In another world, she could have been in the White House on Friday 3 June, heading into the final third of a two-term presidency. Instead she was in Colmans, a chippy in South Shields on Ocean’s Road, a weathered North Sea boulevard half an hour east of Newcastle.
Hillary Clinton – the first female senator for New York, and a former first lady, US secretary of state, and Democratic presidential nominee – is now a private citizen, but she keeps a retinue fit for the powerful: four bodyguards perched nearby as I approached her, seated for supper and surrounded by local dignitaries. She was in north-east England to give the South Shields Lecture at the invitation of former Labour foreign secretary David Miliband – a close friend of hers – who has run the event annually since 2001.
“He’s too charming not to be dangerous,” she said of me, charmingly, as I took up Miliband’s seat for a moment to talk with her. Up close, Clinton is slight but formidable, with a practice of nodding her head slightly and slowly as you speak, offering encouragement without agreement. I had met Miliband recently in London, and he had described the US, where he now lives, as “not just polarised but Balkanised: it’s not that different groups hate each other, it’s that they think the other group is actually a threat to the country”.
If anyone understands that sentiment, it is Clinton, whom tens of millions of Americans have been engineered to hate over three decades of targeted character assassination by the US right.

The author... Gen-Z'er Harry Lambert.
I’d be surprised that she would have actually survived her first term in office.
And how the fire that took out an entire floor of the Rose Law Firm — including the records of Hillary Clinton's time at that law firm — got started is still something the MSM is less than curious about.
Close friends end up committing suicide. Why would anyone want to get close to this witch or her “husband”. They are grifters extraordinaire.
LOL!
“Harry Lambert” is either a very effeminate male, or a very butch chick.
This is astounding. For the SECOND time today, I am agreeing with a dumblecrat!1st was FJB.
And now her cabbageness!
She is RIGHT...the press is NOT doing their jobs. If they had, she would be mumbling from a jail cell in an orange jumpsuit.
Banner day, I tellz ya
The reporter who was in Phoenix and reported the “Tarmac” Meeting of Bill and the Attorney General during Hillary’s run just died young two days ago.
In another world, she'd be sitting in a prison cell...
Well remember the 4 years of Trump she survived without the stress of being president. There is no guarantee she’d have lived a full term as president with that level of stress. She’d have been stress-cackling far more than Suck Machine does. Until she stroked out one day.
You and the DNCCP need to give your media pals a raise.
I bet this gun grabber’s body guards are well armed.
She’s right. But not in the way she means.
The secret word for today is "Dystopia".
President Trump should have given Zdenek Gazda the presidential medal of freedom for filming and releasing that.
I don’t think cirrhosis is doing its job.
