When Peter Mandelson was appointed last Dec, one cabinet minister told me he was “high risk, high reward”. With his history (forced to quit cabinet twice) there was acceptance that he could run into trouble. But did they expect his future to be in such serious doubt so soon?

Keir Starmer has shafted the Scottish Parliament’s budget process. The key moment when we decide on funding for our schools and hospitals. Scotland’s Government found out via social media. When called out on it, he responded with a lie. #PMQs https://t.co/1DcXVG45Rl

Banksy is a pillar of British culture. He’s been daubing walls for three decades. As soon as he satirises peaceful protesters being dragged through the courts for holding placards opposing Israel’s genocide, he faces being unmasked and prosecuted.
