Keir Starmer actually put this in a briefing to Labour MPs of 'useful questions to ask' today. The PM knew of Mandelson's relationship Epstein when he appointed him.
And yet thinks he can still exploit the grief of the victims. This is why he is not fit to be Prime Minister.

Today's winner of the Internet. Congratulations!
Josh Rogin: “Somebody shorted the oil market today by hundreds of millions of dollars exactly 20 minutes before Trump made his announcement—
If you see that once, it could be a coincidence. But that's happened at least three times, if not more, since the war began — that's a pattern”
Congratulations to you both! 👏👏

When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 in stamp duty, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should resign if she had “any moral decency”.
Now we learn he set up four shell companies that let him avoid paying £100,000 he owed in tax and to then transfer the cash to Reform
BREAKING: We’re taking the government to court over Palantir.
The government is refusing to hand over important briefings given to Wes Streeting about the £330m NHS data contract with Peter Thiel’s surveillance firm
So we’re taking legal action.

Seems ok today, thankfully!
For clarity, this happened on the B4437 outside Burford in Oxfordshire.
Perhaps you should have mentioned that, @STVNews

Yes! It’s been terrible all day.
£64bn is the cost of UK capitulation to pharmaceutical companies and Trump.
Secret deal commits the NHS to pay higher price for new and existing drugs
No debate in parliament.
Govt can tax the rich, cut other services, let people die, start manufacturing drugs and become self-reliant.
Did you know that Scotland is the only country in Europe to reverse child poverty over the last 16 years?
Hmm. SNP in power for 17 years, and Scotland the only country in Europe to reduce child poverty over the last 16 years. I wonder if the two things could possibly be connected? #Scotland #SNP1SGP2
Ridiculous statement from Ex Nato chief - UK unprepared for war due to an “ever-expanding welfare budget”.
25.3m people live below minimum income standard.
Since 2010 HMRC hasn't collected £500bn of taxes.
Does he think poor/ill make better defenders.
Silence on corporate welfare, taxing the rich
BBC News leading all its bulletins on demands by former Government advisor Lord Robertson for more defence spending, without at any point mentioning his current paid senior role for US defence lobbyists
Dear Wes Streeting, thank you for behaving as if you were Scotland’s colonial viceroy. Every condescending sneer from you, every imperious command, gets me what I want: one step closer to independence

Arran ferry cancellations due to mechanical faults plummet by factor of SEVEN in only three years, to only 2% and half the number due to weather talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2026/04/13/a...
Can we STOP pretending Trump has a plan?!
The imbecile has just increased Iran’s leverage,
Made life worse for all of us,
…all because he’s a thick AF egomaniac and Netanyahu’s little lapdog.
Please oh please let this finally be the moment when people who support Donald Trump "because he is Christian" realize that he isn't actually Christian, and never has been.
That’s weird as hell, on both sides!
In 2024 Sarwar promised to save Grangemouth with "hundreds of millions". Turned out to be a lie. With another election next month desperate Sarwar is at it again, promising "£100 million" emergency fuel support. 'Scottish' Labour have no credibility. #VoteSNP 👇
Scotland consistently produces more electricity than it consumes, largely thanks to our renewable resources. Yet, the data shows Scottish businesses are facing industrial electricity prices at 27p/kWh, significantly higher than their counterparts in Finland (6p), Sweden (7p), & the EU average (14p).
Once again, PM announced today, he is unwilling to sanction Israel.
Innocent children & Lebanese be damned.
You know who would have acted by now? Pierre Elliott Trudeau, Mulroney, Chretien & Trudeau the second.
Trump official warns Pope Leo that the US "has the military power to do whatever it wants—and that the Church had better take its side."
Trump is a disgrace to human race, threat to peace. US Congress does nothing.
American-born Pope Leo won't visit the US while Trump is president.
Massive fall in numbers waiting in A&E in Scotland in February including 24% drop in 12 hour waits talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2026/04/07/m...
The loud aggressive litigant pulls the case and pays indemnity costs to the other party, and enters into a compromise which leaves the other party far better off than before the case was brought.
Bullying and boasting, but based on blundering and bombast.
In Scotland, published today, Type 1 emergency departments, in February 2026:
41 252 waited more than 4 hours, down 11% from 46 571 in January 2026.
16 592 waited more than 8 hours, down 17% from 19 994.
8 024 waited more than 12 hours, down 24% from 10 550.
These are dramatic falls in one month.

Bravo Vincent L'Epée ! 👏
