Meanwhile, the private investigations into Mandelson proceed; the rapidly rising energy prices precipitate another round of industrial disease; and Starmer has no latest trick to deal with the situation.
Public opinion walks on by.

‘ BREAKING: New US intelligence says Iran's leadership is still "largely intact" and not at risk of collapse "any time soon," per Reuters.
Details include:
1. A "multitude" of intelligence reports provide "consistent analysis that the regime is not in danger" of collapse
2. Intelligence also suggests that the Iranian government "retains control of the Iranian public"
3. Israeli officials in closed discussions also have acknowledged there is "no certainty" the war will lead to the Iranian government's collapse
4. The situation on the ground is being described as "fluid"
