Farage v Mahmood: Who is the Terminator?

Rachel Reeves admits breaking housing rules after failing to get a licence to rent out her Dulwich home, but Keir Starmer says an apology is enough.

A penny for Angela Rayner’s thoughts – the former deputy prime minister and housing secretary who resigned following a row over her tax affairs – she too claimed she was wrongly advised.

The prime minister and his chancellor face a nervous morning as opposition parties react.

LP Staff Writers

Writers at Lord’s Press come from a range of professional backgrounds, including history, diplomacy, heraldry, and public administration. Many publish anonymously or under initials—a practice that reflects the publication’s long-standing emphasis on discretion and editorial objectivity. While they bring expertise in European nobility, protocol, and archival research, their role is not to opine, but to document. Their focus remains on accuracy, historical integrity, and the preservation of events and individuals whose significance might otherwise go unrecorded.
