On Question Time last night Reform’s Shadow Chancellor confronted centrist dad Sopel over his gushing support for a) Peter Mandelson’s initial appointment and b) Huw Edwards. Sopel was not pleased…
Jon Sopel has admitted to his News Agents co-hosts that the public appetite for his return to Bluesky is now so strong he’s even been confronted about it on the tube. Listen to the audio above for the full details…
Co-conspirators will know by now that Guido is the de facto campaign manager for Sopel’s return to the platform. He’s glad to see Jon has finally been challenged on it. Merry Christmas and a happy new year to the News Agents. And to the chap who yelled “Bluesky” on the train: get in touch. We owe you a free T-shirt…
Jon Sopel last posted to Bluesky a truly unconscionable nine months ago. If two Bluesky addicts who loved each other very much had shared bedchambers on the night Sopel last logged in, they’d now be coming to full term. Born into a world in which Sopel posts frequently and exclusively to Musk’s X, despite vowing to leave for good in November 2024 (he returned within 24 hours). In fact, he posted just two hours ago at the time of going to pixel…
A News Agents source close to Sopel has shared their latest tragic theory, claiming Sopel is “a bit confused about his phone”. Surely he won’t go a full year without dropping by?
Here we are again. Jon Sopel has now ignored his world-famous Bluesky account for a truly staggering eight months. When Guido began this series, he imagined one of two outcomes: either Sopel would return, or Guido would get bored of reporting on it. Neither has come to pass.
Sopel last posted to Musk’s X less than 24 hours ago, where he shared his thoughts on Celebrity Traitors. Those who fled Musk’s playground to the safety of Bluesky will have no idea Sopel thinks David Olusoga and Nick Mohammad have “not an ounce of common sense between them“. A shame…
Jon Sopel’s unannounced leave of absence from Bluesky has now reached an astonishing five months. He last posted on 7 March at 10:13am. At the time of going to pixel, that was around 3,678 hours ago…
By contrast, Sopel has shared ten posts on X in the last week, despite warning his devastated followers of his exit from the platform last November. Admittedly he promised to “call by occasionally”. His understanding of “occasionally” is clearly different to everyone else’s…
Guido fears Jon Sopel may have forgotten his Bluesky login details. Four long months have passed without an update from the political commentator on the platform…
It only took two and a half months for Allied forces landing on the beaches of Normandy to liberate Paris. Despite being absent from Bluesky for longer than it took to draft the Constitution of the United States of America he has managed to post on Musk’s X four times in the past 24 hours. Elon will be glad for added engagement…
To reset his Bluesky password Sopel can click “Forgot” on the sign-in screen. He should then receive an email with a reset code…
Speaking at his speech on how to achieve “progressive capitalism” Wes Streeting fired a dig and Andy Burnham:
“Bond markets are not bond villains and fiscal rules matter.”
