How very apt and hypocritical. I'm alright Jack but all you plebs who had the right to live and work, well fuck you. I've voted and campaigned your rights away. It is only the colossal failure of statecraft that leaves you freezing you tits and knackers off in Blighty on your meagre pensions. I'm off to put my trotters up in the sun

True Thatcherite.

Neither. Initially I'll be there as a digital nomad like the two people I'm visiting in a few weeks. Anyone in my position could do the same.

I misunderstood. I thought you said that you were retiring?


Eventually.

ASAP. Don't put it off.

Did Oli Dugmore say anything at the time Mandelson was appointed? There seems to be a surfeit of left leaning commentators who're exceptionally wise after  the event.

He was  a wrong un with an odious and rule/law breaking track record before Epstein.

Probably, I'm certainly aware of a number of leftist commentators who commented on Mandleson becoming ambassador and it wasn't complimentary.

Dugmore is not a New Labourite. I doubt they were enamoured with Mandelson.

Arf, Dekka getting excited about the unknown and the leadership scramble that takes attention off Reform. Let's ask the standard question - who would you like Dekka and what policies of theirs particularly appeals to you?

As bad as Reform voters - 'don't like', what do you want 'dunno'

No comments on the football but straight on here to defend Blue Labour. You know when the Tories were mired in similar scandals I don’t recall you asking or saying anything about who should be the next Tory leader. You can play this down all you want but this is a monumental error of judgement by Starmer no matter how many crap advisers resign on his behalf.

Your question is akin to asking who the next manager of your club should be, when the current incumbent is floundering. It’s no defence of the person in charge.
