Mandelson

What is Mandelson’s real crime?

Wasn’t he often criticized for being politically on the side of the rich and powerful, even before any of his ‘breaches of trust’ were uncovered?

Well the architect of Blair’s New Labour didn’t breach any of my trust!
He once famously declared himself intensely relaxed about people getting filthy rich.
More recently, he vowed to work every hour, or something like that, to bring down Jeremy Corbyn - his own party leader.

The main interest in the current discussions is in spotting omitted elephants.

In 2009 Mandy, the Prince of Darkness FFS, revealed imminent changes in UK government policy to predatory financiers at a moment of post-crash turbulence. Not only could the damage to UK interests be incalculable, he advised his rich pals how to take advantage of this, not least by pressuring the government.

The coverage is remarkable. I’ve only tuned into BBC but it appears that only Labour ex-colleagues are allowed to offer contemporary personal justifications for his seemingly endless political buoyancy - especially his allegedly famed political skills - while lacerating, Jeffrey Epstein to duck significant political questions.
A meme is dedveloping, which says How Could We Have Known? When did he change etc.

I always saw Mandelson as a bad force; an enabler of everything a Labour Party shouldn’t be enabling.

It’s kind of striking that in commentary, notes are being struck that while piling it on about the victims of Epstein’s crimes - which currently are considered not to be Mandelson’s crimes - Mandelson’s actual principal crime - the one that is actually news - is nudged offstage.
It’s the association with Epstein, Epstein’s crimes, that bring government into disrepute. What a good shield!

There isn’t a legitimate reason for this emphasis, as until something is pinned on Mandelson, these are matters of association. Damning as of course that association is; but not yet criminal (but we will watch the space).

Bearing in mind that the UK govt just tried to prosecute two businessmen for passing on unclassified information to Chinese interests…

So where is the attention, the analysis of the information that was - surely illegally - passed on, who exactly would have got it and how would they have benefited from it?

Holding that thought, why Mandelson was so useful that he had to be installed as Ambassador to the US (though big doubts were expressed) is another question that seems is being handled using kid gloves.

We are assured he was just so good at his job; good for business, good for industry, good for banking. Hm… anyone else to be considered? Didn’t think so…

A most obvious other possibility springs to mind. Mandelson has always represented the moneyed classes; and the Labour government since Blair, despite having domestic governmental duties, is much the same.

In other words, the rich win when the public lose (which is all the time).

To the rich, Mandelson is value in this zero sum game - i.e. to those whom the government, including Labour, represent. Not the public.

After all if this criticism was levelled at the Tories, no-one would bat an eyelid. But the remaining scales falling from Labour supporters eyes could inflict a fatal wound, and not just for the next election.

The fallout extends to the relationship between UK governments and American finance and business elites. The happiness from across the pond at Mandelson’s appointment as Ambassador to the US tells us all we need to know. They are predators and the public are the prey.

Despite the ‘mysterious’ fifty grand paid into Mandelson’s account, I haven’t heard the words “Insider Trading” used once even as a comparison - wonder why that is.

Have we all been stupid - ambassadors tell inside stories, but are they usually senior members of government? Especially in such a major, time-critical department as government finance policy?

If the little fishes don’t wake up to this now, they never will.

Having been successfully scapegoated several times he can no doubt slime his way through. Mandy, that is.

It distracts from Sarah Ferguson and Andrew… but do keep an eye on how the Macron front is developing. Scandal in France could re-expose those dirty tricks played there. Charlie Hebdo, the concert bombing, sure, but why not ignore those and go for the whole DodiDiRitz rigmarole again?

Might be a hole below the waterline there your satanic majesties.

Kierst arama has the luxury of knowing he’s not going to lose a vote of no confidence, seeing as his MPs would be decimated, and then some. But he is certainly going to be couped, soon, by someone like Emily Thornberry (who will play the Rishi Sunak role until booted herself) and so on and so on.

It’s the Royal Family to keep focusing on.

The story about Billy Gates investing in some kind of supercondom had me chuckling. Probably ‘just’ his enthusiasm for eugenics rather than because he caught a VD off one of those island girls, but nice to see him being spitted ready for the roast.

This is a George Galloway dissection par excellence of the Mandelson story. Can be watched at 1.4 times speed if you’re short of time.

Apparently Mandelson told Epstein about Gordon Brown (another deviant (that gold sale is starting to really stink)) retiring 8 hours before he announced it.

There is also mention of Bliar. They talk of the money he is making (£11 mil from Kazakhstan for one), overall in excess of £30 million a year yet they say that Bliar isn’t pocketing all of this himself.

Lol who else’s name keeps cropping up

They’re also bleaching out references to the Rothschild’s. 100’s have disappeared already.

Chagos islands “deal” looking EXTREMELY fishy

Sneer Starmer chooses a guy who has twice been dismissed from public office for at the very least malfeasance in public office, to be appointed ambassador to the US. Good on Andrew Bridgen. It remains to be seen if the former director of public prosecutions who declined to prosecute Saville despite strong evidence, will acknowledge this email.

Great expose here from Alex Krainer!

Alex Krainer’s Substack

London’s blind panic

The Trump administration may be gunning for a total takedown of the pathogenic British establishment. UK’s color revolution playbook may be coming home to roost.

[Originally published at I-System TrendCompass] As I discussed it in last week’s TrendCompass report, the recent release of Epstein files caused quite a panic in the ranks of UK’s political establishment, prompting the Prince of Darkness, Lord Peter Mandelson to resign from the Labour Party and from the House of Lords.



Yes, that’s Elon Musk and Sir Keir Starmer is right to be scared. Bear with me…

Lies on top lies and sign language

Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer faced the public and offered a profuse apology to Epstein’s victims:

I am sorry. Sorry for what was done to you. Sorry that so many people with power failed you. Sorry for having believed Mandelson’s lies and appointing him. … It had been publicly known for some time that Mandelson knew Epstein. But none of us knew the depth, and the darkness of that relationship.

It was awkward and painful to hear. Interestingly, BBC’s footage of Starmer’s speech featured a sign language interpreter - a throwback to the bad old days of the Covid19 pandemic when sign language interpreters were included without fail, as a visual distraction whenever and wherever public officials had to lie through their teeth and mislead the public.


Picture background

Gay old time: Mandelson and Starmer in better times

Of course, Starmer too, was lying. His pretence that he appointed the Prince of Darkness as Ambassador to the U.S. because he believed his lies is simply inconceivable.

“It’s usually small boys!”

Even for much less important appointments in government, the official vetting process is extremely rigorous, conducted by multiple agencies, reviewers and interrogators. No stone is left unturned to make sure that the “right” candidate is selected. Craig Murray , who was appointed as Ambassador to Uzbekistan in 2002 (a bit less important than Ambassadorship to the U.S.), described the process, which was conducted by MI5.

Murray explained that the interviewing officer spent “four months of his life doing nothing but investigate me full time.” Incidentally, this officer told Murray, regarding his “extensive” love life, that it “makes a change to be looking at relationships with women in a Foreign Office case. It’s usually small boys!” Sir Keir Starmer would have us all believe that he appointed Lord Peter Mandelson as Britain’s Ambassador to Washington simply because in his innocence, he believed Mandelson’s lies. He was deceived, you see. We were all deceived. Mistakes were made.

Always looking for the brightest and the best

The truth is that in our Empire of Lies, compromised individuals are the most favored candidates for key positions of power. The obvious benefit of recruiting such individuals is that they are easily controlled. This is not unique to Great Britain. In 2017, in the aftermath of the “Pizzagate” scandal, FBI whistleblower Sibel Edmonds recounted what she learned from an FBI colleague who worked for four years (1993-1997) running background checks on candidates for federal judges. He said that individuals with most “skeletons in their closets” were systematically appointed to become federal judges. Those with unblemished records were not considered.

Sir Keir Starmer is himself the product of this same process: a pliable, compromised sock puppet in the service of oligarchic power which is deliberately concealed from view. When such low-calibre, compromised individuals find themselves in positions of power, they’ll do whatever their superiors demand, without asking too many questions.

Epstein files are only the tip of the iceberg

Sir Keir proved his loyalty to the party and to the establishment particularly between 2008 and 2013 when he was the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). During that time, the “grooming gang” scandal had gained notoriety in the U.K. As the British public learned, or should have learned, between the 1980s (some say 1970s) and early 2010s, gangs of men of Pakistani and Bangladeshi descent systematically groomed, drugged and serially raped girls from disadvantaged backgrounds in English towns across the country.

The abuse was reported in 50 towns and cities, including Oxford and Bristol. Hundreds of thousands of English girls were targeted, at least 15,000 of them were raped and a number of them were murdered in what was described as, “the biggest peacetime crime and coverup in British history.” For some reason however, this crime was being systematically covered up at every level of the British system, including the media, and Sir Keir played the key role in the coverup.

Almost as soon as he became DPP, the Crown Prosecution Services imposed reporting restrictions on the case, shielding the criminal gangs and their members from public scrutiny and from prosecution. Nine months into the job, Starmer inexplicably dropped all charges against members of the notorious Rochdale grooming gang, in spite of incriminating DNA evidence and hours of video testimony collected by the investigators. The rapists walked free and the case was closed.

Former Prime Minister Boris Johnson , another vulgar product of the Empire’s system of negative selection, said that money spent on investigating child abuse crimes was money “spaffed up a wall.” For their part, the British media have worked incessantly to shove the grooming gangs scandal down the memory hole and stigmatize anyone who complained about it as a racist and Islamophobe, showing zero concern about the gangs innocent victims.

Enter Elon Musk

The whole story might have fallen into oblivion if it wasn’t for the Trump 2.0 administration and Elon Musk . Soon after Trump won the 2024 elections, Musk started posting pointed jabs at the British establishment in general and Sir Keir in particular. Here’s how Euronews commented on the scandal last January:

A raft of erratic social media posts by the billionaire tech mogul has put a decades-long child sexual abuse scandal back under the political spotlight.

Elon Musk has reignited a political debate in the UK around the crimes of gangs of men who systemically groomed and raped children in English towns over several decades.

In a flurry of posts on his social platform X, the billionaire has taken aim at senior UK Labour figures, claiming prime minister Keir Starmer was “deeply complicit in the mass rapes in exchange for votes.”

He also called safeguarding minister Jess Phillips a “rape genocide apologist” and called for her to be imprisoned.

One of the many posts read, “Starmer must go and he must face charges for his complicity in the worst mass crime in the history of Britain.” Another: Starmer “repeatedly ignored the pleas of vast numbers of little girls and their parents…” And another: the Prime Minister was “deeply complicit in the mass rapes in exchange for votes.”

Should America liberate the people of Britain?

But perhaps his most interesting post was a poll, asking his 234 million followers the following question: “America should liberate the people of Britain from their tyrannical government.” It was a yes/no question to which 58% of his respondents answered in the affirmative.



At the time, I enjoyed Musk’s posts but I thought they were little more than mischievous trolling. By today I suspect there was a lot more to them, especially the statement in Musk’s poll, which could explain the blind panic in the ranks of Britain’s political establishment. It may also explain their vicious crackdown on free speech, especially against those who are less than enthusiastic about the uncontrolled immigration.

Deathly afraid of its own people

British “elites” have truly dug themselves into a deep hole. They’ve been poking the Russian bear and angered it. They gutted Britain’s economy with the hare-brained net zero policies. They went to war against their own people, arresting over 12,000 in 2025 for social media posts. The figures below are for 2023:

It is still more interesting to consider these figures in relative terms - the number of arrests per 1 million inhabitants:



British establishment fears the British people

Sir Keir seldom misses the chance to extol Britain’s complete devotion to free speech, but, as Stalin used to say: when the British say something, they actually mean exactly the opposite. The truth is that apart from Belarus, Britain is the world’s undisputed champion of censorship and repression of free speech. One would almost think that the establishment is deathly afraid of their own people.

Master alienates the Blaster

On top of all this, the British government has managed even to lose their close ally, the United States. That “special relationship” was perhaps their main assurance, allowing them to misbehave so arrogantly and so confidently on the world stage.



And now, even the tide of public opinion at home is turning against them. I suspect that if Elon Musk ran his poll about liberating the British people today, the proportion of positive responses would probably be substantially higher than 58%.

These circumstances explain the unconvincing, “it was the Russians,” counter narrative in a desperate attempt to deflect public anger toward the bad, no good, evil tyrant from the East. If only they could somehow convince the British people to go to war against Russia and sacrifice their children en masse, the London cabal might still have a fighting chance to rescue themselves and their pathogenic system.

Why oh why (do you like that?) does Krainer push the ‘Asian Grooming Gangs’ story and ignore the (far more significant for the string-pullers?) Heath, Jean-Charles de Menezes, Tomlinson and Saville stories? And supporting Cressida Dick over the Sarah Everard murder? Starmer was up on his hind legs in the HoC at the time blaming the tweedle-dee party for the failure of vetting which allowed the serial abuser cop to ‘slip through the net’.

Is it because Krainer is in thrall to a) Elon Musk or b) social media that he’s willing to overlook most of Starmer’s little complicities?
