The Mandelson saga is still running on and its looking terminal for Starmer. He's blaming "process" and firing people, but not taking real responsibility for Mandelson, and its a whole lot worse than Epstein.

This man was thrown under the bus by our dear leader and then sacked. He talked yesterday about it

The bureaucrats aren't happy with the bus chucking

Margaret Hodge is another level of awfulness. And she said this

because of this

To lighten the mood, the PM turned into Roadrunner on Monday in parliament. And thus a meme was born

Mandelson and his appointment continues to be box office material. Its not going away and is merely becoming a bigger issue because Starmer tried to hide the truth

Starmer dined out on how forensic he was a lawyer and head as the Director of Public Prosecution. A lot of people are noticing this

A debate is happening now about a Starmer being investigated by a committtee - he claims is not guilty but is effectively whipping his MPs to vote against it. Makes him look guilty doesn't it?

A Foreign Office committee is further digging into the Mandelson appointment. by speaking to Civil Serpents and McSweeney There is a consistent lack of paperwork or knowledge of who did what. Its not looking good for Starmer

Which leads to the privilege committee discussion - has Starmer lied? You can suggest Starmer has been consistently lying or being economic with the truth, and the evidence leaking out, while lacking in paperwork, is painting a less than complimentary picture about Mr Forensic

In other news, the commie goes full on commie.

While our Attorney General is being shown up for the rotter he is. He hates our Armed Forces seems to want to prosecute people for issues that don't exist.

All while Kind Charles is in America and there don't seem to be any "No Kings" protests so far

It happened again yesterday.

Good to see some heckling of the useless - a shame our PM won't show his face

As for the suspect

And the elections next week are projects to go well for the Labour party. Their popularity with the public really shows

Its the local elections this week and PM has been in Armenia hiding away from the fact he's toxic to the public

But good news, the Govt are gaslighting school kids about Reform. Ethically questionable and legally too.

But never fear, our abundant economy is going well. A hotel/pub chain is closing restaurants, 2 pubs are closing a day, high street chains are going bust, private schools older than America are closing.

This a very good post from an entrepreneur saying why socialism is degenerative to economic growth

A simple message to the silly socialists. You’re upset by businesses telling you that they will fail with the minimum wage increase.

You’re telling business owners silly things like if you can’t pay the minimum wage then you don’t have a viable business. I want to make this easier to understand, because if you mean what you say, you want people to have jobs and earn a liveable wage. So listen, businesses fail for all kinds of reasons, mainly because they are unprofitable.

We are seeing a wave of business closures at the moment because of the compounding costs from the state against a cost of living crisis. To make a cup of coffee profitable it has to eat a lot costs:

• 20% VAT (the inputs can’t be claimed back)

• Business rates (a tax before you earn)

• Rising NI costs

• Employment rights load

• Rising energy costs

• Inflation

All these are imposed by the state.

There is also a time tax with all the accounting, HR and regularity requirements which impose cost of consultants and time costs to ensure compliance, distracting owners from operating their businesses. Then there are the other normal costs. A business owner needs to make a profit else the business fails. If the business fails there are less jobs and lower tax receipts. If there are less jobs then public services crumble and welfare requirements increase. This is a compounding problem and what leads to the downward spiral of a country. So… where does the money come from if there are less jobs.

The government borrows it, that increase in the money supply drives more inflation, making life more expensive for the people you want to help. Some who now don’t have the job they once had. So what now? What is your plan? I get it, you don’t really have one, this is what has happened to every socialist state, this is how a country goes from rich to poor. We have no divine right to be a wealthy nation and can certainly lose that status. So this is your challenge, can you accept society has a distribution of wealth which means there are rich and poor or would you rather everyone was poorer as long as there are no rich.

That’s what socialists tend to want, though I have a secret for you, you can’t get rid of people being rich. I know you think profit is ugly, but the profit motive is what creates business and jobs. So anyway. I’m going to keep promoting proper economics because that’s how a nation becomes prosperous and prosperity leads to a net better outcome for all.

This does mean I am going to have to make fun of your stupid socialist ideas. Good luck, read a book and stop being a dumb dumb.

It was our kind of mid terms yesterday and its not been a good 24 hours for the Govt. Its been awful. Think the Libertarian party winning in Philly bad.

This is a good explainer

The Greens won some seats and had a wild celebration.

To understand the scale of the Labour party woes, Rayner fancies herself as PM (LOLOLOL) and this is what happened to her local council. Brutal

Andy Burnham who fancies himself too had a similar performance in his area. Labour seem to have lost Wales and lost councils they've had for decades. Projected to lose around 1500 seats across the UK

One consistent door step message has been about how deeply and viscerally hated Keir Starmer is. There is an almost personal dislike of the man and its taken down everything around him

Threads is in a full on meltdown over the results

Me. I am absolutely fecking loving this. I'm no fan of Reform or Walter Titty's partty, but seeing Labour and their smug and arrogant faces have to meet the realisation that we hate them. Its just

Most football food over here is slop, but occasionally you get an absolute diamond food - more likely in the non-league

The overall tradition is a pie bought before the game that stays hot until half time, burgers that you hope contain beef , hot chocolate where the powder refuses to mix with the water or Bovril that is pure salt and beef. All of it over priced

Now for the politics. Starmer is in full Barney from the Simpsons mode. His utterances are proving popular again

His latest relaunch today was just another Copilot effort of bland inanities of other speeches. He couldn't even deliver it without an autocue

His party loved it and changes are afoot to remove him. They are now fighting over who should and should not be involved.,

Rome is happily burning away

That page I posted from has really good ones too from different stadiums. But a lot of the UK ones are rubbish. ha ha.

100%. if you want to see better food at football, Germany is a tier above England. Both well priced and looks like real food 😆.

Starmer is now being told to go, he's refusing to go and I'm just sat thinking of Pam in Gavin and Stacey.

Who needs House of Cards on Netflix, we have House of Keir

The horses are now lining up to replace Starmer - the Health Secretary (associate of Mandelson) has just resigned. Enjoy the commie regicide and this quote about Starmer's leadership. Ouch

But where we need vision, we have a vacuum. Where we need direction, we have drift. This was underscored by your speech on Monday. Leaders take responsibility, but too often that has meant other people falling on their swords. You also need to listen to your colleagues, including backbenchers, and the heavy-handed approach to dissenting voices diminishes our politics.

Not sure about that pie. Is that kidney in there? 😊

The pies are legendary in non-league circles; sell out quickly and have an almost god like cult following. You can get Steak and Kidney pies at games, but that will be beef mince and assorted veggies with mashed potato. And taste like its homemade

No kidney please

That death sums up how bad the policing is over here. Hurty words still are a priority, even if someone is bleeding out. If its anti-semite or anti-white in nature, feels like a free pass is out there.

There are also questions being asked for why Sikhs can carry knives but women can't carry pepper spray.

It was another Unite the Kingdom march this weekend, The PM got his panties in a bunch about far right thugs, had judges on call for for quick prosecution - the FA cup final had more arrests.

Another display of patriotism that disgust commies

and very diverse

I never thought I'd see Nicki Minaj reference Maggie Thatcher and then Azelia Banks start beefing with her over it. WTAF

Our lack of free speech keeps popping up in your country.

The Chancellor did a vox pop from a local garage and it didn't go well. She got bantered at by a working class van driver and pulled off an accidental Partridge by doing it

An accidental Partridge is reference to a comedy character called Alan Partridge played by Steve Coogan, who is a tactless and inept broadcaster with ignorant views and an inflated ego.

This an IRL example

Alan Partridge is very much an icon for certain generations and his isms are everywhere. I'd recommend watching some of the series, as I would The Thick Of It - a political satire that ages well.

Moving on, great news in the local toot shops over here. You can buy a lovely Prince Diane memorial plate that watches you walk around your front room. Priceless art for just £4.99
