It’s a load of bollocks. He’s getting a harder time than people who are actually in the files. 

Mandelson more than helped Starmer become Labour leader and ultimately Prime Minister, by getting rid of Corbyn and the manner in which it was done.

Starmer knew about Mandelson and Epstein, but still rewarded him with the Ambassadors role to the US.

Everything Mandelson touches turns to shit.

Karma's a bitch.

He’s made a complete arse of it but who do Labour think they’re replacing him with? The ring wing press will be going all out for a GE so they can get Reform in. 

Burnham will be found a seat, become leader and lead them into 2029.

Rayner could be another option, but not with the tax thing hanging over her.

Andy Burnham might’ve saved the party but of course, they fucked him over too

Can't amend the above post, in reply to Kowalski, but the fall of Farage will be a great day.

It will come, it may well be with them in office, but his fall will be from a great height and when he does fall, others will fall with him.

Bring it on.

The labour party died with John Smith, there's nothing to save.

It was quite handy, him dying when he did. A bit like David Kelly and Robin Cook 

New Labour was always lucky like that

My biggest political regret is voting Labour in 97.  I was young and naive. Not that it would have made the slightest bit of difference if I had voted for the snp candidate, Labour were always winning the seat. The most depressing realisation of my political life was around 2002.  It came to mind that John Major is easily the best prime minister I've been around to see.  It still stands to this day.
