These European prosecutions are going to get everything out. Andrew will spill the beans as soon as he thinks it will save his skin. And the files will be opened in a trial.
I think the Europeans realized that doing it this way is far better than leaking the files.

The British arrested a Royal, and we can’t even investigate a reality TV show host.

Our system is so busted.

This should be interesting.

Nigel Farage said Liz Truss’s budget was β€œthe best Conservative Budget since 1986”.

Robert Jenrick wanted the Tories to expel Liz Truss as a result of it.

This has to be the most bizarre tweet I’ve ever read! It’s like a fever dream of authoritarian horror. And I’ve battled Brexit for years and read many a lie, my favourite being about how Boris Johnson makes red buses from wine crates.

Mandelson proposed, and according to tax expert Dan Neidle, succeeded in executing an international tax dodge, with the help of Epstein, in order to fund the purchase of an otherwise unaffordable property.

The Kennedy Center has been in continuous operation for 55 years.

Trump and Ric Grenell destroyed it in one year by making it so toxic that nobody will perform there.

Now they have to shut it down like a Trump casino.

Liv Nervo speaks out against the man who tricked her into pregnancy Liv Nervo was six months pregnant when she discovered her partner had another family. When she tried to speak up, he spent years dragging her through the courts. We're helping her tell her story.

I've been working on this horrific story, about Matthew Pringle, the vastly wealthy businessman who tricked DJ Liv Nervo into carrying his child, and then sued her into the bargain, for several years. Very pleased finally to be able to share it with you.
