@Richard65 The top level of the govt had weekly zoom meetings for strategy. McSweeney chaired them. He always was the power behind the throne.

The left knee how cynical and corrupt that this bunch of people are but the media underreported it. Until they had no choice.

@Burnley123 I saw Laura Kuenssberg interview Pat McFadden about Mandelson, and McFadden pointed out that the media had hardly asked any questions themselves about Epstein and Mandelson's relationship. Kuenssberg retorted that it's a different issue for the PM to get this wrong, but McFadden had a point (as desperate as it was) that the media had played along with the appointment, just as Labour had.

@Richard65 They did.

The lies Starmer told the party membership prior to his election were ignored, as we're the purges on false anti-semetism charges. The Labour Together breach of funding disclosure laws has been so undereported.

Still people say that Starmer is an honourable man's brought down by Mandelson's games.

Just no. The whole project was founded in lies but the media ignored that, as they have double standards and don't care about the left. Or, they wanted Starmer to destroy the labour left and gave him a pass on all the other shit to let him do it.

@CountScrofula Yeah, McSweeney has already gone because of his Mandelson/Epstein links. I don't know if you've been following it. McSweeney was nominally chief of staff but was the real architect of the Starmer project purging the left.

Cry me a friggin river.

I'm now a Green Party member campaigning against Labour in a Manchester bye election..it's a seat we might win too
