Actually, this on a banknote
Quality post here, that needs greater shares
UK Terror Threat Level is under review amidst speculation it may be raised from:
🟢 Green Leader Hypnotits
to
🟠 Distracting Orange Badger Money
It appears that devolution was an event after all, and not a process.

100% backing for the excellent and fundamentally British common sense "replace Ed Davey with a badger" proposals.
Not only would I be happy to replace Churchill on fivers with a badger, I'd replace the Churchill statue in Parliament Square with a big bronze badger AND I'd replace Ed Davey with an ACTUAL badger coz it'd probably vote in less austerity.
BBC News, "Newly released documents reveal that Prime Minister Keir Starmer was warned of reputational risk over Mandelson's links with Epstein"
Should Starmer resign the same way he and Mahmood made the former Chief Constable of West Midlands Police Craig Guildford resign?
Fuck no. Absolutely not. Cut disability benefits but give tax dodgers a get out of jail free card?
Christ on a broken unicycle, no.
Your future should be based on talent, not what your family can afford.
Make it #BothVotesSNP on Thursday 7th May 2026 for a Scottish Government that is on your side.
Starmer is finished surely?
This is horrific.
The scene: a tiny office somewhere in Whitehall; several grey suited government officials in a state of some stress.
‘How can we possibly distract everyone from the release of the Mandelson papers?’
A hand is raised…
‘What about badgers on banknotes?’
After thousands were killed in a brutal crackdown on anti-regime protests in Iran in January, Mandana gave up hope for reform from within. She came to the conclusion that the Islamic republic's leaders had to go even if it meant US and Israeli-led regime change. So when the two countries attacked the compound of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on February 28, killing him and several of his family members, Mandana — who like others interviewed used a pseudonym - believed the change she coveted had finally come. Her experience in the terrifying days since has shattered that belief. Air strikes have targeted not just military sites and senior regime figures but have repeatedly hit civilian infrastructure. Over the weekend, Tehran was enveloped in toxic black smog after Israel bombed fuel depots around the city; on Tuesday, massive explosions caused widespread blackouts. "We weren't supposed to be bombed," Mandana said, her voice trembling after a massive explosion near her apartment by Vanak Square in central Tehran. "Our city, our country, this wasn't supposed to happen. How is it that Venezuela... saw clean, bloodless regime change, but not here?"
The majority of Iranians who see the January killings as unforgivable are lost over how to push for change. This includes Sara, a teacher in her forties who once hoped for the regime's overthrow but now admits she has changed her mind. "I've come to terms with the bitter reality: the Islamic republic is resilient," she said. "I never thought I'd say this, but if someone from within the regime becomes a real reformer, why not? In the end, we just want peace and welfare. Marjan, a housewife, could not hide her emotions when news of Khamenei's death broke. She had believed it would usher in the regime's collapse. "Now I wonder, even if the Islamic republic falls, what will we inherit: a land in ruins?"
A really harsh lesson here for anyone anywhere on Earth who might have been inclined to believe the white-people democracies are deeply concerned about their freedom, their wellbeing and their ability to lead a normal family life free from e.g. rivers of exploding fuel running past their houses.
Seeing these findings in black and white takes it to a new level.
Starmer has to go, but Scotland needs rid of the entire British establishment. The buck should stop with him yes - but these documents show how mucky and irreparable the entire nasty system is.
In civil service language this is devastating.
"Unusual" = not in line with procedures.
"Weirdly rushed" = incomplete.
Get Starmer to fuck.
Not letting another country run yours is a pretty good core philosophy.
My humble submission to the new Bank of England with concepts for the new bank notes to please both sides.
Peter Mandelson was a prominent, leading figure and director within the Open Britain group, one of the main component organisations of the People's Vote campaign. a Here are the key details of his role: • Key Strategist: He was considered a driving force behind the anti-Brexit campaign, aiming for a second referendum. • Board Member: He sat on the board of Open Britain. • Resignation: Mandelson resigned from the board of Open Britain in November 2019, along with other key staffers, amid a power struggle with Roland Rudd, the campaign's chairman. • Dual Role Criticism: He was accused of "playing both sides" of Brexit, by publicly leading the People's Vote campaign to stop Brexit while his lobbying firm, Global Counsel, was hosting discussions that treated Brexit as a "done deal" for corporate clients. ®
While we’re enjoying this new era of transparency, it’d be helpful to find out more about what Peter’s role was in the People’s Vote campaign. This is what the Google summary reckons and I admit, I’ve been wondering about that for some time.
Could this be in any way linked to, say, Peter’s good friends within Labour receiving a huge secret donation from a zillionaire for a dirty tricks campaign designed to throw a General Election? Would smearing reporters who tell the public about it as Russian stooges count as “the dark arts”, or not.
These files confirm that Mandelson's malign influence runs through this Labour government.
Starmer knew exactly the choice he was making when he appointed him. He has to go.
No, actually, it's your job to explain why the Prime Minister shouldn't resign after making a traitor the ambassador to the US despite being explicitly warned the guy was a shrieking hazard.
But feel free to debase yourself by trying to argue that this it's all very normal and fine.
I think it’s been well understood for many years that Mandelson’s actual role has been hooking up dubious people and questionable enterprises to dodgy funding from zillionaire weirdos, and that’s why nobody seems to have asked “how come this guy can afford a four million pound house”.

"I didn't know"
The due diligence report on Peter Mandelson's appointment handed to Keir Starmer warned about Mandelson's financial links to Russia, which he retained "long after Putin's annexation of Crimea"
👇
But hey, think about how much money the government saved by giving Peter Mandleson £75k.
While pissing it up the wall doing this.
Jones: "My friend & I are members of the Lab movement.. we're here to represent.. those that have no power & access across this country. That is what our movement was created to do"
.. & thats why we gave a top govt job to a Lord who was best pal with a billionaire paedophile
