Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
On HoL it's all about Epstein, Mandelson, Starmer, hating Lammy ? Or maybe we should start with Marina Hyde?
Like many of us, I take my lead from what I see or read, or hear others say. Leading to my feelings of sickening anger especially as we engage in intense conversations with people we love and trust.
One Israeli who understandably left Israel/Palestine many years ago, sends me essays I treasure. And where she now speaks of Starmer's need to save his soul not just a political career.
Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown was on the radio this morning. Talking what seemed excellent sense about what needs doing urgently and radically to clean-out our systems. Very persuasive. Until he offered a highly unlikely explanation why Keir Starmer was the man for these urgent jobs. As if the best doctor we have for the epidemic is also the man who told his subordinates to let Mandelson help spread the deadly infection. And while not top of Gordon Brown's long list of sicknesses and symptoms, at least he included the crucial issue of abused women and girls.
Which made me appreciate Marina Hyde even more. Because that's where she has continued to shout out.

My apologies to people who tried to reach the link I gave.
This is the correct link to the complete Guardian article.

(I'm unsure if - the most likely - it's my own ageing. Or partly, junk I bought: Windows 11 on a machine called Lenovo.)

Curious that the wellbeing of these young women is concerning the people who aren't outraged at the mass rape of vulnerable young girls by Pakistani rape gangs over decades in our own cities.

Cynthia Brown you don't know me and know little if anything of what sickens and outrages me. Nor about the years of my life when I worked in an agency whose remit included protection of vulnerable young girls.
If you are reading Marina Hyde and other journalists writing now, you will note in addition, many people's outrage at the trafficking of young women and girls across countries and continents by immensely rich and powerful men and their enablers; with no limit of religion, social class, or nationality.

I rest my case.
