Just that really. But will it wash with the DWP for UC purposes?

Was it ‘just resting in your account’? A la Father Ted, if anyone is old enough to remember.

Madlentileater · 01/02/2026 18:56

I'll have it OP

Well it was 20 years ago- how is one expected to keep track of every transaction? Completely understandable

Exactly! Such small change. So busy being busy and important. Let’s face it, bank statements are only really for the little people.

I haven't. Good thought. I found a few £75 notes under the seat of the car though 👍

I take it you have the same pal, surname starting with an ‘E’ in common?

I don’t know what you’re talking about, I have no recollection of any such money.

Ach what's the odd £75k between "best pals"

Yep dodgy as

I don't even bother with a sofa I just sit on £50 notes. One doesn't have room otherwise.

Just don’t light that Diptyque candle. Unless you are a member of the KLF.

Always white in the undies choices?

Of course. Binned after every single use. Maybe this could be my DWP defence?

What money? There was no money. I have no recollection of any money being paid into my bank account.

A likely story. The next thing you’ll say it was just resting in your account

Crushed23 · 01/02/2026 19:21

Can someone please link a news article? I have no idea what this is about and don’t live in the UK (I get the impression it’s national rather than international news). Thanking you. 😇

Chumpsaway · 01/02/2026 19:22

Is it for your osteopathy course again OP

Peter Mandelson

Jeffrey Epstein sent $75,000 to Lord Mandelson linked accounts, documents appear to show

Lord Mandelson says he has no record or recollection of receiving the sums and does not know if the documents are authentic.

Another Father Ted fan? No time for that! If it’s not on Panorama or File on 4, not interested.

I've been saying it since Peter Mandelson was first caught lying on his mortgage form, that he should be a Right Honourable anything is ludicrous.

There is nothing honourable about that man.

The idea that he was a fit person to represent the UK in the US was embarrassing in the extreme. What in God's name was Starmer thinking of?

You know the pensioners you see dozing over the newspapers in your local library? Because can’t afford to heat their homes. A bit like that. Except they have their own chairs and it’s absolutely disgraceful but we have to share benches.
