Doomscrolling, Indeed

Far from being a dead cat, Keir Starmer's announcement about a social media ban for the under-16s serves only to draw even more attention to his travails. It could not work without digital ID, for which the Minister is Josh Simons, whose attempt to frame people for offences under the Official Secret Act and the National Security Act is now being investigated by his own Cabinet Office. Why not by the Police?

Then again, the Police are conspiring with that same Cabinet Office, in contempt of Parliament, to block the release of files relating to the appointment of Peter Mandelson as Ambassador to Washington. As a member of the 2024 Labour intake and as a beneficiary of the 2025 Ministerial reshuffle, Simons is a double debtor of Mandelson.

The Labour Together crime syndicate was co-founded by Steve Reed of the local elections fiasco, but at least we have been spared the intended dry run for the "postponement" of the next General Election, when people will have the vote who until the day before had been deprived of any political perspective beyond the ideology purveyed by the schools and by the official media, schools in which they would still be obliged to stay another two years until they had reached the age of conscription.
