Mandelson leaks UK secrets to Epstein
Epstein was working for the Russians
And still Keir Starmer will not instruct our security services to investigate Russian interference in pushing Brexit over the line

Matt Goodwin must be hoping no one in Gorton and Denton reads his Substack, with its obsession about too many Muslims and civilisational collapse. If only he hadn't picked a constituency which is 30% Muslim. www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/pop...
Matt Goodwin isn’t the winner Farage thinks he is
The academic turned right-wing firebrand is Reform’s candidate for Gorton and Denton. But his ‘Broken Britain’ mantra is unlikely to convince voters

Fascinating that there’s damaging stories on so many casual acquaintances of Jeffrey Epstein from this tranche of documents released by the DoJ, but almost nothing on his best friend for years, Donald Trump.
Feels like one hell of a coincidence, doesn’t it?

Have to say that while I find all these Epstein file revelations, Mandleson, Andrew etc totally abhorent, I do think that while we're all running around in a frenzy over it, that details are being released as a distraction. Are we falling into a trap? No mention of Trump. Really?

I’ve written to the Leader of Warwickshire County Council raising serious concerns about unlicensed HMOs in Tamworth, owned and managed by a Reform UK Warwickshire County Councillor, who appears not to have declared all his rental interests.

I like Burnham. Voted for him in 2015 leadership contest. LabourHQ could have told him no chance prior to him putting his name forward. And he could have asked them beforehand too. We've waited 14 long years to get rid of the useless Tories so for heaven's sake, shut up and let them get on with it

Any Czech/CD experts out there? Why, when I book Prague-Bratislava do I only see couchettes, but if I book Prague-Budapest on same train, couchettes & sleepers appear?
I've already added a tip to book to Budapest and get off in Bratislava, but that won't work northbound.
