I regret to inform you the Mets blew a lead in the ninth and have lost their 11th game in a row

OMG it's not just engagement farmers making false claims that the "richest people in society" have failed to pay £500bn tax.

Can Kemi and Nigel stop splurting lies then. Utterly pathetic and the press.

BREAKING: Sources say Olly Robbins felt bound by the rules of the security vetting process NOT to tell the PM, No10 or the foreign secretary about the concerns raised about Mandelson

That means it appears No10 WERE in fact unaware he had issues with his vetting

And sources say in fact Mandelson DID NOT simply fail his vetting. Instead issues were raised and the FCDO security team and ultimately Robbins had to make a decision on whether to grant him DV clearance. It was their decision and there was no “overturning,” sources say

As @SamCoatesSky reports via former security official Ciaran Martin, Robbins was prohibited from sharing information about what happened with anyone outside the FCDO security team

Sources say the point of the vetting process is that it is extremely invasive and people who go through it must be confident they can tell the whole truth and not have highly embarrassing information about their personal lives leak or be spread around colleagues

That means the circle of people allowed to know about what happens in each vetting case is very small and the information is highly privileged

The decision on whether to approve Mandelson’s clearance, according to the vetting rules, is taken by a small team of FCDO security officials and ultimately Robbins, sources say

Under no circumstance is Robbins or that team able to share the details of the vetting case with No10 or anyone else, sources say. Robbins felt he could not share it with any minister or private office, sources say

It appears the PM and No10 were unaware of how these rules were perceived by Robbins and FCDO, and think he should have told them. Allies of Robbins think it is unfair he was sacked

But crucially it appears right now that Robbins did not tell No10 and they were actually in the dark about all this until Tuesday. What an unbelievable mess

Starmer spends correct allowance on Downing Street flat

Meanwhile Nigel Farage can’t quite recall how his girlfriend’s impoverished parents paid for his £850k house in Clacton

You know, the one he forgot he didn’t actually own

Journalistic bin juice ☝️

[Rex v Notan 💫 @notanerable]

That 10 to 1 policy would be the end of workers rights in the UK as we know it by the way.

Even if it was abolished within a year it would set worker conditions and labour practices for the private sector back decades.

This isn’t even socialism it’s just economic illiteracy.

@blaiklockBP Catherine, why have you conveniently forgotten that the conservatives put a long term plan in place to migrate every benefit over onto Universal Credit, thus making the number jump?

How strange you haven't declared that.

@Alexarmstrong @christopherhope All PMs get a £30k grant for No.10 refurb you wet wipe

[Johnny @vinoveritastic]

@Alexarmstrong @christopherhope You're a complete fuckwit. All Prime Ministers get a £30K public grant to furnish Number 10 so this is within budget. Boris and Carrie spent over £100K of taxpayers' money.
