Starmer and his reactionary nationalist, Blue Labour government, admit that they knew about Peter Mandelson's close personal connections with the serial sex criminal, child molester, sex trafficker and friend of Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein. They could do little other than admit that, because pretty much everyone in the media, and political circles, also knew about it. The paper trail of those connections is extensive and detailed, much as with the several thousands of pages of the Epstein files that Trump first promised his MAGA supporters he would publish, on the basis that they contained a load of dirt on Democrat politicians, but which Trump, now, has sought to keep closed, as the dirt lands closer and closer to his own door, much to the chagrin of his MAGA supporters, who, already see him engaging in the same forever wars, as previous Presidents. There again, this is a President who is also a convicted felon, and who bragged openly about his ability to use his position to “grab women by the pussy”!
Mandelson himself has claimed that, despite his close personal relationship with Epstein, who he called his “Best Pal”, and whose luxury homes, and island he frequently visited, he had no knowledge, at the time, of Epstein's sex crimes and paedophilia. Well maybe, but if he is that unobservant, and unable to judge the character of people, was he really the genius political operator we have been told he was? And, of course, even after Epstein was caught and brought to book, we see his messages to Epstein, still defending him! That included visiting him after he had been gaoled.
Mandelson's lack of observation, and character judgement only seems to be equalled by that of Starmer, and his Blue Labour cronies. We are told that, of course, they knew about Mandelson's personal connections to the paedophile and sex criminal Epstein, but were so relaxed about it that, they gave him the job of US Ambassador anyway, because they simply believed what he had told them about that relationship, rather than doing any kind of due diligence before appointing him to such an important position. After all, it wasn't as though he had criticised the Zionist state for committing genocide was it?
And, after all, he was also close to, and had a good relationship to Epstein's other close friend, Donald Trump, another sex pest, convicted felon, and who openly boasted about his ability to grab women by the pussy. Nothing dodgy or untoward there, then, as far as Starmer and Blue Labour are concerned. After all, Trump is also, a big friend of the genocidal Zionist regime, to which Blue Labour is also indebted. So, the fact that the UK secret service had provided Starmer with the information about Mandelson, before he was appointed, could be easily ignored by them. There are none so blind as those that refuse to see, and, even, now, as all the information comes out, we have Blue Labour ministers coming out and denying that Starmer could have known, or should have known any of this, and we have the mouthpieces of the Zionist regime, from Labour Friends of Genocide, such as Luke Akehurst, bemoaning what a tough job Starmer has, and what a good fist he is making of it.
For Starmer and Blue Labour, who have committed to Trump and Farage's agenda of Brexit, and trying to increasingly isolate Britain from Europe, to turn it into an offshore annex of the US, having someone who has the same outlook as Trump, and who has those unsavoury personal relations, was obviously very tempting, as they sought to assuage the terrible damage they have been doing to the UK economy, by seeking to crawl further up Trump's arse, so as to gain some crumbs from the table. And, its not as though this is the first of these appointments of previously disgraced politicians. Jacqui Smith, who had to stand down as Labour Home Secretary, under Tony Blair, because of sleaze related to expenses, and her husband's use of porn, admitted herself that she was not fit to hold office. But, that didn't stop Starmer bringing her back into his government, not as an elected MP, but as an appointed peer! As with Rayner, the reasons these bunch fall out have nothing to do with politics, because there is no significant political differences between them. They have no principles to defend. These are truly a pathetic, decadent and unsavoury bunch of people, and the sooner we get rid of them the better.
Of course, our reasons for getting rid of them have nothing in common with the other unsavoury bunch of people, such as Tommy Robinson, Elon Musk, or Farage. Again, there seems to be a similar division that has little to do with politics as against personal interest and ambition. Musk who was Trump's best buddy, became his sworn enemy, himself referring to the incriminating contents of the Epstein files for Trump. But, Farage remains Trump's main man in Britain, keeping Trump's second eleven within the Blue Labour government in check. With Trump heading to Britain on Tuesday night, perhaps he will call on Epstein's other old friend, Prince Andrew. Of course, Farage will not want to cause too much of a ruction, as Trump offers beads to the natives, in return for a photo opportunity with the royals, arranged by Starmer, the King's errand boy. But, Musk has no such constraint, and nor does Tommy Robinson, who sees Farage as an impediment to his rise to power on a sea of Musk's billions. The laughable thing is, of course, that all of these people, proclaim themselves to be concerned about the plight of ordinary people!
The 150,000 people who turned up to support Robinson and Musk last weekend want to see Starmer and Blue Labour removed, only to put in its place something that would be even worse. We have absolutely no common ground with them, and contrary to the claims made about that demonstration by various commentators, it was not some congregation of generally moderate but misguided and misled people, but an attempt to rally the forces of the far right, which included far right activists from across the globe. The numbers appeared impressive, but, already, within it the usual divisions that blow apart such petty-bourgeois movements were apparent, as they could not present any single cogent set of ideas about what it was they were protesting let alone what their solutions might be.
It is probably near the high point of such movements, and if they can't do well in these favourable conditions for them, they are not going to in the near future. Robinson and Musk have no chance of replacing Farage, for all Musk's billions, and the reality is that, despite all of the hype, and despite the corrupt nature of the UK electoral system, Farage is unlikely to become PM. The way to ensure that is to ensure that a principled socialist alternative to the reactionary nationalism of Reform, and of Blue Labour is provided. The chance of doing that from within the Labour Party looks now to have passed.
Reform has replaced the Tory Party, and, in the process, destroyed the Conservative Party, as its social-democratic wing, is flooding towards the Liberals. But, the same is true with Blue Labour. It has sought to mimic Farage, and inevitably failed miserably. On top of that is all of the sleaze and corruption that is destroying it in the same way Boris Johnson's government was destroyed. In addition Blue Labour has ransacked the Labour Party itself, as it sought to do the bidding of the Zionists, and at the same time, rid itself of Corbyn and the Left. The best way of defeating Reform, and the reactionary nationalist agenda it and Blue Labour represent, is to fight them, here and now, and to build a clear, principled socialist alternative to them. The Blair-rights themselves know that Starmer and Blue Labour are doomed, but they seem paralysed and unable to move against him, because they have tied their fortunes to him. To move against Starmer risks, for them, opening the flood gates again of forces inside the party to their Left.
But, as the new Jeremy Corbyn Party becomes established, in coming months, even if only a fraction of the near 1 million people who have signed up to it, become active, it will be able to replace Labour in elections across the country, in the same way that Reform replaced the Tories. It will become obvious that a vote for Labour will just split the progressive vote, and risk letting Reform in. The Blair-rights, and the trades unions must understand that reality, hence all of the speculation about Burnham replacing Starmer, also, now fuelled by the media that must also see the reality of the likelihood that the next elections will be fought between Farage and Corbyn, and on present numbers, the odds favour Corbyn and the Left.
