@DPJHodges @boswelltoday I think an audience is needed. In fact should be called back from France.

@QLoTII I wouldn't cross the street to see them. Honestly.

@KemiBadenoch There’s Lammy. But yep after that P45 then he should pack up his desk and go and there needs to be an inquiry to find out either how a liar or incompetent got to be PM.

Keir Starmer has now sacked everyone involved in Mandelson’s appointment - Chris Wormald, Morgan McSweeney, Olly Robbins.
But Starmer was ultimately the one who approved it. He’s got no one left to sack. It’s time for him to take responsibility. He should go.

Top Foreign Office official to leave post after Mandelson vetting row… bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@KemiBadenoch Duh. I meant Callaghan’s daughter. Point still stands.
English

@KemiBadenoch By takes responsibility you mean resign. We haven’t done ambassadorial appointments like this since Macmillan’s daughter’s hubby got the role. That was nepotism this was cronyism on hallucinogenics. Why on earth such a controversial figure and not a career civil servant.

Last September, Keir Starmer told Parliament three times that “full due process” was followed over the appointment of Lord Mandelson.
We now know the Prime Minister misled the House.
The Prime Minister must take responsibility.

EXCL: Peter Mandelson failed his security vetting clearance but the decision was overruled by Foreign Office to ensure he could take up his post as ambassador to US - a Guardian investigation by @PaulLewis @Direthoughts & me theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

@annamlulis Did someone chop some onions. Oh my goodness what an amazing outcome.

@TassimoES I can’t believe you’ve changed the capsules/ recipe? for Chai Latte. OMG. I know you are a business and have to possibly reduce the contents but it tastes of nothing. Lost a customer for those pods. Such a shame as was my favorite little drink.

@ChefReactions That was quite the jump cut at the end🤣Did they have to cut the part where Marty spit it out😅

@Just_Jane4Now @StephanieSidley They could have done all this on Zoom. Suspect “zoom” is involved somewhere mind you.

@StephanieSidley Zero crowds, zero fans. Give it up Harry…you’re no William
You aren’t even Royal…you quit…remember?

@ShadowofEzra We can’t even sort the plumbing on our one weeks late operational ship. Only positive is it would be a short one at least.

@Fox_Claire @roseveniceallan I watched this earlier. Is it an anniversary lol. She totally started it. I’m delighted to know who said it. lol.
English

Funny film from the past. The heckler at the end shouting at Penny "You started it" was...ME
Tom Harris 🇬🇧@MrTCHarris
I'd forgotten about this event, where Laurie Penny got her arse deservedly handed to her after she made an unprovoked personal attack on David Starkey. I expect it was about this time that she started suffering from PTSD.

@ramonagusta Last time Thatcher demanded and rightly got one the Queen’s officials his P45. Briefing too about the airbase stuff. Would love to be fly on the wall for the weekly audience.
English

I understand this is unprecedented.
Are we at the stage of an arrest yet of a sitting Prime Minister? 🤔

King Charles 'warned Keir Starmer against appointing Peter Mandelson as US ambassador' in latest humiliation for the PM trib.al/SQhB1s3

@Fibutton You are spot on. Apparently the Queen used to say she would speak to the person on one side then swap to the person on the other side for each course. The whole table followed that rather clever and polite way of doing it.
English

Yeah you can tell the current wife has never been invited or wanted at a state dinner... or is this rather poor display a dig at the floral arrangements preventing guests to see across the Royal table?
For info:
Guests are expected to speak to the person seated on their left and right, not shriek across the table to the person seated opposite.
It's not an all you can eat buffet luv!
Dearie me... 🤦🏼♀️🤪
