Trying to think of anything I would trust to that man. I wouldn?t even get him to hold my beer.


How he is/was a trade ambassador is a mystery. Why any charity has him as patron is a mystery. Why anyone invests in his hare-brained schemes is a mystery. Surely now people will see the emperor?s new clothes for what they aren?t?

Apart from knocking around with a (ex) nonce

Isn't the allegation essentially "non-consensual sex"? I honestly don't know if he's guilty of that or not, but it certainly sounds "wrong".

Quite an easy swap, he goes to the US to give evidence and in return Anne Sacoolas comes back to the UK to stand trial for manslaughter (US citizen who used diplomatic immunity to flee after she had hit and killed a motorcyclist, whilst she was driving on the wrong side of the road). I'm more bothered/shocked by the latter story.

No, so much more obviously which is why is being stood down from all royal "duties". You would hope that he is also being removed from the Civil List as he shouldn't be paid.

Totally agree with this.

Yet legally that's not a problem even if you're a teacher (as long as they aren't under your care)

What, specifically? That the Virginia Giuffre thing is just the tip of the iceberg, and that he was actually a part of a child sex ring?

His defence of ?I don?t recall that photo being taken? is breathtaking. He then goes on to say ?yes that is me? or something to that effect. And whether the girl is in his care or not, she?s 17 years old.


I also agree Maxwell is as deeply in it as him.

    • The Herne Hill Forum is raising money to replace the much-loved but decrepit wooden children’s trains outside Herne Hill station. The new train benches will be made of stainless steel with seasoned oak slats to sit on. The design is based on the Lord Nelson Class engines which passed through Herne Hill Station between 1926 and 1962 and the Pullman carriages in service at the same time. The trains will be painted green, the livery colour for Southern Railway in the 20s and 30s. Youngsters peering inside the carriages will glimpse some unexpected passengers: penguins commuting to work, an owl in a flap, a ghost on its way to Halloween, a fox and his friends, a heron migrating back to the hill and a bear checking tickets have all been smuggled on board. The carriages themselves will be clad with painted wooden boards for local artists and school children to repaint when necessary. The quality of the materials and the design should ensure the trains’ longevity but also come at a price. To cover the costs, the Forum has launched a crowd funding campaign and if all goes well, the new train benches should be installed by the spring.  Back the project here: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/herne-hill-train-benches (Admin, we know this is not ED but we didn't feel it was right for the Lounge so have put it here, given many ED-ers use Herne Hill. Apologies if it's in the wrong place!)
