Prime Minister Keir Starmer during a Small Business Protections Bill meeting at number 10 Downing Street, London, May 19, 2026ONE of the most disgraceful episodes in the sordid history of the right-wing Labour Together faction was its hiring of professional snoopers to spy on and smear journalists looking into its misdeeds.

The central tenet of the in-control Labour Together, McSweeny, Josh Simons, Peter Mandelson, Keir Starmer – and now quite probably Andy Burnham – cabal is that they’re committed Zionists. Epstein was too.
