Ruby

@TwisterFilm Actually quite a lot of people do believe it. Police report made within minutes. Maybe more difficult to believe that 2 x PMs lost so many messages!

No one believes Starmer and McSweeney's story about the stolen phone because they are both bone-deep liars. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

@kevinhollinrake @KemiBadenoch Two PMs (one who had also been Chancellor during pandemic)’s WhatsApp messages go missing when needed for inquiry re thousands of people dying vs one poor appointment. Come off it. The whole thing stinks to high heaven. What were government trying to hide?The public aren’t fools

Morgan McSweeney’s government phone “stolen” only days before he was forced to release it and its contents? Come off it. The whole thing stinks to high heaven. What are the Government trying to hide? The public aren’t fools. Publish everything. Now.

@afneil How would we know? Why would we trust the Israeli government on this?

Is there anybody in this government capable of giving a straight answer to a straight question?

@DrChrisParry Nonsense! In the scheme of things Mandelson did nothing wrong as Ambassador and seemed to get on pretty well with Trump, which was his job. He hasn’t been accused of getting involved with Epstein’s activities. Sure many of us have that friend who we discover is not what we hoped.

It’s a carefully staged performative act designed to fool the gullible. You know it is - you’re part of the deception.

@clarescastle I’ve not seen evidence of incompetence or dishonesty on this and think that the Defence Secretary has more to bother him. Sure someone more junior is looking into it.

@RedgemTree It’s a matter of National Security, and incompetence or dishonesty at the top of No 10 Downing Street. That should concern us all.

Ludicrous. The phone theft is a National Security concern. The contents relate to the appointment of our ambassador to our greatest military ally. So the Defence Minister should be interested and well prepared, to discuss at interview. Instead just another Labour shyster.

@JamesMelville Sunak managed to spend half a million in a fortnight! And Starmer cancelled the £40m helicopter contract. Pretty sure he only goes to work and represent us so it costs what it costs!

Jet set Starmer. Keir Starmer's 39 foreign trips have now cost British taxpayers £4.2m in less than two years in office. More than any other serving PM in history.

@QprEver Who elected you to speak on behalf of the British people? No one, right! Starmer isn’t perfect- no PM ever has been but my word he’s better than the last3!

🇬🇧 Resign Keir Starmer We have all had enough of you Now, sack every member of the cabinet, clear your desk, say your goodbyes & Resign By order of .. the British people #ResignKeirStarmer 🇬🇧

@stuey_beef Will we get Sunak and Johnson to do the same?

Kemi Badenoch is right: if No10 is ‘incapable’ of recovering McSweeney’s Mandelson messages, he must testify to Parliament under oath. The cover‑up ends when he is forced to open his mouth.

@JuliaHB1 That’s rumours for you. And people like you repeat them online!

Everyone continues to report that Morgan McSweeney told the Met Police his phone had been snatched by a balaclava-clad man on a bike. There is no mention of a balaclava in the police transcript of his call to report the crime. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@SimonDanczuk We don’t know that. His Chief of staff advices him to appoint which is why he has resigned. Mandelson was no friend of Starmer’s.

Rigby has no idea how Starmer feels, she's simply judging his acting abilities. What she and all of us do know is, against all advice, the PM established a process which gave an intimate friend of a paedophile, his own ally, Mandelson, the most crucial diplomatic job in Britain.

@clarescastle @Steven_Swinford Not everyone learns the names of roads they don’t go down. He said he was in Westminster. I think people just want to blow this up. There are bigger things to worry about. Bye!

@RedgemTree @Steven_Swinford With respect I don’t think your 3 years in one location, equates to his 25 years, 8 times as long, of which several in Millbank. Belgrave Road and Victoria would be very familiar territory.

BREAKING Morgan McSweeney did not tell the Metropolitan Police who he was or where he worked when he called 999 after his phone was stolen The Metropolitan Police has released a transcript of the call and said that it was not aware 'of the victims employment or the particular security risks associated with his device or material on it The call took place on 20 October, 2025 at 22.30. McSweeney stated that it was a government phone Here is the verbatim transcript of the call in full: Call handler: Police, what's your emergency? Caller: Oh, hello, someone just robbed my phone. Call handler: Did they actually take it from you just now? Caller: Yeah Call handler: How did they get away? Caller: So he's on a bike. He's come onto the pavement to grab my phone and cycled off on a bike. Call handler: And where did this happen? Caller: It happened in Belgrave Street* in Westminster. *We now know that the incident took place in Belgrave Road, Westminster. The call handler inputs Belgrave Street and it provides a matching road name in Tower Hamlets, which is what is recorded in error. There are further references to locations near to Belgrave Street in Tower Hamlets later in the call, which compounds the issue. Call handler: And whose phone are you using now? Caller: I've got two phones. I'm using my personal one. That was my work one. Call handler: Can I take the phone number for this phone you're calling on? Caller: Yeah, 07XXXXXXXXX. Call handler: Thank you. And you said Belgrave Street, yeah? Caller: Yeah, just kind of going back to the location. Call handler: Don't put yourself at any risk. It's not worth it over a phone. I appreciate it’s frustrating. Call handler: And which way did they go towards, this suspect on a bike? Caller: He went. He travels north. I saw him for a few blocks. Call handler: So where were you when you last saw him? Have you got any idea? Caller: Yeah, so. Call handler: Did you get up to Stepney? Caller: Let me tell you where I got to. I'm just going back to where I can. Caller: So he turned right. Sorry, he turned left. There's a park on top of the road and he turned left there. Call handler: Stepney Green Park, ok. Caller: Yeah. He turned left there. Call handler: Can you remember anything about his appearance? Caller: Yeah, he was young. He was a black guy. He was on a bike. Call handler: About how young? Call handler: Just a guess. Caller: Teens. Late teens. Call handler: Was he skinny, tall, any idea? Caller: Yeah. He was slim. He was about average height. Call handler: Was it an e bike or pedal bike? Caller: Pedal bike. Call handler: Have you got a tracker on the phone at all? Caller: I do. It’s a government phone. Call handler: And it's your work phone. What kind of phone is it? Caller: It’s an iPhone. Call handler: Do you know what model? Caller: I don't. [PAUSE] Call handler: Right, just bear with me a second. Call handler: We would normally deploy to see you but at the moment, we are having extreme demand on police officers. So, I don't know if you would prefer to make your way home and make a crime report over the phone or online tomorrow. I mean, I can complete one with you now. I can pass this down, you can wait, but I honestly do not know how long you'll be waiting, Caller: If I could complete it now that would be good. Call handler: Ok. Call handler: What's your name, please? Caller: My name is XXXXXXXXXX. Call handler: XXXXXXXXXX? (repeats name back) Caller: Yeah. Call handler: And your date of birth, please? Caller: It's XXXXXX Call handler: Is XXXXXXXXX (surname) all one word? Caller: Yeah, (spells surname). Call handler: And what's your home address? Caller: (Provides non-London address) Call handler: So you live in XXXXXX? Caller: Yeah. Call handler: Are you staying anywhere while you're in London? Caller: Yeah. Call handler: Sorry, it just takes a little bit longer to deal with an address outside of the Met. I do apologise. Caller: It’s ok. Call handler: And may I take an email for you please (name)? Caller: Yeah, it's XXXXXXXXXXX@XXXXXXXXXX.com (personal email address) Call handler: You'll get a copy of the preliminary crime report through to that email. Call handler: How would you like to be contacted by an investigating officer? By email or phone? Caller: Phone, please. Or either, I’m not fussed. Call handler: Have you got any finance apps on the phone? Caller: No. Call handler: You'll need to change any passwords for any logins you do have on the phone. Caller: Yeah, okay. Call handler: You're not vulnerable in any way. Are you? Caller: No I’m not. Call handler: Do you believe there was any CCTV near where the incident happened? Caller: Might be. [Inaudible] away from location. Call handler: Don't worry. Don't return. No, I'll just put at the moment unknown. And obviously, if we find out more, we find out more. Call handler: Are you willing to make a statement to support the investigation? Caller: Definitely. Call handler: So what time did he actually snatch the phone? Caller: About two minutes before I rung you and I chased, and then I rang my office to get the phone tracked and then I rang you. Call handler: Okay, cool. It would have been about 25 past that you were robbed. Caller: A little before, about 23 minutes past, I think. Call handler: 23? Little bit before? Okay. [PAUSE] Call handler: Just bear with me, I’m just trying to get this system to accept the address. Sorry about this. I won't keep you much longer. Call handler: If you do get any tracking updates, what you do is you give us call back if the phone is stationary. Caller: Yeah. Call handler: And we can review attending then. We can't guarantee attending a moving phone at all, but if it's been stationary for a few… Call handler: It’s not accepting your address. Caller: I can give you my London address? Call handler: It’s alright. I've nearly got this to work. Caller: Okay Call handler: How long you staying in London? Caller: So I come to London every week. I work in London. Call handler: Oh, I see. Okay, that makes sense. Caller: So I'll be here till Thursday. Call handler: Okay. [PAUSE] Call handler: As I was trying to say, I've got this sorted now, so I'll be texting you a crime reference number in the next few moments. Along with the crime reference number will be a CHS reference number. If you need to give us a call back, you can call back giving that reference number from any device, and then we'll be able to link it straight away to your crime report and review deploying. We will need to know a bit more details about the phone itself, so when you're contacted by the investigating officer, or if you do get tracking details, you can call us back with the IMEI number, and the type of phone that it is that would be super helpful. Caller: All right, thank you. Call handler: All right, I’m just about to text you through the crime reference number now. Caller: Thank you so much. You’ve been really helpful. Call handler: No worries. All right, (name). You take care now, okay? Bye. Caller: Bye bye.

@nathan46431388 @Iromg @Keir_Starmer Well I have a few more years than you but think my memory must be better!

@RedgemTree @Iromg @Keir_Starmer Ruby, I do disagree strongly, he is the worst PM in all my 54 yeas.

Now this absolutely lying, duplicitous, arrogant son of a bitch knows how we all feel. @Keir_Starmer was never going to last the pace. I predicted it before anyone else. Now mate - just give up. You’ve lost. It’s over…

@clarescastle @Steven_Swinford I worked in Westminster for 3 years at the House of Commons. Nothing absurd about it!

@RedgemTree @Steven_Swinford It’s a very major thoroughfare and he has worked/lived in Millbank/Lambeth/Westminster for 25 years. Anyone who knows the place knows this Stepney business is absurd. Absolutely absurd.

@HousewifePolish @KemiBadenoch @UKLabour No lies there. They have been in government less than 2 years. Can’t change the world in that time when inherit this!

@KemiBadenoch Why is the default position of @UKLabour always to lie? Because everything they believe in is built on lies: 'diversity is out strength' 'fixing the foundations' 'Net Zero' 'Smashing the gangs' 'safeguarding women and girls'

Keir Starmer can't - or won't - tell us if he spoke to Peter Mandelson before appointing him as ambassador. The strange absence of Starmer's opinion in the Mandelson files. Now the curious case of McSweeney's 'stolen' phone. There's something fishy going on.

@KemiBadenoch It’s a shame you don’t have any real work to do other than to witter on Twitter! The PM job is pretty complex. That requires them to not do everything themself. The PM got chief of staff to do work & advise. The appointment was a mistake. The Chief of staff resigned.

@Eddylegacylad @huggan_anas Minimum wage & state pension up more than inflation. more childcare hours for working parents, breakfast clubs, mental health support & more libraries in schools, water companies being held to account for sewage, renters & workers protected by legislation nhs waiting lists down.

@RedgemTree @huggan_anas He hasn’t improved anything, my energy and water bills have doubled since he came in my food bills have gone through the roof, we’ve got an idiot preaching green energy when it’s not feasible and a dimwit in charge of the exchequer, and he’s just a dull boring liar.

Anyone who says Keir Starmer is a great Prime Minister instantly loses the debate/argument. Fact 👍🏽

@sky_trees_ @DPJHodges What absolute nonsense. He isn’t perfect. No PM ever has been. He makes mistakes, every human being does. But he isn’t a blatant liar like Johnson. I think he tries to be a decent human being and I’m glad he is our PM right now.

@DPJHodges He's the most dishonest PM we've ever had. I think it's partly because he's convinced he's a Good Man, so his conscious is unconcerned by any deceit and treachery - he's a Good Man so anything he does is justified. I hate him.

Starmer is well aware that his team held meetings specifically to put together a strategy for dealing with a scenario where McSweeney's messages were asked for by parliament. He's aware those meetings were held before the 'theft' of the mobile. Yet he's pretending the opposite.

@jthomson112 Quite.

Who is perfect Ruby? And he most certainly is an improvement on the last lot!!

@drchrisnewton You can use disappearing messages with some people and not with others. Get a grip. He didn’t say he used disappearing messages all the time, just that he used them.

He has disappearing messages, but was also mysteriously able to pass a load to Beth Rigby a few weeks ago. 🤔x.com/Steven_Swinfor…
