What would you do if you had access to a time portal? Try to resolve your granny’s childhood trauma, or try to save the world from global warming? Or even dance along to Hendrix at Woodstock, 1969? 3 generations of the time trekking Anderson family do all this and more in the ‘On Time’ series.

So, student loans are a hot topic on #BBC #NewsNight. If people are interested in how we got to this point, I wrote an article on it last year. @yorkshirebylines.co.uk @bylinesnetwork.co.uk

Education, education… and bums on seats

A personal memoir of the Blair-era widening participation policy for higher education, that promised opportunity, but left a complex legacy

Wes Streeting's links with Peter Mandelson are extensive, with some in the past even saying that the disgraced former ambassador would have picked the Health Secretary for prime minister, had it been up to him

We took a deep dive 👇

Absolutely. This goes way back and into the Brexit and the Tory party. It nearly spilled here - but was then pulled back.

The Russia connection: defying gravity, reality … and treason?

Why is Gavin Williamson being given a knighthood now? A chain of events with a Russian connection might explain this baffling decision

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Sacked twice by Blair for duplicity, reappointed by Gordon Brown, then discussed with Epstein how elements of the party were plotting to get rid of Brown. His reputation in the Blair government was already well known in the UK. It’s a ‘would you buy a used car from this man’ situation.

A key Labour figure for decades, Lord Mandelson faces renewed scrutiny over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

EU to probe whether Peter Mandelson, a former EU commissioner, broke its code of conduct over his ties with late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Mandelson served as the EU’s trade chief between 2004 and 2008 and allegedly received several payments from Epstein in the early 2000s.

Perhaps the better headline is just ‘Mandelson lied repeatedly.’ It was clear he’d done that many times before and been caught at it. So why not ‘when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time,’ Starmer? Is it just because that’s what’s expected for modern politicians?

It made him indispensable to the shadier end of the ruling classes, as we can see here. But presumably many people he had in his grasp were far more important than the Duke and Duchess of Dim. So why are they still anonymous?

If Epstein was pimping an army of Putin sponsored prostitutes into high society, it would explain an awful lot of the political problems that have arisen across the western world over the last 25 years, particularly in the US and U.K. And where he and Maxwell got their bottomless bank account from.

Thank goodness we have moved on from those days… apart from the American president. I can’t understand why any woman anywhere would ever vote for him. But maybe it’s not a hopeless situation. The penny has even dropped with Majorie Taylor Greene now, so 🤞🏻

Ed Davey, "Polish gov believes Epstein may have been spying for Putin"

"Is the PM concerned that Peter Mandelson may have been leaking state secrets not just to pedophile American financier"

"But also a Russian agent"

I believe she is the only First Lady whose… um, charms have all been shown to the whole world? 🫣

The next line was generally (as I remember) ‘show us yer tits.’ These are the men our mothers warned us about. Now one of them is leading the ‘free’ world. 🤯

Most women under 30 prior to the turn of the 20th century will remember being shouted at in the street at least once a week by oiky blokes along the lines of ‘Oi, blondie, give us a smile.’ But I don’t remember a world leader ever doing this on camera before. What an utter disgrace this man is.
