UK politics has been dominated in recent weeks by fallout from the appointment and subsequent sacking of Peter Mandelson as UK Ambassador to the United States.
Very clear and very useful summary of this wretched affair, Simon. The hypocrisy and idiocy of Starmer are breathtaking but no longer surprising. Clearly Thornbury is taking care to say the right things for when a cabinet role beckons. Hard to point to anyone on the Labour side who have any credit here beyond Ms Abbott and MacDonald and Co.! Thanks for taking the time to give this your critical and perceptive “irregular thoughts”!
Many thanks, Michael. There was so much more I could have written, but then I would have had to change the site name from "Irregular Thoughts" to "Interminable Thoughts".
