In her words the elite are not the Trumps or Farage’s or Bannons of this world who decide things but the Lab party.

How Long can claim that the Epstein chaos is just a Mandelson or Lab issue is beyond incredulous it’s just plain wrong. The overwhelming evidence is that most in the Epstein files are Long’s tribe- rw, deregulation mad, free market nutjobs. But she doesn’t mention them.

Camilla Long and Rod Liddle have to be 2 of the most extreme mainstream journos , both responsible for penning the most vile bigoted reactionary nonsense you can read in any British newspaper. Now I admit I don’t read the Telegraph, Mail, Sun or Express so they’re maybe worse. Both write for the ST

The monarchy and the rw press will do all it can to protect the monarchy . We have a supine press and media which does not pursue truth but protects privilege.

Concentrating on job in hand and going forward from here says PM. In other words we go on making mistakes and ruling like the last Tory govt.

Nursery worker is found guilty meanwhile Andrew isn’t even in court. Now we hear he shared confidential reports to Epstein. It’s a case of if yre at the bottom of the food chain you get convicted whereas if yre at the top you just get “investigated”.

And they keep on making mistakes! Today in papers Mahmood “pulling up drawbridge on refugees” - yet another Tory policy they’re copying. Change? Pull the other one.

Starmer will now double down on his control and because it will be seen as accepting the left’s critique of his 19 month old govt he will not take a new direction. Instead he will employ another right of centre adviser and carry on the same policies leading to more chaos and eventually a Reform gov.

Well we can guess (pretty accurately I’d say ) that he was murdered with those wanting him dead like the cast of Murder on the Orient Express.

The chaos around this govt is really something is it not? Remember that word? Remember the word, ‘Change’ too. Both were Labour’s calling cards of choice in July 2024. Because they are governing like the Tories those words come back to haunt them. No change and chaos.

As indeed are most Americans. The US is very apartheid SA when it comes to black and brown people. In my lifetime some were lynched for not being white.

Yep agree. When we played Klopp football (45th minute to 72nd) we had City on the ropes as we did when Klopp was here. I saw the 3-0 destruction of City in their pomp in CL quarter final 1st leg. Guardiola must have been rubbing his hands with glee at Slots approach today.

And City aren’t? I think if Arsenal are the pupils City are the teachers. Watching City is like watching paint dry. Unfortunately we, Liverpool, are trying to copy them. Tippy tappy football will be the death of the game.

Poor tactics from Slot who is trying to get us to play like City which we can’t. When we went at them for 27 mins in 2nd half we were much better but that’s when he should have subbed 3 players - Ketkez who was brilliant but knackered , Gakpo who had a poor game and Ekitike.

I would caution the use of the phrase “political genius “when describing McSweeny. For Lab to not win the 2024 election would have been a seismic shock. That they won with a massive commons majority with a vote share of under 35% is down to our antiquated electoral system.

Ha!!! I’ve been into politics since the 2 elections in 1974, lost my belief in the left in the miners strike when I delivered food parcels and then Brexit when the left deserted me again. They had chances to radically change things - in 1997 and 2024 and have fucked up. And Corbyn was a disaster.

Yep I’d agree. Except you can’t rely on us to beat City. If Arsenal are 9pts clear tonight then it is yours to lose although 13 games to go would suggest that’s premature. I just think with how both City and Arsenal are playing Arsenal look more resilient.

Starmer and Lab are doomed but at the moment all potential replacements for him as PM are tainted.
