Well British PM Keir Starmer may be finished if this scandal involving his puppet Mandelson he put in the US had ties to Epstein and now photos have come out.

Well no. The Brits are reacting to people who are shown to be active in the Epstein circles swiftly. They are not protecting them. Not pretending that it didn't happen and if charges are to be laid, they won't interfere with extradition.

If anyone is focused of Starmer, then your politics is clouding your priorities.

If this was Australia, we would have a Royal Commission with super sharp powers. The house of cards would fall. There would be Alan Jones-like raids and charges. NO statute of limitations.

In America, they are protecting the famous people - led by the orange guy who just wants it to go away. I wonder why..

Mandelson's been around much longer and had (has?) more power than Starmer.

It will finish Mandelson, no doubt - but I don't think will touch Starmer. Though he continues to have other domestic issues to worry about.

Next UK election is 2029, they've no reason (Mandelson or otherwise) to panic and change leader this year.

2027 is a good bet at those odds though... if Starmer is still unpopular generally and there's someone a little more charismatic in the UK Labour ranks to take over 18-24 months ahead of the election.

Codswallop. The next UK election is 2029.

Starmer would only lose his position if the party lost faith in him.

Last election they won 411 seats ahead of the 326 needed for majority.

There is no spill motion by his party.

Labour's majority is enormous.

Media driven sour conservative murdoch garbage.

It was pointed out to me, and while I believe in innocent before proven guilty and what not, but it’s a pretty embarrassing indictment on society that we require names on emails from one guy before we really believe the testimony said by 100s of women.

 

[the phantom menace]

This is so sad... police seem to be saying this was an inside job after all, and they suspect involvement of a particular member of the kid's family (but not the parents).

The odds are for his resignation. Not a leadership spill.

The bookies are stealing your money.
