The Independent)

But on a visit to the former railway town last month, the outlook for Sir Keir and his party was bleak. "I'll be voting for Reform - it can't get any worse," said pensioner John Doult, until now a lifelong Labour voter who was among the thousands employed in the town's once-famous car industry. The 86-year-old bemoaned the "terrible" state of the town centre,

“I’ll be voting for Reform - it can’t get any worse”

Oh it really can.

You put a bunch of corrupt, racist, incompetent, lying Trumpists in charge and things will get very much worse.
Potholes and empty shops will feel unimportant compared to the loss of the NHS, social care and a torched economy.

This is truly one of the most remarkable advances in cancer therapy in history: metastatic pancreatic cancer was a short-term death sentence and this new approach put many of them into long term remission. This is why we invest in science, and why RFKs effort to kill this work is misguided 🧪

Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.

He’s not the only one who should be impeached for abusing his position.

Starmer says it is ‘staggering’ and ‘unforgivable’ he was not told Mandelson failed vetting – UK politics live PM responds to Guardian revelations that Foreign Office overrode failed security vetting for former minister

I'm not what you would call a massive Keir Starmer fan but unless there's evidence to show he knew Mandelson had failed the vetting process, he should not resign and those in the civil service who are guilty of this failure of process, should. As simple as that.

Reeves vows to cut link between gas and electricity prices in UK Chancellor says she will look at ways of ensuring the wholesale price of electricity is set more often by renewables

Big deal, this. And arguably long overdue.

I'll say it again: Men like Ben Delo are not patriots.
These crypto vultures are attaching themselves to far-right parties like Reform UK Ltd because they can see their zero regulation dream coming.

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.

Equals 10 nuclear reactors
Reduces heat island, shades cars

The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.

Why aren't we doing this?

New tech allows solar panels to make electricity even from raindrops Researchers in Spain have devised a hybrid device that can generate energy using sunlight as well as raindrops.

Remember the HUGE illegal waste site in an Oxfordshire field?

Well work is well under way to remove the waste, with 15 to 30 lorries full being removed each day.

This image is what the site is looking like now thanks to the Environment Agency and Labour government.

The Shetlanders aren’t daft.
They know a phoney when they see one.

Some additional tips for Shetland voters:

We like Carney in the UK.
He was very steady as the Governor of the BoE & UK’s loss is Canada’s gain.

I also missed this. My apologies. Follow Adam!
