BREAKING: “That I wasn’t told that he (Mandelson) had failed security vetting when I was telling Parliament that due process had been followed is unforgivable. Not only was I not told, no minister was told” - Keir Starmer Absolutely staggering

"There are people that would love to get Keir Starmer out of Downing Street... but this is not the thing to do it over." Labour MP Barry Gardiner says the news that Lord Mandelson had failed his security vetting should not form the basis of a leadership challenge. #Newsnight

I presume he doesn't care and/or the editorial staff don't care either and his attitude is in line with production values. Feedback about him is ignored or, dare I say it, encouraged.

I sounded the alarm about Donald Trump’s sons backing drone company, Powerus. Now, Powerus wants to sell drones to countries under attack by Iran. Are Trump’s sons cashing in on the war their father started? Americans deserve answers.

We could cut the massive pensions of former MPs and the attendance allowance of members of the Lords. Presumably George Robertson would be fine with those measures to cut welfare spending. #r4today

Yesterday Israel bombed an ambulance in Lebanon, killing paramedic Hassan Badawi Over the last two & a half years Israel systematically targeted healthcare workers in Gaza, murdering hundreds, and the failure of the world to take action means Israel is free to do it again.

The only people who decide on a Party/PM are the voters. Not the media. Not the pollsters. Not people that infest our TV screens. Not gossip columnists who’ve debased themselves. Just us, ordinary people. On May 7th - vote.

What were these "huge sacrifices" that Britain made to abolish slavery that Reform UK is whining on about? Is it the reparations paid to slave owners to the value of 40% of the Treasury's annual income at the time? Nothing to slaves though. #r4today www.bankofengland.co.uk/working-pape...

Sometimes the Cormorant is black in colour. At other times, brown or with a hint of indigo. If lucky, you will see all of these colours at the same time. Then, there is the structure of the feathers. A cormorant. #UKWildlife #BirdOfTheDay #Feathers #Birds #Photography #ECK #WildlifePhotography

A juvenile cormorant resting in their usual place after a bout of fishing. This cormorant is sat on a protruding tree stump in water. Head turned to the right after I stood on a twig and was spotted.

Reform UK said I was 'bullying' when I pointed out their colleague was jailed for beating up his former partner. Now, they're trying to sneak him back into their party. So I'll say it again: James McMurdock was jailed for beating up his former partner. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
