@InTheTrenchesUK That whole thing might have been spat out by Jane Austen’s Lady Catherine de Bourgh.

THE DOSSIER #19: Emily Thornberry – The Sneer of Islington Born Guildford 1960. Your father abandoned you at seven. Council estate poverty. Then the University of Kent. Gray's Inn. The barrister's escape route. You learned the law. You never learned humility. Fabian Society member. Keynote speaker at their conferences in 2019, 2024, 2025. The same society that has shaped Labour's gradualist betrayal of the working class for over a century. Labour Campaign for Human Rights patron. Chatham House speaker. Vice Chair of the APPG on Sexual and Reproductive Health. National Security Strategy Committee. Liaison Committee. All the right credentials. All the wrong people. Barrister at Tooks Chambers. Human rights law. Michael Mansfield's protege. You took the pay cut to become MP for Islington South and Finsbury in 2005. You have represented that constituency for twenty years. It remains one of London's most deprived. Your property portfolio is worth £4.6 million. You campaigned for social housing. You introduced the Housing Association Bill to "empower tenants." Then you purchased a housing association property at auction. £572,000. A Georgian townhouse in Clerkenwell. You rented it to private tenants. Reportedly to your own parliamentary researcher. You sold it for profit. "Labour's queen of hypocrisy." You earned the title. The White Van Man. November 2014. Rochester and Strood by-election. You photographed a house. Three England flags in the windows. A white Ford Transit on the drive. You tweeted it. No words needed. Your sneer was the caption. Dan Ware. A cage fighter. He had "not got a clue" who you were. He called you a "snob." Ed Miliband was "furious." You resigned as Shadow Attorney General within hours. You claimed you had "never seen anything like it." Working-class patriotism. Unfamiliar territory. You altered an Electoral Commission press release in 2006. Inserted your own quote. Made it appear official. The Standards Commissioner found your actions "unwise and unfortunate." You faced no sanction. You never do. Caroline Flint called you out in 2019. Alleged you called Brexit voters "stupid." You threatened defamation proceedings. Gave her hours to retract. Instructed solicitors. Talked tough to Sky News: "They can't make up shit about me." Then you abandoned the case. Empty threats. Your trademark. You married Sir Christopher Nugee. Lord Justice of Appeal. Boris Johnson called you "Lady Nugee" in Parliament. The Speaker intervened. Called it "sexist." You reject the title publicly. You prefer the pretence of ordinariness. While living on Richmond Crescent. Same street as Tony Blair. Same day you both moved in. Your four-storey Victorian townhouse. £2.9 million. Plus the Guildford flat. Rental income over £10,000 a year. Working-class credentials. Pure theatre. You wanted to be Labour leader in 2020. You considered it. You did not stand. You knew. You served Corbyn. You serve Starmer. You expected to be Attorney General. The real one. Not shadow. Starmer appointed Richard Hermer instead. You were "shocked and disappointed." The snub was public. The message was clear. Even your own party doubts you. Now you chair the Foreign Affairs Select Committee. Leading the "Scandelson" inquiry into Mandelson. Aggressive oversight. The irony is geological. You who altered official documents. You who abandoned legal threats when challenged. You now sit in judgment. They made you Dame Commander in 2025. DBE. For political service. The honour sits on your shoulders like a shroud. The working-class girl from the council estate who sneered at the England flag. Who profited from housing association property while preaching socialism. Who threatens lawsuits then runs. Who lives in £2.9 million splendour while her constituents queue for food banks. You are not a champion of the people. You are a cautionary tale. The champagne socialist who forgot which glass was hers. Your White Van Man tweet defines you. Your housing hypocrisy buries you. Your Damehood is mockery. You have no credibility. No authenticity. No political future worth speaking of. You gambled that class betrayal could be dressed in progressive language. You lost. Your reputation is ash. Your conscience is a void. Your Damehood is groresque. Your career is a study in elite condescension. Your betrayal of Britain is now complete. Permanent exile from public trust awaits. Congratulations. You are The Dossier.

@BBCNewsnight When you say economist, you should say who funds her, who does she work for. Every time.

@RidgeandFrost @DianaJohnsonMP @SophyRidgeSky ‘Gizza job, Andy. Pretty please.’

Dame @DianaJohnsonMP tells @SophyRidgeSky that Andy Burnham's plan to move parts of the Downing Street operation to the North is "a really good idea".

@srkntnyldz This is the cruellest of posts. All the nasty replies. So nasty.

More drinking on the golf course tonight, reported back to the camp security .anybody who is a golfer at the crowborough club please be aware they are drinking , loitering and disguarding their empties and leaving rubbish on your course

@TheGreenParty Just don’t move to her area. As she has pleaded in the recent past.

"If you lived in a country where there was genocide and mass killing of tens of thousands of people, then you would want to flee." Co-Deputy Leader Rachel Millward speaking on Channel 5 about why people seeking safety deserve compassion and refuge.

The trouble with policing hotspots is that you tend to just move the trouble on to somewhere else. Essex Police In Southend seem to have made their Problem Kent Police's problem.

@Independent Great service to the tourists. Great confusion.

A group of activists have “renamed” several iconic London Underground stations as the UK struggled through a record-breaking heatwave with highs of 37C.

@KieraDiss Pity the police officers, as well as other individuals just trying to do their jobs.

One of the culprits who destroyed MARGATE shared his day on social media for us all to see. Mass brawls, assault on police, criminal damage - that’s just his video. Any widespread consequences? Doubtful.

There was pandemonium in MARGATE this weekend as fights broke out and dozens of police were needed to tackle the situation. Another British summer staple destroyed.

@andyburnham Also please watch @newdawn75 @nfbuk message to you @andyburnham ‘We need urgent action on floating bus stops. As a visually impaired person I cannot use the bus, so it’s stopping my independence to get out and do things’. Please act on our petition.

@CityAM She wasn’t hard-left when she voted through all Starmer and Reeves’ grabs.

Ali Lyon examines the ideas and influence of hard-left MP Miatta Fahnbulleh, one of Andy Burnham's key confidants and advisers

Station security in MARGATE were viciously attacked after they refused a mob entry all at once. Every time there’s sunshine, these groups cause havoc. They left the beach in disarray, then this. How much more will we tolerate?

@ViralVideos Chavtastic. Styling by Primark.

Flexing all that cash while walking out of section 8 housing... Then again, he’s as rich as she is blonde.

Thai crypto billionaire buys his way onto the electoral register bit.ly/4xVDUTm does buying a Hampshire farmhouse buy you the right to vote and give to Reform UK?

Just a regular Saturday afternoon at Gail’s with the faces of modern London.

@darrengrimes Ask Reed about his failure to build houses. Remember his daft red hat, proclaiming that lie?

Steve Reed has had car crash interview after car crash interview this morning. This time about stabbing Starmer in the back. He repeatedly said changing leader would create chaos, just to then back Burnham in a selfie.

I’ve got nothing but respect for the Co-op staff here. It’s so easy to allow this criminality to take place, especially given you stand a chance of being the one to get in bother if the suspect claims assault. Sadly Britain today has effectively decriminalised shoplifting.
