Let’s virtually socialise with good humour again like the good ol’ days!
- So Trump supports the Chagos deal. Lols to the right wingers that were hoping for this to fall apart.
- Let’s be honest Mandelson was appointed mostly because it was known he swam in the same swamps as Trump. No they didn’t know he spilled state secrets, but they did know he spoke Trump’s language. We all knew it and thought it could be clever. Stop revising history.
- Wild prediction - Starmer stays and this improves the public perception of him as they see he has grit and would be brought down like others have. (Ok wild hope maybe?)
- *won’t be brought down obvs.

- I’m ever the optimist but is the Starmer furore calming? I’ve been out all day and no news channels talking about it.
- This poll did not go well for GB News. Lol
- 2019. Nothing we have learned in the last couple of days is new. It doesn’t lessen its seriousness but it isn’t new info. We knew all this about Mandelson 7 years ago!!
- The public were aware of everything that Starmer was aware of back in 2019 (inc. him staying at his house)as it was all in a Channel 4 Dispatches episode. So the media need to stop the pearl clutching. They also knew.
- The media class build people when they want to. It was public knowledge at this point that Mandelson was friends with Epstein.
- Reposted by DianaJuxtaposition. The UK government might be brought down by the Epstein files. We're now even talking of the Mandelson files. But the us president - a self confessed sex predator and named extensively in the Epstein files - wants everyone to move on and the US right will let him.
- The presenter Stig on Times Radio getting furious when it’s pointed out by Steve Reed that they were happy to have Mandelson as a podcast host. Stig tries to say he was just a guest. Reed points out he was a host. He was. Did @thetimes.com know he was friends with Epstein? Double standards here.
- This is the main problem. Anyone who had an ongoing relationship with Epstein after his conviction should have immediately been discounted.
- Felt like Starmer got through that pretty well tbh #PMQs
- Guys it’s ok to say Starmer got it wrong on Mandelson. It’s ok to say that. BECAUSE HE DID.
- Reposted by DianaMe: “What about the fact that Trump was found guilty in a civil court for sexual abuse…was that not enough for you to withdraw your support?” Now listen to the response from Andrea Jenkyns of the Reform Party…
- Oooh now this is interesting www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
