GOVERNMENT RELEASES 1,500 PAGES OF CRINGE
Keir Starmer is plunged into fresh survival mode after 1,500 pages of explosive “cringe” messages and notes tied to Peter Mandelson’s disastrous appointment were finally dumped into the open, exposing embarrassing praise, possible private criticism from his own team, and a handwritten plea that he would “never regret” the pick. The scandal is not over: key papers are still being held back at Scotland Yard’s request as it probes alleged misconduct in public office, while No10 says Starmer will stay silent and let Darren Jones take the heat in Parliament this afternoon.

Wallis Simpson (1896)June 19, 2026
Simpson was an American socialite for whom English King Edward VIII voluntarily abdicated the throne. Their relationship caused a furor in England because the Church of England at the time did not allow people with living ex-spouses to marry, and, as king, Edward was also head of the church. Simpson's two ex-husbands were still alive when she married Edward on June 3, 1937, just six months after he relinquished his title. How did Wallis and Edward spend the rest of their lives together?

New Church DayJune 19, 2026
New Church Day refers to the Church of the New Jerusalem, founded in London in the late 18th century by the disciples of Emanuel Swedenborg. Swedenborg's followers believe that in 1757 there was a great judgment in the spiritual world, and that as a result the evil spirits were separated from the good and a new heaven was established. June 19 is the date on which Swedenborg's disciples met in 1770 to organize the New Church. Every year on this day, members of the New Church, called Swedenborgians, meet to conduct important church business and to commemorate the church's founding.
