Starmer's vision quest

[briantrumpet]

Former Irish Taoiseach Bertie Arhen, no stranger to scandal, always said of politics 'it's the little things that trip you up'

This Mandleson thing has the hallmarks of just such a little thing.

It's not out of the question McSweeney will have to go as a firewall.

That'd be a win-win.

From Guardian House of Lords should strip Mandelson of peerage, says Starmer
Maybe he should also be launching an inquiry as to how he became Ambassador to the US despite his involvement with Epstein being common knowledge.

I'd make them all reapply for their jobs, but that's another topic.

The cynic in me thinks that the cynic in Starmer may have known about Mandleson and Epstein and also known that Trump and Epstein had history . . . this would perhaps give Mandleson some leverage over Trump . . .

It was undoubtedly a political appointment probably based on Mandelson knowing how to handle Trump with the Epstein connection a known. But the depth of the sleaze would not have been known at the time.
