The misconduct this is based on, is him passing confidential information directly to Epstein, while he was a trade envoy for the UK. That’s what they can get him on for now. This is an option to get him in the seat, and ask him about his relationship with Epstein.
It’s a small start, but it is a start.
There’s plainly enough of Bannon doing the same in the files to arrest him as well. Your move DOJ… oh
@OP please add a little paragraph from the article to your OP. Thanks
Sticky posting this as this is pretty big news.
Added a bullet list of “what we know” from the article on The Guardian. The BBC also has extensive reporting on the matter:
Thanks! And thanks for all your contributions in recent days and weeks!
Thank you for your stewardship of this community. Glad to contribute.
I swear if this guy starts naming names I’ll stop drinking coffee and switch to tea.
I will eat a spotted dick.
If he does, I’ll stop microwaving my tea water.
King Charles says ‘law must take its course’
Damn, I don’t know this guy but it must take a lot to say that about your own family.
Friendly reminder that the last act of Biden was to pardon his family pre-emptively. They are still at the keeping up appearances phase.
If he were convicted and jailed, I’m sure that would be another matter, but this is is a very good first step and a sign together with Gates cancelling his talk yesterday, that the heat is increasing.
Charles has no real choice. Latest polling on how we (UK) feel about having a royal family is finally swinging in a positive direction (for those of us who want to see the lot of them gone) and he knows, or at least his advisers know, that anything other than what he’s quoted as saying could be step one on public opinion definitively turning against them as an institution.
does it tho? not every person would want the law bent or ignored for their family, especially if the laws of your country also focus on rehabilitation and it doesn’t have the death penalty.

Probably 99% of people would. Even Joe Biden abused his power to pardon his son. The ones who wouldn’t are exceptional.

who was railroaded on a series of false accusations, with known Russian agents who later admitted it.
They weren’t false allegations, he openly admitted to lying about being a drug user on a form 4473 when purchasing a firearm, and for tax fraud.
He had already repaid the taxes at the time the DoJ went after him, had already confessed to both, and was ready to plea like any other citizen charged with the same offenses when that plea deal was thrown out and the witch hunt began – and at no point do either of those offenses warrant a Congressional hearing wherein nude photos from your stolen hard drive get blown up to poster size and displayed for Congress and the entire world.
had already confessed to both
So you agree they weren’t false?
There was a plea deal.
Maybe it’s a regional thing.
You’re suggesting everyone in the UK is kinder and more ethical?
no
