Ghislaine Maxwell pleads the 5th before Congree - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 7.07pm post that Ghislaine Maxwell has pleaded the 5th before the US Congress.

Let's Get Real:

It seems from Ms Maxwell through her lawyer wants clemency before she talks. What kind of arrogance is that, she wants a pardon from President Trump, as she states that noth Trump and Clinton are innocent.  Let her rot in prison for what she has done, Trump would be mad to pardon her!

The Fate of Sir Keir Starmer - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 2.44pm post that the Cabinet has come out to support Sir Keir Starmer over the Epstein files and Peter Mandelson.

Let's Get Real:

If Labour was to get rid of Sir Keir it would be a political of mistake, he is the only one that this blog trusts with the Ukraine.  IN pure politics none of the candidates put their heads above the trenches, one because of her tax affairs and the other is seen as to close to Peter Mandelson, they showed no backbone and balls of steel, you need both to become PM, events boy events, remarks by a great Conservative PM when asked what could go wrong by a junior Minister ( they were mostly men, back in the day ) Thus Sir Keir will survive for now, but he is the Titanic taking on water, the Labour MPs will wait for a crucial by election in a few weeks time before taking action, gutless fools.

The King to help Police over allegations against former Prince Andrew - Update

BBC News: Reports that the King is very concerned about the allegations against Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former Prince Andrew, over his role as a Trade Envoy, and will help the Police with its enquiries.

Let's Get Real: 

Andrew has disgraced his family and humiliated the Country, the Royal Family has stripped Andrew of his titles, sent him siberia on the Sandringham Estate.  ONE does think Andrew should do the decent thing and go in to abroad for life.   At the least the King acted unlike the Labour Party who have an unpopular PM, they can't even get a coup right, the Conservatives are more ruthless, overly so it can be argued.  GOD SAVE THE KING.
