    “Shabana Mahmood has spent £1606.23 doing up her private office on Marsham Street. Nice for some…

    Guido’s FOI Unit obtained the figures:

    £170.60 – works to the Home Secretary’s office (completion record 19/09/25; labour
    only)
    £739.25 – additional works to Home Secretary’s office (completion recorded
    15/11/25; labour only)
    £696.38 – new floor box that contains power and data (completion recorded
    07/09/25; labour including movement of existing floor boxes).
    Tory sources say the private office has been significantly upgraded since they were in power. Co-conspirators can see a standing desk there…

    Guido can report that Mahmood also has a large vanity mirror in her Parliamentary office. The Home Secretary has spent the day in France signing a £500 million deal with the French to stop and detain migrants attempting to cross the Channel. Mahmood has said the UK will pull out of an extra detention component costing £162 million if it does not show results…

    The BBC has announced that ‘football focus ‘ has blurred into oblivion – when it was about footy – maybe 20 – 30 years ago – i sometimes indulged … but then it went DEI with a dusky girl pretending to have a clue about the footy she has never played ( blokes ) …
    Cue the ‘Harry and Paul ‘ sketch – where s the bloke luv – with the genius ad lib ‘2 sugars ‘ at the end …

    I may or may not being fair but………..

    In watching the evidence re Mandelson appointment by those senior Civil Servants I can’t get out of my mind that they are lefties and Remainers almost without exception. It’s still not clear to me why the failure of Mandelson’s vetting was never communicated to Starmer. What is clear is that the Civil Servants seem to have withheld that from Starmer and his staff, but why? It seems to me that the people involved in the appointment were under orders to approve it, Robbins referred to “pressure”. I can’t help but think these Senior Civil Servants were on board with the project with their personal political inclinations.

      Flotsam – I was going to look back at this site reaction to Mandelson being appointed in the first place .

      Perhaps the idea that Starmer should not be told – officially – on paper – that Mandelson had ( inevitably ) failed his DV – but some how had been ‘strapped ‘ was a wheeze McSweeney thought he could get away with .

      I wonder in McSweeney passed his DV assessment? There are already questions about Jonathan Powell – the yes msn
      Who was forcing through chagos .

      I understand TTK has ‘launched ‘ a ‘review ‘ into how the vetting at ‘developed ‘ level is being conducted … those inside the tent seem to have developed a culture of not caring about it …. Something which enemies of the UK would dearly encourage ….

    The BBC does its usual trick of using others to voice its own (biased) opinion.

    On the war in Iran: “The sense I got speaking to the majority of G7 finance ministers, some central bankers, and some of the world’s top financiers was unhappiness about the rest of the world picking up the inadvertent but predictable costs of the US’s decision to go to war.
    It was the Chancellor Rachel Reeves who was especially vocal on the “folly” and “mistake” of war “which is not ours”.

    Well, of course finance ministers aren’t happy about oil prices going up, duh!

    Now this is a poser…

    Surrey police say they have closed the investigation into a suspected rape case in Epsom stating that “No sexual offence occurred.”

    Surrey police say that they received a report that on Saturday 11th of April a woman had been raped near a church after leaving Labyrinth night club.

    A woman in her 20s received an “accidental head injury and made a confused report” Police said on Thursday.

    So, according to police, she was so confused she thought she had been raped when she’d just bashed her head. Hmm…

    “There was a lack of information in our initial appeal particularly regarding potential people of interest. This was because the descriptions given were vague and limited.”

    You know, it’s a very sad state of affairs, but nowadays I don’t believe anything the police tell me. They might be telling the truth, but

    I wouldn’t trust them further than I can piss…

    Unnecessary suffering edition

    Starmer soldiers on

    And we ask: Who is anyone to decide how much anguish any human should endure?

    No rape took place outside Epsom church, say police… Protesters took to the streets demanding to know whether any suspects had been identified… The scenes were dubbed “shameful” and “mindless” by Surrey Police and Crime Commissioner Lisa Townsend. She said some of those involved were not local and blamed misinformation linking the case to asylum seekers or immigrants. – reports our BBC, with a sigh of relief.

    Well, I’ll raise you: Beach sex attacker guilty… Migrant rapist was on run for murder… A small boat migrant involved in the gang rape of a woman on Brighton beach came to the UK to escape a murder in Egypt… arrived here illegally in June 2025… Two laughing attackers convicted alongside him yesterday (The Sun)

    Our BBC news online page giving prominence to that Epsom report presumably for no other reason than to dispell once and for all that old journalistic saw “Falsehood flies, and the truth comes limping after it” (Jonathan Swift)

    Believe all women?

    Surrey Police said following its “thorough investigation” into the incident, which sparked protests and public disorder in the town, they now believe the woman concerned “sustained an accidental head injury” following a night out and made “a confused report”. (BBC) – will there be some action, some prosecution for making a false crime report?

    I seem to recall the argument often aired against absolute free speech for the reason: “Shouting fire in a crowded theatre” is a popular analogy for speech or actions that create panic.

    So surely this woman ought to suffer some consequence – at least, for no other reason than to provide a deterrent to other potential provocateurs? Doesn’t sound like it: A spokesperson added: “The woman involved has given us permission to share this information and she continues to be supported by the relevant services.” (BBC)

    But I guess we’ve all had one of those mornings after the night before. When Mr AsI once said he felt as though a parrot had slept in his mouth overnight – it was more of an anology than an accusation – he didn’t want all our feathery green pets deported for alleged univited oral trespass and rough sleeping.

    HIV predator jailed for life… he targeted young men and teens across country for 7 years (In-the-tank for Labour Daily Mirror) – You guessed it, he’s white.

    Medical database breach… Health data from half a million volunteers has been put up for sale on a website owned by China’s Alibaba after a breach of the world-leading UK Biobank information databank (FT); UK Biobank health data for sale on Chinese site (Guardian)

    Wot, No Cod Wars? (there’s one for the teenagers)

    Trump Greenland ambitions bad, Brussels annexation of Iceland good: EU seeks to lure Iceland (FT) – for a moment there I thought this was the Wales-based British supermarket chain being invited to open frozen foods stores on the continent. Au contraire. The achingly pro-EU pink newpaper one likes to nickname The Brussels Trumpet, or The Mid-Belgian Courier is often seen to be as interested in European unification politics as it is in commerse:

    Brussels is open to offering a carve-out on fishing policy to accelorate a potential bid to join the bloc. It has said, as the union seeks to expand its footprint in the strategically vital Arctic (FT) – compare and contrast with: Some UK fishers feeling “disappointed, disenfranchised” after bilateral agreement with the EU (A welcome debut hereabout for Seafood Source, ‘The leading online news and knowledge resource centre for seafood industry professionals’, July 2025)

    Since the demise of the print version of the BBC’s in-house magazine Aerial, way back in 2011, the left-leaning junior poundshop Gruan that is the still yet physical paper i paper does its best to fill the gap and to feature prominent Beeb staffing announcements on its frontpage: Waking up the nation… Sara Cox lands ‘dream job’ replacing Scott Mills on Radio 2 Breakfast show (i paper)

    We must rely on the mildly conservative Telegraph for the bad news, BBC-wise: Final whistle blows for Football Focus… average viewing figures dropping at one stage to fewer than 690,000

    The Mail is rather more blunt: BBC kills off Football Focus after 52 years as ratings tank

    The in-the-tank (for Labour, NHS, BBC etc) Mirror obfuscates the poor ratings circumstances in their headline: All out of Focus… BBC axe Saturday football show

    The Star is brevity personified of course: Focus axed

    In other titles…

    The Indy is still boasting how: Indy triggered Mandelson panic – let it go… Starmer’s going nowhere.

    Couple discovers Lebanon home destroyed by Israel from satellite image
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvg30jkvklno

    Take the following basic fact:

    Terrorists fight from civilian houses. Israel destroy the house. BBC blame Israel.

    Then add 2 buckets of empathy porn and you have what the BBC thinks passes for journalism these days.

    Don’t forget to make up quotes from civilians who nobody will ever trace. Ask them leading questions first – then don’t mention the question in the article. If that fails, just make it up.

    We get this:
    ‘Both Hezbollah and the IDF say buildings in the village have been used by each other’s forces.’
    Who cares what Hezbollah say BBC ?. THEY ARE TERRORISTS. Yet the BBC give them equal weighting with Israel – a fully respected democracy.

    ‘Elias said that Hezbollah fighters might operate from villages but that the “Israelis respond excessively”.’
    I wonder if Elias has ever been up against terrorists. They have no rules. None. Something the BBC never mentioned. Have you noticed how the BBC have NEVER described what terrorists do as ‘war crimes’ ?.

    I can tell you : if ANY army thinks terrorists are fighting from a building, the building gets destroyed by mortars and tanks. Nobody goes in for close combat with such savages unless they have to.

    Just look at the utterly irrelevant emotive stories the BBC tell:

    ‘Elias built the house in his ancestral village nearly 20 years ago, after spending six years saving up. He and his wife had spent 26 years in the US, where he worked as an engineer and eventually became citizens, before deciding they wanted their six children to have a chance to experience the area where his family grew up.’

    Put the blame where it lies BBC you low-life lying scumbags. No terrorists = no house flattened.

    This article is exactly in line with the BBC tone and content to make the reader think Israel are the bad guys. No chance this clueless looking BBC clone wrote this herself : she took direction and dictation from the sinister, anonymous agenda team who carefully craft the bias into the articles.

    Families hit out today after the migrant was arrested just weeks after he had been moved into Laleham, a desirable riverside village in Surrey, in ‘secret’ after repeatedly appearing outside the school.

    Police were called after tempers flared when parents challenged the man – who is in his early 20s and is believed to have mental health issues – who they claimed had been monitoring children outside Laleham CofE Primary School in Surrey.

    Now residents in the well-healed, leafy, commuter belt village say they have ended up in the frontline of Britain’s asylum crisis after a businessman bought a £500,000 three-bedroom cottage next to Laleham’s war memorial.

    Within weeks, the property – which overlooks the wisteria-covered period family home of a very well-known female BBC presenter – was turned into a six-roomed hostel before Home Office officials moved in a group of male migrants.

    Residents and councillors of the village near Weybridge said they knew nothing about placing asylum seekers in the House of Multiple Occupation (HMO) 200 yards from the primary school.

    But trouble erupted after parents questioned the Afghan national over his behaviour – and he insisted he had paid for the right to do as he pleased.

    One mother-of-two called Rebecca told the Daily Mail: ‘I was with a group of mothers when one went to speak to him and ask him what he was doing.

    ‘He became abusive and he told her “I’m allowed to stand where I want. I paid £3,000 to be here.”

    ‘It sounded like a joke when he said it. He was suggesting he had the right to do whatever he chooses as he had paid the money to come to this country.

    ‘He went on saying “I live here. I’m relaxing”.

    ‘He was hanging around the school all the time.

    ‘When it was pick up and drop off time he would be waiting there, leaning against the wall.

    ‘He would stand in the same place as if he was waiting for someone to pick him up. Parents started to panic.

    ‘He was aggressive when you spoke to him if you were a woman. He would react angrily and be abusive.’

    ‘We were all very concerned.

    ‘I knew he knew where we lived. He had watched me and the kids walk home so many times. I knew he had watched me and my husband in his car.’

    Businesswoman Rebecca – who has a 10-year-old son at the school and a 13-year-old daughter at secondary school – added: ‘My husband was with another dad who went to talk to the school about it. When he was leaving he saw the man standing there peering over the fence looking into the school.

    ‘They went to speak to him about it and he said nothing and went back to the hostel. It was only women he got angry with.’

    Rebecca’s husband Carl told how he reported the man’s behaviour to police but was told there was nothing they could do.

    He said: ‘He was standing around and looking in people’s gardens. The police said there were a lot of “if, buts and maybes”.

    ‘The police spoke to him about his behaviour but he carried on doing what he was doing.

    ‘He just plonked himself up against the wall on the corner watching the kids. He had his arms crossed with his phone in his hands like he was filming them.

    ‘He was in the same place for days watching people coming and going. He placed himself there at school run times watching the kids.

    ‘Eventually the police arrested him but we are concerned as there are others living in the house.’

    Another local who lives close to the hostel told how the migrant launched a furious tirade at his wife because he did not like her walking her little dachshund close by.

    The man, who has lived in Laleham for 20 years, said: ‘My wife called the police because he had abused her.

    ‘Our dog is very friendly and it went up to him wagging his tail. He became abusive and aggressive.

    ‘He was shouting “Go away. Get that f***ing animal away from me. What’s wrong with you people? I hate this f***ing country”.

    ‘He was obnoxiously rude. It was only after he was arrested that the police got back to her saying the matter was being dealt with.’

    The neighbour told how he complained to the council after discovering that the nearby cottage built in the early 20th century was being turned into an HMO after it had been bought by a property developer from north London.

    Locals said no planning permission had been sought to carry out the work despite the property being in a Conservation area.

    The neighbour said: ‘It happened very quickly towards the end of last year. There was a team of builders who turned it round in three months. I was concerned because they had knocked a chimney down.

    ‘The council said that in an area like this it would be a place for young professionals.

    ‘Then about three or four weeks ago the migrants moved in. There were four or five of them. We never saw it happening. They must have moved in during the night.

    ‘Then the problems started with a man who would spend the day loitering around.

    ‘There is a bus stop outside the house which the secondary school kids use in the morning and he would go there and just lie down on the bench beside it.

    ‘What concerns me is that there are still men living there and nobody seems to be doing anything about that. This is just not an appropriate place to be putting migrants.

    ‘It’s very quiet. There is nothing to do for them here. There is no community support – it’s just asking for trouble.’

    Another local said: ‘This raises serious questions about the safeguards in place and does little to reassure residents that appropriate checks are being carried out, especially in an area with many families and in such close proximity to a primary school.

    ‘The current situation is untenable, and residents deserve clear assurances that their safety and the wellbeing of local children are being treated as a priority.’

    Many other locals in Laleham – which is close to the world famous Shepperton Studios and has a with a population of 2,500 – did not realise what was happening until the Afghan national was handcuffed at the HMO’s gates last week.

    He was held on suspicion of harassment after allegedly returning to the school despite being told to stay away by police.

    The man is now being held at a secure facility under the Mental Health Act.

    Local MP Lincoln Jopp said it was ‘unbelievable’ the suspect was ‘living in an unlicensed HMO supported by the Home Office, a stone’s throw from a primary school’.

    Earlier this month, the Tories accused the Home Office of housing asylum seekers in new areas of the country without proper vetting or consultation.

    Andrew Kennedy, a Conservative member of Kent County Council, said there was ‘widespread anger and fear’ over the Government’s decision to place more than 220 migrants in self-catering accommodation around Tonbridge and Malling.

    Mr Kennedy warned that asylum seekers are being allocated housing in ‘desirable residential areas’ as part of Labour’s move to shut migrant hotels.

    Labour has announced it is shutting 11 hotels around the country with a promise to ‘accelerate’ closures later in the Spring.

    Mr Kennedy said he was particularly concerned about the ‘lack of consultation and concerns over vetting’.

    Labour has pledged to close all migrant hotels by the end of this Parliament in 2029, rehousing them in flats and houses, as well as in large-scale accommodation centres.

    Mr Jopp challenged Sir Keir Starmer during Prime Minister’s Questions this week, in which he demanded to know ‘who screwed up’ and who was ‘responsible for the risk assessment that put’ the migrant in the HMO in Laleham.

    Why doesn’t anybody pick up these lefties when they come out with the likes of “we welcomed them into the UK…..” when talking about the dinghy boys when they are caught doing what they do and the other thing they often say, “the Windrush people rebuilt the UK”

    The majority DO NOT ‘welcome’ these people in and the Windrush lot came to have a better life.

    The hosts rarely seem to pick the lefties up on the bits of propaganda type of false information.

    Regarding hermer. Taking on the SAS isn’t a clever thing to do

    I wonder if plod is giving any ‘thought ‘ to the consequences on lying to the public- or failing to report on serious crimes ? -I doubt they do ‘thought ‘ as it’s not a measure for promotion – which is the only thing that matters to them ..

    Anyway – Epsom shows that any trust in plod is now gone – even for dubious allegations of gang rape ? ( really ) .

    At one stage they were saying the rapists were not invaders . Yet a couple of days later there was – it seems – no rape at all – no crime at all ….

    Each time these cases happen ( daily now ) plod covers up – hides behind excuses – they have forgotten who ultimately they are responsible to ….
    They’ve disconnected from the decent public and sacrificed themselves to personal careers – money – gongs –
    I bet those riot plod – so eager to have a go at the good people of Epsom – can’t wait to bash more white heads …

      If you go on other platforms like Reddit, it is all “younger” people supporting the Greens, all protesters are right wing hooligan knuckle draggers, Reform and Farage are worse the Zedong, Stalin and Hitler rolled into one.
      All Israelis are baby killers and gimmegrants are an asset to the country. Or about piling on to get groups, comedians or actors shows cancelled. The Morrison manager sacked for grappling with a serial shoplifter, that was his own fault. The four foot mayor of London has achieved so much, Starmer, Burnham and Rayner are all good people etcetera, etcetera

      It really is frightening.

    Harry – apart from this site – i dont engage – no Facebook – zip – but in my judgement there are ‘types ‘ on internet users – ( im sure there are volumes of marketing on this ) – but there’s a big group who shout out their views and can never be …. Influenced … by the views of others – green types fall into this – together with Muslims and other extremists …

    They need to identify someone as an enemy – eg Tommy Robinson – and can instantly be cancelled in their view …

    It’s a bit like trying to find someone who supports the BBC – or Starmer/hermer …. Or the current invasion ….

    Starmer to pay France $892 million, to stop the boats: https://www.theepochtimes.com/world/uk-to-pay-france-892-million-in-deal-to-reduce-illegal-immigrant-crossings-6016140

    Royal Navy Aircraft Carriers, HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales have broken down. So I think Starmer is paying for the French Carriers, Charles de Gaulle, Mistral, Tonnerre and Dixmude, to be used to sink the small boats, including RNLI lifeboats and Border Force vessels.

    Everyone has been warned about this since the 50’s.
    Not enough people have voted to stop it.
