You’ll have to get to know me, we’re not just lists of the things we like or hate.
- Reposted by Ellis Beck"We want to stop them bleeding people dry." The Green Party want to see stricter regulations on gambling to reduce harm. Nigel Farage thinks gambling shops are great places for lonely people to hang out... What do you think?
- Reposted by Ellis Beckagain we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are his net worth is $253.2 billion. so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire and then do it again tomorrow and again the day after that and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months

- Reposted by Ellis BeckRep. Ted Lieu (D) slammed the Department of Justice for dismissing what he claims are 'highly disturbing allegations of Trump raping children and threatening to kill children' in the Epstein files.
- Reposted by Ellis BeckHow funny. The guy that funds pedophiles, consorts with pedophiles, and built an AI engine that creates pedophile images, now wants everyone to believe that he’s not like that. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...
- Reposted by Ellis BeckNo 'rare interventions' from Tony Blair at the current time? 🤔
- Reposted by Ellis BeckA lot going on here and all ugly, but one thing I still can't get my head around is how any British government can do business with Thiel at this point.

- Reposted by Ellis BeckYes, Peter decided that the continued existence of our democracies isn't compatible with his desired level of personal freedom. An absolute enemy of humanity.
- Reposted by Ellis BeckI'm guessing that the "Jes" in this message is that other moral paragon, Jes Staley, though I can't be sure. A Labour government minister, channelling the demands of his finance-bro chums. This, my friends, is how it happens. This is why we don't get what we want, or what we vote for.
- Reposted by Ellis BeckAnd it gets worse. As this excellent thread and reporting by @danneidle.bsky.social shows, Mandelson actually suggested to Epstein that yet another plutocrat should "mildly threaten" *his own government*, so that the filthy rich could avoid paying their taxes: bsky.app/profile/dann...
- Reposted by Ellis BeckRemember that Mandelson quote? "We are intensely relaxed about people getting filthy rich, as long as they pay their taxes". By "we" he meant the Labour government. Turns out that he - as a government minister - was lobbying on behalf of his filthy rich chums to ensure they paid less tax.
- Reposted by Ellis BeckThree parties - SNP, Lib Dems and Plaid Cymru - now asking for the police to investigate Mandelson. Hard to recall a worse public scandal than a cabinet minister allegedly colluding with foreign bankers to share market sensitive info and encourage threats against Chancellor

- Reposted by Ellis BeckBREAKING on ft website: Lord Peter Mandelson leaked a sensitive UK government document to Jeffrey Epstein while he was business secretary that proposed £20bn of asset sales and revealed Labour’s tax policy plans www.ft.com/content/fdf7...
- Reposted by Ellis BeckHow can anyone support a Labour Party leadership which made a conniving, lying, paedophile friend & convicted fraudster a Lord and top British Ambassador ...
- Reposted by Ellis BeckWith Palantir and Mandelson both back in the news, it’s worth revisiting this — the Epstein/Mandelson/Thiel connection, and how Mandelson’s lobbying company introduced Starmer to the Palantir team bylinetimes.com/2025/09/12/p...
- Reposted by Ellis BeckNew Epstein emails show Peter Mandelson secretly advising JPMorgan’s CEO on how to fight Labour’s 2009 bankers’ bonus tax - even suggesting he “mildly threaten” the Chancellor. Mandelson was Business Secretary at the time. A year later, he was seeking work with JPM.
- Reposted by Ellis BeckThis ought to have been the main UK news story from the DoJ’s latest Jeffrey Epstein data dump. Peter Mandelson told Epstein he was “trying hard” to change government policy on bankers’ bonuses at his request, months after Epstein paid thousands of pounds to the then Business Secretary’s husband.
- Reposted by Ellis BeckDid Starmer know 'Peter Mandelson told Jeffrey Epstein he was "trying hard" to change government policy on bankers' bonuses at his request, months after the convicted sex trafficker had paid £thousands to the then UK business secretary's husband' when appointing Mandelson ambassador? info via OCISA

- Reposted by Ellis BeckThis is absolutely shocking. Something has to be done about this appalling situation in which so many now find themselves. The government needs to act

- Reposted by Ellis BeckThe government’s suggestion that rolling out 20 minute courses on writing “AI“ prompts, sponsored by Google, Microsoft and Amazon, is somehow comparable to the founding of the Open University (the Wilson government‘s, & Jennie Lee’s, proudest achievement), is an insult to our human intelligence.
- Reposted by Ellis BeckPlease spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem. Thank you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
- Reposted by Ellis BeckTo avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally." In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.
- Reposted by Ellis BeckTory Legacy 14.2m Britons live in poverty, highest in 30 yrs. 6.8m in "very deep poverty". 34% of universal credit claimants are in work. No curbs on profiteering. Poorest 20% pay higher proportion of income in taxes than the richest 20%. 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined.

- Reposted by Ellis BeckReform UK can’t offer change when it’s packed with the same Tories who broke Britain in the first place. Nigel Farage can’t offer change when Reform has become a refuge for ex-Tories, the same MPs behind 14 years of decline & broken promises. #4today #BBCBreakfast #GMB #SkyNews
