Had the Labour party been reading Private Eye in 2009, when business columnist Slicker was already laying out the peculiar Mandelson-Epstein connection, they would have known exactly what they were dealing with.

Just in case anyone doubts that a Reform government would usher in a soggy mash of Trumpesque policies.

Reform politicians are happy to throw insults from a distance.

But when it comes to debating their ideas? No show.

Richard Tice pulled out.
Farage won’t face me.
Now their candidate in Gorton & Denton has ducked our candidate Hannah Spencer.

Vote Green.

Enough with the outrage theatre.
If Reform stands for ordinary working people, why did all their MPs vote against the Workers’ Rights Bill?

You can’t wedge immigration into that one. It’s just the record.

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Trump is bad at being president because all he wants is to keep the Epstein evidence of his bad behavior under wraps. He is good at that part of his job, wretched at all other aspects including accountability for his actions.

£240m. With no tender. Palantir.

I wrote to Wes Streeting last week demanding answers.

Every day without any transparency deepens the scandal.

Palantir out.
Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government.

Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’

I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.

A meeting in the USA but without any minutes.

Everything around Palantir stinks.

Good lord, he's a horror. Let's get back the workhouses, cholera, TB, and children working in dangerous factories and just flip back to Victorian times. They never talked about work-life balance and were fine, right? People lived longer, right? Erm, right?
BREAKING: Nigel Farage calls for an end to working from home and the focus on work-life balance

"People aren't more productive working from home - it's a load of nonsense”

I sincerely hope this is how it plays out. Let's have common sense triumph over false promises and rhetoric for once. DENTON & GORTON, please be trendsetters. Greens for the win!
The Green Party are favourites to win in Gorton and Denton.

Hannah Spencer - a local plumber - who cares about her community.

We have a plan to lower bills, defend our NHS and rebuild our public services.

it will really be something if the Epstein Files unseat a British Prime Minster who isn't in them, and not the American President who was Epstein's best friend.

Bad Bunny made the message clear.

The rest of the world made their message clear:

We can move on without Donald Trump.

We can move on without MAGA.

MAGA is not America.

MAGA and America are not the world.

Let their ideas rot in the last millennium.

Has Mandelson learnt anything at all from the reaction to his inclusion in the latest files relating to paedophile sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein? No.

Ian Hislop, editor of Private Eye, appeared on Tonight with Andrew Marr to discuss how Mandelson has sought, at every turn, to brazen out the crisis
