Chris Williamson: If what @Siobhain_Mc…

If what @Siobhain_Mc says in this short clip was true we would've had a Labour govt since 2017. ▪︎ Our energy and water bills would be considerably lower because the utilities would've been nationalised. ▪︎ Higher education would be free because tuition fees would've been abolished. ▪︎ Train fares would be lower because the railways would've been nationalised and the rolling stock would've been updated. ▪︎ NHS waiting times would've plummeted because the privatising spivs would've been kick out of our NHS. ▪︎ We'd now have a free social care service. ▪︎ The housing crisis would've been eliminated because there would have been a renaissance in council housing. What Siobhain conveniently forgets to mention is that she actively worked against Jeremy

Alex Wickham: Keir Starmer end-day analysis…

Keir Starmer end-day analysis: he is wounded from the last two weeks but limps on to face his fate after the locals. — The PM finished the day in a better place than he started it. He got a rare victory winning tonight’s Commons vote with minimal rebellion. If he had lost it would have been close to game over. But No10 won the argument with Labour MPs that this was a political stunt from the Tories. Labour MPs decided to keep their problems in-house rather than give Kemi Badenoch the win. — Downing Street is relieved that what threatened to be a perilous Tuesday didn’t do much serious new damage. The sessions with Philip Barton and Morgan McSweeney ended without a killer blow. When it comes to the process on Starmer versus Olly Robbins, after hours and hours of testimony from all the key witnesses, there are arguments on both sides and no clear winner, maybe just two losers. — Philip Barton’s evidence was uncomfortable for No10 but his crucial caveat that he was not put under pressure over the substance of Mandelson’s appointment process gave the PM something of a reprieve. It could have been much worse for No10. — That means after two weeks of intense scrutiny on Mandelson, he has survived until the next flashpoint after the locals. As Bloomberg reported on Saturday, Starmer’s rivals think they need a ‘perfect storm’ of events to bring him down including an ‘emotional’ response from MPs to May 7 leading to a cabinet revolt. It remains unclear if Labour MPs have the stomach or plan to change leader now. It all comes down to the days after the vote. — Starmer will seek to move past the Mandelson scandal with a renewed focus on security, in terms of Britain’s defence, economy and energy supply as we reported a few weeks ago. He is planning a series of speeches and policy interventions on those topics.

Liz Webster: While British farmers are asking…

🚨 While British farmers are asking “can we even afford to produce food?” amid fertiliser, diesel & energy crises… Today’s Times business news: “Chicken King” 2 Sisters Food Group profits jump to £108m (from £35.5m) and they announce £1.7bn investment. Farmers squeezed at the bottom. Processors & supermarkets thriving further up the chain. This is exactly why the food system is broken.

David Icke: The Cult is brilliant at manipulating perception…

The Cult is brilliant at manipulating perception - it's the foundation of their control - and they would have well KNOWN what effect Murdoch's Fox sacking of Carlson would have had on his popularity within the 'alternative'. It was a gimme. The knowledge of what sacking Carlson would do for his profile would have been a child's play level of insight for them - like obvious – and by then Cult gofer Musk was installed at Twitter to give him a much bigger platform massively algorithmically boosted. The goal was not to 'silence' Carlson as claimed here, but to amplify him as the old alternative media was hijacked by mainstreamers and their fellow travellers. If you think only in black and white and see only 'sides' you’ve already lost the perceptual plot. The Cult is far more subtle than that, but with Carlson it didn't need to be so clear was the cause and effect that would play out - as it so predictably has. Personally, I wouldn't trust Carlson, who did so much to get Trump elected, to tell me the time in a roomful of clocks. Look at the Carlson Fox internal communications that made it plain that he knew what Trump was, but publicly backed him anyway. Now we are supposed to take his apology for doing so at face value along with all the other former MAGA 'influencers'? Not a chance. Trump biographer Michael Wolff who has known Carlson for 25 years said he liked him, but: 'Tucker is one of the biggest opportunists I have ever met.' Wolff's advice: 'Always look where the opportunists are going.' Exactly.

Alex Wickham: Keir Starmer state of play ahead of a big Tuesday…

Keir Starmer state of play ahead of a big Tuesday - The PM’s allies, Labour MPs and the Tories all think Starmer will win tomorrow’s vote and Parliament will reject a privileges probe. - Starmer’s allies think they have won the argument that the timing of the vote by the Tories is politically motivated ahead of the locals. - Big beasts like Gordon Brown coming out to say as such have helped No10. Foreign affairs select committee chair Emily Thornberry agrees. Starmer’s rivals like Angela Rayner are remaining loyal. It sounds like PLP tonight was largely supportive with only a couple of left-wing dissenters. - Tory HQ think it’s a win-win for them. They don’t dispute this was a political move. Conservative officials say if Labour MPs vote with Starmer then the Tories will point that out to voters on the doorstep ahead of May 7. - The danger for Starmer comes at 9am when Philip Barton appears in front of FASC. He is expected back up Olly Robbins and Ian Collard and say No10 did put pressure on the foreign office re Mandelson. If he produces bombshell evidence of serious pressure then that could produce a case that Starmer misled Parliament. You’d expect Morgan McSweeney will deny any pressuring when he testifies at 11am. - But what it may come down to is your definition of pressure. Starmer argued to @joshglancy in the Sunday Times that there are normal pressures of the job, such as getting things done quickly. What he is denying is that No10 pressured FCDO to approve Mandelson against due process. Robbins and Collard both say pressure didn’t affect their decisions, so sort of agree. Will Barton? - Remarkably Collard says in his evidence to FASC tonight that he too didn’t see the UKSV form with boxes ticked against recommending Mandelson get clearance. That means the two key decision-makers, Collard and Robbins, didn’t see the key document and instead decided among themselves that they could mitigate the Mandelson concerns. - Nearly two weeks on from the Guardian story, who is right and wrong on the process remains unclear. No10 will still argue FCDO failed to share the UKSV concerns with them and shouldn’t have tried to cook it up among themselves. Robbins essentially argues it’s all been a big misunderstanding, that Mandelson’s vetting problems were resolvable and he shouldn’t have been sacked. As Thornberry suggested after his evidence last week, it could be that there was fault on all sides.

David Icke: It was most blatantly staged…

It was most blatantly staged. Trump refused to attend the White House Correspondents' Dinner before this in either term - not least because presidents tend to get 'roasted' on these occasions and his ego couldn't take that. Now suddenly with so much to mock about his presidency he agrees to attend so long as he does the 'roast' instead. Then near the start gunshots are heard from beyond the actual room and he's whisked away (after JD Vance) to then use the 'incident' to justify his ludicrous White House 'ballroom' in the face of gathering pushback. They now count this as 'three' assassination attempts. (1) When he was shot by a high-powered rifle that did no damage whatsoever to an ear that he claimed was hit and 'blood' emerged from. (2) a 'delusional' bloke on a golf course found while Trump was nowhere near him who at no point had a 'clear line of sight on Trump' and did not fire his gun. (3) This staged farce. We have the most corrupt and lying president in American history overseeing the most corrupt regime and thank goodness more people than ever are putting the 2 and 2 together and making 4, not 5,380. It is not impossible that they want Trump gone in some way before the end of his term, but this was the most blatant vaudeville.

Liz Webster: Remember when @Johnmcternan said…

🚨 Remember when @Johnmcternan said “we are going to do to farmers what Thatcher did to the miners… it’s an industry we could do without”? Well, here we are. The Times front page today: Britons braced for huge surges in salad, tomato & veg prices as fertiliser, diesel & energy crisis hits from the Middle East war. I also explained to LBC: no food production plan, farms ignored in Cobra meetings, Brexit barriers + reliance on world markets = Britain dangerously exposed. Farmers were right. This attitude is now coming home to roost. #SupportBritishFarmers #FoodCrisis #CostOfLiving #UKFarming

Liz Webster: “America is no longer an ally.”…

“America is no longer an ally.” Says NATO’s former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander, General Sir Richard Shirreff He says Trump’s actions mean Europe can no longer rely on US firepower and must urgently double down on its own defence. This is the brutal reality check facing Starmer’s Atlanticist strategy, the Mandelson appointment and the US 🇺🇸 trade deals - bad for NHS, farming, food security and sovereignty. #BreJoin #RejoinEU
