He wasn’t alive in the 50’s. Indeed I imagine many who harp back to the days when people caught polio & German Measles, & it could disable or kill them. Most weren’t alive. I’m early sixties. I recall a baby with no eyes, whose mum had caught GM whilst pregnant at dad’s church.
I’m continuing to listen to Vanessa Feltz on #LBC who has changed the focus to the amount of Brits who have returned from Dubai to the UK. I spent many years there. I always stayed in touch with my former house girl. She said there is trouble by the industrial zone near Abu Dhabi. Drones?
On #LBC listening to Vanessa. She is asking if Goodwin article in MoS speaks for them. His article appears to speak of a darling buds of may type memory.
Please ring in if you have time. I feel Goodwin’s article sounds like it is stirring up division & hate
I’m looking up a Chocolate Brownie recipe. And an advert in the corner is for a Jacob Rees Mogg calendar. Who buys this stuff??
Stuart Holloway, a former manager in RBS/NatWest's notorious global restructuring group, has admitted to taking £600,000 in bribes in exchange for treating customers’ firms more leniently, following near-decade-long Police Scotland investigation.

That’s a disgrace too.
But why is one expected to be acceptable & the other not?
Both are examples of Governments looking after their own & disgraceful behaviour.
An exceptional female Ambassador was removed to make way for a paedophiles friend.
Why was the original Ambassador removed?
We desperately need such a thing.
Starmer removed an impressive Female Ambassador from the US position in order to put a man who was not a professional in the diplomatic corps, & against advice, into the top role.
Knowing he had been friends with a paedophile known worldwide.
Starmer defends women/girls? F*ck off.
#Labour
Most Football Managers know something about Football, & most aren’t paid from the public purse.
Absolutely gobsmacked anyone is defending him.
Starmer removed a highly respected Female Ambassador to put a man without her skills in her place. Before we even consider that he was advised against doing it due to Epstein connection.
Shame he didn’t apply the same support for the female ambassador that was replaced by Mandelson
They removed the highly impressive Female ambassador to put a man who was mates with a paedo into the role
That’s why it’s even more dreadful that he ignored the vetting advice & insisted on putting a friend of Epstein in the most important Ambassadorial role in the World for the UK. They also removed the excellent Ambassador who was a Woman, to put a man without her skills into the role.
🤣
👏
Useless sexist husbands?
It’s too bizarre
It’s tedious how Reform voters make excuses for the worst behaviour of their politicians & criticise Labour. And Labour do exactly the same in reverse.
I’m not interested in excuses.
We are talking about Mandelson. And Starmer knew.
We should be protecting women & girls. But we don’t
I agree.
We had an excellent Ambassador in place in the US, whose career was the diplomatic service. They removed her & Starmer appears to have chosen to ignore the sage advice not to put Mandelson in the role due to his friendship with Epstein.
What did Mandelson have over Starmer?
Because Mandelson looked like an arrogant self serving pr*ck many years ago. Why was he fast tracked into this position when we had an excellent Ambassador already in place.
How is he not facing the prospect of prison? Selling secret information?
So much for Keir Starmer supporting women & girls.
He was determined to put a paedophiles friend into the top Ambassadorial role it seems.
How come a top barrister was “lied to”. Where was the vetting? Why would a former barrister choose to ignore an obvious hornets nest, & sound advice?
When I watch reality tv, I always think it’s totally disfunctional, often misogynistic, few appear to work for a living.
But it feels like successive Governments are turning into reality TV.
Deceitful manipulator with paedophile friend, gets top job with Govt….
This should be considered insider trading with a prison sentence attached.
It feels like the private sector has higher standards than those in/ connected to, the public sector.
Whilst people like Paterson could lobby for hundreds of thousands, & keep the money, we have a problem
To save “America” they need to remove that lunatic
You have a point. How depressing that UK Govt knew Mandelson was still friends with Epstein. And UK Govt were content to still give him the the highest Ambassadorial role in the world.
The Secret Service would surely have advised the UK Govt on such a matter
Thanks for your input
He “sold” secret Govt information regards the 2008 crash to Epstein.
Surely this is equivalent of insider trading, & also breaks some kind of secrecy code.
Starmer said Mandelson lied yet doesn’t say how. Maybe they both are liars.
Mandelson emailed Tony Blair’s chief of staff to introduce his 'safe friend' Jeffrey Epstein www.lbc.co.uk/article/mand...
Why was Mandelson given severance on his sacking?
He lied to get the job & was sacked eventually. Why is he still in the HoL?
Why was Mandelosn given severance? He was sacked after he shared secret Govt information with a paedophile wasn’t he? Why does he get any severance?
What a piece of sh*t
Why did Labour put him in the HoL & give him the role as Ambassador? They knew he was friends with Epstein. They must have known money was his god.
This man represented Labour. They knew what he was like. I wonder what his taxpayer funded pension is.
