Screenshot of an opinion article by Wes Streeting titled "Ignore the smears: I was never a close friend of Peter Mandelson. And I fully understand the lessons we must learn" with the subheading "I knew him but not well, and worry now that he thrived in our political culture. It was not just failed vetting: there was a failure of moral seriousness". Below that is a link saying "Streeting wrote off his re-election chances in WhatsApp exchanges with Mandelson". This is posted to Bluesky by @carolinepennock.bsky.social‬, adding "This is the funniest headline I seen in a long time. And bravo to whoever underlined the desperation with the juxtaposed link." @slurmsmackenzie.bsky.social then quote posts this, adding an edited version of the article with Yogi Bear with heading Ignore the smears: I was never going to steal that pic-a-nic basket and eat the delicious food Ranger Smith had made for lunch" and the subheading "Quite frankly it is insulting to suggest that Boo-Boo and I would do such a thing." The follow up link was also changed to "WhatsApp messages reveal that Yogi Bear messaged Boo-Boo to say "are you ready to steal the absolute fuck out of that pic-a-nic basket, Boo-Boo?"

I think the others are under selling how much of a self serving cunt little Wesley is.

While head of the student union as a student, sold out his members by supporting far higher student loans and fees. This has saddled multiple generations of kids with tens of thousands in unpayable and undischargable loans.

While as Heath Sectary rolled back care for trans kids, which has resulted in higher suicides for said kids. He was told this would happen before he rolled back the care.

The man would blend babies if he thought it would result in his own enrichment.
