My Morgan broke down so I looked under the bonnet and saw a bat sitting on the engine.
He said “Hello Sir, you are a handsome man and very nicely dressed too".
I could see the problem...
Bat flattery.  Spilt my tea!

The dark humour circulating following today's arrest by the FBI of Ghislaine Maxwell is quite something. I particularly liked:
"Ghislaine Maxwell must look back fondly to a time when the phrase "you're about to get Epsteined" was something she'd be telling an underage girl on a private jet, rather than something she'd have said to her by an impassive CIA agent twisting a sheet round his fist".

Seeing as though her Father and her late partner took the cowards way out I'm waiting on the headline to appear now she has been arrested, you become the company you keep.
Randy Andy will be bricking it too.

I can only imagine the next stage. Someone in the US with an orange complexion and odd comb over tells the FBI to get over here and sort out the extradition. Some poor officer of the FBI has to walk into the big house and ask Her Majesty if they can take her son away as a suspected Peado. There is not going to be a queue for that job. Her Maj has a particular stare that may be used. This is going to be a chapter in that program you could not make up if it was fiction  But it really isn't good. Especially for those who were involved from the suffering side. 
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Boris's Father does a Cummings and flew out to Greece on Wednesday and publicised it widely over the ether Boris needs to get a grip of his father and advisor.  Father like son as the expression goes, this Tory arrogance is a wonderful thing until the next election  You couldn't write this stuff it's so crazy at the moment.. p.s. Stanley are famous for tools....

But how stupid is she for staying in America when she should have been aware of the risks. She should have cashed in everything she had in the USA and settled in some nice tax haven.

her late partner took the cowards way out............. I think the jury's still out on that one if you enjoy a good conspiracy theory. When you look at the rich and powerful people who surrounded Epstein during his life and his claimed knowledge of compromising information about many of them, his suicide does look questionable. The extremely dubious nature of the soft deal the prosecutor struck with him down in Florida, with immunity for all of his co-conspirators, both named and unnamed, certainly looked like there had been intervention from the very top. You have to ask yourself how it was possible to traduce such a major FBI investigation which the bureau considered was a slam dunk for Epstein to go away for life. Let's see if Maxwell decides to commit an apparent suicide too. As to her father, the joke at the time was that the reason he fell from his yacht and found himself Bobbing in the ocean was that he had asked a very dumb blonde on board to toss him off..... (well, it is supposed to be a humour thread).

I would to think Randy Andy gets extradited to prove his innocence or guilt. But I'll not hold my breath. My guess is she will plea bargin and dish the dirt.
