What's the betting that-in a few weeks time-the Met will say they 'found no evidence of wrong-doing'? 🙄

The greatest threat Russia presents right now is that it gains more at the negotiation table than it has achieved on the battlefield.
Russia’s maximalist demands cannot be met with a minimalist response.

Wuthering Heights? More like Withering Hype. Strangely unerotic compilation of sex scenes interspersed with man licking things (faces, walls etc) while making monosyllabic utterings in Northern accent.

While we’re asking Mandelson to return his Foreign Office payout how about the former Prince Andrew return all the taxpayer cash he spent and trousered jetting around the world as Trade Ambassador?

This is mad. Just received this. If their pipes didn't constantly leak then they wouldn't have to impose these nonsense bans. Bills and bonuses skyrocketing.

Lot of people claiming exclusives for 'cut and paste' exposes from Epstein files but real work in exposing Prince Andrew (and Fergie) was done by the tabloids. How the pair of them were allowed to cling on and grift for decades is a question the Royal Family should be made to answer.

While we’re asking what the Government knew about Mandelson’s links to Epstein, how about asking what the Royal Family knew about Andrew’s involvement with the paedophile financier? And if Mandelson was feeding him sensitive info, what about Andrew, Britain’s trade ambassador?

What’s next for Peter Mandelson? Got to be a podcast. With an ‘amusing counterpart’, I’m thinking Ann Widdecombe or Nicky Hallam.

They should throw the kitchen sink at Mandelson - criminal investigations for misconduct in public office, insider dealing and HMRC probe into his tax affairs.

I’m watching final episode of #TheNightManager solely because I’ve invested so much time in what I can only describe as a sub-par Slow Horses featuring a sub-par Bond who’s only sexual activity thus far has been a bit of over-the-jeans frottage.
