If what I’ve read is right, there was some scientific conference or other on another island nearby, and Epstein heard about it and invited him to give a talk, which he then did. So he basically went and gave an A-Level science lesson to him and his mates then fucked off.

That might also be Reddit doing their utmost to clear one of their heroes of any wrongdoing in the face of a smoking gun.

I know a few people on here watched the TV show based on the Post Office scandal (myself included).

Former Post Office boss Paula Vennells to hand back CBE.

I’d rather she kept the phony award but went to prison for a long time tbh along with all the other all other shameless fuckheads who knowingly ruined hundreds of innocent lives.

Send them to fucking jail. Simple as that.

It won’t happen of course.

I was thinking it’s just the start and all the cards will now start to fall and jail awaits for at least some.

I just thought it was interesting that the High Court ruled that the Horizon system was faulty back in 2019, but 5 years on the only reason anyone is doing anything about this is because ITV made a tv show out of it. I thought Jambo did a good job though…

For any crypto fans the Bitcoin ETF saga is absolute gold. The SEC just got their Twitter hacked and it’s causing lols and disbelief all round.

Yeah seems the way to get anything done, make an itv drama about it.

Reminds me, there maybe a film about this guy in the works, if you’re not aware of him I suggest checking out his channel. Really clued up ex trader who is the only person talking sense/ reality on the economy

Lost track of time so missed it but it sounds like he got a pasting (again).

Sunak is already a forgotten footnote in history. Future quizzes will prove this.

He’s terrible but not Liz Truss terrible. She has a slight chance of being remembered. Sunak has done nothing and will continue to do nothing.

Someone will still say this is all part of the plan when it’s just a shambles.

This interview is worth a watch / listen if you haven’t seen it. It’s how I found out about him

Don’t know how the YT algo is working with this one but after half watching that Gary Economics bloke my entire feed went from mostly skateboarding related content to stuff to make you paranoid/FUD spread to far right irritation - immigrants etc.

It wasn’t even subtle.

Yeah seen that one

YouTube loves sending people into right wing bs doesn’t it..
Maybe in that case it’s the audience Gary gets which might be a good thing if he converts some people as he’s very left wing in economic terms. Clutching at straws here

What the fuck have I just read.

Avoid if queasy

Christ that’s grim.

Yeah, I’m sure I heard about this ages ago, I guess the benefits thing is just a new angle to run it again and get some clicks.

Damn what a legend, her shows were something else and some amazing Dj sets back in the day. RIP

Just seen a Novara thing highlighting the ridiculousness of the house of lords, the blatant theft and hypocrisy etc etc. Stuff we kinda already know but never think to question it enough to gain enough anger to say something about.
Not enough people will see this clip because people are in bubbles etc but The house of lords needs to be ended.
That will never happen unless a mass revolt happens and that will never happen because we care only about our small lives and what affect us directly.
I’m just talking bollocks here obviously but it seems we have a power in ITV drama now, to a degree. That could go two ways… it takes off and film makers run away with ideas of taking down more corruption OR the top folks tie up channels with so much red tape that another expose can’t physically happen.

Maybe there needs to be public backing which can gain momentum in order to entice people in prgramming to take on a task of making the house of lords drama. Like a gonfundme, ha. It’s got to start somewhere.

Just hearing his name again is depressing enough.

I thought he was in ineligible to run for president due to the legal charges? Evidently not! What happens if he is found guilty?
