Every single of word of this is utterly extraordinary and damning. The most senior civil servants in the British govt are accused of withholding vital information from the Prime Minister about Mandelson's failed vetting. The rest of us call this "lying". And the PM apparently was left blissfully unaware while DOZENS of civil servants discussed it? None of this adds up. More heads have to roll - and yes, one of those heads belongs to Keir Starmer.

I mean, just look at him. By steeping himself in British culture, and communicating a genuine love and appreciation, Hiroshi Suzuki has become not only a supreme ambassador for Japan, but every Brit's favourite diplomat. @AmbJapanUK is truly in a league of his own.

Sorry to have to say this...

The British do not like the kind of diversity that intends to take over Britain and kill any infidel that does not convert to Islam

Is that hard to understand, silly little man ?

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

I am pleased to have Jacob Rees-Mogg’s support for my legal action against an administrative body related to Parliament - my argument is aimed at empowering elected MPs over unelected officials.

On Tuesday 17 March my Barrister, Christopher Newman, and I were in the Administrative Court in London at a hearing in front of High Court Judge Martin Chamberlain.

It is a significant case for the power of parliament, and therefore the power of the voters.

As the MP for Great Yarmouth, I am seeking to challenge the legality of the processes of the ‘Independent Complaints and Grievance Scheme’, also known as the ICGS - importantly, it is entirely legally separate from Parliament. The scheme’s genesis is driven by the ‘Me Too’ movement in 2018.

The ICGS are seeking to use the doctrine of ‘Parliamentary Privilege’ to assert that they are, in effect, beyond the scrutiny of the law. Parliamentary privilege exists to allow MPs to do our job away from legal threats, it does not exist to protect bureaucratic bodies.

As Jacob Rees-Mogg, former Leader of the House of Commons, points out in his analysis:

“As the ICGS is independent, it cannot in its workings be a Commons body, as it would then not be independent. It is really very straightforward and Rupert Lowe seems to be right."

This is arguably the most significant constitutional case in years with the ICGS now arguing the polar opposite of the position the state took in the case of R v Chaytor where MPs unsuccessfully tried to use Parliamentary Privilege to avoid prosecution for abuse of expense claims.

ICGS staff are not legally qualified, and this administrative body is outside the orbit of the Chamber and has no link to MPs. It has not reported to a Parliamentary Committee of MPs since 2020 when all links were severed and a panel was inserted.

It is our argument that this body cannot claim to be above the law - it is not right that a bureaucratic body separate from Parliament is attempting to use parliamentary privilege, designed for elected politicians, to avoid reasonable scrutiny.

Rees-Mogg ends his article:

“Thus if Lowe wins, he will not have harmed Parliament, but defended it. For through cowardice we – and I was an MP at the time – abdicated our privileged responsibility and gave it to unelected boffins, who are not so much better than elected politicians after all, but much harder to eject.”

We expect a Judgment after Easter, around 14 April 2026.

BREAKING NOW: Trump just DROPPED THE BOMB on live phone call!

“I talked to Starmer about Iran—he literally said he CAN’T make a decision and has to ASK HIS TEAM first!!”

“I told him you don’t need to talk to your team”

Folks… we have a completely SPINELESS, dithering, LAME-DUCK Prime Minister who is utterly CLUELESS and TOTALLY INCAPABLE!!!
😱🇬🇧🚨

This is absolutely disgusting.
What the hell has Britain become when we treat our elderly so appallingly? Having myself been through a similar fractured femur injury recently, she must have been in agony, the poor woman. Shameful.

[@ChatsWithEm @chatswithem]

Such an embarrassing sh show at PMQs today

Again it's a highlight of how far we have fallen

A man who thinks you can grow a cervix reading a script someone else has given him - and never answering a single question

And the behaviour of those sat around with the jeering and rudeness shown whilst people are trying to talk

It's an embarrassment

No better than squabbling shouting school yard bullies

We need to revive the British etiquette and standards

Be something we can respect again and be proud of

Utter waste of time listening to anything that comes out of Lammys mouth - crowing about raising minimum wage whilst ignoring unemployment rocketing and less apprenticeships offered now because of the cost. The man hasn't a clue

An utter pantomime

[Carole Hawkins @hawkins_carole]

The absolute revelation that Democracy in the UK is a SHAM as Jenrick's constituency should be holding a by-election they voted for a different party to the one he is now a member of - that would be the decent thing to do but of course we know Jenrick is anything but decent. The lengths corrupt men will go to in order to stay on the taxpayer funded gravy train and continue receiving the backhanders they can't live without.

[Robert Jenrick @RobertJenrick]

Shocking.

No one committed to our national security could possibly sign this off.

But Kowtow-Keir will.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Congratulations, President Trump!

This is a win for the world and a clear message to evil dictators everywhere.

[The Jackal… @ToonDazza]

Dear @realDonaldTrump - now you’ve taken out the socialist Venezuelan undemocratic PM, any chance you can pop over to the UK and do the same here?
@Keir_Starmer is a complete cunt.

Thanks muchly - Great Britain 🇬🇧
