In the Epstein files are references to a 9 year old girl from Brazil. References to some hideous things. Those men remain anonymous.
One thing I know is not one of those references is Keir Starmer.
Yet our media think Epstein will get rid of our PM because … bad decision

There’s a lot, lot worse to come over the Epstein files.
None of it for Starmer.
Media think they’ve got leverage over a bad decision. They haven’t.
Some Labour MPs think they can ‘punish’ Starmer. They can’t.

As always there are two outcomes for Starmer:
He leaves post
He stays in post
Based on the 40 or so other occasions he was expected to resign by the media. I think there’s a better than average chance he’ll remain in post.
I certainly hope so. He’s the best PM for years
