@PaulEmbery Softly softly has never worked with policing, you can't crack a nut with a feather. Youths of today have no fear of authority that dresses up for policing duties. They need to be respected, it's won by being principled and unbiased not with dancing and face paint.

Just read on X a pile of old shit from Sky’s alleged political editor @BethRigby in which she trotted out Starmer’s defence that he didn’t know Mandelson had failed his security vetting, That’s not her job. Starmer has comms to do that. Her job, on behalf of viewers/voters is to take Starmer’s story apart. Nobody in their right mind believes Starmer wasn’t party to the cover-up. Just to post crap on X or broadcast it on Sky News is beyond poor. Journalism is about investigation and revelation. Not PR for a lying Prime Minister.

@PolitlcsUK @maxtempers Now the useless prick knows how he makes the rest of us feel on a daily basis.

🚨 NEW: No 10 sources say Keir Starmer is "absolutely furious" tonight

@MatthewStadlen @MrHarryCole @RossKempsell has proved he has lied, he has to resign, he won't because he's a sniveling coward.

It Starmer believes he inadvertently misled the House of Commons, he should explain on Monday why he didn’t reveal at PMQs on Wednesday that he had discovered on Tuesday evening that Mandelson had failed the security vetting.

IMPORTANT: PMQs Wed 4 Feb Starmer asked 'did the security vetting he received mention Mandelson's relationship with Epstein' Starmer answers: 'yes it did' So Starmer had seen the DV vetting So how can he have been unaware that Mandelson had failed that DV? #receipts

If we simply rename the English Channel “Keir Starmer’s desk” then nothing will fucking cross it

A former No 10 chief of Staff just told me: "It’s beyond belief that anyone other than the PM overruled the security assesment."

@LucyTCWife Im not sure they need dildos to fuck this country any harder.

The only question which matters in British politics tonight is this: does Oliver Robbins have the receipts? If he told a single person in No10/the private office or any minister, Starmer’s position is untenable

I think the debate about whether Matthew is now just a Starmer Cheerleader has finally been settled...

The Prime Minister is either incompetent, gullible or a liar. Or all three.

@PaulBrandITV @GiftCee @KemiBadenoch Stop spinning for the lying and incompetent fool.

Sources defending Starmer say the difference is that the privileges committee found Boris Johnson *deliberately* misled parliament. Whereas No10 is insisting Starmer did not know about the vetting and therefore inadvertently got it wrong. But Starmer didn’t wait for privileges cttee before demanding Johnson resign.

One of many problems for Starmer is that too many echoes of partygate. A PM who told the Commons, during PMQs, that something didn’t happen. Then we find out it did happen, but the PM says he didn’t know. Under those circumstances, Starmer called for Boris Johnson to resign.

Amid the welter of details that will now engulf this story let’s keep in mind one thing: How is that that somebody who failed security vetting could still be appointed our ambassador to the USA? It defies belief and logic.

“Everyone agrees with free speech until they hear something they don't like.” - Ricky Gervais

Westminster bubble story, no cut through on the doorstep where Starmer polls really well. He's getting on with the job of delivering for the British people, putting country before party and rebuilding the foundations of his number one priority.

Buckfast?

Again and again and again! “We will not raise taxes on working people” Yet here we are with taxes increased to the highest peacetime level on record an extra £130billion a year … or £4,500 per household. They lied to gain power 🤡

Anyone with a remote interest in how Chelsea are funded by Ares, please put aside 10 minutes to read this. Probably the most in depth analysis I have done. Frankly, it's scary... #Chelseafc #CFC theesk.org/2026/04/15/the…

@JoeStevens2110 @secondtierpod @JPercyTelegraph Just want Leicester gone hope they give you two points 😜

@secondtierpod @JPercyTelegraph So we need to wait now to see if we’ve done anything wrong. We are hearing it will be about 2 points which is nothing

The EFL intends to impose any sanction on West Brom for their alleged P&S breach THIS SEASON. This is despite West Brom saying they are compliant. (Via: @JPercyTelegraph)

This is the reason why we can never reform healthcare in the UK — or even have a sensible debate about it. The moment anyone suggests alternative/additional ways of funding health Labour rushes out privatisation smears and claims US private health insurance is being proposed. Labour has been doing it for decades. It explains why the NHS is effectively beyond reform. The two worst health systems in the rich world are in America and the UK. It’s why nobody has ever copied them. It would be mad to go from ours to theirs (or vice versa). But Europe is awash with health systems that can call on several sources of funds, including many with compulsory public health insurance schemes. They have better health outcomes than the NHS. They are free at the point of use (like the NHS). Most of them are better funded. But Labour puts them out of bounds, refuses even to discuss or consider. So patient care suffers. NHS struggles on. Labour is always telling us we need to get closer to Europe. It’s where we belong. But not when it comes to health, where it insists no lessons can be learned. Pretty pathetic, really.

@LucyTCWife In Coventry a lot of the longer serving members are stepping down. If you watch the committee meetings you can see why, the newer ones don't know what they're talking about. They can see the writing on the wall and are getting out.

Genuine question. Those that don’t see local elections as being important or as important as a GE, why? It’s your local councillor that works for you at local level. Sorts local issues. You are far more likely to get help from a local councillor than your local MP. A councillor is also able to work along side your local MP. Local councillors help with all sorts of local issues from fly tipping to advocating for local families on school issues, health and social care issues to finding funding for local projects A hardworking councillor that does as they should in your local area can be worth their weight in gold.
