THE HONEY/MONEY TRAP WHICH AFFECTED ALL OF US

I DON’T USUALLY JUMP ON BOARD WHEN I THINK THERE IS A WITCH HUNT GOING ON (ESPECIALLY WHEN IT SMELLS LIKE ONE THAT IS DESIGNED TO CHANGE THE NARRATIVE), BUT AS THIS EPSTEIN STORY ROLLS ON AND ON, IT’S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT THERE ARE MANY VICTIMS IN THIS SITUATION WITH LORD MANDELSON/EPSTEIN AND HIS EXTENSIVE WEB OF CRONIES – NOT PURELY THE GIRLS WHO WORKED FOR EPSTEIN. IT SEEMS THAT MANDELSON WAS SUPPLYING EPSTEIN TRADE SECRETS WHICH HE USED TO BET ON THE BANKING SYSTEM WHICH PARTLY CONTRIBUTED  TO THE BANKING CRASH OF 2008/2009. KEIR STARMER ALSO MENTIONED THIS IN PMQ’S BEFORE HE SAID ANYTHING ELSE THIS WEEK.  MANY PEOPLE LOST MILLIONS/BILLIONS, HOMES AND INVESTMENTS DURING THIS TIME. THE COMMONS DEBATE THIS WEEK HAS ONLY HIGHLIGHTED THE FACT THAT A FULL, RETROSPECTIVE FINANCIAL INVESTIGATION IS NEEDED.

AND AS MOST OF OUR PARTIES ARE FUNDED BY DONORS, IT’S ALL A BIT DUBIOUS NOW.  WHAT IS GOOD FOR BRITAIN?  NOT OUTSIDE LOBBYING / QUID-QUO-PRO REQUESTS / OR ANY MORE DELIBERATE GAMBLING ON THE STOCK MARKETS.  WHERE IS THE DECENCY?  THIS IS A DISASTER – MAYBE AN UNRECOVERABLE ONE.  OR IS IT A CHANCE FOR TOTAL REFORM?
