We’re in the truly weird position where McSweeney had to go for giving the PM the advice to appoint Mandelson and Robbins had to go for not stopping him.

This was a response to my Q: "Even tho you did not know the FULL extent of Mandelson's ongoing friendship with Epstein, it was never a good look at the time. Did u not personally have any reservations about what u DID know about the ongoing friendship. Any doubts, curiousities?"
Starmer on 5 Feb: "There was... security vetting carried out independently by the security services, which is an intensive exercise that gave him clearance for the role, and you have to go through that before you take up the post."

EXC: Newly unearthed audio shows Zack Polanski stood by his claim that hypnosis could enlarge a woman's breasts. Polanski has repeatedly said he was misrepresented and apologised on the BBC the day after the 2013 Sun article. But that's now in doubt👇 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn9e…

Keir Starmer says Peter Mandelson "has repeatedly expressed his deep regret for his association with" Jeffrey Epstein. When asked about Epstein by the Financial Times in February, Mandelson said: "It’s an FT obsession and frankly you can all fuck off. OK?”

The House of Commons was told yesterday that the Middle East Minister was in the region "pushing for peace." But he was seen partying with his Labour chums less than two miles away at Ronnie Scott's in Soho. 👇👇 dailymail.co.uk/news/article…

Surely not the same Aidan Burley who had to resign as a Tory ministerial aide over ‘clearly inappropriate behaviour’ at a stag do 'where guests, one in a Nazi uniform, chanted pro-Hitler slogans'?
I welcome former Conservative MP Aidan Burley to Reform UK at our Christmas lunch today. Death by a thousand defections.

New civil service chief Chris Wormald agreed with his then boss Mark Sedwill in early 2020 that Covid should be treated like chicken pox, with people encouraged to catch it to boost herd immunity. He was running DoH at the time. Messages shown to Covid Inquiry last year.

This is complete ignorance and textbook Islamophobia from Robert Jenrick. It literally equates every Muslim in the world with extremism. “Allah Hu Akbar” means “God is Great”. It’s a basic Islamic saying that every Muslim in the world says in prayer. It is significantly the opening line of the call to prayer and the opening phrase of every prayer. Billions of us Muslims use it every day as part of our faith within our prayers. It is a common phrase like Christian’s would say "Jesus Christ as your lord and savior". Imagine in this climate, either being that ignorant or deliberately trying to stigmatise all Muslims. He should apologise and speak to Muslim communities and learn more about our faith. xitter.cf/cfmmuk/status/18211183…
Robert Jenrick believes that somebody shouting #AllahhuAkbar on the streets of #London should be immediately arrested. No push back from Wilfred Frost on @SkyNews
