Starmer is the most incompetent PM ever and is also controlling everything.

Just like he's simultaneously doing nothing AND destroying the country.

Richard Murphy has finally gone off the rails.

Where does this prediction (criminalising anti-British unionist ideas) come from? Never even heard of it from tin foil hatters.
After a while bloggers run out of ideas and over reach.

Extrapolate far enough and everything dies.

Richard Murphy has finally gone off the rails.

Ha ha ha ha.

I wonder if Zack Polanski's alarm bells are ringing yet.

Quite a distillation of pure nationalism there too. Irregular verb- You do irrational things like make it harder to trade with your biggest market. We, er, stand out as rational.

The starting point is that it's illegal for Scotland to hold an independence referendum with Westminster agreement. Which sounds pretty outrageous when put like that, and gives Murphy and co a certain amount of mileage. The trouble is that literally every government in the EU (to which Murphy is strongly committed, and sees as a reason for Scotland to break with rUK) has exactly the same policy as regards separatism.

So he needs to up the ante. And here he is. With the usual one way bet dynamics where if it doesn't happen, he and his pals can claim they stopped it happening.

Steve and the Canary are still going. Building on heavyweight sources like Craig Murray and Max Blumental, they reckon the "MSM" did Starmer a favour by covering up his propensity for Ukrainian rent boys.
Murray's suggestion that it can't be anything to do with Russia because someone involved speaks Ukrainian is the sort of winning analysis you'd expect from someone who reckoned the Salisbury suspects had come over and promptly left because they were dealing steroids. And somebody called Crispin Flintoff reckons it was funny that the Russian angle was "hastily" presented by the media just after the trial had finished. Because it's inconceivable a journalist might have been working on it for a while and not published because of contempt of court.

I recall that powerful establishment man, Keir Starmer, couldn't even stop himself being stitched up by The Guardian over what he knew about Mandelson's vetting.

This occurred to me just now as I happened upon this old Reddit thread. Doubtless they all came back a couple of days later on another thread to say, um, yeah actually he didn't know Mandelson had "failed" (if "failed" was even the correct term).
