- Reposted by did:plc:7mxwi37xledgpmgegxxvzxt2Everything connected to Mandelson must now be under suspicion? Thiel and Palantir links must be reexamined. McSweeney must be investigated for his involvement with both Mandelson and Thiel.
- If Mandelson is being investigated for his Epstein connections, he must also be investigated for his Thiel connections, because they ran a joint fund when Mandelson fixed Starmer's visit to Palantir bylinetimes.com/2025/04/25/p...
- Reposted by did:plc:7mxwi37xledgpmgegxxvzxt2Some interesting reporting in the New Statesman. There was a shortlist of four to be UK Ambassador to the US. Starmer favoured George Osborne. It was Morgan McSweeney who pushed for Mandelson.

I argued that Peter Mandelson's department “functions as a fifth column within government, working for corporations to undermine democracy and the public interest.” This thread explains what I saw, and reaches a startling conclusion.🧵 www.monbiot.com/2009/05/04/m...

- Reposted by did:plc:7mxwi37xledgpmgegxxvzxt2I really can’t keep up with this. It’s like every vague suspicion of oligarch, finance and tech power come together - with Russian influence. Yes, you’re not imagining. Only Mandelson, Lebedev, Milner and Epstein and L’Affaire Russe
- Reposted by did:plc:7mxwi37xledgpmgegxxvzxt2This is incredible. Sound up.

It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

- Reposted by did:plc:7mxwi37xledgpmgegxxvzxt2I think a bit of mourning is appropriate. The liberal international order got a lot of flack, it was hard to explain (was it even real?), US hypocrisy, etc. But frankly it is the best global order that ever existed. The goal should be to salvage as much as possible. The alternative is so much worse.
- “The old order is not coming back. We should not mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy.” As a piece of prose and geopolitical analysis Carney’s Davos speech feels history-making. paulwells.substack.com/p/the-carney...

- Reposted by did:plc:7mxwi37xledgpmgegxxvzxt2I feel like this official letter is an inflection point, convincing European elites that not only is Trump genuinely insane, but the people serving him in the U.S. government are either insane or too cowardly to object.
- Reposted by did:plc:7mxwi37xledgpmgegxxvzxt2Week by week - Laura Kuenssberg is interviewing the party leaders. When I agreed to come on the show, I was told Nigel Farage was also doing it. He's now pulled out - and they've sent the deputy instead. The same Nigel Farage who's refusing to debate me. A pattern emerging...

They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

- Reposted by did:plc:7mxwi37xledgpmgegxxvzxt2I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance". It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder". The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.
