NEW: Here the govt is challenge what allies of Olly Robbins’ have told me, that he didn’t do anything wrong & was prevented by law from telling ministers Mandelson has failed vetting.
This doc comes after No 10’s Friday night’s drop of the Tues evening meeting in which the PM was told the ‘recommendation from vetting officer had been DV should not be granted to Mandelson’, as No 10 attempts to shape the narrative ahead of PM’s crucial HoC appearance.
Allies of Robbins tells me he feels aggrieved and is expected to make case he didn’t do anything wrong & thought doing his job by trying to mitigate risks highlighted in vetting report around Mandelson biz interests. PM already knew of Mandelson’s relationship with Epstein when his appointment was announced back in December 2025 before the DV process

This legend is missing his first away game since 2010 today due to being banned by the club for away ticket ‘misuse’ despite helping the club with numerous ticketing issues during this time
He has still travelled and helped sort cheap train travel for over 100 of us today! #safc

Labour has spent the last fifty years destroying the city I love

We all have a pretty good idea of what’s on the cards for the local elections. Protest votes don’t get you anywhere, and they most certainly do not translate to general elections. Labour councils are already doing an excellent job across the country.

On Coffee House Shots: can the Liberal Democrats become the second largest party in local government?
Al Pinkerton MP and Lib Dem peer Mark Pack tell James Heale that it is a case of 'when, not if' they overtake the Conservatives. Plus, they discuss the need to defend international liberalism, now more than ever.

👁️People are covering their faces to avoid live facial recognition surveillance.
UK police? Grabbing them off the street for not complying & demanding their details.
Reminder: Covering your face while walking isn’t a crime.

The day that Lib Dems took control of Newcastle City Council in 2004, a colleague knocked on the door of the outgoing Labour Cabinet’s office to ask when they might be vacating. He found them panic stricken and feeding stacks of documents through shredders. #truestory

Hungary under Orbán wasn’t a police state but this is quite reminiscent of what happened in East Germany when the wall came down.

Be careful of people who pretend to be green when they’re not :)

As people get postal votes for the Scot Parl election please be careful of the spoiler operation which is 'Independent Green Voice'. They are listed second on the regional ballot paper in South of Scotland with the Green Party further down. IGV is a right-wing spoiler operation.

There is a pattern here. Both Chris Wormald and Olly Robbins appointed by this Government. Both sacked by press release when Starmer under pressure. Robbins may have approved Mandelson but it’s not credible that he acted alone w/o instruction from No10.

@BBCNews I find it quite incredible that the government can go into this level of detail about a very particular environmental hazard, but are still allowing water companies to dump millions of litres of raw sewage into our rivers, lakes and seas with very little consequence of substance.
