  1. Seriously, using Mandelson to attack Starmer is ridiculous. He has nothing to do with him, Epstein or any other of those degenerate scumbags. I too like to see Starmer to step aside, but not because of these kind of false narratives. He needs to go because of the policies he pushes from Labour. Because of his marxist mindeset, his incompentence in regard to migration, culture and more. Those are real things, real arguments. This? Because of this Mandelson crap? No. BE REAL.

  2. He appointed Lammy, Lammy appointed the Foreign Office ( and got sacked from the position, for what? incompetence? ). Buck stops with Starmer, he knew or didn't know, either way his choices are to blame. He won't scapegoat his way out of it with the voting public this time.

  3. Wrong thing to say, he's supposed to be the guy in charge. Dumping on subordinates leaves a nasty taste, and it also indicates that maybe he's not in control.

  4. This man is ridiculous. Mandelsons nefarious failures of character in the various posts he held & lost in previous goverment ministries is on record. As the prime minister the responsibility stops with his judgment.He failed.

  5. Liar.
    He knew Mandelson had been TWICE dismissed from government for misconduct and didn't bother to check personally that he had passed vetting before appointing him to a very high profile and prestigious role. Nobody lied to Starmer, but Starmer is almost certainly lying to the country.

  6. His rating tells anybody who cares to look just how hated he is by just about everyone this country and many others in many other countries. He is a pathological lier at best and an utter incompetent imbecile at worst. Either way he needs to be kicked out on his ear, like right now.
