  1. “Starmer's go-to excuse: 'I was in the dark'. Don't believe it. He's deeply in the loop”

    by Jonathan Cook on Substack

    “From Jimmy #Savile to Peter #Mandelson, Starmer has followed a trajectory of career-enhancing ignorance. He knows far more than he lets on. It's the reason, after all, why he was knighted.

    [..]

    “This is one long trajectory of career-enhancing ignorance and incompetence. Does any of it sound even vaguely plausible?”

    We had a chap whose catchphrase was "Jim will fix it". (I see #Trump is presenting a corresponding phrase on his podium.)

    It didn't end well.

    Jimmy #Savile was a prolific paedophile

  3. @bullivant from Sam Freedman's book discussing #APCareHomes safeguarding failures surrounding care of children (girls age 12-16) in their #Wilmslow, #Cheshire care home.

    He reflects on the 'blatantly ill-qualified people' - such as owners #AmpikaPickston and her fiance - convicted Pimp, Pornographer and #WestHamUnited CEO #DavidSullivan, that #Ofsted licensed to own them!

    Would UK authorities allow people like #Savile, #HughHefner etc., to open girls care homes I wonder?

  4. In other news, I've just watched all episodes of the #BBC show #TheReckoning

    Jesus... #Coogan is a great impressionist and actor. But the things he did in those shows... ouchie.

    And they're based in fact of what #Savile actually did to vulnerable people.

  5. Three more hours left of Steve Coogan portraying one of the most horrific monsters in all of popular culture. #Savile feels like some important 'victim-lead' dramatisation.

  6. Why can't people get his name right? It's not Saville, it's #Savile
