This is a lot more entertaining than F1. Hope we can bring such a race to HK. I would add a rule that they must wear shoes that wear out at varying degrees in wet or dry weather, depending on their pace, and must be changed at strategic intervals.

@GBNEWS Totally made up 'outrage'.
There is no such thing as a 'British costume' anyway. There's a few c19th regional ones, only worn for tourists now.

Parents fuming after children told they would be banned from wearing British costumes on 'Culture Day' - but school hits back

@CleansedTweets Nope. It used to be. Now my favourites are Mumbai and Bangkok. Within China, Shenzhen or Shanghai.

@BurnsideWasTosh Easy. He knows nothing. He’s never read anything. And has no fixed beliefs.

How the hell did Starmer get through Developed Vetting?
Calum Miller@CalumMillerLD
They call up nominated referees and ask them all about you. Finally, they interview you, at length, and spare no blushes. Drugs, infidelity, gambling, financial distress, association with extremism, sexual fetishes: they want to know if you are a security risk.

@David__Osland Replace half the low-level work by AI. And outsource the rest to a service company. Easy.
English

@SandyofSuffolk True. Successor likely to be worse. But whoever replaces him will get a moderate recovery in opinion polls. Just for not being Starmer. Will last for 9-12 months. Need to get that out the way over the next year.

Does absolutely everything in the Universe have to suck? They couldn't even leave us the World Bloomin' Cup Final!?
The Touchline | 𝐓@TouchlineX
🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: For the first time in history, The World Cup Final will have a halftime show. It will be organized by Chris Martin & Coldplay and could take up to 25 minutes.

@AaronWin33 @TouchlineX What? The half time show was invented to distract from the misery of watching American sports. Proper sports don’t need it.

@digitalsunshine @robinthemint Starmer lied to Parliament. Blame Trump. 🤡
English

Fuck me, I'm so bored of hearing about this Peter Mandelson fiasco
We ALL know why normal vetting procedures weren't followed, but no-one seems willing to say it
Two words: Donald Trump
A harsh lesson learned, not to pander to criminals

@amittalwalkar How to intimidate the opposition into defeat before the toss.
English

@robinthemint @laird01554927 He stated that due process had been followed. It wasn’t.
English

@JGillRay @laird01554927 No evidence of lies by Starmer. You may want there to be but there isn’t.
English

Anyone else totally bored with everything Mandelson, apart from the Westminster bubble, and the right wing media who love this, with so much going on in the World let it drop. Starmer has done well with World events and let his finish that. #bbcbreakfast #skynews #GMB

@michburt_burt @Johnsuarez89 @flyinglawyer73 @Steven_Swinford Everyone knows Mandelson was dodgy. Starmer should have been extra careful. If he genuinely didn’t check the situation with the vetting that’s gross negligence.
English

@Johnsuarez89 @flyinglawyer73 @Steven_Swinford Boris attended parties during Covid though. We don’t know that Starmer was informed.

Sir Keir Starmer will not resign over the Mandelson vetting scandal
Asked by Sky News if he will consider his position Darren Jones, chief secretary to the PM, told Sky News: “No. And I think if you look at what’s going on in the world, not least in relation to the conflicts in the Middle East and what that’s doing for people’s living standards, energy bills, food prices…
“You need a credible, reliable, strong Prime Minister to be able to take the country through those difficult challenges.”
English

@flyinglawyer73 @Steven_Swinford It was widely known that Mandelson was dodgy. Before appointing him to the most sensitive diplomatic role Starmer should have been extra careful. He told the House due process had been followed. Either he knowingly lied or was unacceptably careless. Either way must resign.
English

@Steven_Swinford Unless there is evidence that Starmer deliberately misled Parliament then this is not a resignation matter. Get serious ffs.
