- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsPart of the reason Labour is seen as fumbling and Reform is benefiting from that is because of the unfathomable and dangerous failure of the media to apply any real scrutiny at all to Farage. He’s in the Epstein files, so is Nick Candy, Reform’s treasurer. Why aren’t their collars being felt?
- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsThis is my belief, also. Yet still we have to take 'customer service' training, bcos it has been turned into this transactional relationship with fees & loans & c. I miss the 'community of scholars' of my student days in 1980s.

Goodnight from the blitz-scarred stones of Ashcourt, uneasy in remembering the nights when they didn’t know if they’d survive the blackout. Goodnight from Hookland.
- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsReasons to be cheerful: Palantir - founded & chaired by Peter Thiel and lobbied for by Peter Mandelson's Global Counsel - lost $40 billion in market value today.
- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsBlack Pear, Eclipse and Voror Health Technologies Are three UK companies that could do what Palantir was contracted to do The UK has the capabilities, Starmer chose to give Palantir the contract
- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsMost of our media is studiously ignoring the Epstein links to Brexit, Farage and far right populism. Farage is being touted for No.10. He wants an even more extreme Brexit. A race to the bottom to sell us out to this global network of oligarch crooks. Why TF isn’t he being investigated and stopped?
- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsFor anyone wondering, it was Dame Karen Pierce, who had been in the FCO since 1981 and US ambassador since 2020. She was the first woman to hold the role.
- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsWondering why Keir Starmer’s Government did so little to address the foreign tech and media oligarchs besetting us? Mandelson might provide an answer. And his removal an occasion for a fresh start

- Reposted by Samantha's Silver Earringsone of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsIn this week's column I seek to explain Keir Starmer's flat refusal to change our electoral system, even though its gross unfairness could put Reform UK in power on <30% of the vote. The reasons, I believe, are deeply cynical and disturbing. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsReform would kill universities, kill the BBC, the economy and the natural environment. They’d make everyone apart their donors and amoral short sellers poorer and the lives of immigrants a living nightmare. You never get that impression from Mason, Peston, Webb, Kuenssberg et al.

- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsWell, I would criticise Lord Mandelson, but two and a half years ago, a UK government official emailed me to tell me that I can't criticize government officials on social media, for a period going back five years. So. I have to wait a bit. (You think I'm kidding. The UK government told me that)

- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsPeople who make billions out of billions are invariably horrible, vicious, abusive, nasty, bitter human beings who think very highly of themselves and their needs and their pile of money and absolutely nothing of other human beings. If the Epstein scandal has reminded us of anything it is that.
- Reposted by Samantha's Silver EarringsI'm not sure people appreciate quite what a blow to Starmer's government the acquittal of the Palestine Action protestors is. It both blows apart the whole proscription idea and demonstrates how out of touch they are. This was a jury. Juries represent the public.
