Absolutely every word of this 👇

Thanks for clarifying.

Oh, someone said it had been deleted ( on X) and I didn’t check. Thanks for that

Apparently now deleted, guessing the lawyers were in touch but I agree that consequences of defamatory speech like that need addressed. At the very least a public apology should be forthcoming.

It’s a nightmare on Downing Street: Starmer has no one left to blame for this Mandelson horror show | Marina Hyde Olly Robbins’s testimony will have been painful for the PM. The No 10 omnishambles was publicly laid bare – and Keir’s fresh out of scapegoats, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

Bookends for a low, dishonest decade here: from cranky auntie Margaret on ITV saying that getting a letter for publicly roaring abuse at her boss reminded her of her relatives under the Third Reich, to Margaret explaining that Jobs For The Lads are fine actually, for the correct type of Lads.

The rush to appease Trump led Keir Starmer into this ethical void | Rafael Behr Mandelson’s flaws were mistaken for credentials to represent Britain in the court of a rogue president, says Guardian columnist Rafael Behr

This is just horrific. The gender critical movement along with the British press bullied her out of her job at the NHS and now they doxed her after she fled the country and are continuing the harassment and defamation. These people are absolute monsters.

You can actually see the moment Ed Miliband thinks, what's the point burning through whatever political credibility I've got left energetically defending a man who's going to be gone in a matter of weeks.

So they can trot out the ‘we won’t wheesht’ trope.

Both the Herald and National have since responded and that ISP party is now furious, tagging in Cherry/Rowling/FWS etc and I would imagine threatening litigation might be next step. This is from ‘X’- they’ve not posted it in here yet. Incoming stushie

The BBC only appears to have a problem with what its sports presenters say off-air when it’s Gary Lineker 🙄

I feel they have curated a list of commentators( who I think need to be subscribers?) who lap all this up and post horrific misogynistic bile regularly: the Peggie coverage and anything to do with N Sturgeon really opened my eyes and I’ve unsubscribed accordingly.Shame, because some others are great

Photographer was Iain Masterton who photographs all these ‘GC’ people/events: Peggie, Darlington, the various ‘won’t wheeshters’ and FWS - pretty sure he must have a private contract from someone- also up for Scottish Press Awards -Photography like many other others allegedly holding those beliefs

April 20, 2026 Late Saturday evening, Josh Dawsey and Annie Linskey of the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump was so unstable and angry after learning on April 3 that Iranians had shot down an American jet that...

OMFG I had to go and check that this ACTUALLY happened.

Since when does the BBC ever do chyrons with a political party's branding, rather than their own? Not to mention this is during a pre-election campaign purdah.

That NHS Doctor who was hounded by a racist has left the uk because not content with that, they are now doxing her on Musk’s app and posting her new work details. Utterly contemptible behaviour

There has been a complaint and a good response.

This is not ok. Rape victims are not pawns in your political games.

Good result

MRPs are such a helpful addition to out political discourse! Look here's a bunch with an SNP majority! Ah but here's one with not even an SNP + Green majority, but what it DOES have is the Lib Dems winning *three* North East List MSPs on 10% average constituency vote there, with 0 2021 MSPs! 🤔

People who gave themselves permission to identify complainers in the Salmond case have already been jailed for between 6 & 8 months for contempt of court. To suppose these consequences couldn't be visited on you for doing the same thing is courageous, but I suggest you don't.

Screenshot from X , necessary because of the Mail/Sun/Cherry revelations- be careful folks

Watching Sturgeon live rent free in her enemies’ minds is joyous political theatre The response to Nicola Sturgeon’s memoir in Scotland from her political enemies has frankly – pun fully intended – been hysterical and…

Seems even more relevant today - Jeezo

I wonder does her ‘memoir’ mention her ‘suspiciously timed ‘ illness beginning when Salmond announced Alba and ending when he got nowhere in the last Scottish elections almost to the day whilst demanding people respect her privacy.

Also gave The Sun a video interview where she comes across very badly

I think the timing of the book just before the Scottish elections is intended to harm the SNP but as I see it these revelations will only harm her own, already damaged reputation. There is a filmed interview in the Sun 🤨where she explains she wants to protect her reputation in the legal world.

NASA just dropped the closest image ever taken of Jupiter...

Everything is fine 😬
