Rep Raskin reports he reviewed the full unredacted Epstein Files & Trump's name appears MORE THAN A MILLION TIMES.

We knew of 38K times—meaning we know of only ~3% of Trump's involvement with a convicted child sexual abuser & sex trafficker.

Anyone still unwilling to impeach & remove is complicit.

Well, you probably would want to post breaking Epstein developments on BlueSky, rather than the deepfake child porn site owned by the guy who was desperate for an invite to the wild parties on Epstein Island & who routinely suppresses any content that doesn’t flatter him. Makes sense.

Support for Starmer has been very high.

Anger against the BBC Politics trio Mason, Kuensberg & Zefferman has been equally high.

I think we must vote with our off switch as well as Complain in writing. If that doesn’t work we must cancel our TV Licence.

Chris Mason and Sam Coates love the Westminster tittle tattle. Far easier and more enjoyable than, say, going to a new breakfast club at a Primary School in Middlesbrough and talking to parents.
The last few days have demonstrated the depth of the piss poor BBC and Sky political coverage.

Robert Jenrick is lying.

Reform UK have spent, to date, almost £1.5 MILLION with Harding Print Solutions.

They are NOT a local Manchester printer.

They are Reform's go-to print company and have been for a long time.

That’s not true though is it Zack? Plantir is part of a consortium that was appointed by NHS England after a “rigorous, competitive procurement process”. The contract was awarded in November 2023, before Labour even came to power. You say you want better politics. Start with yourself.

Palantir's contract with the NHS was awarded by the Tories, but if there is a break clause with a review this year, that's an opportunity.

£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 fair amount of nonsense has been written and said about the "security vetting" process for Mandelson's appointment. I wrote about what "Developed Vetting" really involves and why it's perfectly possible that it found nothing useful about Mandelson.

Woof - record demand today at an auction of conventional gilts.

Investors placed bids worth 3.94 times the £3.75 billion pounds of gilts due in 2031 offered today.

Highest such ratio since Debt Management Office records began in 1998.

This is what we're up against. Bangor University, that fine and noble institution where I've spoken twice, nearly 150 years young and still going strong. The sheer hatred they reserve for us shows what could happen after 2029, but also that they're frightened of knowledge and learning.

If you were anywhere near RW media or the hell site, you can’t have missed it!

Want to know where it all came from? Why there were over 30 “news” pieces about it in just 4 days?

When he was a Tory politician (you remember, just after he was binned as a Labour one) female colleagues were free to express their disgust at his blatant misogyny. “Lee is an odious sexist,” was Anna Soubry’s irrefutable conclusion. I wonder what his current colleagues will have to say…
Jeremy Kyle is interviewing Reform MPs at a live press conference

Discussing who might take over from Keir Starmer as PM, Kyle just said: "She's had a makeover, Angela"

Lee Anderson: "She's throwing her money away, isn't she, to be honest with you"
