So, England has “rules” but the “rich” don’t have to follow them.
UK kicked a guy out of the royal family for their relationship with Epstein.
America put a guy in the Whitehouse.
I don’t think Andrew, or Mandleson, faced enough for what they’d done but America proves than the UK could have done less.
Acting like Buckingham Palace isn’t just one giant pederast convention.
Yep. That’s how it works here. Especially if your mummy ran the country.
I’m still not used to the cumbersome British royal family name, Monbattan-Windsor, but I’m at least glad there’s at least some consequences for association with Epstein, even if it is relatively small.
I assume you will be delighted to learn that “Windsor” actually is just a cover name for Saxe-Coburg and Gotha because in 1917 having a German house on the British throne didn’t seem right.
Edit: Totally forgot that Mountbatten is also just a German housename in disguise.
Yes but Mountbatten is anglicization of Battenburg, not Glücksburg. All those branches are intertwined, of course.
So scandalous that ze Germans have infiltrated the Royal Family! 🧐
I, too, have watched The Crown 😜
Weird that The Guardian has chosen a completely unique new convention for naming this guy in headlines. Everyone else would have their family name in the headline.
It’s so that the readers can tell who’s being talked about at a glance, not weird at all.
Normally I’d question why, since often the strategy is to plead the 5th and run out the clock with boring testimony.
But this arrogant ass, given his BBC interview, should be on prime time.
“Hands across the water.”
He’s going to be the sacrificial lamb…
