Food, France, friends, The Arsenal, technology and pets. Who needs more, bar an oddly placed fada? Used to live in N16, still drinks coffee in W1A as an International Snr. Technical Project Manager. En_croute elsewhere...
Too young, too square and too far away (Ascot!)
Loved the documentry.
His political/financial history should have been enough of a red flag, but his contacts in the US seemed useful and people wanted this to work, and it's bitten them badly.
Worse or as bad as Profumo? 3/3
I really suspect that as Mandelson is gay, they just ignored the sexual elements of the Epstein scandal/relationship - and didn't dig enough on the financial and government activities. 2/3

I doubt it. Vetting does not find out things well hidden.
He seems to have lied or at least least obfuscated to colleagues, and perhaps even himself. 1/3
Or was it just the quality of the comments!?

Musk equating #Adolescence (which was already in production) to the tragedy of Southport is like saying that he got the idea for reusable rockets from the #YoungSheldon TV programme. Clearly wrong, shit-stirring and, unfortunately, what we've come to expect from this USA administration these days.
